Heroes of Confederation

The Heroes of Confederation heritage initiative is being developed by the Kamloops Chinese Cultural Association. It focuses on the sacrifices and contributions of Chinese railway workers during the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway in the 1880s. The goal of the Heroes of Confederation Project is to build a Kamloops Chinese Heritage Railway Museum, which will also store the records of Chinese railway workers so that family members can trace their roots.
