BC has so many imposed restrictions which continually stunt & thwart the place. Switzerland can approximately fit into BC 23 times. Yet, BC doesn't even have the population of one Switzerland. Canada is the world's 2nd largest country in overall area. Yet, it hasn't been allowed to have 1% of the world's population.
Environmental restrictions while intentionally good, can also really slow down the growth & energy of a region.

Hopefully, and some actually believe, that there will never be a mega-earthquake in California.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diablo_Canyon_Power_Plant#Post-Fukushima_developments
Of course if there ever is a major earthquake in that part of California, the result might be a Chernobyl & Fukushima, all at once. That would be a hell of a way to reduce the population of California.

"Platforms at IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line stations between 103rd Street and 238th Street, including those at 191st Street, were lengthened to 514 feet (157 m) in 1948, allowing full ten-car express trains to stop at these stations. Unlike the other stations being extended on the line, the 191st Street station could already accommodate ten-car trains, but because the platforms were 480 feet (150 m) long, not all doors of the first and last cars could open at the station. On April 6, 1948, the platform extension project at 191st Street was completed." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/191st_Street_station#Mid-20th_century

A Helsinki-Tallinn tunnel would transform the economies of the region, creating a twin city metropolitan area and improving connectivity between Finland and the rest of Europe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvpNG1FBXss
