We’ve heard from homebuilders across B.C. - they want to build homes, but rising costs are a challenge. Today, we’re making it easier to get homes built by development costs to occupancy with a 25% deposit up front.
Lowering the costs of building much needed homes across BC🙌🏾
🧬Healthcare innovation doesn't just improve outcomes, it saves lives!
With nearly half of BCers expected to face cancer in their lifetime, our new $2.83 million investment in digital pathology tolls provides faster, more equal access to medical testing, especially for rural & remote communities.

Women and gender-diverse people face unique health challenges that are often overlooked – like #menopause. That’s why the new Complex Menopause Clinic at BC Women’s Hospital is such a welcome step towards advancing more compassionate care, right here in B.C. (1/2) @j-blatherwick-mla.bsky.social

As rents and new home prices come down across B.C. we are working on reducing costs so we can continue to see new housing supply.
Last week we announced deferral of Development Cost Charges for new homes.
This week B.C. Hydro stepping up to lower costs and expedite new connections.🙌🏾
Hate has absolutely no place in B.C.
Our government is taking action through expanded funding for our B.C. RCMP Hate Crimes Unit.
This investment ensures enhanced investigations, stronger support for victims, and reaffirms our commitment to building a safer and more inclusive province for all.
We want to keep growing our tech sector to create even more opportunity for British Columbians.
The changes we've made will help employ more than 20,000 people in B.C. and add more than $1 billion to the province’s gross domestic product every year.

VICTORIA — The British Columbia government is boosting a tax credit to help developers of video games like Electronic Arts hire additional staff and invest money locally.
We've lowered the cost and sped up the timeline for new homes and businesses connecting to BC Hydro. 🔌
A simple connection to a new single-family home has dropped by more than 90% - from over $800 to now be as low as $64. 🏡
