Local Government 101 with the Ministry of Municipal Affairs

With the BC local government elections coming up on October 15, 2022, the BCMA, BC Alliance for Arts + Culture, and Arts BC are discussing all things advocacy. In this special Advocacy Week podcast, Ryan Hunt, BCMA Executive Director, speaks with Marijke Edmondson, Strategic Advisor, Local Government at the Ministry of Municipal Affairs.  The BCMA has asked members for questions they have about how local governments work in British Columbia. Join Marijke and me as we discuss everything from “what’s a regional district,” to the importance of building relationships with local government staff, to why local government elections all happen at the same time.
