Preserving Legacy: The Conservation Journey of North Pacific Cannery
The North Pacific Cannery’s association with the West Coast fishing industry is remarkable for its diversity and lengthy duration. In 1985, the North Pacific Cannery was designated a National Historic Site by Parks Canada to commemorate the role that the industrial fishery played in the economic and cultural development of Northwestern British Columbia, Canada, and the continent. The North Pacific Cannery is a very complex site with many levels of heritage values and physical constraints.
