It is with profound sadness and disgust that I read in the Sept. 20, 2017 issue of the Burnaby NOW that city council has money, and lots of it, for a brand new ice arena when they recently could not find a dime for a new Burnaby Art Gallery.  

It is clear that council has made an infinite number of excuses for relegating the building of a new art gallery for the citizens of Burnaby to the bottom of the list for over 50 years, but at the drop of a hat they can find money for ice.
