Geographical Location
The Thompson-Nicola Regional District is a regional
district in the Canadian province of British Columbia.
The Canada 2006 Census population was 122,286. The
administrative offices are in the main population centre
is the city of Kamloops, which accounts for almost 65
percent of the regional district's population. The only
other city is Merritt; however, there are locally
important communities such as the district municipality
of Logan Lake, and the villages of Chase, Ashcroft, and
Cache Creek.
The region is named indirectly for the
Thompson River by way of the traditional regional names
of "the Thompson Country" and "the Nicola Country"; the
Nicola Country was named for Chief Nicola and was
originally "Nicola's Country", where he held sway; he is
also the namesake of that river. The region is known for
its sports and outdoors activities and also its largely
arid, sunny climate and "Wild West" scenery and culture.
