North Vancouver declares local state of emergency, evacuates homes due to debris from atmospheric river.
North Vancouver has declared a local state of emergency and evacuated three homes in Deep Cove due to debris from last weekend's atmospheric river, which brought 350 mm of rain. Geotechnical consultants warned that the debris in Ostler and Panorama Creeks poses a "life safety risk" for nearby properties. This follows earlier evacuations of six homes. Affected residents can access emergency support services. The situation underscores ongoing safety concerns amid extreme weather events.
