$8.1 million keeps B.C. history alive
B.C.’s heritage sites are getting an $8.1 million share of the B.C. government’s year-end cash injection to the slowing provincial economy.
Tourism Minister Bill Bennett announced the funds Thursday at St. Ann’s Academy, the Roman Catholic school in Victoria that has been a heritage site since 1973. He said the sites will have a three-year budget to work with, instead of applying for annual grants to keep the historic tourist attractions open.
