To help keep people safe and re-establish the movement of critical goods and services following severe flooding and landslides, the Province is taking temporary measures to ensure fuel (gas and diesel) is prioritized for essential vehicles, while keeping it available to British Columbians.

Brenda Bailey, Parliamentary Secretary for Technology and Innovation, Anne Kang, Minister of Advanced Education and Skills Training, Grace Lore, Parliamentary Secretary for Gender Equity, and Jennifer Whiteside, Minister of Education, have issued the following statement in support of B.C. Women and Girls in STEAM Week (Nov. 1-7):

The Province is helping small and medium-sized businesses adapt to the post-pandemic economy by giving more people the training they need to succeed.

With British Columbians achieving nearly 80% adult Dose 1 vaccine coverage and COVID-19 case counts continuing to decline, the Province is safely moving to Step 3 of its four-step restart plan on July 1, 2021.

The Government of British Columbia is teaming up with a world-renowned professor from University College London (UCL) to advise on the future of the economy as B.C. develops a long-term economic plan that will steer the province through the post-pandemic era.

With more than 60% of adults vaccinated with their first dose and COVID-19 case counts and hospitalizations steadily declining, British Columbia is moving forward with the cautious first step of a four-step plan for a careful and safe restart.
