And when I was doing that, I was interviewing everybody that was participating in creation of it, and one of the academics was saying that in her education, they were taught that leadership is about having a vision and being able to make a bunch of different people work towards your vision.
Kieran BrownieGUEST

What were you thinking about today and what would you like to ask our two guests?
Judith MarcuseAUDIENCE
Well, as someone who was around when our community tried and successfully tried to clean up Howe Sound, where it took over a decade, and someone who is very concerned about the LNG development, which is on the Sound, in which we'll see large tankers going up and down the Sound, I'm triply concerned right now with the effect of the Pacific Link initiative on our coastal waters, especially around Vancouver, not only the health of the waters, but we have orcas, which are endangered species.
Judith MarcuseAUDIENCE
I wonder if your guests have any sense of what the potential impacts might be of this latest iteration of economic so-called development and its huge dangers for our natural world.
