Dr. Bonnie Henry says she doesn't have any time for those who think wearing a mask makes them ill, or is a limitation of personal freedom

Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says she doesn't have any time for those who think wearing a mask makes them ill, or is a limitation of their personal freedom.

Dr. Henry told a news conference yesterday that she objects to people who don't want to follow the province's mandatory mask requirements. BC made masks mandatory in indoor public spaces last week.

People who refuse to wear a mask face a 230-dollar fine.

On Tuesday, BC's solicitor general announced new fines for those who refuse to follow provincial orders on wearing masks in public spaces.
