On March 11, marking the two-year anniversary of the pandemic, spoken-word artist Shane Koyczan performed for a small, in-person group of Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA) staff. The performance was webcasted and recorded, to be shared with all health care workers.
It was his first live performance in more than two years.
Shane gave a touching tribute to health care workers to say 'thank you' for the sacrifices and care they provided during the pandemic – and he wanted to share his words with staff and medical staff at all BC health authorities.

Shane Koyczan embarks on his first tour in two years, starting in May.
