In April, Mustel Group conducted a poll
for BCBusiness, asking 228 B.C. residents:
How much do you plan to spend on
your summer vacation? It's not surpris-
ing that younger people were more likely to
spend less, not only because of income but
also due to time constraints, says principal
Evi Mustel. "It's dictated by the work
schedules, and that correlates completely
with the amount they're going to spend."
Poll of the Month
A story in our May issue ("Driving Change")
incorrectly described Vancouver electric car
manufacturer Electra Meccanica Vehicles Corp. as
an o•shoot of Intermeccanica International Inc.
In fact, Electra Meccanica is a separate company
founded by
CEO Jerry Kroll, who also €nanced the
development of the Solo electric car.
W ho K new ?
When Karbens (@Karbenst) tweeted a photo
of Steve Burgess's story about how business
should rethink its use of plastic packaging ("Taking the Wrap,"
June) with the message "@bcbusiness @steveburgess
BTW
my issue was wrapped in plastic," we looked into the matter.
That issue of BCBusiness was indeed packaged in plastic so we
could include a bonus copy of Salmon Steward magazine, but
the bag was made of oxo-degradable responsible poly, which
breaks down in the presence of oxygen.
