Metro Vancouver Crime Stoppers has released its list of BC's five most wanted criminals.

Topping the tally is Rabih Alkhalil, the man being tried for a brazen, suspected targeted murder in Vancouver, who broke out of jail in July with the help of two accomplices, just weeks before his first-degree trial was supposed to end.

The 35 year old, who uses the first name of Robbie, also tops the national list of most-wanted criminals, and is the subject of a $250,000 reward for information leading to his arrest.

The other four men on the Crime Stoppers list are wanted for various offences ranging from second-degree murder, assault and weapons offences to being illegally at large.

Rustad Backs Alberta Pipeline Project, Criticizes B.C. Government's Opposition

Former B.C. Conservative leader John Rustad has thrown his support behind Alberta's proposed pipeline project, which is expected to submit its application by July 1.

B.C. Premier David Eby cuts China trade trip short amid pipeline debate

British Columbia Premier David Eby has shortened his trade mission to China from a week-long visit to just three days. The trip was originally scheduled to run from June 27 to July 3. The decision comes as Alberta is expected to formally apply for federal approval of a new oil pipeline on July 1. Eby has consistently opposed the proposed pipeline project. However, speaking to reporters on Thursday, Eby said the shortened trip has nothing to do with the pipeline issue. He explained that B.C. has a pending memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the federal government, and Ottawa has asked him to
