A comment from IDA Ireland's CEO, Michael Lohan, at a Shannon Chamber lunch in Dromoland Castle Hotel was most appropriate at a time when commentary is focused on the impact that US-imposed tariffs will have on our economy. Stating that Ireland is more than a location but an ecosystem for extraordinary, defined by its people and place, stability and support, and its ecosystem and environment, he paid particular focus to the partnership approach, the business-friendly environment and the innovativeness of enterprise, which, he said, is the cornerstone of Ireland's success in attracting and retaining investment. In an address delivered the day before the much-heralded liberation day, Lohan did caution that the global race for impactful foreign direct investment has significantly intensified and that the year ahead will be turbulent for the global economy. He cited the key enabling conditions that Ireland needs to focus on as relative cost competitiveness, planning, infrastructure delivery, talent development and innovation and its incentive offering, and that IDA's strategy through to 2029 will target opportunities in the growth drivers of digitisation and AI, semiconductors, sustainability, and health. Delivering good news to the regions, he said that IDA aims to create 75,000 jobs over that time, including delivering 550 regional investments, whilst simultaneously reducing IDA client carbon emissions by 35%, and upskilling 40,000 people. Addressing the many companies and business groupings in the room, he emphasised the need for collaboration, stating that success in an intensely competitive landscape will require an enhanced focus on partnering impactfully with key stakeholders. "The collective strength that is evident in Ireland is not repeated across the globe. The real benefits will come from collective collaboration," he added. In a fireside discussion with Fine Grain Property's CEO, event sponsor, and director of Shannon Chamber, Colin MacDonald, who moderated a comprehensive questions and answers session after the main address, Lohan responded to questions both from the moderator and from transition year students from five Co. Clare schools whose attendance at the event was sponsored by Irish Rail. Responding to a question on tariffs, he said they were counterproductive and negative for productivity and that it was critical that space be created for discussion post the tariffs' announcement. When questioned on the impact of delays in the Irish planning system he called on everyone in the room to urge those within their sphere of influence to think before they make an objection to a planning application. While accepting that opinion is valued and critical, he said that it must be timely and not stymie agility in the planning system and, when planning concerns critical national infrastructure, he said that everyone needs to play their part in ensuring that they are delivered in a timely fashion. With a pending shift in global trade, looking to the future he said that to compete on a global stage, Ireland will have to play to its strengths, stay nimble, and trust its ability and capability to influence. Complementing Shannon on its unique ecosystem for business, he called for increased collaboration to bring additionality to the entire region. "Ireland is competing globally, not on a location-by-location basis," he added. Responding to this call, Shannon Chamber president Eoin Gavin said that it was the collective ambition of everyone attending the lunch to ensure that we continue to provide the infrastructure that will attract further investment in the areas set out in IDA's strategy 2025 - 2029 and in the newly developing landscape of digitalisation and artificial intelligence (AI) and sustainability. "We are very much heartened by the fact that a key goal of IDA is to deliver regional investments. This will bolster the 165,000 job numbers already delivered by IDA Ireland client companies in regional locations across ...

In this episode, Will talks with Colin MacDonald, co-founder of Not Therapy Coaching. Colin shares his journey from being a wilderness therapy client and therapeutic boarding school student to graduating college and then entering the work-force.  Not finding deep meaning in his initial career path, Colin decided to become a certified young adult life coach to help others. He recounts the challenges he faced as an adolescent, including struggles with ADHD, depression, and substance abuse, and how wilderness therapy helped him turn his life around. Colin also discusses the mission of Not Therapy Coaching, which aims to bridge the gap between therapeutic programs and successful transitions to home, college, or independent living. He emphasizes the importance of spending time outdoors for mental health and how it benefits both him and his clients. Colin further explains the unique approach of Not Therapy Coaching, highlighting the role of relatable mentorship and community building. He details how the program supports young adults and teens by providing daily accountability, fostering healthy habits, and helping them find communities that support their interests and goals.

This episode offers valuable insights into the transformative power of wilderness therapy and the innovative ways Not Therapy Coaching is making a difference in the lives of young people.

For decades, the names John Risley and Clearwater Seafoods were practically synonymous. The story of Clearwater's founding is the stuff of legend in Atlantic Canada.It's a story of how John and his business partner Colin MacDonald started selling lobsters in a store on the Bedford highway in 1976 … and how they grew Clearwater into a global seafood giant. As the Chairman and CEO of CFFI Ventures, Risley has been involved in many other enterprises throughout his career – including telecommunications, space technology and green hydrogen – but Clearwater is what started it all.So it was big news when, in 2020, Clearwater was sold to a joint venture that included a coalition of Mi'kmaw First Nations. It was described as “the single largest investment in the seafood industry by any Indigenous group in Canada.”In a candid conversation with Goldy Hyder on the Speaking of Business podcast, John Risley recounts that historic sale, reflects on the business risks he's taken, and reveals why the world is now courting Atlantic Canada's ocean economy. Revealing and insightful conversations with Canada's top innovators, entrepreneurs and business leaders. Listen to more episodes here: thebusinesscouncil.ca

This week I look at some prominent cases brewing in Nova Scotia, along with a few situations of national scope. In NS, Provincial Court Judge Rickola Brinton is suing the Provincial Court and the former Chief Judge over trying to get her to declare her vaccination status back in 2021. Judge Brinton is looking to stay on long term disability and be paid out until she is age 65 over the issue. The federal crown is threatening to charge the Halifax Examiner, over their coverage of the Randy Riley trial, particularly their publication of details of a witness who appears to have been abusing the witness protection program. Colin MacDonald, one of the wealthiest Nova Scotians, is being accused of sexual misconduct by a former IWK Foundation fundraiser. I examine what his defenses might be. Nationally, the Supreme Court of Canada struck down environmental assessment legislation brought in by the federal Liberals in 2019, whereby 'special projects', such as pipelines, would be subjected to a special procedure. I also discuss the gender/pronoun/parental rights situation in Saskatchewan, and the Ottawa trucker convoy trial.

Local fundraiser and activist Liz LeClair recently filed a civil suit in which she alleges sexual harassment and sexual assault against Colin MacDonald, a co-founder of Clearwater Seafood. None of the allegations have been tested in court. Portia interviews Liz LeClair and her lawyer.

Clearwater co-founder John Risley has come a long way from the days when he and Colin MacDonald sold lobster out of the back of a pickup truck on the side of the Bedford Highway — except that's entirely not true. In his new book, Quentin Casey busts some myths and also sheds a lot of light on the enormously successful Nova Scotian businessman. It's called "Net Worth: John Risley, Clearwater, and the Building of a Billion-Dollar Empire."

This week Colin MacDonald of Fine Grain Property takes a seat in the executive chair, having spend 30 years in Singapore.
