What Will Canadian Big Oil Companies Do?


The history behind Butchart Gardens is that it was an old limestone quarry owned by Robert and Jennie Butchart family, who came to the west coast of Canada because of rich mineral deposits needed for cement.  By 1909,  the limestone quarry was exhausted, and Jennie set about converting it into the Sunken Garden, which was completed in 1921. The fact that the gardens are still owned and operated by the same family 100 years+ after being created is a beautiful display of a family business.
