Transportation, health, and transportation to health top agenda as Eby reaches outside big centres
Osoyoos Mayor Sue McKortoff welcomed Premier David Eby’s visit to her community as part of tour through the South Okanagan, Similkameen and Boundary regions of British Columbia.
Eby answered a wide range of questions during town hall held Friday in Osoyoos. He also visited nearby Oliver and Keremeos. On Saturday, he visited a flood-mitigation project in Grand Forks, participated in a roundtable discussion on watershed protection and met with regional leaders. “The strategy is about a few different things, but really it is about deepening connections between smaller communities and the rest of the province in a couple of different ways,” Eby said. They include improving connectivity through high-speed internet, more responsive policies designed by people in the rural regions where they live and better transportation.
He also acknowledged that government does not always have the best perspective, when it comes to health care and for that matter other issues. Eby also faced questions about small business, the impact of the short travel ban on communities like Osoyoos and the natural resource sector.
