Just gonna tap an oil exec as a one-man arts board in Banff. Nothing to see here.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The UCP government has removed the entire board of the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity, replacing the directors with a single administrator tasked with reviewing the institution's inner workings.

"This change offers an opportunity to focus on a refreshed future for the Banff Centre," Advanced Education Minister Rajan Sawhney was quoted as saying in the ministry news release.

She's the minister responsible for the 90-year-old facility, which operates under the province's Post-Secondary Learning Act, though the centre grants no degrees.

The facility, which offers various creative-arts programs and hosts many non-arts conferences, has been beset by leadership churn and budget issues, especially as the pandemic walloped Banff's hospitality business.

Last week, the chair of the centre's literary journalism program announced on social media that it was ending "in its storied, much-celebrated form."

As part of his settlement for the breach known as "tipping," Baay agreed to "pursue and complete training in best practices for public company governance."
