Surrey Urban Mission CEO Jack O’Halloran has an idea to bring the Site C dam's massive worker camp to Surrey .

The camp housed nearly 2,000 workers building the $16 billion hydroelectric dam.

BC Hydro is looking for a home for the facility, which includes dorms, kitchens and dining buildings, along with a fitness centre, gym and theatre.

O'Halloran says he hasn’t yet spoken to BC Hydro , but intends to make contact this week to “throw our hat in the ring”.
