    Hard work, making your own path in life, reinvesting in your company, utilizing new technologies, taking care of family, others and the people who helped you, and immigration building a new country. Good story Gus, how many times has this story been told, with different names and different locations? Will these type of stories be told in the future?

    Ed Jackson started out in Penticton on land rented from the Natives with a wheelbarrow, went on to build Amix Salvage which was recently bought out by Simms. The Jacksons kept their heavy lift operation.
