Ingram Replay for February 15, 1999
John R. Winter - President, B.C. Chamber of Commerce





 
David spends the entire hour with John R. Winter, president (still in 2008) of the British Columbia Chamber of Commerce. The BC Chamber represents (at that time) 132 chambers of commerce around BC.
  • The "Board of Trade Act"
  • John is also called "The father of the Indy" referring to the Indy race
  • Movement toward the self-employed sector and the increase  of wormen's participation in the business community
  • Business benefits of belonging to chambers include group rates for insurance, life, dental, medical, etc.
  • Making things like dental coverage tax deductible
  • Working with "COG" - Council of Governments to find ways of taking advantage of technology to pre-clear border (US/Canada) traffic.
