The Guard: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

The Guard is shot in the scenic wilderness of Squamish, British Columbia. A character-driven ensemble series, it focuses on the lives of four imperfect, offbeat and sometimes difficult, but heroic Canadian Coast Guard Rescue specialists who face danger daily out on the Pacific Ocean, saving lives as they search for meaning in their own. This gripping, high-action drama series stars Steve Bacic as Duty Captain Miro Da Silva, Jeremy Guilbaut as Rescue Specialist Andrew Vanderlee and Claudette Mink (Season 1) and Sonya Salomaa (Season 2-3) as First Mate Laura Nelson. The crew is rounded out by Carly Greig played by Zoie Palmer.
