Hidden beneath BC’s forests and mountains lie secret fallout shelters. Built during the Cold War. Designed for the elite.
The Diefenbunker near Victoria: 4 stories underground. 700 officials. 30 days of rations.
Behind Château Whistler: A hidden bunker for the wealthy. Private escape plans.
Vancouver Law Courts & Bentall Centre: Federal fallout shelters hidden from public view.
Regular Canadians were told to build backyard shelters with plywood. The rich had concrete and steel.
The Cold War ended. But the bunkers remain. Buried reminders that when the world prepared for annihilation, the elite prepared to survive.
