Two people are dead after a major vehicle crash in Metro Vancouver early this morning. Mounties say the crash happened at the intersection of Boundary Road and Forest Street, on the Burnaby side of the city's border with Vancouver.

Police say a vehicle was travelling west on Forest Street when it was hit by a northbound vehicle on Boundary Road. Emergency responders at the scene attempted life-saving measures on the two occupants in the westbound vehicle, but police say both people died.

Police say the driver of the northbound vehicle was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

RCMP say its Criminal Collision Investigation Team has taken the lead on the case, and the cause has yet to be determined.

Migrant advocates urge federal government to withdraw proposed border security law

Migrant rights organizations are urging the federal government to abandon Bill C-12, legislation they warn could severely limit access to Canada’s refugee system. The proposed border security bill is currently before House of Commons committees, with clause-by-clause review scheduled at the national security committee this week. The bill features several significant changes to immigration and asylum procedures, including a provision that would prevent people who have lived in Canada for more than a year from submitting a refugee claim to the Immigration and Refugee Board.

Search continues for grizzly after Bella Coola school group attacked, Nuxalk Nation raises support funds

British Columbia conservation officers say they are continuing to search the Bella Coola Valley for the grizzly bear involved in a sudden attack on an elementary school group last week. Three students and a teacher were hospitalized on Thursday after the bear charged a group of about 20 people who had stopped for lunch during a field trip. Officials now believe the incident likely involved a mother grizzly with two cubs, a situation that can increase defensive behaviour. Conservation officers have placed traps in the area and are urging residents and visitors to avoid nearby forested trails wh

Snowfall warning in southeastern B.C. as weekend storm drenches south coast

Environment Canada is cautioning travellers in southeastern British Columbia as a winter storm brings up to 20 centimetres of snow to the Elk Valley region near the Alberta border.
