Vancouver Rundown Thursday February 19, 2026

Close to three dozen B.C. healthcare workers snooped into the medical records of the victims being treated following the Lapu Lapu Festival attack. A report from the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for B.C. finds close to half of those injured had their privacy breached while being treated at various hospitals and healthcare facilities. The Commissioner is recommending Vancouver Coastal Health and Fraser Health institute stronger measures to prevent future breaches. On April 26 last year, the driver of an SUV hit a crowd of people leaving the festival - 11 people died and 30 others were hurt.
