    General note

    Established in 1905, the Anglican Columbia Coast Mission was mandated to serve the spiritual and medical needs of logging and First Nations communities situated along the remote inside coast of northern Vancouver Island, its adjacent islands and the mainland. Launched in 1956, the M.S. Columbia III was the last in a long line of vessels operated by the Columbia Coast Mission, serving as a floating hospital and social beacon to isolated coastal communities until 1967.
