Premier David Eby is leading a trade mission to Asia to grow B.C. businesses, create good jobs for British Columbians and strengthen the supply chains people depend on for goods and services.

People will get a say in how future buildings are constructed in B.C., including cooling requirements and accessibility standards, as the Province launches a survey on proposed changes to the BC Building Code.

Beginning June 1, 2023, communities in British Columbia can apply for funding aimed at helping seniors lead independent, active lives.

During the spring legislative session, Premier David Eby and the B.C. government focused on the issues that matter most to British Columbians – passing new laws and introducing solutions to help reduce costs for families, build more affordable homes, strengthen public health care, and train people for the opportunities of the future.

Brenda Bailey, Minister of Jobs, Economic Development and Innovation, has issued the following statement in recognition of B.C. Economic Development Week:

New changes to the Province’s building code will ensure cleaner, more efficient buildings are built in line with B.C.’s commitment to zero-carbon new construction by 2030.
