Publisher-reported update

2026-08-26

The Ministry reports the breakdown of the BC Employment and Assistance program each month by the 75 municipalities with the highest BCEA caseloads (i.e. both income assistance and disability assistance). This data is from 1995 onwards and includes counts for cases, recipients and dependent children. Each month the top 75 municipalities are determined based on the total BCEA caseloads over the last 24 months. Those top 75 municipalities are then provided over the entire timeseries – from 1995 to most recent.
