The Province will honour individuals whose selfless acts of bravery and courage helped victims following the plane crash in Richmond on Thursday, Oct. 27.

Premier Christy Clark and Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General Shirley Bond will host these heroes at a special event during the week of Nov. 21 at noon at the Parliament Buildings in Victoria.

Emergency Management BC and City of Richmond officials are in the process of contacting individuals whose actions may merit recognition. While they have received identifying information from many heroes and their families, friends and colleagues, the Province and the City of Richmond want to ensure no one worthy is overlooked.

For those who have not already forwarded information, they are encouraged to send as much detail as possible by Monday, Nov. 21 to: richmondrescuers@richmond.ca
