BC landslide: 2.5M dump truckloads of debris went into river when Chilcotin blockage broke
Officials are warning B.C. boaters around the Fraser River to stay off the water as debris from the Chilcotin landslide passes through. Nearly a week after the massive slide, debris is washing up in parts of Surrey, Langley, New Westminster and Maple Ridge, with more expected on the way. While the flooding risk for downstream properties has lessened, the province says some of the debris is so large that boaters and residents should use extreme caution. Global's Paul Johnson has more on the size and scope of the dangers that lie within the river.
