Cariboo Region

WILLIAMS LAKE - Mark your calendar film fans, because the Banff Mountain Film Festival is coming to Williams Lake. It will take place on December 4th, starting at 7 pm in the Gibraltar Room in the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex.

QUESNEL — More bad news for the forest industry.

West Fraser has announced it will permanently curtail approximately 300 million board feet of combined lumber production at its Fraser Lake and Quesnel sawmills.

QUESNEL — Mounties in Quesnel have launched a homicide investigation.

North District RCMP Cpl. Madonna Saunderson says it stems from an incident that occurred last Thursday (Nov.8) when a man was taken to GR Baker Hospital with life-threatening injuries and later died.

QUESNEL - Seventeen kilometres south of Quesnel on West Fraser Road and motorists run up against a barricade. That's because five sections along three kilometres of that road were washed out this spring when Narcosli Creek flooded. It has stranded 250 people on the south side of the washout.
