Show Notes
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.
