The birthplace of British Columbia?

Fort St. John may have a quibble with this young whippersnapper! Fishhead64 02:25, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The reason Fort Langley has been called the "birthplace of BC"' is described in the following way on Fort Langley's website: "On November 19, 1858, the actual proclamation of Crown Colony status took place in the Big House at Fort Langley. Thus Fort Langley was proclaimed the birthplace of B.C."[1] Sunray 14:52, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Historic Site vs. Village?

Perhaps a differentiation should be made between Fort Langley National Historic Site and Fort Langley, British Columbia? Both could really use some work. -- TheMightyQuill 14:15, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with both your points. Sunray 14:52, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I created a Fort Langley page that redirects to this page, and then I put {{For|the historic fort|Fort Langley National Historic Site}} at the top of this page. -- Usgnus 21:50, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

History section

I came to the page to add see if there is information for me to add onto the Skwxwu7mesh page. There was lots of trade between the two when it got set up, but that's not what I'm looking for. I just wanted to comment that the history seciton is really hard to read. It doesn't run coherently, or well, in a linear timeline. I wish I could help, but I really know little about Fort Langley (and I actually wanted to learn more! haha). Just wanted to offer some feedback! Thanks!
