Pioneering Fort and City Growth on Vancouver Island
The narrative recalls 1848 when Chief Factor James Douglas built a fort at Camousun Harbor, around which Vancouver Island's early city grew. The fort ruled British Columbia until 1867 when Canada took over, while a small brick store served miners heading to the Cariboo, Omineca, Cassiar, and Klondike rushes. Today the brick building remains as a warehouse amid modern towers, symbolizing the old order versus American development.

Bellegle plan to warm eastern Canada by damming Labrador current
Eastern Canada and New England could gain Virginia-like warmth if a Quebec to St John’s railway damming the Labrador current redirects the Arctic flow.
