British Columbia

British Columbia (French: la Colombie-Britannique, C.-B.) is the westernmost of Canada's provinces and is famed for its natural beauty, as reflected in its Latin motto, Splendor sine occasu ("Splendour without Sunset (Diminishment)").

The capital of British Columbia is Victoria. The largest city is Vancouver, Canada's third-largest metropolitan area and the second-largest in the Pacific Northwest.
