The Qualicum River /in the Pentlach language = "Where the Dog Salmon Run" [1]/ (marked on highway signs in the area as the Big Qualicum River) is a river on the east coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, flowing northeast from its headwaters in Horne Lake into the Strait of Georgia[2] just south of Qualicum Bay, near the town of Qualicum Beach. The river's name comes from that of the Qualicum people.[citation needed]
