Merging of ski resorts, monopolization and changes in ownership structures: the case of Whistler.

Abstract
 This chapter discusses a historic profile of corporate ownership of mountain resorts in North America before focusing on the changing ownership structure of Whistler's mountain operations (British Columbia, Canada). Reports in the media are then drawn upon, including perspectives from representatives of the Whistler community and Vail Resorts' corporate managers, to trace reactions to the impact of Whistler Blackcomb's change in ownership. The discussion addresses the challenges of 'corporate-community relations' with a particular focus on the influence of new corporate culture on Whistler's long-standing record of excellent corporate-community engagement.
