On April 23, Minister Mike Farnworth introduced measures that restrict travel within the province in an effort to limit the spread of COVID-19. At this time, all non-essential travel outside your local health authority should be avoided. This includes travel into and out of BC and between regions of the province, travel for a vacation and travel to visit friends or family outside of your household or core bubble. More info.
