BC Highway Patrol looks for witnesses and dash video after Highway 17 collision

Share On

A weekend collision between a motorcycle and a SUV in Delta is being investigated by BC Highway Patrol, and police are looking for more witnesses and dash-camera video to determine exactly what happened.

On July 12, 2025, at about 11:15 a.m., a black Harley Davidson motorcycle collided with a dark green Toyota SUV on Highway #17 and Tsawwassen Drive in Delta. A second SUV, a grey Honda, was damaged by debris from the initial collision.

“The minutes leading up to the collision, and the moments before the collision, are crucially important to the investigation,” says Corporal Michael McLaughlin with BC Highway Patrol. “If you were in the area and saw these vehicles, or have dash camera footage, you could really help police by sharing what you saw.”

The motorcyclist, a 37-year-old man from Port Alberni, is expected to survive but may have life-altering injuries. Nobody else was hurt in the collision, and all drivers involved in the crash stayed on scene and have been cooperative with police.

To contact BC Highway Patrol about dash camera video or to share what you saw, call 604-526-9744 and quote file 2025-1217.

Alberta education minister concerned about private school funding petition

Alberta's education minister says cutting government funding to private schools would only escalate the pressure faced by the province's strained public school system.

The funding cut is a move one Calgary teacher is hoping to put to a vote. This week Alberta's chief electoral officer approved the teacher's proposed referendum question, which asks: ``Should the Government of Alberta end its current practice of allocating

Canada Post union set for meeting with Ottawa as strike stretches on
