White Rock Pier is a 470-metre-long (1,540 ft) pier in White Rock, British Columbia. The pier has a sign identifying it as Canada's longest pier. However, the title is disputed with the Quai de Portneuf in Portneuf, Quebec,[1] which is built in the same manner as the longer causeway at the nearby Tsawwassen ferry terminal.[2]
