Bentinck Island is a small island in the Strait of Juan de Fuca just off the southern tip of Vancouver Island in Metchosin, British Columbia, Canada near Race Rocks. It served as a leper colony beginning in 1924, when the federal government shut down D'Arcy Island (also a leprosy colony), as Bentinck Island was closer to medical quarantine facilities, until 1957, when the last person affected by leprosy died. rdf:langString
