Premier David Eby has issued the following statement marking B.C. Day:

Racialized people can now share their perspectives in culturally safe spaces as 68 organizations across B.C. receive more than $300,000 to engage community members on the development of new anti-racism legislation.

More newcomers to the province will be able to find rewarding, skilled jobs in their communities through several new and innovative programs offered through the Immigrant Employment Council of BC (IEC-BC).

People with international credentials will be better supported to get their professional credentials recognized in B.C. and start working sooner in their field.

Everyone living in B.C. is encouraged to take the BC Demographic Survey to help identify systemic racism in government services.

People are encouraged to share their thoughts through an online questionnaire about how government can best address systemic racism.

The Province takes another step improving access to government programs and services for Indigenous Peoples and racialized communities, with the release of 12 priorities for anti-racism research.
