Premier John Horgan has started press conference. This is about BC Hydro's new electrification plan. #bcpoli
BC will increase public electric car charging stations across the province. #bcpoli
On when Horgan will step in to increase protections at schools, Horgan acknowledges there is anxiety among parents. Alludes to Dr. Henry and Adrian Dix coming up at 12:30pm. #bcpoli
The electrification plan is $260 million over 5 years. This includes $190 million to promote switching from fossil fuels to electricity. Also includes some rebates and charging stations. #bcpoli
On actions the government is working on to end blockades at Fairy Creek, Horgan says Teal Jones is the one that requested the injunction. "It was this government that put in the old growth review." #bcpoli
Horgan says this issue is frustrating him every day. Says there will be an announcement in the next couple of weeks. "British Columbians want to see us get this right." #bcpoli
On rapid tests coming to BC from Ottawa, Horgan says private industries are using them. "We have not missed a beat here." #bcpoli
On whether anyone in the school system should be immunized, Horgan says he would hope anyone going to a school gets immunized if they are eligible. "I believe we have the tools at our disposal." #bcpoli
