February is #BlackHistoryMonth... #DYK Deas Island, in the Lower #FraserRiver, is named after John Sullivan Deas (1838 - 1880), a pioneering black man who also founded the salmon canning industry in BC? Deas Island is where he started his business in 1871. bcblackhistory.ca/john-sulli…

Our deep sadness and condolences over the deaths of the Indigenous children whose remains were found at the site of the former Kamloops Residential School. The truth of deep wrongs, and the ugliness, must be confronted for there to be a path forward.: fraserbasin.bc.ca
