Seniors in Prince George will soon have access to more long-term care as construction starts on a new long-term care village.

Students, staff and the surrounding community are one step closer to more on-campus supports at Simon Fraser University (SFU) - Burnaby as construction starts on a new student residence and will begin later this year on a new child care facility.  

Major infrastructure projects will be built faster in B.C. as the Province aims to speed up permitting and approvals through new legislation.

Children and youth with complex care needs throughout B.C are closer to having access to a dedicated BC Children’s Hospital facility, as construction is now underway.

Students and families will have more access to affordable child care spaces and a new centre to train early childhood educators (ECE) at Capilano University (CapU) in North Vancouver. 

More children can play and exercise at safer, more-inclusive school playgrounds throughout B.C., through Budget 2025 funding.
