Ouch.

Condo in Victoria insurance going from 200k to 800k a year.

Trend in BC at the moment with many buildings seeing huge increases.

JSmith has a love of Aquariums and Animal Planet has a look behind America's largest Aquarium airing this Sunday. Not sure if he gets the Animal Channel in BC but hope so.
