Is There a Future for the Resource Sector in British Columbia?

This week our guest is Stewart Muir, founder and CEO of Resource Works,.  Resource Works is a public-interest advocacy and communications not-for-profit based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Their mission is to reignite the promise of Canada's economic future by leading respectful, inclusive and fact-based dialogue on natural resource development.  

Here are some of the questions that Peter and Jackie asked Stewart:  How have politics in B.C. changed with the new Premier, David Eby? How is LNG viewed in B.C. now? Is LNG considered as green energy and a way to reduce the use of coal in Asia? What do you think are the chances for the second phase of LNG Canada? What is the sentiment from Indigenous groups on resource development? Explain the Blueberry River First Nations agreement with the B.C. government and how it impacts industrial development in other areas of the province? Do you expect large scale CCS projects to be developed in Northeast B.C.?
