Why Wouldn’t Ya’s owner and creator Rob Tuer was born and raised in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada. Rob’s passion for extreme outdoor adventure and a lifetime of advocacy for reducing harmful ecological impacts across the world has taken him and his company to new heights.

Rob shares his passions with others through his work as an instructor in outdoor education - he has spent over twenty-five years teaching youth about the importance of the “Leave No Trace” approach to enjoying our outdoors and the power we have to reverse the impact of human activity on climate change.

When he isn’t in the office, Rob is working toward his goal of visiting every national park in Canada and the USA to help raise awareness about the importance of our environment and our capacity to conserve it for future generations to fall in love with the same way he has.

Together Rob and the Why Wouldn’t Ya Board of Directors have developed a clothing line that will make you and all your friends want to join them in this great cause. Their goal is to build a better future for all to enjoy, and to bring you along for the ride so that the next time you have an opportunity to get outside and explore the natural beauty that surrounds us – you’ll be sure to say… Why Wouldn’t Ya!

As a member of the Why Wouldn’t Ya Board of Directors, I too share a passion for raising awareness about the importance of our crown jewels – the National Parks. Our National Parks system provides us so much more than breathtaking scenery and a deep connection to our roots as human beings and our connectedness to the earth. I envision a world where we work hard to ensure that we don’t take our relationship with the planet for granted, and promoting the historical significance of our National Parks system and the role it plays in keeping us tethered to the planet literally means the world to me. 

When I’m not exploring and advocating for our National Parks with Rob, you’ll find me snowboarding on the side of the nearest mountain. My passion for snowboarding and extreme outdoor adventure continues to take me to new heights. 

Join us in the mountains and find your next unforgettable experience – let’s write this story together.
