No matter, relatively couple of fines have been gathered from those who’ve violated provincial well being orders or refused to comply with police officers’ orders in connection with them.

In accordance to ICBC, $659,410 worthy of of fines has been imposed after 1,058 tickets were issued from August 21, 2020 to February twelve, 2021.

As of February 14, only $34,956.66 has been compensated in connection with these provincial offences.

Which is less than 5 per cent of the whole total owed.

Most Quarantine Act fines also unpaid

The next totals of provincial fines have been issued in these places:

* $391,000 for violating provincial well being officer Dr. Bonnie Henry’s get on gatherings and situations

* $seventy one,three hundred for contravening the PHO Food and Liquor Serving Premises Order 

* and $197,110 for refusing to comply with path from regulation enforcement.
