Burnaby Civic Employees Union Memorial Fountain

This granite drinking fountain is a monument to Burnaby's municipal employees who lost their lives in the First World War. It signifies an important connection with the early strength and prominence of the civic labour union in Burnaby, as this was a memorial erected by the union members themselves, rather than by the civic government. Located at Burnaby Village Museum.
