Desperate Times - Innovative Measures
About this event
Businesses in BC - whether non-profit or profit - are facing urgent challenges. Here in Vancouver, neighbourhoods risk being hollowed out as local businesses struggle to continue to provide key services. Outside Vancouver and across BC, climate change - specifically unprecedented levels of devastation from forest fires - have literally razed businesses vital to the economic health of their communities.
