May 2, 2025 - Provincial Response to US Tariffs: A Discussion with Minister Rick Glumac, BC Minister of State for Trade
Join the Surrey Board of Trade, South Surrey & White Rock Chamber of Commerce and the Ministry of Jobs, Economic Development and Innovation for a special event on how the Province of British Columbia is responding to the potential repercussions from American tariffs on Canadian goods.

- Benefits and opportunities that are available through economic diversification.
