This fall, employers and people working in the Indigenous tourism sector will be able to grow their skills and education through new programs designed to develop careers and strengthen the sector.

To support the 111th Grey Cup in Vancouver, the Province is providing $3.5 million for a six-day fan festival and to create legacy projects that will benefit the tourism sector and local communities.

New funding for research infrastructure at B.C. universities is supporting innovative projects, like helping children in pain receive the safest, most effective pain management possible.

People experiencing or at risk of homelessness have increased access to safe housing with 80 new supportive housing units and 62 market rentals now open in Gastown.

More low-income housing will soon be available to people living in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (DTES) as the Province, through BC Housing, has purchased the 48-unit Keefer Rooms apartment building.

The Province and public-health officials are taking actions to continue protecting people, communities and the health-care system this fall and are encouraging people in B.C. aged six months and older to get their COVID-19 and influenza vaccines.
