Can I please request this article be expanded with more information about the history of the town itself? When exactly it was established, how it grew, when the industries came to town, etc.? The article goes straight from "established in the 1910s" (no actual date given) to "then the mill closed in 2006". Additionally, the section detailing the Squamish people is important but it's unclear as to whether they are the inhabitants of the town, simply live nearby, or are merely the town's namesake. Thank you to anyone who can help! 67.8.203.16 ( talk) 21:42, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
I edited the article to remove a reference to Terrill Patterson, described as the "town political watchdog." He appears to be (or recently have been) a candidate for Mayor of the town, but I don't see any reason to currently include him in the article. Thoughts? -- Hansnesse 03:24, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
Keep it he is important to the town, he was voted town celebrity (2004 reader' choice award squamish chief) he is widely know in the community and is a political watch dog attends all meetings of council, he was a councilor, ran for mayor and collects bottles (what a recycler!) You are a tard hansnesse. HD 123321 04:23, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
Oh he does more than just attending meetings, he attends all the meeting more than the sleezy mayor, he is a unoficial non partison lobbyist and was previously a councilor in squamish. HD 123321 23:14, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
Patterson is still an important person in the community and deserves mention of some sort —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.82.121.3 ( talk) 02:19, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
He should be linked to the town considering he shaped politics and a huge part of this community. Wolfden222 ( talk) 01:54, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

Was the film "Love on the Side" filmed in Squamish? It seems the story was set in "Squamish, California." Kdammers ( talk) 06:15, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
Could you put which famous people are from Squamish? An example is Jackson Goldstone 81.33.137.25 ( talk) 12:55, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
