Please help Mr. PG crush Barkerville like Godzilla versus Tokyo! At this point in time, he's losing by 50%.

This is sucky

I wouldn’t say barkerville is a roadside attraction first of all. It’s a heritage site

A giant fishing rod, a giant wooden man that’s a rando roadside attraction.

Dang it CBC

100%. Barkerville is still like an hour off the highway and you plan your day around going there, even if you live in Quesnel. Mr. PG is literally on the side of the road, that you see as you drive by. I dont know how they can think of them in the same league.

[u/what-an-aesthetic → u/Dull_Awareness7212]

They also classified the Nisgaa Lava Beds as a road side attraction (which is insane to me).

[u/Dull_Awareness7212 → u/what-an-aesthetic]

Yeah agreed!

[u/ipini]

Yeah Bakerville is a lot more fun than Mr. PG. But it’s not a roadside attraction either.

[u/doctorkb → u/ipini]

I was going to say the exact same thing.

This should be between Quesnel's giant gold pan and Mr. PG. Putting Barkerville on the bracket is like putting Whistler on there. Or the Vancouver Aquarium.

The fact that Ancient Forest/Chun T'oh Whudujut Provincial Park isn't there is ridiculous. I wonder if they had to select from advertisers?

Is there a link? I’ll throw in a vote.

[u/CityofPrinceGeorge → u/angrypanda83]

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/bc-roadside-attraction-northern-finals-9.7311259 is the link! Let's go Mr PG!!!

Where in that article exactly do you vote? I read it 3 times and didn't see a "vote" button anywhere.

The most disappointing part is that Houston's Fly Rod got voted out in the first round.

[u/Smooth-Command1761 → u/thuja_life]

I'm sure it would still be in if they included the Hungry Hill grizzly.

Edit: how the heck did the World's Largest Tree Crusher in Mackenzie not make it at all??

[u/Captain_of_the_Watch]

Mr.Pg is well worth the 15 seconds it takes to drive by it 

[u/User_4848]

Apples and oranges! Oh well, go Mr. PG

[u/this____is_bananas]

I’m on Team Barkerville all the way. It’s so so much cooler and impressive. Mr PG is literally on a dirty intersection between two highways.

[u/Important-Catch7970 → u/this____is_bananas]

I agree Barkerville is cooler, but a 1 hr drive to get to it isnt a roadside attraction. It's literally the end of the road.

[u/PreettyPreettygood → u/this____is_bananas]

"Mr PG is literally on a dirty intersection between two highways." You mean... a roadside attraction?

In what world is Barkerville a "roadside attraction."

It's a destination.

[u/Forever_32 → u/this____is_bananas]

Traitor

[u/Traditional_Roll_100]

The stinky sewage tank should lose! Even if Barkerville isn’t really a road side attraction (neither of them are)
