COVID-19 is an unprecedented challenge for the global health system and our economy. The pandemic has triggered a cascade of temporary business closures and job loss across Canada and within B.C. We are likely through the worst of the economic downturn and can set our sights on the recovery which is unlikely to be swift, nor a return to normal operations. This webinar discusses the economic impacts of COVID-19 on the regional economy, and Central 1’s expectations for the recovery of the economy and impacts on housing markets, presented by Central 1’s Deputy Chief Economist, Bryan Yu.


This webinar was sponsored by Vancity.
