What is it about British Columbia that we're near the top of the global longevity spectrum? As you age do you fear health care resources, mental health resources, a lack of social services, a lack of social networks, or a lack of money? Hosted on Acast.

    Permit to Prosperity - the Sequel

    The economic opportunities mining presents are enormous, however, the Trump Administration has thrown a wrench into the development of North American critical minerals. "The demand for critical minerals in the United States is not going to change" says Michael Goehring of the Mining Association of British Columbia, "the US has two choices of supply China and Canada. The US needs our critical minerals." BC currently has 17 critical mineral projects awaiting approval, four of which are on Premier Eby's list of natural resources projects, there's another five precious metal or gold projects under development. Goehring says, "those projects represent a generational opportunity for British Columbia's economy." Join us on Tuesday May 6 as our panel outlines the opportunities, the roadblocks and the solutions to igniting the province's economy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Energy Sustainability and the Election

    Earth Day, an international recognition that we need to protect our home. This precious blue marble in space, uniquely positioned to sustain life as we know it. Easy access to energy has powered dramatic changes and advances in our quality of life and it has also had an impact on the environment. For much of the past 20 years in Canada, the environment and sustainable energy has been at the forefront of every election in the country, nationally, provincially and locally. Suddenly, the environment is taking a back seat. It’s a troubling shift of priorities. One that could threaten the future of developing sustainable energy generation and the future of the planet. Join me on Earth Day, April 22 at 4:22 pm for a Conversations Live special edition - Sustainable Energy and the Election. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  8. Food: Production, Security, and Affordability

    Food: Production, Security, and Affordability

    If American produced food is removed from grocery stores in British Columbia, get ready to go without. More than 60 per cent of the products on the shelves are from south of the 49th parallel.  If you want a balanced diet of vegetables, grains, fruits and protein then you can not source all of your meals from BC or Canada. The way we grow and trade food back and forth is based on who can grow it, in quantity, with certainty and ensure we can afford it. So we grow grains and produce seafood in this country and we sell those to the US and others. But we don’t grow anywhere near enough fruit and veggies, so we import them. And here’s where it gets tricky, in BC we - at best - produce only 30 per cent of what we need and much of that we send to the US to be processed before bringing it home to consume. Now throw in tariffs, what will happen to the cost and the reliability of food? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
