COVID-19 Community Survey conducted in 2020. Its intent is to illustrate how COVID-19 has impacted
Powell River and how respondents could be best supported during this time.
The stormy weather, followed by brief periods of beautiful calm, seems appropriate for our COVID update this week. While we still have a lot of rough weather ahead in the pandemic, we are seeing glimpses of clearer skies locally right now.

This week’s Face Behind the Mask is Tyler Brady, one of our local firefighters. People all over our community are reaching out and helping to support
one another – family and friends, but also acquaintances, colleagues,
and even strangers. From doctors and nurses to firefighters and teachers
to business owners and support staff, the strong fabric of our
community is something we can all appreciate and celebrate. That’s what this campaign is all about!
