The main purpose of the British Columbia Historical Federation is to stimulate public interest and encourage research in the history of British Columbia. The Federation provides a single, collective voice for member societies working to preserve the province’s history. The British Columbia Historial Association was established on 31 October 1922 and on 2 March 1927, the Association was registered under the Societies Act. It was renamed the British Columbia Historical Federation on 29 July 1983 -- a name that better reflects the role as an umbrella organization for provincial historical societies. The Federation is a non-profit organization registered as a charitable society under the Income Tax Act. 1, record 1, English, - British%20Columbia%20Historical%20Federation
