David Eby sworn in as B.C.’s 37th premier, new cost of living credits announced
VANCOUVER — David Eby became B.C.’s 37th premier during a ceremony Friday morning (Nov. 18), surrounded by family, friends, colleagues and community members from throughout the province.
In a ceremony held in the Musqueam Community Centre, Eby committed to tackle head-on the challenges people are facing, while making meaningful improvements in the lives of British Columbians.
“British Columbia is a wonderful place to call home,” said Eby. “At the same time, people are feeling uncertain about the future and worried about their families. I’m proud of the work done by John Horgan and our government to put people first.”
The Premier promised swift action on the most pressing issues facing British Columbians: fixing the housing crisis, making communities safer, strengthening health care and acting on climate change.
