Premier John Horgan has set out his priorities for a better B.C. in mandate letters to each of his cabinet ministers. These letters were released publicly today.

“Under the Liberal government, families were ignored and left behind. Our priority is helping people and finding solutions to the problems they face,” said Premier Horgan.

“I expect my ministers to work hard every day to deliver on our commitments and make life better for people. It will take time to fix the problems, but we’re committed to getting it done, one step at a time.”

Premier Horgan has instructed his cabinet to deliver on three key priorities for a better British Columbia:

• Relief for families from rising costs and fees;
• Better services for people, including health care and education; and
• Good jobs and economic opportunity throughout B.C.

The letters outline specific commitments in each minister’s area of responsibility that achieve these three aims.
