*************************************************************
How Chemainus Got Its Name.
“Tsa-meeun-is” (Broken Chest) was a legendary shaman and prophet who survived a, massive wound to his chest to become a powerful chief.
Long ago his people proudly to his name to identify their own tribal group. By the time the first Europeans arrived, the Tsa-meeun-is people had spread from Kulleet Bay to Westholme, and had village on many of the closer Gulf Islands.
Now his name also designates a river, a valley, a bay, and land district and this town.
