Description

The Government of BC has announced plans to rebuild the Royal BC Museum - or more like plans to release plans. But it's going to cost $800 million. And Conservatives are in chaos as Jason Kenney's career comes to an untimely end, Ed Fast loses his critique portfolio and the BC Conservatives were subject of a possibly hostile takeover by Aaron Gunn supporters.
