The
crew at BCICS has always been a busy one! For the past five months
Ryan George has been working on the project, BC Co-ops in the New
Economy which included a week of research on Malcolm Island, seven
hours north of Victoria. Ryan left for Toronto at the beginning
of May where he will begin a Masters in Economics at the University
of Toronto. He will be continuing to assist with aspects of BCICS
research.
Chris Garrish has had his paper, “Unscrambling the Omlette:
Understanding British Columbia’s Agricultural Land Reserve,”

in Canberra, Australia on Land Use Issues until August.
Sol Kinnis just returned from Cuba. Congratulations to Sol on
her marriage to Luis Mario Guerra-Beliz on March 19, 03!
