Abstract

Many Canadian cities which are now flourishing urban centres had their origins as single-industry communities. British Columbia had many such communities, at all stages of its history; Cariboo and Kootenay mining towns, the logging camps of the Pacific Coast, the sawmill and pulp mill towns of Vancouver Island and the southwest mainland, the salmon canneries and fishing villages dotted along the coast and major rivers.
