Hotel Pacifico was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as FortisBC and the Health Sciences Association of BC.

🏨🌄 Geoff and Mike welcome Sean Holman to Hotel Pacifico.  Holman, a former member of the BC press gallery and pioneer in online journalism, is now a professor in Environmental and Climate Journalism at UVIC and leading the Climate Disaster Project.  He discusses the upcoming documentary drama, Eyes of the Beast.  The hosts and Holman discuss the 2021 heat dome that killed hundreds in BC, the Lytton fire that destroyed the village, and how media and impacted residents are responding to climate-related disasters.  

In the Strategy Suite, Geoff and Mike welcome Northern Beat’s Fran Yanor, who sits in for Kate.  The trio discuss pipeline battles, LNG, the government’s announcement of involuntary care beds and how Fentanyl crisis is impacting rural BC, and how the Conservatives fared in the recent session.

Join Mike McDonald, Kate Hammer, and Geoff Meggs for insights and interviews covering the latest in B.C. politics.
