The Vancouver Island Economic Alliance’s State of the Island Economic Report is an annual reading of the condition of Vancouver Island’s economy and the key issues, trends and events that shape the way we live, work, and do business.
While this report provides only a glimpse into the complexities of the Island’s economy, it sheds light on conditions and trends worth noting that could potentially affect us in years to come.
Thank you to the generosity of BC Ferries, the BC Ministry of Jobs, Trade & Technology, Coastal Community Credit Union, Nanaimo Airport, Hemlock Printers, Blackberry Creative, and the expertise of researchers and staff at MNP for supporting the Vancouver Island Economic Alliance in the production of this report.
