[edit]

I added a population figure of 3.2 million by adding the populations of the 4 regional districts of the lower mainland{2004 est}and south of Campbell River to Victoria on Vancouver Island.

There are only two regional districts in the Lower Mainland; the SCRD and SLRD aren't in the Lower Mainland....they are in Southwestern British Columbia, but that's a different thing; the Sunshine Coast is "upcoast", the Squamish-Lillooet is "upcountry"...i.e. they're not "lower", which is the origin of the Lower Mainland usage; anywhere outside of it you had to take a boat, or a freaky mountain road, to get to. Part of the Fraser Valley Regional District isn't in the Lower Mainland, it's the lower Fraser Canyon, and parts of the Greater Vancouver Regional District are decidedly Coast Mountains, which is a different region/landform. "Fraser Lowland" pretty much coincices with the Lower Mainland, except that it also incudes teh lowlands of Whatcom County.....Skookum1 (talk) 22:10, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge issue; now unmerged and written properly

See my comments on Talk:Salish Sea.Skookum1 20:59, 9 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've forgotten what those were; I gather it was from not liking having this redirected to Salish Sea, which I just discovered and quickly writing up an article, which I'd long planned to do, as it's a deceit to redirect this major landform article to a page about a renaming campaign (which actually is for the body of water, not what lies beneath it/forms it). The cite for now is only cursory, as I'm in a hurry so will be back later with details of some basic refs; this may have a different name in the US, e.g. Puget-Georgia Depression or Puget Trough etc I"m not familiar with the nomenclature there; the Georgia-Puget Basin is a term I've heard, it would seem to be t he combination of the Georgia and Puget Troughs (oh, the Georgia Trough is a subarea within the Georgia Depression, and is the Gulf of Georgia incl. the islands to the head of Puget Sound (I think).Skookum1 (talk) 22:10, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
