Invest in BC – Economic Outlook

Experts say B.C.’s economy is in for a few more years of steady if not spectacular growth, thanks in large part to northern energy projects.

Perhaps we’re a bit spoiled in British Columbia. After a few runs of economic activity that would make some of the most bountiful regions in the world blush, things slowed down some in the past year, and are projected to remain on that trajectory for the foreseeable future.

But even at a slowing pace, B.C. was among the best-performing provinces in terms of real gross domestic product in Canada last year. Much of the same is expected for 2019.
