The pandemic has been in Canada, and B.C., for one year. But today, as a member of the media, was the most disappointing day I think I’ve experienced today covering it #bcpoli#bced#covid19#COVIDBC#COVID
Today’s briefing felt like a 100 per cent scripted show. As variant cases continue to grow, we’re told B.C. has such low numbers but the attitude given off today by officials made it sound like ‘our numbers are low, we’re fine.’ #bcpoli#bced#covid19#COVIDBC#COVID
