Coastal GasLink. Trans Mountain. LNG Canada Phase One. The wave of megaprojects that carried British Columbia for a decade has finished — basically all at once. A second wave is lining up behind it. But lining up isn't the same as starting, and somewhere in between is a stretch where the phone stops ringing.\r\n\r\nEpisode 20 of ICBA Coffee & Construction — the news that matters to the people who build British Columbia and Alberta, with ICBA's Jordan Bateman. A special regional edition: a full sit-down with Mike Davis, ICBA's Vice President, Regional, on the two-thirds of B.C. that gets too little attention from the media and government — Vancouver Island, the Okanagan, the Kootenays, the Interior and the north.\r\n\r\nIn this episode:\r\n\r\n🗺️ THE MOOD. Mike tours this province constantly. Are people optimistic or white-knuckling it? \r\n🌲 THE FORESTRY TOWNS. Cranbrook. Vernon. Williams Lake. Prince George. \r\n🚧 WHAT'S QUEUED. The North Coast Transmission Line. LNG Canada Phase 2. Ksi Lisims. Cedar and Woodfibre already under construction. A run of mine permits and expansions. The work is real — the question is when it starts.\r\n🤝 MEET THE GENERALS AND OWNERS, VICTORIA. ICBA's reverse trade show comes to the Victoria Conference Centre on Tuesday, September 15. The general contractors and owners sit behind the tables; everybody else works the room. 1,000 people. \r\n\r\n🎟️ Register for ICBA Meet the Generals & Owners — Vancouver Island: https://events.icba.ca/2026Victoria\r\n\r\n📊 Get the ICBA Economics briefing — the most helpful email you'll get all week: https://icba.ca/economics","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/cbYnPby-34WwINekPZoHv9aYI0-XpmtKJrtNbyowe78/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS81NThm/ZGE3NTk0NmVmNTFj/MjNjZmIwOGRjM2Vm/YzMwOC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
