Why is BC losing it over Harry Potter?
Description
January 9, 2026
Backlash against a Harry Potter-themed attraction in BC's Stanley Park is drawing headlines around the world...but what's got people so bent out of shape? As always with this franchise, the answer has something to do with series creator J.K. Rowling. In recent years, Rowling has come under fire for her outspoken views on transgender rights. How does that cascade to an event in Stanley Park?
