Construction of new Art Gallery of Nova Scotia put on hold
“. . .
Nova Scotia NDP Leader Claudia Chender said Nova Scotia's cultural sector has been hit "harder than most" during the pandemic.
"We understand that we are in an inflationary moment and in a cost-of-living crisis," Chender said, noting that $137 million for an art gallery "may be difficult for people to stomach."
She said she hopes the premier is both determining a better use for the millions that were supposed to be spent on the new building, but also finding a way to accommodate the cultural sector.
