Charles St GRT terminal redevelopment

[tomh009]

A bit unrealated, but if a city the size of thunder bay with a shrinking population and economy can build a new facility for the arts, the region should be able to handle it. 

$5M in funding from the city.
$5M from the province.
$11M from the federal government
$12M from donors.

So the city is contributing only about 15%. Plus possibly the land.

In any case, this is a long-established gallery with a large collection of native art. If we built a new gallery like this in Kitchener, I suspect it would have a lot of empty space.
