If you are downtown Victoria and have the strong urge to shoot some hoops, you won’t have to look far.
The BC Legislature has added a brand new basketball court to their lawn!
In a tweet, political correspondent Rob Shaw joked the basketball court had been added to the grounds so BC Health Minister Adrian Dix can challenge locals and tourists to pick-up games.

While Dix acknowledged the tweet with a like and a retweet, he has yet to confirm or deny whether he’d be up for the challenge.
Dix is known as an avid sports fan, having previously played and coached basketball – perhaps this new court will be the perfect place to decompress after a long day of reporting COVID-19 numbers
The addition of the basketball court has been met with mixed reviews on Twitter.
Up for a game of basketball at the BC Legislature?
