Mike Holden, VP of policy and chief economist, and Alicia Planincic, director of policy & economics, both at the Business Council of Alberta, discuss why Canada has become one of the most difficult places in the developed world to get things built. They explore how our regulatory system has evolved into a maze of overlapping jurisdictions, endless consultations, and political uncertainty that's driving investment abroad. They also offer solutions—from reforming the Impact Assessment Act to creating clear accountability measures for regulations.

This episode is presented in partnership with the Business Council of Alberta.

Former B.C. cabinet minister Iain Black argues why he should be the next leader of the Conservative Party of British Columbia. Black discusses his vision for addressing British Columbia's growing challenges, including its $13.3 billion dollar deficit, the worst housing crisis in the country, safety concerns around drug abuse, and questions around property rights following a landmark court decision around Indigenous title. Black insists his experience in power will be what unites B.C.'s fractured conservative movement. In the next few weeks, The Hub will interview the lead contenders vying to become leader of the BC Conservatives, and the next leader of the Official Opposition.
