Did no one even vett this, @royalbcmuseum.bsky.social? Even by generative AI standards, it is a horrifyingly inaccurate depiction of gold prospecting... #bchist
Hey @royalbcmuseum.bsky.social - why are you using an AI generated image when you have a wealth of digitized images and paintings from the gold rush that you could use?

This is devastating for the historic community of Telegraph Cove - and the North Island, generally. Another BC museum lost to flames #BChist #CdnHist #BCpoli
Breaking News in #TelegraphCove. A major fire is burning on the historic boardwalk. At least the museum and restaurant have been destroyed and part of the boardwalk has collapsed. Firefighters from #PortMcNeill and #PortHardy are battling the flames. @cheknews.ca Credit: PM Fire

The ranch is a deeply colonial place and, if this is confirmed, could be the next exciting opportunity to deconstruct colonial narratives in #BChist #CdnHist
