Victoria, the capital of British
Columbia, is located on the southern
tip of Vancouver Island, the largest
of the province's some 6,500 islands.
The city, whose metro area now exceeds

a fur-trading outpost named Fort Victoria,
in 1843.
Significantly, it was founded in March.
In most areas of Canada, March is not
the time of year...
