Come and join us for an Educational Tour of the Gulf of Georgia Cannery in Steveston.
The Gulf of Georgia Cannery is located in the historic fishing village of Steveston, the largest commercial small-craft fishing port in Canada. Built in 1894, the Cannery was once the largest of its kind, and was known as the “Monster Cannery”. Today the Cannery is the last among more than 15 canneries that once stood on the Steveston waterfront. Now a national historic site, our exhibits showcase the history of Canada’s West Coast fishing industry.
