    Great exhibits, most of which you can photograph for personal use. The gift ship staff is unhelpful, but there's free WiFi.

    They have some major art pieces but I was sad to see none from my favourite artist, Salvador Dali.

    The collection is quite good for CANADIAN standards but the security they have has too much power tripping-need to learn respect and customer service.

    A bit blah, there is nothing that stands out and there isn't much curation just items stuck in a room. The building is great for sure, but that alone isn’t worth the entrance price.
