Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Greater Victoria (also known as the Greater Victoria Region) is located in British Columbia, Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island. It is usually defined as the thirteen municipalities of the Capital Regional District (CRD) on Vancouver Island as well as some adjacent areas and nearby islands.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

La région métropolitaine de Victoria est une agglomération de municipalités qui se situe en Colombie-Britannique, sur la côte sud de l'île de Vancouver. L'agglomération, qui comprend les 13 municipalités les plus à l'est du District régional de la Capitale (CRD) et de plusieurs îles au large de la côte de la péninsule de Saanich, fonctionne comme une entité culturelle plutôt qu'une organisation politique. La CRD se charge de certains aspects de l'administration pour toute la région; d'autres fonctions sont mises en charge par chaque municipalité de la région de métropolitaine de Victoria. En gros, la région métropolitaine entière constitue de toutes les terres qui se situent à l'Est d'une ligne imaginaire qui traverserait le côté sud du fjord de Finlayson Arm, jusqu'à la rive Est du port de Sooke.
