April Fools

I totally bit on this one... for a couple of minutes

Vail Resorts Closes $50 Million Acquisition of Blackcomb Glacier Provincial Park​


WHISTLER, BC, APR. 1, 2026

BC Parks officials announced earlier this morning a landmark deal between Vail Resorts, parent company of Whistler/Blackcomb, and the BC Government for a transfer of Blackcomb Glacier Provincial Park

“This is a monumental exchange that will bring much needed revenue to the BC government, while at the same time providing more value to the shareholders of Vail Resorts,” BC Parks spokesperson Joseph King announced. “After 40 years of a shared agreement for grooming and ski patrol, we felt that the resort deserves to benefit from the expansion into terrain that was already under their watch.”

If it weren't for the date, I wouldn't put it past a government. Ontario is selling off parts of Wasaga Beach PP.
 
I knew this was an April Fool because there’s no way a B.C. NDP government would do this.

But a Gordon Campbell or Christy Clark led B.C. Liberal government…they would totally do it. Although they would probably sell it to China.
