9: A Vision
from The North · host Cabin Radio
All week, a new paper from a northern economist – warning of an "economic cliff" just years away when diamond mines close – has been reverberating around the NWT. Do we really not have a plan? What's the vision for the territory's economy? If there isn't a vision, what should it be? Hear from the economist who wrote the paper, one of the NWT ministers in charge of crafting that vision, an Indigenous business leader who expects a "wine glass economy" up ahead, and more. If you want the economic situation right now explained in half an hour, this is it.
