8 B C B U S I N E S S . C A J U N E 2 0 24 CONTRIBUTORS Vancouver-based Michael Harris is the bestselling author of three books of nonfiction, including The End of Absence, an award-winning analysis of our transition to online culture. Fitting, then, that Harris writes in this issue about a puzzling aspect of the AI revolution that is remaking our work lives (p.28). "Answer Engines," he says, "are pulling us toward a new kind of search. We'll rely on them as shortcuts to understanding. It's troubling and exciting, all at once." Victoria-based photographer Lillie Louise Major, who is origi- nally from Ireland, rarely walked the streets of Dublin without her Pentax k1000 camera. "I am really a shy person, but having a camera in my hand allows me to step into other peoples' lives for a short period of time and connect with them," she says. During her shoot with Stefan Fletcher for "Sting Operation" (p.53), she got up close and per- sonal with Fletcher's bees and learned to "stay calm and stay out of their flight path!" ON THE COVER "As a free- lancer and a mother of two myself, this shoot hit home for me. It was great to be able to photograph two successful businesswomen who are raising little ones and juggling their business at the same time." —Photographer Tanya Goehring BCBUSINESS.CA CEO & GROUP PUBLISHER Ryan Benn GROUP VP, PUBLISHING & OPERATIONS Nina Wagner EDITORIAL EDITORIAL DIRECTOR Anicka Quin EDITORS-IN-CHIEF Nathan Caddell (BCBusiness), Stacey McLachlan (Vancouver magazine) MANAGING EDITOR Alyssa Hirose ASSISTANT EDITORS Kerri Donaldson, Rushmila Rahman WINE AND SPIRITS EDITOR Neal McLennan CONTRIBUTING EDITORS Karen Ashbee, Melissa Edwards, Amanda Ross, Julie Van Rosendaal EDITORIAL INTERN Gates Annai EMAIL bcb@canadawide.com DESIGN CREATIVE DIRECTOR Jenny Reed ART DIRECTORS Stesha Ho (Vancouver magazine), Edwin Pabellon (BCBusiness) ADVISORY COUNCIL Bridgitte Anderson, Greater Vancouver Board of Trade; TC Carling, Canadian Men's Health Foundation; Victoria Emslie, Nicola Wealth; Jayne Landry, Telus; Carol Liao, UBC Allard School of Law; Matthew McClenaghan, Edgar; Jen Riley, Bosa Properties SALES REPRESENTATION VICE PRESIDENT OF SALES Anna Lee SENIOR MEDIA SPECIALISTS Brianne Harper, Mira Hershcovitch, Amy LaJambe, Sheri Stubel SALES COORDINATOR Rebecca Scutt EMAIL sales@canadawide.com PRODUCTION/ADMINISTRATION GROUP VP, EDUCATION AND ADMINISTRATION Jane Griffiths GROUP DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS Devin Steinberg DIRECTOR OF CIRCULATION Tracy McRitchie MANAGER, HR AND ADMINISTRATION Ava Pashmchi EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT TO THE CEO Hannah Dewar PRODUCTION MANAGER/DIGITAL AD COORDINATOR Kim McLane PRODUCTION ASSOCIATE Natasha Jayawardana PRODUCTION SUPPORT TECHNICIAN Ina Bowerbank OFFICE ADMINISTRATOR Celine Simpson FINANCE GROUP VP, FINANCE Conroy Ing, cpa, cma VP OF FINANCE Sonia Roxburgh, cpa, cga ACCOUNTING Terri Mason, Eileen Gajowski ADDRESS Suite 130, 4321 Still Creek Drive, Burnaby, B.C.
