溫哥華要聞 · 週三:盧瓦特單房出租屋遷空、三角洲可疑死亡案、伊茲拉溪野火

20 篇文章 3 天前 108

🚑 速報與事故

  1. 伊茲拉溪野火(Ezra Creek)截至週三晚上8:30已繪製為116公頃。 該火災位於卡斯特爾加(Castlegar)以北,周二被發現,先前一度誤估為250公頃後修正;不列顛哥倫比亞省野火局(BC Wildfire Service)出動直升機與滅火機,而繩降滅火小組於週三派遣,火行為升至第3級。官員表示,該火疑似由閃電引發。

  2. 夏麥蘭(Summerland)地區慘況後,省方處置預定燒除的方式遭質疑。 在福爾德(Faulder)附近的一場預定控燒原列入87公頃的風險降低計畫,但不列顛哥倫比亞省野火局尚未確認該控燒是否執行;附近的鮑德山脈(Bald Range)野火後來燒毀該區。受訪專家呼籲將燃料減量擴大至「千公頃以上」規模,並指出審批程序與機構能量正拖慢速度。

  3. 在三角洲(Delta)River Road燒毀的田地發現一名女子遺體;警方將死亡列為可疑。 警方於週三清晨在River Road 6400街區發現火勢及一名女子遺體;調查人員正努力確認身分與死因。三角洲警局請凡於清晨經過River Road 6400街區或持行車記錄器影像者,撥打604-946-4444聯絡。

🏛️ 政府與政治

  1. 格蘭維爾(Granville)上的盧瓦特單房出租屋最終住戶已全數遷出,該處租戶關係正式結束。 省住房部表示最後一名住戶上週已遷出,遺留物品正在搬運;省政府於2020年以5,500萬加元買下霍華德約翰遜飯店(Howard Johnson)產權,並在7月向納稅人出帳101,000加元以維持建築開放。溫哥華市長肯·辛(Ken Sim)公開要求說明總花費與時程。

  2. 鄉港選區(Richmond–Bridgeport)省議員特蕾莎·沃特(Teresa Wat)退出卑詩保守黨,改以獨立身分坐陣,成為近期第四名脫黨者。 沃特在社群媒體表示,領導人凱瑞-琳·芬德雷(Kerry-Lynn Findlay)在領導競選期間的言論質疑她對加拿大的忠誠,且未向她道歉,因而決定改採獨立議員身分。

  3. 新增孵化場將每年向菲沙河與斯基納河釋放最多多達100萬尾鮭魚。 省方計畫提升孵化產能,目標每年額外釋放最多1,000,000尾幼年鮭魚進入上述兩大河系。
