La provincia canadiense de Columbia Británica está dividida en distritos regionales como un medio para permitir que los municipios y las áreas rurales trabajen juntos a nivel regional.

Al igual que los condados en otras partes de Canadá, los distritos regionales sirven solo para proporcionar servicios municipales como el gobierno local en áreas no incorporadas a un municipio , y en ciertos asuntos regionales de interés compartido entre los residentes de áreas no incorporadas y los de los municipios, como papel de las partes interesadas en la planificación regional . En aquellas áreas predominantemente rurales, los distritos regionales brindan servicios tales como planificación del uso de la tierra , inspección de edificios , manejo de desechos sólidos y cierta responsabilidad por la protección comunitaria contra incendios .

La mayor parte de la tierra nominalmente dentro de un distrito regional está bajo el control del gobierno provincial o, en el caso de los parques nacionales y las aguas costeras, el gobierno federal. Las reservas indias ubicadas dentro de los límites de los distritos regionales también están excluidas de su jurisdicción e infraestructura, y existen diferentes niveles de colaboración entre los gobiernos de las Primeras Naciones y las juntas regionales de distrito.

Los distritos regionales están gobernados por juntas de directores elegidos directa e indirectamente. Los municipios nombran directores para representar a su población (generalmente los alcaldes), mientras que los residentes de áreas no incorporadas (que se agrupan en áreas electorales ) eligen directores directamente. Los votos de los directores de los municipios generalmente cuentan más que los votos de los directores de las áreas electorales, y los municipios más grandes tienen más votos que los más pequeños. Por ejemplo, tanto North Saanich como Metchosin nombran un director para la junta directiva del Distrito Regional Capital , pero el voto del director de North Saanich cuenta tres veces más que el voto de la persona designada por Metchosin. ^[1]

Historical regional districts[edit]

The first regional district was established in 1965, and the then-final regional district was established in 1968.

The following regional districts were dissolved in December 1995 and amalgamated largely into the newly formed Fraser Valley Regional District:

Dewdney-Alouette Regional District: consisting of Mission, Pitt Meadows, and Maple Ridge, and unincorporated areas north of the Fraser River and west of the District of Kent
Central Fraser Valley Regional District: consisting of the modern City of Abbotsford (itself newly formed at the time) and adjacent unincorporated areas – Sumas Mountain (now FVRD Electoral H), west of Chilliwack and south of the Fraser River.
Regional District of Fraser-Cheam: consisting of the eastern two-thirds of the modern Fraser Valley Regional District, including Chilliwack, Kent, Harrison Hot Springs, Hope and the Fraser Canyon unincorporated areas.^[9]

The western half of Dewdney-Alouette, consisting of Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, was incorporated into the Greater Vancouver Regional District (now Metro Vancouver). Mission and the unincorporated areas east to the Chehalis River were incorporated into the Fraser Valley Regional District.

This amalgamation took place due to the western part of Dewdney-Alouette having become essentially a suburb of Vancouver and the thought it would be better served by being within Metro Vancouver. The Central Fraser Valley RD would be nearly completely dominated by the newly amalgamated City of Abbotsford, bringing the regional district's role into question; similarly, the remnant of Dewdney-Alouette would be dominated by Mission. Given the rapid growth being experienced in the Fraser Valley at the time, which was expected to continue for the foreseeable future, the creation of the Fraser Valley Regional District was seen as the best option.^{[citation needed]}

The Comox-Strathcona Regional District was abolished in February 2008 and replaced by two successor regional districts: Comox Valley and Strathcona.^[10]

The Peace River-Liard Regional District was created October 31, 1967, when the regional district system was first being established. On October 31, 1987, it was split into the Peace River Regional District and the Fort Nelson-Liard Regional District, which since has become the Northern Rockies Regional Municipality.^[11]
