Anyone keeping bees in B.C. must be registered. It is also a legislated requirement to register the apiary locations where bees are kept. You can register by completing an online form hosted by the Government of British Columbia. More information about bees and bee-related programs (like suggested bee forage or bulletins related to the transport and sale of bees) are also available from the government website.
