How can states and provinces in the Pacific Northwest…

 

High-Tech

...collaborate to strengthen and grow their high-tech economies? Hear from leaders who have raised their regional profiles through the broad use of intellectual property and the notable advancement of knowledge.

 

Climate Change

…develop a bi-national strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while remaining the chief supplier of energy for North America? BC Premier Gordon Campbell has already launched an aggressive campaign to reduce GHG emissions by 33% by 2020.

 

Workforce

…work to address issues pertaining to labour shortages and worker mobility? What are these mobility barriers? British Columbia and Alberta have taken steps to address labour mobility through the Trade, Investment and Labour Mobility Agreement.
