Premier John Horgan is urging British Columbians to provide feedback on how the province should spend 1.5-billion dollars earmarked for COVID-19 recovery.

Horgan says the province has been meeting with businesses, labour, First Nations and not-for-profits to get their perspective and is taking action on their ideas.

But he is also urging British Columbians to take part in an online survey, provide written input or take part in a virtual town hall to make sure the recovery works for them.

Finance Minister Carol James says the province has lost 314,000 jobs since February and rebuilding the economy is going to be a massive job.
