VICTORIA — A refreshed housing plan and health care, public safety, environment and cost-of-living initiatives will be the focus of the British Columbia New Democrat government's political agenda over the coming months, says house leader Ravi Kahlon.
B.C. politicians return to the legislature Monday for the spring sitting, starting with a throne speech laying out the government's goals for the months ahead, followed by the tabling of the province's budget at the end of this month.
Opposition Liberal Leader Kevin Falcon said he's been travelling the province and wherever he goes people are expressing frustration with what he called the NDP government's lack of action on health and public safety. Eby, who replaced former premier John Horgan late last year, has introduced initiatives to bring more health-care workers to B.C., increase police officers in rural communities and pass housing legislation to speed up development and create more rental spaces.
"We are going to be bringing forward big ideas and action plans that are oriented to how do we deliver well-being," she said.
