Description: How to safely increase our opportunity for broader social interaction by carefully relaxing what are very taxing social-distancing measures How to safely and sensibly reboot the economy as much as possible, while keeping people safe This is not a simple trade-off, but an extremely complex exercise for all of us in optimizing the physical, mental, social, and economic health of the people of British Columbia in the face of an epidemic that is more challenging than we have seen in generations. This plan sets out the proposed dimensions of this balancing act based on hitting a “sweet spot” using dynamic modelling based on BC data – moving from the current targeted lockdown restrictions resulting in approximately 30% of normal social interaction, toward a sustainable 60% of social interaction, with restated levels of targeted restrictions

Description: In much of the world, the idea that workers should have to choose between going to work sick or losing a badly-needed paycheque is absurd. Yet in British Columbia, that’s the choice faced by sick workers every day — because most BC workers don’t have access to paid sick leave.

Description: In May 2021, the BC government responded to public calls led by the labour movement and legislated a permanent paid sick leave program to begin in January 2022 under the Employment Standards Act. The province is now consulting with the public as well as business over how that program will work: including qualifying requirements, benefit levels and funding. This report is our contribution to that discussion. We’ve looked at the evidence from BC and elsewhere, drawing on public health, economic and other published literature, as well as the real-life experience of programs in jurisdictions around the world. This research and experience confirm that paid sick leave should be a right of employment for all workers—one that protects society from broader contagion and illness, and benefits and helps not only workers and their families, but businesses of all sizes as well.

The application was announced today by the Nuu-chah-nulth Tribal Council, Heiltsuk Nation and Tsilhqot’in National Government in an effort to gain information from the B.C. Ministry of Health on where new cases are – without disclosing a person’s identity.

Businesses and service providers are struggling to stay fully operational due to a lack of healthy and available staff. At the same time, many workers who are healthy enough to work in person fear they will not remain that way due to a lack of adequate protections. Below, we look at local examples of this: more closures of LifeLabs testing centres, and concerns from regional district and childcare workers.
