I can't find anything written in the news about this, but I'm hearing Victoria, BC's City Council is debating cutting funding to their Poet Laureate and Book Prizes programs.
It's an $18,000 line item that inspires poets, writers, and artists of all stripes.
If you're a resident, please email your Councillor and Mayor Alto.
