British Columbia's N-D-P government is set to outline its political agenda for the coming months with a throne speech today at the legislature
British Columbia's N-D-P government is set to outline its political agenda for the coming months with a throne speech today at the legislature.
The speech kicks off the next session of the house and Premier John Horgan, who recently underwent treatment for throat cancer, will be among the returning politicians.
Kevin Falcon was elected leader of the B-C Liberals last weekend, but Shirley Bond will continue to perform leadership duties in the house as he tries to win a seat in a byelection.
The throne speech comes two weeks ahead of the government's budget, which is expected to include a financial accounting of last fall's devastating floods and mudslides in southern B-C.
