And why can’t we have a Guggenheim or Louvres in the Capital? Why not?
In no way was I comparing Ottawa to Saskatoon or Regina. Suggesting I did is deliberately misleading. Canada's museums can be like the Guggenheim or Louvre, and maybe one day they will as we continue to improve as a city and nation. What would really help is if we began to properly fund them to be world class.
