Area B (Suskwa/Kitwanga/Kispiox): Highway 37N about 2.5 km south of Gitanyow at Kitwancool Access Road, looking north
Few places in northwestern British Columbia have a history as closely tied to transport through the Skeena River corridor as Area B. This rural electoral area of the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine lies in forested country between the coast and the provincial interior. Highway 16, part of the Yellowhead Highway, is a principal route across the northwest, following a communications corridor also used by the railway along the Skeena. The Skeena watershed is the traditional territory of several First Nations, and the river remains central to the region’s salmon runs and Indigenous food traditions. Mixed woodland and long road distances give this part of Canada a distinctly remote character.

British Columbia has served as Canada’s Pacific frontier since joining Confederation in 1871. This vast western province extends from the Pacific coast across the Coast Mountains and interior plateaus to the Canadian Rockies; these coordinates lie in its sparsely settled northern interior. The Fraser, British Columbia’s longest river, drains a large part of the province before reaching the Strait of Georgia. First Nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain integral to communities throughout the province. Victoria, on Vancouver Island, is the provincial capital, while Vancouver is its largest city and a major Pacific port. Forestry, mining, fisheries and outdoor travel all reflect a terrain where waterways and mountain corridors matter.

Canada has served as a frontier between French and British colonial powers since the 17th century. The world’s second-largest country extends from Atlantic shores to the Pacific and Arctic coasts, with the Canadian Shield, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River shaping its vast geography. First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples are central to Canada’s identity, while Ottawa’s Parliament Hill represents its federal political life. French remains the official language of Quebec, adding a distinct dimension to the country’s public culture. See how Canada connects across North America by browsing webcams in neighbouring regions.
