Investors and entrepreneurs are gravitating toward the rapidly growing city of Coquitlam, lured by affordable real estate and green field development opportunities, convenient road, rail and river transportation links, and a welcoming attitude to new business. No longer a quiet bedroom community to Vancouver, bustling Coquitlam is a thriving metropolis with a population of 125,000 – a number predicted to nearly double in the next 20 years.

Moreover, infrastructure The Port Mann Bridge and Highway 1 upgrades stand to make Coquitlam even more accessible. “The Port Mann Bridge and Highway 1 improvements, the new King improvements, the new King Edward Edward overpass and the expansion of the SkyTrain to Coquitlam with the Evergreen Line – these are all real game changers,” says overpass and the expansion of the Mayor Richard Stewart.

But municipal finances do not receive the same degree of public scrutiny as more senior governments. This can pose a problem for taxpayers and voters who want to understand how their municipal government performs, especially compared to other municipalities. To help create awareness and encourage debate, this report provides a summary analysis of important financial information for 17 of the 21 municipal- ities in Metro Vancouver, spanning a 10-year period (2002–2012). The intention is not to make an assessment of any municipality’s finances—for instance, whether taxes or spending are too high or whether municipal governments produce good value for taxpayers.

  • Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and Written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; Updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013
    Early Trail Building in the New Colony of British Columbia — John Hall’s Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013. A recent “find” of colonial correspondence in the British Columbia Archives tells a story about the construction of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails between 1862 and 1864 by pioneer settler John Hall. (In 1870 Hall pre-empted 160 acres of Crown Land on Indian Arm and became Belcarra’s first European settler.) The correspondence involves a veritable “who’s who” of people in the administration in the young ‘Colony of British Columbia’. This historic account serves to highlight one of the many challenges faced by our pioneers during the period of colonial settlement in British Columbia. Sir James Douglas When the Fraser River Gold Rush began in the spring of 1858, there were only about 250 to 300 Europeans living in the Fraser Valley. The gold rush brought on the order of 30,000 miners flocking to the area in the quest for riches, many of whom came north from the California gold fields. As a result, the British Colonial office declared a new Crown colony on the mainland called ‘British Columbia’ and appointed Sir James Douglas as the first Governor. (1) The colony was first proclaimed at Fort Langley on 19th November, 1858, but in early 1859 the capital was moved to the planned settlement called ‘New Westminster’, Sir James Douglas strategically located on the northern banks of the Fraser River.

  • Community Climate Action Plan
    Our Kelowna as We Take Action Kelowna’s Community Climate Action Plan June 2018 kelowna.ca/imaginenext CITY OF KELOWNA Our Kelowna as We Take Action Letter from the Future May, 2040 I’m writing this to you as I watch the spring rains that have been pouring out of the sky for the last three days. This is pretty normal for this time of year, but I find myself thinking about how, 22 years ago when I was a kid, this kind of weather seemed so unusual. I remember waking up one May day in 2017 to find our house surrounded by water while my parents were trying to keep it out of our basement. The news that night said the flooding was a “once in a 200-year event.” These days, though, it seems like we’re getting these kinds of major weather events every few years. Our winters are shorter with less snow, and followed by incredibly wet springs with hotter, drier summers and more wildfires and pest problems than before. But thankfully, a lot of improvements have been made over the last 20 years and we’re better able to cope with them. One of the noticeable shifts is how we use our land. Much of Kelowna’s growth over the last 20 years has been concentrated in our five urban centres. This has created compact neighbourhoods with great mixes of residential, commercial and recreation space. People don’t have to travel long distances to go between the places where they live, work, shop and play so it’s a lot easier to get around by walking, biking or transit than it was when I was a kid.

  • A Brief History of the Transfer System in British Columbia
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE TRANSFER SYSTEM IN BRITISH COLUMBIA The following information has been prepared as a brief history of important events in the development and maintenance of the post-secondary transfer system in British Columbia (BC) over the last six decades. The information is presented in point form and in chronological order and includes several points related to the expansion of the post-secondary system and hence the transfer system in BC over that time period. The bullets referring to this expansion, which led to a highly differentiated post- secondary system in which transfer became a crucial factor, are listed in bold. Please note that the list of changes in the post-secondary system is not meant to be exhaustive and, therefore, does not include all openings, closings, mergers, and name changes of institutions in BC. The information below should be useful to anyone wanting to develop a better understanding of the history of BC’s well-developed transfer system and the reasons we have created such a system. Both newcomers to BC post-secondary education and long-term employees will hopefully be able to learn from the list of historical events presented below. The list of important events has been compiled by reviewing a number of literature sources that have dealt with the historical development of BC’s post-secondary and transfer systems.
