A Jazz de Havilland Dash 8-400, registration C-GGDU performing flight QK-8369 from Fort Saint John,BC to Vancouver,BC (Canada) with 66 passengers and 4 crew, was on final approach to Vancouver's runway 08L when the crew initiated a go around at about 1200 feet AGL after selecting the gear down and receiving three red lights indicating the gear was not down and locked. The crew worked the related checklists and performed an alternate gear extension, which resulted in three green lights indicating the gear was now down and locked.
