Built in 1913 by community labour, the Doukhobor Suspension Bridge connected Doukhobor settlements on both sides of the Kootenay River in British Columbia's Kootenay Boundary region and served as a vital transportation link for over fifty years. Also known as the Brilliant Suspension Bridge, it symbolizes the collective toil of the Christian pacifist Doukhobor pioneers who established communal settlements in the region during the early 20th century and contributed to Canada's development.
