In case any of you missed Tuesday's announcement by Minister James Moore, you might want to type "Canadian Museum of Civilization" and "Musée canadien des civilisations" in GoogleNews.
For now, I will allow elder blogsman Christopher Moore's optimism to wash over me. Perhaps some good can come out of this after all. It's a shame, though, that Canada Hall is being scrapped altogether. The immersive environments -- from the Basque ship and whaling station, to the mid-eighteenth century "New France" town gate and square, the Louisbourg inn, the farmhouse, workshops and hospital interiors -- were nothing short of magical. The post 1760 ones were not bad either, I guess. Museum staff have their work cut out for them.
P.-F.-X.
