#joeforts was a sailor, originally from Barbados, and a legendary figure in #Vancouver's history. He immigrated to Vancouver in 1885 and worked as a bartender at a hotel in #gastown. At the same time, as an unofficial security guard, he taught hundreds of children how to swim. When he died in 1922, Vancouver residents spontaneously mourned him and formed the longest funeral procession in Vancouver. Even in the 21st century, Vancouverites have built many memorial sites near his home, and many libraries and restaurants were named after him in 1985, a hundred years after he came to Vancouver. Now gourmets from home and abroad are flocking to taste their seafood. The more famous one is the Happy Hour of one dollar for an oyster 🦪, which has now risen to one dollar and a half; there are also lobster 🦞burgers, signature coffee cakes, etc. Interested friends can go and try it.
