Barkerville is a national/provincial treasure. Almost losing the site to wildfire last year - highlighted the significance this site holds to our shared history as well as the importance to our regional tourism sector and economic diversification. #bcpoli @DestinationBC @HelloBC @DestinationCAN @CdnHeritage @spencerchandraherbert @IndigenousBC @SChandraHerbert

A bit of cool B.C. History ⬇️
#ProvincialFossil #Elasmosaur
Have you heard of the elasmosaur? In 1988, Mike Trask and his daughter Heather found the first elasmosaur fossil west of the Canadian Rockies along near Courtenay on Vancouver Island. In 2023 the elasmosaur became BC's official fossil: gov.bc.ca/ProvincialFossil

Please support the truth and healing legislation currently being considered by Congress.
“No president has ever formally apologized for the forced removal of Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian children — an element of genocide as defined by the United Nations — or any other aspect of the U.S. government’s decimation of Indigenous peoples.”
This is a huge shift in American Policy toward Indigenous Americans. One that has been in the making. Our Native Family is finally being recognized for their suffering and value to this nation. Good on Biden for being the one to finally do it.
