The Monitor

Good Economy Project
An alternative economic vision for British Columbia
The Good Economy Project was created to propose an alternative economic vision for British Columbia—one that puts public investment, tax fairness and the creation of good, sustainable jobs at the core of economic policy-making.
In February 2025, the CCPA closed its BC Office. However, most of the people formerly associated with the BC Office are continuing their work at a new organization—BC Policy Solutions. An amicable separation agreement has been reached between the two organizations, and we encourage people to continue to support the good work of both the CCPA and BC Policy Solutions. The CCPA continues to ensure the voices and concerns of British Columbians are included in its national independent research, analysis and expertise and BC Policy Solutions continues to support the CCPA’s important research work on issues affecting all Canadians.
