How about Portuguese Joe Silvey http://shoretoshore.ca/story.php
Portuguese Joe Silvey and my Great Great Grandfather Portuguese John Enos were some of BC's early pioneers and Joe Silvey's daughter was the first European child born in Vancouver

Luke Marston created a gorgeous sculpture for all the descendants of Portuguese and for the Indigenous people who lived in Stanley Park, Vancouver. See below.
This video above references my Great Great Grandfather John Enos & Enos Lake in Nanoose Bay (http://portuguesepioneersofbc.blogspot.ca/search/label/john%20enos )
"The sculpture honours the link between Portuguese and Coast Salish First Nations cultures, marks the land’s rich heritage, and symbolizes unity for the Vancouver’s present-day diverse inhabitants.
The large bronze sculpture is surrounded by engraved Portuguese stone, prominently installed in Stanley Park’s Northeast shore, overlooking downtown. http://shoretoshore.ca/"
"Master carver Luke Marston created a 14-foot bronze sculpture for Stanley Park, commemorating the adventures of Portuguese Joe and his Coast Salish family." http://shoretoshore.ca
