Province makes cuts to program that helps parents stay with sick kids
BC makes cuts to program that helps parents stay with sick kids that funds housing so out-of-town parents can stay in Vancouver
Hi, I'm the assignment editor at @cheknews.ca, we covered the changes to the BCFRP Friday and are looking to continue our coverage. Would you be willing to speak to a reporter over Zoom about the impact it's having on your family? cheknews.ca/province-mak...

This is what it's like on Hwy 4 in Cathedral Grove just before the hwy was closed. The person taking the video tells me "It was scary. 5-7 ft branches raining down. Trees swaying, wind howling. I felt like a sitting duck waiting for a tree to fall." #bcstorm @CHEK_News

70,000 now without power on #VancouverIsland. Scanner is going constantly with mid-island fire department calls for trees down. Lights flickered here in #Comox as winds begin. Tweets and Blue sky posts could soon end. #BCStorm @CHEK_News
