The Province has released results of the independent review and public consultation of government’s operational response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  

The Province is urging British Columbians to take actions to prevent carbon-monoxide poisoning during Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week, Nov. 1-7, 2022.

To ensure B.C.’s trick-or-treaters do not get an unintended surprise this Halloween, parents and caregivers should be alert and check their little ghost’s or goblin’s candy and treats to ensure no cannabis products were accidentally handed out.

Mike Farnworth, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General, has released the following statement about the death of a Burnaby RCMP member, Const. Shaelyn Yang:

The Province is kicking off B.C. ShakeOut Week with a new, comprehensive earthquake response strategy that builds on emergency preparedness capacity to increase resilience and keep people safe during major earthquakes.

The Government of B.C. is helping communities prepare for flooding and is ready to assist in response to floods where necessary.

British Columbia is donating relief funds to the Canadian Red Cross to provide humanitarian assistance to Pakistan in the wake of devastating floods. 

A recent survey is showing positive changes in behaviour among B.C. cannabis consumers, including more responsible use and fewer people purchasing from unlicensed sellers.
