Lisa Lapointe, chief coroner, has released the following statement on her future with the BC Coroners Service and the B.C. Public Service:

New regulations will make it easier for people living in strata developments to request electric-vehicle (EV) charging stations where they live.

The Province adopted the British Columbia Building and Fire Codes (BC Codes 2024) to provide people with a greater level of building safety and to make new buildings more sustainable, resilient and accessible.

To support continued access to justice for people in British Columbia, the Province has appointed three new Provincial Court judges and one judicial justice.

Twelve new school additions will mean more student spaces as early as the 2024-25 school year in fast-growing communities across the province.

Three directors have been reappointed to WorkSafeBC’s governance board.

Amendments to B.C.’s lumber regulations will open the door for more wood products to be manufactured in the province, strengthening the forestry sector and creating more family-supporting jobs.

The Province is encouraging people to prepare and be vigilant as several weather warnings have been issued for a storm that will bring heavy rain, strong winds and snow to some areas. The storm will impact B.C. on Monday, Dec. 4, and should ease on Tuesday, Dec. 5.
