It's an issue that sits at the intersection of Canada's identity and reality. Our country is extremely diverse and pro-immigration, but a massive housing crisis means we simply don't have enough homes for everyone who needs one.This week, Canada's housing minister said the government would consider a cap on the number of international students who can enter the country, in hopes this might ease the housing crunch. Would it? What are the trade-offs to such a move? And is there a risk that the housing crisis pushes more Canadians towards anti-immigration sentiment?GUEST: Laura Dhillon Kane, Ottawa bureau chief, Bloomberg News

Empower Clinics CEO Steven McAuley joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news the company has received accreditation for mobile services for COVID-19 testing through the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC Diagnostic Accreditation Program for Laboratory Medicine McAuley telling Proactive this designation allows the company to offer testing solutions at any location a client wants including larger groups like hotels, cruise ships, workplace, or conference venue. Empower is currently providing COVID-19 testing at the Port of Vancouver, Canada Place and Fairmont Waterfront Hotel.

Empower Clinics CEO Steven McAuley joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news Empower Clinic has officially launched COVID-19 testing for cruise travel passengers in Vancouver, Canada. McAuley telling Proactive, Ceres, the company they are contracted with, handled almost 1.1 million passengers and 300 vessels at the cruise terminal. Passengers can visit the Empower Clinics website to book COVID-19 testing solutions that include rapid antigen and rapid PCR tests offered at clinic located in the Fairmont Waterfront Hotel -- adjacent to the port terminal at Canada Place or virtually via telehealth.

Ep 356 - Will the cruise ships ever come back? Guest: Ian Robertson   Where have all the cruise ships gone?   They were a long time coming.  It's important to remember they didn't come here by chance.   In the 1980s, the Honourable Grace McCarthy set her sights on building a sustainable tourism business and she knew the growing Alaska cruise ship industry was a perfect fit. She worked with the Feds and built Canada Place in Vancouver, not just as a convention centre but also as a world class cruise ship terminal that would bring millions of passengers and their money to Vancouver.   In the 1990s, the focus expanded to include rebuilding Ballantyne Pier and to include Victoria. And it worked brilliantly. Central to the success of the campaign is a provision in the Jones Act called the Passenger Vehicle Services Act, which requires ships carrying passengers to stop at a foreign port between two US ports.   This provision meant Vancouver and Victoria were perfectly located in the Alaska cruise ship industry. Ships could travel from Alaska to British Columbia and back again, or Alaska, BC and Seattle and back again. In 2018, “Cruising in Alaska” reported “about 3.8 million port-of-call cruise passenger visits, or approximately 61%, of all port-of-call cruise visits in the United States,” making Alaska the number one cruise destination.   Over the last three and a half decades, Canadian governments appear to have taken the industry for granted, so much so that when Alaska reached out to Premier Horgan and Prime Minister Trudeau to find a way around the Canadian government's COVID closed-border rules, neither leader even returned the call or email.    Rather than sit by and do nothing, Senator Mike Lee of Utah introduced three bills (that weren't approved) to repeal the PVSA, saying it is blatantly “Canada First” and it needs to go. Then Alaskan Senator Lisa Murkowski introduced a bill that was passed and now allows cruise ships to bypass Canada while our border remains closed.   Stuart McNish invited Ian Robertson, the CEO at the Greater Victoria Harbour Authority, to have a Conversation That Matters about why taking the cruise ship industry for granted is a bad idea.   Please become a Patreon subscriber and support the production of this program, with a $1 pledge https://goo.gl/ypXyDs

Now to this week's episode.   The Port of Vancouver is a busy mix of traffic on the water – cruise ships, grain ships, automobile transport ships and container ships to name but a few of the 12,ooo ships that call in to port every year.   Vancouver is one of the most complex ports in the world. The reasons are many: the port is federally controlled, it’s within the province of British Columbia and there are 16 different cities or municipalities and several Coast Salish First Nations lands that are home to shipping facilities.   There are so many elements within the Greater Vancouver region that intersect with the cities that play host to the Port; it’s hard to know where city boundaries end and the Port’s jurisdiction begins. There is a vast array of roads and rail lines that are all on Port land and while you may have some access to certain stretches of the shoreline, it’s up to the Port to decide if you can get close to the water.   The Port owns the land, it controls its use and it is responsible for many of the transportation decisions throughout the region. The expansion of the Port Mann Bridge and highway, as you will recall, was to enhance the “Gateway” image.   It has worked. Port Metro Vancouver is a success. It is Canada’s largest port and it handles an enormous amount of cargo. In fact it is the most diversified port in North America. In 2018, more than 146 million tonnes of product worth more that $200 billion passed through the port.   In total, there are 27 major marine cargo terminals that are served by three Class 1 railroads and related services. And let’s not forget the Canada Place cruise terminal, which is homeport to the Vancouver–Alaska cruise industry.   The economic impact of the Port is substantial. More than 115,000 people are directly or indirectly reliant on the Port for their paycheck which totals more than $7 billion annually in wages.   The port authority manages over 16,000 hectares of water, more than 1,000 hectares of land and close to 350 kilometres of shoreline.   Not wanting to sound like an advertisement for Port Metro, but I encourage you to watch the interview I had with Peter Xotta from Port Metro Vancouver https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2op-v_tEKg&t=50s and to also visit the port’s website where it lists its responsibilities, which include but are not limited to safety and security, permitting, environmental reviews planning, transportation operations, infrastructure development, customer service, communication, collaboration and real estate management.   The latter of which brings me to our Conversation today.   The Port of Vancouver is so big and it works with enormous companies and it’s all just over there beyond your view – until today, when our guest, the President and CEO of Global Container Terminals, said you as a taxpayer deserve to know how the administrators of the Port do business.   He claims they are about to make a land use and terminal decision that is a conflict of interest. Doron Grossman says the port wants to bump his company off the bidding list to expand Deltaport to double its current capacity by 2030.   We invited Doron Grosman to join us for a Conversation That Matters about where to draw the line when an authority with too much power determines it can do as it pleases. Conversations That Matter is a partner program for the Center for Dialogue at Simon Fraser University.

Cast your mind back to the 80s - before the days of Expo. Can you remember what Vancouver was like back then? Before the SkyTrain, before Canada Place, back when there was still quite a bit of industry along False Creek?   Think about all the change we've seen in just a couple of decades. How did Vancouver transform itself from a run-of-the-mill kind of place, to this modern metropolis that attracts tourists from across the globe, and that routinely gets celebrated as one of the most “liveable” places on Earth?   Well, my next guest was one of the people at the heart of the action as Vancouver went through all of this change. Larry Beasley was the co-chief planner for the City of Vancouver for 15 years, and he's the author of a new book, Vancouverism, that takes a look at the remarkable change of the city so many of us call home.   Guest: Larry Beasley Former co-chief planner for the City of Vancouver Author of Vancouverism
