OISD suggests that the BC Government consider a more thorough analysis of ‘Government’s role’ prior to any enactment of Bill 12 and therefore offers OISD’s expertise and experience in the analysis process:

• Will the Community Charter Act contribute to solving strategic issues in the allocation mechanisms that hamper private investment in BC and erode social satisfaction and political stability?

• Will the Act stimulate private investment and further economic development thereby solving interrelated strategic economic, social, socio-psychological and economic behavioral and ecological issues - decreasing disparity in opportunities?

• Conversely, could the Act further hamper private investment in economic production, and erode social satisfaction and quality of life - increasing disparity in opportunities?

• British Columbia has the challenging opportunity to break new ground and be a model for government in open economic conditions. The question is, will that happen?
