After the Report was tabled in Parliament in January of 2013, objections were received from several members of Parliament in relation to a number of ridings. We have now had an opportunity to consider these objections as outlined in the Fifty-Eighth Report of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs. Our consideration and decision on the disposition of these objections is contained in the Addendum that follows our Report of December 18, 2012. The Addendum includes the amendments to boundaries or names of districts that we concluded we ought to make in light of objections. We have also included amended maps to reflect such amendments. We noted in our Report that three districts had remained unchanged, but now only two are unchanged: Victoria and Vancouver East. Lastly, a few minor corrections were made to the text of certain electoral boundary descriptions in the initial version of the Report. These corrections have no impact on the electoral districts or their population numbers.

  • Responding to B.C.'S Illegal Drug Overdose Epidemic
    Responding to B.C.’s Illegal Drug Overdose Epidemic Progress Update June/July 2018 BACKGROUND Despite escalated efforts across the province, B.C. continues to see record numbers of illegal drug overdose deaths. Data from the BC Coroners Service reports 1,451 people died from a preventable overdose death in 2017 and a further 878 people have died in 2018 between January 1 and July 31, 2018. Synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl, are increasingly being detected by drug checking services and in toxicology reports, demonstrating the issue of a contaminated, poisonous illegal drug supply. The overdose crisis reaches every corner of the province and has a disproportionate impact on males and First Nations people in British Columbia. Overdose Statistics in June and July 2018 In June 2018, 107 people died from an illegal drug overdose. Deaths in June represent a 15% decrease from June 2017 (123) and an 8% decrease from May 2018 (114). In July 2018, there were 134 illegal drug overdose deaths. This is a 12% increase from July 2017 (120) and a 25% increase from June 2018 (107) The majority (72%) of people who have died in 2018 were between the ages of 30 and 59; the vast majority (90%) of overdose deaths overall occurred among those aged 19 to 59. Males continued to be disproportionately represented, with 80% of all overdose deaths in 2018 occurring in men. The majority (88%) of overdose deaths in 2018 occurred indoors. This suggests the trend of people using drugs alone or in the presence of someone who is unwilling or unable to call 9-1-1 is continuing.

  • 2018 British Columbia Building Code Public Review of Proposed Changes
    2018 British Columbia Building Code Public Review of Proposed Changes PROPOSED CHANGE: Radon CHANGE NUMBER: 2018-BCBC-11-Radon CODE REFERENCE(S): 2015 National Building Code - Division A - Subsection 1.1.3., Division B - Subsection 9.13.4. RELATED CODE REFERENCE(S): Division B / Table C-3 in Appendix C DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT: It is proposed to change the application of radon protection requirements to defer to the data established by the authority having jurisdiction and, in the absence of such data, to a revised table in the British Columbia Building Code (BCBC). PROBLEM/GENERAL BACKGROUND: The BCBC is based substantially on the model National Building Code of Canada (NBC). The NBC is updated about every five years and British Columbia adopts most of the NBC requirements into the next edition of the BCBC. However, the table of locations requiring radon rough-ins is unique to British Columbia. As such, the Province must update this table periodically. Health Canada guidelines for indoor radon concentration establish an annual average concentration of 200 Bq/m³. In locations where there is evidence of radon concentration in buildings exceeding the Health Canada guidelines, a means to address high radon concentrations in the future is required by the BCBC, should unacceptable indoor radon concentrations be found once the building is completed. 2018 PROPOSED BRITISH COLUMBIA CODE LANGUAGE (Deleted text / Added text): 1.1.3. CLIMATIC AND SEISMIC DESIGN DATA 1.1.3.1. Climatic and Seismic Values 1) <Except as required by Sentence 9.7.4.3.(2), the climatic and seismic values required for the design of buildings under this Code shall be in conformance with the values established by the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such data, with Sentence (2) and the climatic and seismic values in Appendix C.

  • The Columbia-Kootenay
    PART 9 – PROPOSED SINGLE MEMBER PLURALITY BOUNDARIES 9 F. The Columbia-Kootenay 1. Evolution of the Columbia- Kootenay electoral districts Immediately prior to the work of the 9 – PART PRO 1966 Angus Commission, there were eight electoral districts in the geograph- ical area we describe as the Columbia- Kootenay (see Kootenays, Map 1). P OSED Moving from east to west, they were: • Columbia S • Fernie INGLE ME • Cranbrook • Revelstoke • Kaslo-Slocan M BER PLURALITY • Nelson-Creston • Rossland-Trail • Grand Forks–Greenwood. B OUNDARIES Kootenays, Map 1 133 9 PART 9 – PROPOSED SINGLE MEMBER PLURALITY BOUNDARIES a. The Angus Commission (1966) The Angus Commission decided to treat the Grand Forks–Greenwood area as part of the Okanagan rather than P ART the Kootenays (where it stayed until 1999), which left seven electoral dis- 9 – PRO tricts in the Kootenays. The commis- sion was satisfied that, due to improved P OSED road access, the East and West Koote- nays should be treated as one region. S Although its population justified only INGLE ME three members in the Legislative Assembly, the commission decided that proper and effective representation M required four members. BER PLURALITY To reduce the number of electoral districts from seven to four (see Kootenays, Map 2), the commission combined the Cranbrook and Fernie B OUNDARIES electoral districts into a new Kootenay district. It also combined the Co- lumbia, Revelstoke and Kaslo-Slocan electoral districts into a new Columbia River district – although there was no great community of interest between the three portions of this new district (to be divided by Rogers Pass), improved transportation now made such a union reasonable.

  • 2019 Election: Seat Clusters June to September Survey Results
    2019 Election: Seat Clusters June to September Survey Results August 2019 2 Overview In Canada, we count seats, not vote. Just like in American Presidential elections, you can win the popular vote and lose the election. In fact, that happened to Justin Trudeau’s father in 1979. The general way analysts address that is to look at seats by region. However, seats in the same region can move differently. This release tries to get closer to reality in the seat-by-seat contest. Our analysis combines two projects: • An analysis of federal election districts (which we call “seats”) that groups them into 14 clusters based on which parties are most competitive in those seats. Given the shifting dynamics of Canada’s party system, we have relied on only the results of the past two elections. However, to assess where the parties stand in these 14 seat clusters, we need a lot of data. • A merge of the most recent three national surveys that include federal votes, creating a unweighted total of 7,555 respondents and a weighted total of 4,900. In each of our surveys, we collect postal codes. That allows us to create a riding variable for almost all our respondents and to group their responses by the riding they are in. The deck below shows the output from the analysis. The key finding is that, with the NDP in the doldrums, the Liberals are in a strong position coming into the race. Not only have they cemented their hold on last elections core seats, they may be able to gain seats to offsets the losses they will likely experience in the Toronto and Vancouver suburbs and Atlantic Canada.
