Modest growth & big challenges: The road ahead for BC’s economy
The plenary session at this year’s Convention will focus on BC’s economy, given recent data on the province’s finances, debt and credit downgrades. Speakers will assess how serious the situation is and consider challenges to getting the economy back on course. BC’s Minister of Finance will provide opening remarks followed by an economic overview from a managing director with the National Bank of Canada. Panelists will respond to the overview and take questions from the audience.
