B.C. Premier authorizes ‘eggs-emption’ allowing Easter Bunny to travel freely

If you're looking for some eggs-ellent news to share with your kids during this stressful time, this is it.

Premier of B.C. John Horgan has officially authorized an "eggs-emption" for the Easter Bunny.

That means that the Easter Bunny will be exempt from the travel restrictions put in place during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Premier is confident that the Easter Bunny is taking extra care during this time to follow CDC guidelines, and we all know that he is an expert in social distancing.

Although he may not make it to every home, the Easter Bunny will be out and about hiding eggs and doing his best to spread easter joy to children stuck at home.
