Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said in a statement, with the cooler weather arriving, now is the time for all of us take a step back from connecting in person to staying connected in other, safer ways.

“Stepping back from our social interactions does not mean losing touch. Rather, you can continue to reach out to friends near and far with the many tools we have available to us to connect virtually. This weekend, do your part by making safe choices, using our COVID-19 safety basics and doing all we can to keep our friends, family and communities safe,” stated Henry.
