The Orca winner of The Search for B.C.'s Best Symbol (www.cbc.ca)

The orca has emerged victorious in The Search for B.C.'s Best Symbol, defeating 63 other challengers in a friendly summer-long competition by CBC News to determine what iconic thing in this province best represents us.

After five weeks and 500,000 votes, the orca defeated the totem pole in the final by a comfortable 64-36 per cent margin to win the unofficial and unscientific crown.
