This week we jump into a great conversation with Ryan Andrews of PCL Construction's Infrastructure Manager for the BC Region along with serial entrepreneur, real estate investor and co-owner of the Penticton Speedway, Mr Ingo Seibert. The purpose of this weeks episode is to gain an understanding of what billion dollar corporations are seeing, why they believe in the region and why they are continuing to help the province build the necessary infrastructure for what will be a major increase in population and density. Furthermore, we contrast that from the perspective of smaller entrepreneurs, what they have been up against since the pandemic and how they are making plays not only here in Vancouver but also in the interior. Who is PCL and why do they matter? PCL is a leading construction company in Canada, with a strong presence in the Vancouver area.

The line was built in partnership with the  government of British Columbia and TransLink, the regional transportation authority. PCL was responsible for the construction of the elevated guideway, stations, and systems for the line. The Canada Line has been a great success, providing fast, reliable, and convenient transportation for the people of Vancouver and the surrounding areas.  For more on PCL, see: https://www.pcl.com/ca/enWhat is the Penticton Speedway?

CHAPTER 1

It's day 25 of the transit strike in Metro Vancouver. And as we know, there will be a shutdown of bus and SeaBus services later this week, on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. This hour, Translink's CEO, Kevin Desmond, has told the public about extra resources that are being added to other parts of the transit network, to help keep you moving during the transit strike. He says there are more than 100,000 students who use transit to get to classes every day. And there are roughly 100,000 workers who use transit - and who do not have a car, or a driver's licence. So what's still running? SkyTrain, Canada Line, and West Coast Express will be operating. West Vancouver Transit will be running - but people there should keep in mind that the 257 Horseshoe Bay route will not.   And as Kevin Desmond wrapped up that press conference - he had this message for Unifor.

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

Day 21 of the transit strike in Metro Vancouver, as the region prepares for a potential shutdown of bus and SeaBus services on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday next week. The Premier, John Horgan, is calling on both sides in the transit dispute to get back to the bargaining table this weekend. He was speaking in the past half-hour. His comments come as the Coast Mountain Bus Company has sent out a statement this lunchtime, once again calling on Unifor to agree to mediation. This particular job action will not affect SkyTrain, Canada Line, West Coast Express or HandyDART service, or contracted shuttle services in Langley and on Bowen Island. It also won't have any effect on the West Vancouver Blue Bus system, which is operated by a different company. Metro Vancouver Transit Police say they will also increase staff to deal with any crowding at SkyTrain stations. But next week's shutdown will impact the 350,000 people who take the buses every day in Metro Vancouver. So let's find out now about the contingency planning that's being put in place - and how you can get around while services are cancelled.   Guest: Shawn Chaudhry One of the people running a Facebook group for SFU carpooling Guest: Selena McLachlan Director of Marketing & Communications, Modo Guest: Matthew Ramsey Director of University Affairs at UBC's Media Relations Department                        Guest: Dave Wharf Evo's Senior Manager of Customer Operations

Chapter 1

Over the past few years, metro Vancouver has seen major upgrades to transit and transportation across the region. Officials believe that the things like the development of the Canada Line, the extension of the Evergreen Line, or the new Port Mann Bridge, have greatly improved the commutes for thousands of residents in the area. But is that true? Research Co recently conducted a poll that looked at people's attitudes to their commutes, and the results may surprise you.

A slightly extended episode featuring philosopher Myisha Cherry discussing politics, love, and anger. The soundtrack is "Canada Line" by Lee Rosevere.

Transportation planning and policy expert Matti Siemiatycki (University of Toronto) discusses transportation policy and planning within the Vancouver context, lessons from the Canada Line, the politics of transportation planning, and the possible UBC-Broadway rapid transit line and the implications for urban development.

As I discuss in Road to Respect, building a respectful workplace culture is not about adopting a paper strategy. It is about the willingness of those in leadership to really walk the talk, to take action to ensure that the policy serves as a foundation for a truly respectful, values driven culture. Apparently, that willingness is thriving among the leaders at NSCU. Michele had nothing but positive things to say about her experience working with North Shore Credit Union. Although she was not an employee, she was immediately welcomed and made to feel like part of the team.She described a workplace where employees were engaged and passionate, working together in a supportive environment, committed to producing superior results. To top it off she even used the word respectful to describe the workplace culture. I left that meeting elated. I love to hear stories of companies, particularly those I have worked with, that are getting respect right! Wow, I thought as I made my way back to the Canada Line, you simply can’t buy such great PR. You can, however, create it. You can ensure that what I heard from Michele becomes a workplace norm when you do what they have done at North Shore Credit Union – be deliberate and strategic about creating a workplace where employees feel respected and valued. I recently sat down with Marni Johnson, Vice President of Human Resources and Communications at NSCU to find out more about what they are doing to get respect right.
