Here is a listing of all major projects in the City of Vancouver as of March 2008 according to the BC Major Projects Inventory. The projects listed on this page represent over 5% of the GDP of British Columbia. I was amazed at how many of these projects are government money. One could say that the intervention of government project funding has caused the labour shortage that is often talked about here.

Total number of major projects in the City of Vancouver: 66
Total value of all major projects in the City of Vancouver: $10,432,000,000
Majority of work is complete by late 2008 through early 2009.
You may ask where the YVR expansion and Canada Line are and they are categorized under Richmond for an additional $3,775,000,000 in development costs. Both those major projects complete in 2009.
What happens when all those projects finish, all the money is spent and all the workers go home?
