The Story of Golden Ears Bridge

First came a mighty river,
giant fir and cedar carpeted its valley.
Salmon and sturgeon choked its waters,
and the Katzie people settled its banks
The river sustained their lives.

The golden eagle flew these lands, and roosted
in mountainous aeries high above the river.
Native fishers set their traps, snagging
schools of salmon driven to spawn upstream.
The people lived in harmony with the river.

Then came the settlers to this,
the birthplace of British Columbia.
A place for trade and commerce and manufacture,
A place of settlement and agriculture.
What was missing was a crossing.

The golden aeries of the mountain, it is said
became "The Golden Ears".
And so the eagle, a symbol of this place,
adorns the bridge that bears its name.
