Description
The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
3rd Session
42nd Parliament
A
Leader
of
the
official
opposition.
Thank
you,
mr
speaker,
if
there's
anything
that
the
past
two
years
have
taught
us,
it
is
the
importance
of
our
health
care
system
and
the
courageous,
dedicated
people
that
keep
it
running.
Those
who
provide
outstanding
care,
even
in
the
most
challenging
circumstances.
A
Long
before
the
covet
19
pandemic,
and
the
stress
that
came
with
it,
nurses
were
already
our
health
care
heroes,
working
long
hours
in
a
physically
and
emotionally
demanding
job
to
look
after
the
health
and
well-being
of
british
columbians
over
the
past
two
years.
Their
commitment
to
care
has
not
wavered
and
nurses
have
continued
to
look
out
for
the
people
of
this
province.
Even
during
the
most
stressful
times.
A
This
year's
theme
for
national
nursing
week
is,
we
answer
the
call,
because
our
nurses
always
do
amid
staffing
shortages
overwhelmed
in
over
capacity
hospitals
and
the
day-to-day
demands
of
the
job.
Thousands
of
bc.
Nurses
have
continued
to
answer
the
call,
and
we
are
so
grateful
for
that.
They
went
to
work
so
that
we
could
stay
home.
