Hope, District municipality in Fraser Valley Regional District, British Columbia, Canada.
The District of Hope sits at the meeting point of Fraser and Coquihalla rivers, serving as the southern end of the Coquihalla Highway.
The Hudson's Bay Company established Fort Hope as a trading post in 1848, leading to settlement growth during the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush.
Hope maintains Memorial Park and Friendship Garden to honor Japanese Canadians who were held in nearby internment camps during World War II.
The district government provides community services through its municipal building, managing waste collection, property development, and local business licenses.
The Kawkawa Bridge, which appeared in the 1982 film First Blood with Sylvester Stallone, stood as a local landmark until its demolition in 2011.
