Thank you to everyone for doing your part in the fight against COVID-19. Whether you’re a front-line health worker, an essential service worker, or are staying at home and following social distancing guidelines, what you are doing is making a difference.
This past year, COVID-19 has challenged us all in ways we could have never imagined. But every day, the people and businesses of Surrey are working hard to keep us safe and get life back on track. Our frontline and essential workers have shone brightly throughout the pandemic, and our community endures as resilient as ever. After embarking on the largest vaccination program in B.C. history, B.C. leads the way in vaccination rates. You have all played a part in this success. A most resounding thanks to all of you. If you haven’t yet done so, please register for your vaccine now at gov.bc.ca/getvaccinated or call 1-833-838-2323, or get vaccinated now at a drop-in, mobile or special event clinic. Events are listed at gov.bc.ca/vaxforbc
As we move beyond recovery, I will be here with you, as your MLA, to work for you, your family, and our community. Let us stay connected, stay kind, and stay hopeful.
