You may want to try the Vancouver Museum - it did once have a natural
history department that contained (and still does I think) fossil material
and other geological collections. It also have over 1 million shells!
Anyway , I dont have an e-mail but you can call them at 604-736-4431. They
have an automated phone system so you may want to ask for Joan Seidl
(history curator). They no longer have a natural historian on staff.
Hope this helps.
