OMG!! Crazy Bonnie Henry is importing Hantavirus!! HERE IT COMES-THEY'RE DOING IT AGAIN! Remember Henry saying was the public face of British Columbia’s COVID-19 response starting in January 2020. Her original comments in the early phase of the pandemic were generally cautious and aimed at reassuring the public while officials gathered more information. B.C. provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry provides the latest update about the hantavirus during a news conference in the press theatre at the legislature in Victoria, B.C., on Monday May 11, 2026. THE CANADIAN PRESS- "Four Canadians who remained aboard the MV Hondius cruise ship after a deadly cluster of hantavirus cases arrived at Victoria International Airport on Sunday and are now self-isolating on Vancouver Island for at least three weeks. The plane was chartered by the Public Health Agency of Canada and Global Affairs Canada, with support from the Canadian Armed Forces, and the asymptomatic passengers were transferred directly to a secure lodging, screened and assessed. “These Canadians have been through a very difficult number of weeks, and it showed last night. They were tired, I would say exhausted, but very relieved and grateful to be back here in Canada,” said Dr. Bonnie Henry, in an update at the B.C. legislature press theatre in Victoria on Monday.
Federal public health and immigration officials announced new health measures and temporary restrictions on both travel and immigration from multiple countries in central Africa, as the region continues to face a fast-spreading outbreak of Ebola. As of Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. only possible exposure cases which are barred from entering the USA will be admitted to Canada. Air France confirmed to US media that "at the request of US authorities, [the flight] was diverted to Montreal Airport after a Congolese passenger on board was denied entry into the United States".
And we all get to pay for it!! (Gotta just love our government, eh?)
Today, the Honourable Randeep Sarai, Secretary of State (International Development), joined by the Honourable Marjorie Michel, Minister of Health, and Bienvenu-Olivier Ntumba, Member of Parliament for Mont-Saint-Bruno—L’Acadie, announced that Canada will provide $8 million in international assistance funding to support organizations responding to the Ebola disease outbreak.
A more important update, for property owners in BC.....
The Supreme Court of Canada has upheld a ruling that Aboriginal title cannot be declared over private land, in a decision the federal government says will have an impact on the Cowichan Tribes case in British Columbia.
The refusal by Canada’s High Court to hear a First Nation’s appeal against the decision in New Brunswick establishes a precedent that First Nations can seek compensation for loss of traditional lands, but they will not be able to assert ownership.
The Crown-Indigenous Relations Department says the ruling will inform arguments in other cases, including Cowichan, adding that “private property rights are fundamental."
There are now more than 1,000 suspected Ebola cases in the DR Congo, and at least 246 deaths. Neighbouring Uganda has reported nine confirmed cases and one death. A vaccine called Ervebo is approved in Canada to prevent Ebola disease caused by the Zaire virus strain. However, it is not used as a routine immunization or pre-travel vaccine; it is strictly stockpiled for emergency use. The vaccine is available as post-exposure prophylaxis for individuals in Canada who have been exposed to the virus, such as healthcare workers. It is most effective when given within 72 hours of exposure. Access Program: The vaccine is not stocked in regular clinics. It is held in the National Emergency Strategic Stockpile (NESS) and can only be accessed through Health Canada's Special Access Program via consultation with provincial Chief Medical Officers of Health.
The B.C. government spent $354,000 to produce just three novelty "wood-leather" soccer balls. Developed as a sustainable UBC innovation, these prototype balls averaged $118,000 each. The government showcased them at the Osaka Expo in Japan, which led to the project winning the Canadian Taxpayers Federation's Provincial Teddy Waste Award.The massive costs were broken down by Freedom of Information requests to include:$55,000 for the production of the three wood-leather prototypes.$133,600+ spent by the Ministry of Forests on the underlying wood-leather project.$354,000 in total combined costs, which included soft costs, additional design work, and expo promotions.If you are looking to buy regular soccer balls instead of government prototypes, prices for standard models typically range from $15 to over $100 depending on the quality.
