Each year, the Institute of Healthcare Improvement holds its annual forum in December. Over 4 days, between 3 to 4 thousand healthcare quality improvers from across the world join together for a packed program of workshops, QI project reports, improvement science education and keynote lectures from renown speakers. This year, a large contingent of Canadians made the trip including some from Northern British Columbia so we decided to bring these Northern Physicians together for a fun panel discussion about their experiences and what they learned from this year's forum. This is the recording of that discussion moderated by our regular Qualitycast North host Dr. Shyr Chui. We talk about our key takeaways, Dr. Anthony Fauci's keynote, power networking and tips for first-time forum attendees.

Doubleview Gold Corp CEO Farshad Shirvani joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's 2024 drilling program at the Hat polymetallic mineral deposit in Northern British Columbia, which has now surpassed 7,500 meters and is continuing. Shirvani shared with Proactive that the first assay results from the 2024 drilling season are expected soon. The drilling program aims to expand the mineral resource, address areas with limited drilling data, and extend the deposit's lateral and depth boundaries, which remain open in all directions. Visual results from the drilling align with the projections from the block model, giving confidence in the resource's potential. The Hat deposit contains key critical minerals defined in Canada's Critical Minerals Strategy, including copper, cobalt, and possibly scandium, along with other minerals. This ongoing work is expected to significantly enhance understanding of the deposit and move it closer to potential future development. #proactiveinvestors #doubleviewgoldcorp #tsxv #dbg #otcqb #dblvf #mining #hatproject #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

In this conversation,

John Brink was born in Nazi-occupied Holland at the onset of World War II. From a young age, he and his siblings foraged for food while their mother raised them alone after their father was drafted into the Dutch Army. They learned of his fate only when their village was liberated by Canadian soldiers on April 12, 1945. This moment sparked John's determination to build his life in Canada. Despite the challenges of living with post-traumatic stress disorder, John apprenticed at a major Dutch lumber company, rapidly advancing in the industry. His expertise and connections in European forestry would later prove invaluable. In July 1965, John emigrated to Canada with $150 and one suitcase. Arriving in Prince George, B.C., with just $25.47, he initially found work as a cleanup man at a sawmill. His hard work and growing expertise soon led him to a supervisory role. By 1967, John managed a sawmill in Watson Lake, Yukon, where he also developed a business plan for a lumber manufacturing facility. Returning to Prince George in 1972, he founded Brink Forest Products Ltd. in 1975 with a $25,000 loan and three employees. Pioneering the finger-jointing of dimension lumber in Canada, Brink Forest Products Ltd. has grown to become the largest secondary lumber manufacturer in Canada and a major producer of finger-jointed studs, exporting 90% of its product to the U.S. John's contributions extend beyond his company. He served as the longest-serving director (35 years) of the Council of Forest Industries, founded the B.C. Council of Value Added Manufacturers, and was a key figure in the Wood Works Initiative. He also played a crucial role in five softwood lumber disputes with the U.S. and challenged unfair international grading rules, which nearly jeopardized his company but ultimately led to significant industry changes. In 2005, Brink's $500,000 donation established the John A. Brink Trades and Technology Centre at the College of New Caledonia, addressing the need for a skilled workforce in the Canadian forestry industry. His philanthropic efforts extend to over $500,000 annually for more than 50 charities and sponsorships of athletes, including those in the Special Olympics. John has been recognized with the BC Community Achievement Award, an honorary Doctorate of Laws from the University of Northern British Columbia, and the Order of B.C. in June 2019. In September 2019, he committed a $1 million donation to the College of New Caledonia to support the Trades and Technology Centre, aiming to create a Centre of Excellence to enhance Northern British Columbia's workforce and economy. https://johnabrink.com// https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnabrink/

Paul: You know, you moved up here and one of the first things you did as a teacher in Prince George - was it UNBC at the time when you moved here – the University of Northern British Columbia? Barry: No, it was the College of New Caledonia. Paul: And you were teaching English in a welding class? BM: Yup, it was a technical school. We moved into a technical school before they built the college. PN: And this is 1969? BM: Yeah, 1969. But in that first year here we taught out of the high school. We'd start teaching at three in the afternoon after the high school was out, so we were a night school. We were kind of interlopers. The high school teachers thought, “oh, here are these smarty pants academics coming in and taking over the functions that we've provided!”

Officials say they are seeing structural damage to 30-50 per cent of Jasper, Alta., after a wildfire roared through the community late Wednesday. Our first guest is Phil Burton, Professor Emeritus in the Department of Ecosystem Science and Management at the University of Northern British Columbia, to explain what is happening with the wildfire in Jasper. Next, we hear from Shirley Bond, MLA for the Prince George-Valemount area, on her fond memories of Jasper National Park. Then, we're joined by Mike Nash. He's an avid hiker who was planning to do a backpacking trip in the Park and cancelled due to the heat. He's the author of “Outdoor Safety and Survival in British Columbia's Backcountry” We take calls from our audience with reactions to seeing the destruction in the national park and its townsite, and memories of the Park and its natural beauty.

In this episode we are joined by Thomas Hendriks, an anthropologist studying capitalism and resource extraction in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Hendriks' work is amongst the most innovative in the anthropological study of capitalism, drawing upon queer theory, feminist ethnography, and phenomenology to make sense of cutting down large trees in the tropical rainforest.  Congolese logging camps are places where mud, rain, fuel smugglers, and village roadblocks slow down multinational timber firms; where workers wage wars against trees while evading company surveillance deep in the forest; where labor compounds trigger disturbing colonial memories; and where blunt racism, logger machismo, and homoerotic desires reproduce violence. In Rainforest Capitalism: Power and Masculinity in a Congolese Timber Concession (Duke UP, 2021) Thomas Hendriks examines the rowdy world of industrial timber production in the Democratic Republic of the Congo to theorize racialized and gendered power dynamics in capitalist extraction. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork among Congolese workers and European company managers as well as traders, farmers, smugglers, and barkeepers, Hendriks shows how logging is deeply tied to feelings of existential vulnerability in the face of larger forces, structures, and histories. These feelings, Hendriks contends, reveal a precarious side of power in an environment where companies, workers, and local residents frequently find themselves out of control. An ethnography of complicity, ecstasis, and paranoia, Rainforest Capitalism queers assumptions of corporate strength and opens up new ways to understand the complexities and contradictions of capitalist extraction. Elliott M. Reichardt, MPhil, is a PhD Candidate in Socio-Cultural Anthropology at Stanford University. Elliott conducts fieldwork on Dakelh Territory in Northern British Columbia, on capitalism, forestry, and colonialism. Elliott is studies contestations over profit, property and territory on Indigenous land. Elliott also has long standing interests in medical anthropology and the history of science and medicine.

This fall, I'm taking a very small group of invaders to taste whisky and hike the hills and dales of Scotland. We still have two spots open.

I just got back from another trip into the wilds of Northern British Columbia. It snowed last week while I was driving up but cleared up in a couple of days leaving everything very wet and sloppy. There must have been over 100 pounds of mud on my vehicle. The bears are out and I have seen a couple of black bears along the roads. The bush is very dry this year and one place where I normally see trumpeter swans and other aquatic birds is completely dry. I will include a couple of photographs from this time last year. There is great concern about the potential wildfire situation this summer. I truly enjoy listening to the podcasts while I drive. Unfortunately, I have been unable to download the last couple of them. Has there been a change in the way they are posted? Please give my warmest regards to your family. I regret that I was unable to journey to the states this spring as there have been a number of changes on behalf of some of my clients.” Carl C emailed: “I'm disappointed you needed to do this after all these years. It detracts from the quality of the podcast.” Thank you Carl for writing. I really appreciate the feedback. As I emailed when you wrote, I am still testing the ads. I have decided I don't prefer them at the beginning of the show. So at present, at least, I'm not doing that. As I continue to test, I will only have them at the end of the show. Right now, I am leaning on the idea of keeping those on the show. Because even a little bit of money helps with finances. But I will make a final decision in July or August when I should have some better understanding of the results of my tests. Timothy Potts of Clay Babies emailed a photo: “Hi Marc, You played one of our songs last year on your show. We just released a NEW ALBUM of CELTIC FIDDLE TUNES!!! We are very excited! We recorded the whole thing live on New Year's Eve as if we were playing at a session. Here is a link to the Bandcamp page: If you play any of the sets, I'd recommend track one or track three. On November 1st my wife gave me a Celtic Podcast shirt, pint glass and some recordings for my birthday. I've been enjoying them (see attached pic)!”  

David McWalter is a retired professional engineer who was born in Dundee, Scotland in 1950. He met his high school sweetheart, Maggie, in high school and soon afterwards they embarked on an incredible journey that saw them move to Jamaica for four years, followed by a permanent move to Northern British Columbia in Canada. After high school, David wanted to become a dentist. Instead, he went to university and became a Civil Engineer. Fast forward several years and David founded L&M Engineering in Prince George, British Columbia. David' first major projects in Northern British Columbia included developing the townsite of Tumbler Ridge, as well as Burns Lake (west of Prince George). L&M Engineering soon grew to be one of the largest civil engineering firms in Northern British Columbia, helping with major projects throughout the region. Despite being "retired" for 10+ years, David is still active as a consultant, helping clients throughout Northern British Columbia with their property development plans, strategies and implementation.

EPISODE SUMMARY Join scientist and mindset & high-performance coach Claudia Garbutt and successful 83-year-old serial entrepreneur and bodybuilder John A. Brink as they discuss life lessons, surviving war, and becoming resilient.   In this episode, we talk about: - Surviving the Second World War & living with PTSD - Entrepreneurship & ADHD - Staying fit and healthy as you age   EPISODE NOTES John A. Brink was born in 1940 in Nazi-occupied Holland during the Second World War. From the time he could walk, his days often consisted of foraging for food with his brother and sister during harsh warlike conditions, surrounded by death and hardship, especially during the hunger winter of 1944/45. John's mother was left to raise her three kids alone when their father was drafted into the Dutch Army. They wouldn't know if he was dead or alive until the liberation of their village, by Canadian soldiers, on April 12, 1945. This was the exact moment when John determined he would one day move to Canada - the land of his heroes. He was only five years old when this decision was rendered. Like many others who lived through that time, John has lived his entire life with the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), resulting from being in a warzone.  After serving in the Dutch Air Force for two years, John subsequently emigrated to Canada in July 1965, arriving in Prince George with $25.47 in his pocket. John's other lifelong dream of owning a sawmill came to fruition 10 years later in 1975 with the creation of Brink Forest Products, which has since become North America's leading secondary manufacturer of value-added wood products.  At 83, John continues to success in his role as President and CEO of the Brink Group of Companies and 10+ other companies. John is the author of three books and the host of the ON THE BRINK Podcast series. He is also a fierce advocate for erasing the stigma surrounding ADHD, something John has lived with his entire life.  In his spare time, John enjoys riding dressage, body -building, philanthropy, writing, public speaking and spending time with his family, wife and animals. In recognition of John's lifelong achievements, he was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Laws Degree by the University of Northern British Columbia. Less than a month later, he also received the Order of B.C. in June 2019, the highest achievement a civilian in BC, Canada can achieve.  John committed to a $1 million dollar donation to the College of New Caledonia to help support the Trades And Technology Centre. John's vision with this donation is to create a Centre of Excellence for Northern British Columbia that helps enhance Northern work forces, economies, and population growth.    Links: ------------ Click this link to listen on your favorite podcast player and if you enjoy the show, please leave a rating & review: https://linktr.ee/wiredforsuccess   Help me keep this show running and awesome: Hit subscribe and join the tribe!

This week on the Outdoor Journal Radio Podcast Network's Diaries of a Lodge Owner, it is my pleasure to, not introduce this guy to you because you're already familiar with him, but to allow you to get to know him better. One of the cogs in the podcast network/Fish'n Canada Show machine. He's an extremely self-motivated guy, graduating from the University of Northern British Columbia, and is an outdoor writer, former guide, and outstanding angler in his own right. And believe me, he can run a mean mixing board. So, here we go, folks. Let's get to know our very own producer slash editor, and everything else in between, Dean Taylor.On this show, we get to know Dean, and talk about the life as a guide at a lodge from a guide's point of view. We talk about how he found himself working with Canada's most iconic and watched fishing television shows and what goes on behind the scenes of both the podcasting network and the Fish'n Canada television show. So if you're interested in lodge and guide life, or a peek behind the scenes of the shows we all know and love, look no further, this one is for you!

Carley Billups is a pediatric occupational therapist who has lived and worked in Prince George over the past 12 years. Carley has seen first-hand the struggles that Prince George families face in order to get funding for important medical equipment and services that support their ability to participate in daily life and she wants to help. Carley plans to run 1,000km over 13 weeks starting on December 21, 2023 in the Winter Running Challenge to raise funds for kids with disabilities in Prince George and Northern British Columbia. This will mean Carley will face many snowy, dark, lonely and cold runs during the most challenging running conditions of the year! Carley choose to do this in the winter because she knows that doing hard things is something children with disabilities and their families experience every single day. While government and extended health funding helps, often families are left trying to find thousands of dollars by themselves to pay for equipment and therapy services that are essential to quality of life, participation, and overall health of the child. Variety BC is one funding source that I know helps families with top-up funding for medical equipment. They have ensured Carley that the funds she raises in this challenge will go directly to children and families in Northern BC! Carley's goal is to fundraise $10,000 for Variety BC to make it easier for Northern BC kids to receive assistance with their equipment needs. If you would like to support Carley, please visit

In this podcast episode, Nicole O'Byrne talks to Jonathan Swainger about his book “The Notorious Georges: Crime and Community in British Columbia's Northern Interior, 1909-25”, published by UBC Press in 2023. In The Notorious Georges, Jonathan Swainger explores how the local pursuit of respectability collided with caricatures of a riotously ill-mannered settlement frontier of Prince George, British Columbia, in its early years. Anxious that the Georges were being overlooked by the provincial government and venture capitalists, municipal leaders blamed Indigenous and mixed-heritage people, non-preferred immigrants, and transient laborers for local crime. Swainger combs through police and legal records, government publications, and media commentary to demonstrate that the reputation was not only exaggerated, but also unfair as “respectable” white residents were responsible for the lion's share of the disorder. This lively account ultimately tells us about more than a particular community's identity. It also sheds light on small-town disaffection and unease with a diminished place in modern Canada. Readers interested in the history of the Canadian West, and in particular crime, social reform, and community history, will find this a fascinating and accessible exploration of the northern BC interior. Jonathan Swainger has been a professor of history at the University of Northern British Columbia since 1992. After eight years teaching in the Peace River region, he relocated to the main campus in Prince George where he has worked since 2001. His research interests are Canadian legal and crime history, and he is particularly interested in crime in the Peace River region from that took place between 1910 to 1960.
