North Vancouver teams up with Weston family to open Burrard Inlet urban pool

People visiting Paris this summer got a first-time opportunity to jump into the cleaned-up Seine River and go for a swim.

Now, avid swimmers in B.C. will be able to plunge into the harbour waters of Burrard Inlet in a new, boardwalk-enclosed pool on the City of North Vancouver’s waterfront, thanks to a non-profit organization supported by Canada’s Weston family that wants to promote urban swimming.
