In the midst of a world shaken by the COVID 19 pandemic and global  anti-racism protests with demands for long overdue justice resonating , I state my commitment to listen, learn, and support the essential efforts to adopt anti-racism as the framework for our lives and actions. I urge  support for public health guidelines to optimize management of the COVID virus. As B.C.'s Dr. Bonnie Henry states, "Be kind, be calm, be safe."
