BC Liberal leader vows to cancel museum rebuildKevin Falcon made a bold promise on his first day in the legislature, saying he will cancel the nearly $1-billion overhaul of the Royal BC museum. John Horgan have a say? If or when he gets in, it’ll likely be halfway done. Don’t waste time at the point, make sure it’s done, otherwise it’ll be just like the Massey Bridge. Canceled and money wasted. There are far more pressing things to do with the money than spend it on a museum that costs $25 to get into and that 1% of the BC population will ever see it. Its a tourist business. Give the artifacts back to the Indigenous nations so they can choose how to display them.
