People at risk of or experiencing homelessness in Kelowna will soon have access to 60 new temporary homes with the opening of Balsam Place.

New support for food and beverage manufacturers throughout the province will create jobs, strengthen local supply chains, establish new B.C.-made products and increase food security for people in British Columbia.

Garry Begg, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General, has released the following statement about the Civil Forfeiture Office’s sale of the Hell’s Angels Kelowna clubhouse:

People who use transit in Kelowna will see new services being added between University of British Columbia Okanagan (UBCO), Rutland and downtown, and additional trips on many other routes, as well as improvements to the Mission area and an expanded taxi-supplement program.

The Province is contributing $2 million through its Innovative Clean Energy (ICE) fund to establish a battery innovation centre at the University of British Columbia’s Okanagan campus (UBCO).

Seniors living in Kelowna and throughout the Central Okanagan will have access to new and improved long-term care as Interior Health prepares to build a new care community at the Cottonwoods Care Centre.
