British Columbia Launches Economic Strategy for Golden Triangle Mining Region
On May 26, 2025, British Columbia Premier David Eby unveiled the Northwest BC Economic Growth Strategy, a comprehensive plan aimed at transforming the province’s mineral-rich Golden Triangle into a cornerstone of Canada’s new economy. This strategy seeks to harmonize economic development with environmental conservation and Indigenous partnerships, focusing on unlocking the region’s vast reserves of gold, silver, copper, and critical minerals. Premier Eby emphasized that economic development, conservation of precious water and land, and partnership with First Nations go hand-in-hand, aiming to drive private-sector investment that will benefit all British Columbians for decades to come.
