Mill No. 3 at the Britannia Mine Museum was considered an engineering marvel. Now Canada’s largest museum artifact is celebrating 100 years of its existence. CBC’s Baneet Braich went for a visit and brings us this glimpse of the past.

I recall a similar structure across the river from Hedley before it burned down.

So many movies and tv shows were filmed at the Mill. I wonder what will happen after the museum event is finished?

No mention of the fatal slide?

Ah yes. Our legacy of the devastation of indigenous lands through extractive colonialism.

You indigenous? I’m Métis, if not your opinion is just that and not really important
