We are very sorry to inform our visitors that Bill Barlee passed away last Thursday, June 14 at the age of 80.
Bill was the guy who brought Canada West Magazine to life in the late 1960s, and many books, including one called Gold Creeks and Ghost Towns.
Along the way, he was elected to the government and was for a time Minister of Tourism. His television show, "Gold Trails and Ghost Towns", was a nation wide hit for many years. Bill had a way to excite you with the story's of regular people and if that wasn't enough, you could always count on a hand full of Nuggets to grab you attention! Without Bills influence we would not know as much as we do of this amassing history of our British Columbia.
We are big fans of his works...
Our best wishes to his family and the loss we all share.
I was inspired by Bill to take up the History, collecting of antiques and artifacts.
I now use this knowledge to teach a past we can be very proud of.
Thanks for giving me, my History passion.
British Columbia Historian
