History

Vancouver sits on the unceded traditional territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations; the city grew rapidly after the 1886 establishment of its port and later the transcontinental railway.

Conservation

Stanley Park and local marine programs prioritize habitat protection and species monitoring—stay on designated paths and minimize single-use plastics to reduce impact.
