Residents at an RV rest stop in Abbotsford, B.C., were left without water, power, or waste disposal after the province closed bathrooms and utilities without notice, prompting complaints about public safety. Transport Minister Mike Farnworth stated the closures were necessary due to ongoing vandalism and safety issues, while the City of Abbotsford expressed disappointment over the lack of communication. Although residents are not being evicted yet, they will eventually be given two weeks’ notice to leave as B.C. Housing assists them with alternative shelter. Many residents, facing financial difficulties, feel anxious about their uncertain situation.
