  • There have been no new deaths from COVID-19 in BC in the past three days, but new cases continue to climb. There were 24 new cases in Fraser Health and 12 in Vancouver Coastal Health confirmed since Friday.

  • Young people in the Comox Valley and Port Hardy who are struggling with mental health or addiction will soon receive seamless services when they need them with a pilot project that is now being expanded.

  • Questions are being raised about the death of a member of the Canadian Forces Snowbirds.  The Ottawa Citizen newspaper is reporting the Canadian Forces knew it had a problem with the ejection seat on its Snowbirds aircraft four years ago, but did nothing about it.
