Campbell River

Campbell River is a city on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. It is the seat of the Strathcona Regional District.

Some of the land within the city limits of Campbell River is not part of the city, but form non-contiguous exclaves of Indigenous Administrative Districts (IADs). Weywakum and Quinsam, belonging to the Kwakwewlth District IAD (of which the former is the district seat), and Xwémałkwu (seat of the Naut′sa mawt Nation IAD) are effectively indistinguishable (other than street signs, etc) suburbs of the city, but not administratively part of it.
