Lighthouse Weather Reports
British Columbia lighthouses provide scheduled marine weather reports every three (3) hours from 03:30 to 21:30 Pacific Standard Time (PST) – 04:30 to 22:30 Pacific Daylight Time (PDT)
Lightkeepers also provide up-to-the-minute weather information on request. Call the lightstation on Marine channels 16 or 82A, or phone the nearest Coast Guard (CG) station and request an up-to-date marine or air weather report from a lighthouse.
Online Lighthouse Weather Reports:
All Lightstations: Environment Canada > Marine Info > Forecasts > select a Coast (i.e. Pacific – North Coast) > select a Region (i.e. Hecate Strait) > from the Tabs select Weather Conditions > then near the bottom select “Lightstation Reports” (they sure do not want you to find them!) Short link.

The Canadian government has a webpage of weather-related web addresses called Related Links and Resources which is very comprehensive. If you cannot find it there then it is probably not publicly available.
