This week, we’re joined by Gordon Price, former Vancouver City Council member and former director of The City Program at Simon Fraser University. Price talks about Vancouver’s historical importance as well as its future. We chat about transport, the great west coast melting pot, and what folks should check out if they go visit the city.
Jeff Wood is the creator of the Talking Headways podcast and editor of the newsletter The Overhead Wire.
