New training for police board members will provide the tools for strong and effective independent governance and oversight of municipal police agencies in their communities.

Mike Farnworth, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General, has released the following statement about the Surrey policing transition:

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.

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.

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.
