The Pacific NorthWest Economic Region's 2017 Economic Leadership Forum was held this past week in Victoria, B.C. Delegates from across the Pacific Northwest participated in 3 days of dialogue and problem-solving.
More than 150 state and provincial legislators and business leaders from the Pacific Northwest and Western Canada convened at the Economic Leadership Forum, Nov. 5-7 in Victoria to discuss regional economic issues, support international trade and build cross-border cooperation.
