The Province has received the final investigative report about the challenges of repeat offending and unprovoked, violent stranger attacks that some communities are facing.

Premier John Horgan and Murray Rankin, Minister of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation, have issued the following statement on Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation:

Improving care for people in British Columbia is central to investments in workers as the Province launches a health human resources strategy to optimize the health system, expand training and further improve recruitment and retention.

The Province is highlighting several commitments to programs that make sporting activities more affordable for families and empower under-represented children and youth to jump back into sport and physical activities, regardless of family finances.

The Province, TransLink and BC Transit are celebrating one year of providing free public transit for kids 12 and younger, as part of its investment in affordable, safe and sustainable transportation for people.

Starting in December, parents in British Columbia will save as much as an additional $550 per month for each child they have in participating licensed child care centres.

To celebrate BC Culture Days, from Sept. 23 to Oct. 16, 2022, the Province is providing support for free and affordable activities and events throughout British Columbia.

Government is providing $4 million in post-pandemic recovery funding to reignite the amateur sport sector by rebuilding sport membership and bolstering volunteerism.
