Information
has glosseng: The Cowichan Valley is a region around the Cowichan River and Cowichan Lake on Vancouver Island, in British Columbia, Canada. There is some debate as to the origin of the name Cowichan, which many believe to be an anglicized form of the First Nations tribal name Quwutsun. This word in turn may be derived from Hulqumi'num, meaning "the warm land." Others have claimed that the name is a bastardized English form of "cow pasture."
