Steveston is a tiny piece of Metro Vancouver, British Columbia that has managed to retain its genuine fishing-village charm despite its hectic past. The story is familiar: a small village strikes gold and becomes the hub of a major industry, luring in thousands of laborers from around the world. The bubble bursts, the workers go home, and the town is left to reinvent itself or disintegrate. In the case of Steveston, salmon was big business for nearly 100 years. When the last cannery was shuttered in the 1990s the characteristic fish-processing smell lifted and revealed a quaint, quiet town fronting the Strait of Georgia, sitting on the fringe of Vancouver, and perfectly positioned for a tourism boom. The town is no secret among Vancouverites, who flock to the boardwalk and waterfront park in summer for sun, fresh fish, and kite flying.
