🔴 Sadly, five more people have passed away due to COVID-19 in BC. My thoughts are with their communities and families in this difficult time.

👩‍🏫 Premier John Horgan and Minister of Education Rob Fleming announced today that parents will have the choice of sending their children to in-class instruction on a part-time basis. This return to class is optional and entirely voluntary. Families that decide not to send their children to class may continue learning from home.

This weekend we have a great opportunity to put our social distancing in action – BC Parks are open for day use! Let’s remember that many small rural, remote, and Indigenous communities may not have the ability to deal with sudden surges in COVID-19 cases. Natural beauty is everywhere in our province; let’s enjoy the benefits of wonders of the outdoors close to home this long weekend.

Be safe. Be well.
