For those of you, the majority of BCers, who've been working selflessly, faithfully+perfectly for mths to stop #COVID19, & who watch #s rise w/ disappointment

I say this: don't give up. Don't lose faith. Don't lose hope.

We're counting on you. We see your sacrifice & thank you

This weekend, the best place to be in #BC is right where we live.
If you do have to travel, respect the orders+advice of the PHO.

In BC we bend the curve, not the rules. And that makes all the difference. It needs to make the difference this weekend too. https://t.co/ZZ25i2dZqt
