The Prince George Chamber of Commerce saw all four of its resolutions win endorsement during the B.C. Chamber of Commerce's annual general meeting last week.

Two of the resolutions focused on the labour and skills shortage with one calling for technology and engineering programs at colleges and universities in all B.C. regions where the need exists and the other seeking greater emphasis on math and science in the K-12 curriculum and better coordination between the two education levels.

The third resolution called for the development of a centralized, consistent process for disclosure of property history and remediation of buildings used in drug operations.

The fourth supported introducing online voting for civic and provincial elections as a means of increasing voter engagement and increasing voting accessibility for small business owners.

The annual general meeting was held May 24-26 in Penticton.
