Being from Manitoba I wasn’t sure what there was to do in Kamloops, during the month of October especially Tranquille was recommended to me by multiple people. Tranquille seems to be a big gossip topic within Kamloops, however I’m curious how valid the information floating around is. Throughout the year I have focused my attention to the Tranquille Sanatorium, going through the history of Tranquille I was bombarded with knowledge on its time as a farm and a tuberculosis facility however looking into its time as a psychiatric institution it appears that there is very little information, however its infamous for its time as a psych ward. I am curious to why all the records seem to have vanished and if there is a reason behind it. I am going to be interviewing a handful of students including locals and non-locals to see the here say that has spread around Kamloops. I found this surprising as almost every local Kamloopians I have met has had information on it. In my interview I am going to interview people from Kamloops and ask them what they have heard about Tranquille and where their information stems from, seeing if it is factual or more town gossip.
