The History of Port Mann is intimately tied to the History of Greater Vancouver - and it's even more relevant today!

For anyone interested in transportation, growth, density and
development issues in Greater Vancouver (including the
transportation tax plebiscite), my walk will provide fascinating
perspectives on such issues...

Participants will enjoy an informative guided tour of the
historic 1910 Port Mann Town site through geology, pre-contact and
historic times. It's based on my ongoing research into the history of
Port Mann. It is a great, transit accessible family and friend friendly
walking tour for everyone to enjoy.
