British Columbia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | British Columbia, often also referred to as B.C. or BC (French: 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 diminishment"). |
 | | British Columbia is bordered by the Pacific Coast on its west, by the American state of Alaska on its Northwest, and to the north by the Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories, on the east by the province of Alberta, and on the south by the states of Washington, Idaho, and Montana. |
 | | Population in British Columbia continued to expand as the province's mining, forestry, agriculture, and fishing sectors were developed. |
