Probably too dry and a low humidity issue.

If you are in Nanaimo I would just leave this palm outside.  If it gets below freezing, bring it inside since its in a pot and susceptible to freezing, otherwise plenty hardy to be outside.  here is mine in a pot out on the deck all winter, Bowen Island.

I’ve left windmills outside in pots for many years on van isle and had 0 issues with winter weather. They make pretty crappy houseplants, outside in the wet and grey is where they want to be.
