Talk:History of Victoria (1983: Doomsday)

Contact with Washingtonians
The San Juan Islands are literally just offshore from Victoria city. I've never been there, but on the map they look close enough to see from Oak Bay, one of Victoria's suburbs. It's inconceivable that it would take ten years to contact them; in fact, there needs to be a better explanation of why the islands _didn't_ join Victoria, when the rest of the Puget Sound region apparently did so early. The dates need to be adjusted. How about you move contact with San Juan to 1984, and move the annexation of Washington to the early 90s? Benkarnell 03:43, October 26, 2009 (UTC)
