911 call takers in B.C. are preparing to vote on possible strike action after months of failed contract negotiations.

Workers say the system is already under serious pressure, with staffing shortages, rising call volumes, and burnout becoming a daily reality. In 2025 alone, tens of thousands of emergency calls didn’t meet response time targets, with some taking minutes to be answered.

They handle over 2 million calls every year, often dealing with life-or-death situations, and say the current conditions aren’t sustainable.

While 911 is considered an essential service and won’t fully shut down, any job action could still impact response times.

A pause on nursing despite a province-wide shortage of nurses. 🏥

In a move that has shocked students and health advocates, VCC rejected all applicants for its fall 2026 intake. The college cites budgetary constraints caused by a drop in international student enrollment following federal permit caps. B.C.

Nurses’ Union president Adriane Gear called the decision "very concerning," noting that B.C. already has thousands of nursing vacancies. While the Ministry of Health is trying to implement new nurse-to-patient ratios to ensure safe care, Gear warns that pausing training programs makes reaching those staffing goals nearly impossible.
