Premier Eby to speak on opening night of BC Natural Resources Forum

The BC Natural Resources Forum (BCNRF) is exactly one week from today (Tuesday) and we now know when the Premier will speak.

David Eby will address a sold-out crowd at the Prince George Conference and Civic Centre on January 16th during the event’s Banquet Dinner.

“BCNRF recognizes the importance of interconnected decision-making and is committed to forging meaningful partnerships across the natural resource sectors. This year, we are focusing on harnessing these connections to create a lasting positive impact, not just for our generation but for those yet to come.” Sarah Weber, Forum Advisory Committee Chair and President & CEO, C3 Alliance.

The Forum has become well known as the largest natural resource conference in Western Canada that brings First Nations, Government, and the BC Natural Resource Sector together to foster collaboration and meaningful partnerships.

More than 1,200 individuals, including First Nations, NGOs, community, government, and business leaders, are expected to attend the event in Prince George. This year’s theme is “Shaping Tomorrow: BC’s Resource Sector and Future Generations”.
