      <title>#CoffeeTalk | The One You Can’t Afford to Miss: Prompt Payment Consultation Underway (June 23, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424"&gt;&lt;span data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;A coffee date has never been more important.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;With B.C.’s Construction Prompt Payment Act (CPPA) moving closer to implementation, the window to influence how it works in practice is rapidly closing. The provincial consultation period ends July 7 and MCABC members have several opportunities to be heard.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;To support this, MCABC is convening a special Coffee Talk on June 23—and this one should be circled on your calendar.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Following a first-look session at the MCABC Leadership Conference, Brittany Schina and Katie Armitage will return to walk members through what comes next and, importantly, to hear directly from you.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Representatives from the Ministries of the Attorney General and Infrastructure are actively engaging with industry, and member feedback will play a key role in shaping the regulatory framework.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;This is more than an information session—it’s your chance to weigh in on the practical realities of prompt payment and ensure the regulations reflect the needs of mechanical contractors across B.C.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Why it matters:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;The regulations will determine how prompt payment is implemented on projects province-wide&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Industry input will directly influence key considerations and outcomes&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;This is one of the final opportunities to provide feedback before the July 7 deadline&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Coffee Talks are never mandatory—but this one comes close.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#242424" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Register now for June 23 and make your voice count.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-contrast="auto"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;* * *&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
