Today BC

As of today, April 8th 2022 vaccine restrictions are off as it relates to showing proof to gain access to any public places or events.

There is a federal proof that is required for travel outside the country as yet. Canada in recent years has developed a good reputation for travel visa openness and trust it would be nice to see that again..

Lets hope and do to reduce. World conflict to have that feeling of liberty again.

Here’s to better times.

So, we are in the middle of dental hygienist week today. It’s okay it’s only the 6th and it goes to the 10th but we’re not sure who’s supposed to be happy the dental hygienist or the person that needs one. You tell us who it is.

People make claims the dental health is a bellwether for your regular health so Thursday, tomorrow there’s rumor to be coming in the federal budget (the first one since the last federal election) will have something in it for dental health. Most likely a targeted program starting with children under 12. And perhaps seniors without plans. So it’s a good week to be in tune with what might be happening!

Some people have very good dental habits and more than likely they developed in childhood.

So happy dental hygienist week, might be nice to send her/ him a card they’re always sending you cards aren’t they.

Anyway, good luck with your dental aspirations, or is that aspirn-ations.

Editor’s note:

Covid-19 he’s still here in some form or another and maybe making changes. The public health system was fundamentally concerned about overwhelming the system, making it a public emergency. Vaccination is undoubtedly the number one reason they are able to remove the force of law behind measures and go to a cooperative approach. If you are not vaccinated you are still able to get severe covid-19 infection with all its consequences. We we adamantly encourage if this is you if this is case to go and get vaccinated the grief you save maybe from somebody very close to you or somebody very close to somebody else. The most unselfish thing you can do is follow the recommendations of public Health or your doctor and live at peace with your decision.
