More communities in B.C. will have access to free adult literacy programs to improve basic writing, reading, math and digital skills, which will unlock new opportunities for people and help build a stronger, more resilient workforce.

Eighteen individuals are being recognized for their exceptional contributions as the Medal of Good Citizenship marks 10 years of celebrating community service in British Columbia.  

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

Fifteen people who exemplify excellence will be invested into the Order of British Columbia, the province’s highest honour.

The Province is celebrating five years of the B.C. Access Grant, a program that has helped tens of thousands of students throughout B.C. afford post-secondary education.

Construction is underway for new classrooms at seven schools across B.C., creating nearly 1,500 additional student spaces to support rapidly growing communities.
