The international climate change report has more bad news for the west coast.
Sherilee Harper of the University of Alberta and one of the 330 authors of the summary report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, there will be impacts on human health and well-being.
She says fleeing wildfires and flooding caused by climate change imposes mental-health costs.
Harper says those costs can also be indirect — the toll on farmers, for example, of not knowing what to expect from the weather or what crops would grow best.
A statement from the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says police in New Westminster responded to a call about an unresponsive one-year-old around 4:20 a.m. on Saturday.
81.0% (3,753,057) of eligible people 12 and older in B.C. have received their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine and 64.1% (2,971,793) have received their second dose.
The driver was arrested at the scene. Charges for assaulting a police officer with a weapon, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and excessive speed have been recommended against him.
The warning comes as statistics from the B.C. government show 1,251 wildfires have charred more than 4,500 square kilometres of bush since the start of the fire season on April 1.
The Public Service Alliance of Canada and its Customs and Immigration Union says the CBSA and Treasury Board Secretariat committed to resuming negotiations within hours of the strike threat.
Further measures are to be eliminated Aug. 16. People who test positive will no longer be required to isolate. Isolation hotels will close as quarantine supports end.
