Located in the Tri-Cities area of Metro Vancouver, Port Moody is a city of 35,000 residents.
The city is named after Richard Clement Moody, the first lieutenant governor of the Colony of British Columbia.
As part of the Metro Vancouver region, Port Moody is included in one of the larger regions of Jewish-Canadians in the country.
In the city itself, the Jewish population is only 215 individuals, or 0.6% of the total population, according to the 2021 census. Despite this fact, the Tri-Cities area is well supported with synagogues and Jewish centres.
The Congregation Sha’arei Mizrah and the Burquest Jewish Community Association are active in the Tri-Cities area, offering weekly Shabbat services and High Holiday celebrations.
B’nai Brith thanks Mayor Meghan Lahti for her support of Jewish Heritage Month in 2023, and we look forward to our continued cooperation in the coming years.
