WE thankyou for your generosity, sincerely appreciated. AS a young lad living in BURNABY I had access to 4 RINKS, unlimited ice time was key in my development as a hockey player. DOES not matter how one obtains ice time thru public skating playing pond hockey on a backyard rink the key is to have ice available 365 days of the year.

Very generous donation by Dunkley Lumber to a 17.5 million dollar project in Quesnel that benefits the community. Compare this to Prince George’s 40 million dollar cop shop, that is totally unnecessary at the price the taxpayers of PG will be paying for many years.
