Premier Celebrates Gold Rush in Barkerville

Premier Christy Clark announced $2.4 million today to support
Barkerville's operations as Western North America's largest
historic site.

Today's funding is part of $21 million over three years
announced as part of Budget 2012 for the 11 provincial heritage
properties, and provides support for both operations and
maintenance of the sites.

Each provincially owned property is operated by a site manager,
such as the Barkerville Heritage Trust.
