BC-GVancouver01.jpgMission

The District of Mission is located in British Columbia’s lower mainland.  The Municipality governs not only the Town of Mission but the surrounding district.

 

A little Governmental History

In 1892 the area from the Stave River to Hatzic Lake was incorporated.  In 1922 the Village of Mission was incorporated.  In 1957 the Village became the Town of Mission.  On November 3, 1969 the City and the Municipality of Mission amalgamated to become the District of Mission.

 

Mission has a population of over 33,000 residents.  Mission is shown in yellow in the upper right of the bottom map to the left.

Mission is the site of Canada’s first train robbery and BC’s first rail link to the United States.  Mission is probably best known for Mission Raceway Park.  From March through October you will find thousands of car and racing enthusiasts traveling to the raceway.

 

Shopping

There are three main shopping areas in Mission; the historic downtown, the Lougheed Highway just west of downtown, and the Junction, on London Avenue (Highway-17).  The Junction used to be an industrial area by the race track but have changed to a commercial area in recent years.

 

 

Where is Mission?

Mission is on the north side of the Fraser River in the eastern end of the Lower Mainland of British Columbia.  It is most easily found by taking the Trans-Canada Highway-1 east to Exit 92 – Sumas, WA / Abbotsford / Highway-11 exit.

 

Turn north on BC-11 going 6.8 mi (11 Km) to the bridge over the Fraser River.  1.7 miles (2.7 Km) further you will come to the Lougheed Highway.  Turn right and in several blocks you will find yourself in Downtown Mission.

 

Fishing

Mission has long been known for its fishing.  Sixty Percent of all the Salmon in British Columbia migrate up the Fraser River right by Mission.  If that isn’t enough fish for you then you should also know that Mission has long been known as the Sturgeon Capital of the world.
