Why Yuri Fulmer wants to be the next leader of the BC Conservatives
2026-03-18 | 21 mins.
Businessman Yuri Fulmer argues why she should be the next leader of the Conservative Party of British Columbia. The global chair of United Way Worldwide explains how he's watched his province's health care, education, and public safety systems gradually eroded over three decades. Fulmer advocates growing the economy through more natural resource development, addressing the province's record $13.3 billion dollar deficit through efficiency rather than cuts, and protecting property rights amid concerns around Indigenous land title decisions. He insists he would be a leader who would allow his MLAs to speak freely, while maintaining discipline amongst a fractured conservative movement. In the next few weeks, The Hub will interview the lead contenders vying to become leader of the BC Conservatives, and the next leader of the Official Opposition.

Trevor Tombe, professor of economics at the University of Calgary, discusses how the Iran conflict is reshaping Canada's economic landscape. He analyzes the cascading effects of energy price volatility on inflation, interest rates, and consumer costs, while exploring the Bank of Canada's dilemma in responding to potentially temporary shocks. Tombe also discusses the paradox facing oil-producing provinces like Alberta, where higher energy prices strain consumers but significantly boost government revenues and economic growth.
