The walk to school is often a child's first step towards independence & it should be a safe one. School's back Sept. 8, so slow down in school zones & watch for kids. With ICBC & local communities, we're making streets around schools safer for kids, one crossing at a time. @lisabeare.bsky.social

Keeping students safe on their journeys to and from school is a shared responsibility. 📚✏️ As students prepare to return to school, it’s an important reminder for drivers to stay alert, obey school zone speed limits, and model safe road behaviours. 🛑 @nikisharma.bsky.social icbc.com/about-icbc/n...

Child care is essential to economic growth – and to B.C. having the skilled workforce it needs to build critical infrastructure. Today’s new prosperity agreement reflects this priority, because we know that affordable child care is life changing for families across the province.
