[edit] big problem with name

I think what's happened here is someone built this off a "Census designated places" listing and the bureaucrats/satisticians who come up with those things aren't talking about real communities; Robson is a separate community, and has a history older than and separate from Raspberry, British Columbia, which was a Doukhbour settlement whose original name was in Russian - the word for "raspberry".

I'm gonna split these, although this could remain as a "designated places in Canada" cat-member, though I don't particularly like that cat.Skookum1 (talk) 18:09, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
