Premier John Horgan says his government will announce plans next week to start loosening some restrictions imposed to curtail the spread of COVID-19.
He says he's resisted laying out roadmaps as other provinces have done because people assume that's the green light to resume regular activity, but that's not the case.
Horgan also says B.C. is better off than other regions because it has allowed construction, agriculture and other industries to continue operating.
Despite looking forward to re-opening the economy, his government has extended a provincial state of emergency as he warns the province must not give up hard-won gains against COVID-19.
