100 MILE HOUSE, B.C. — The province’s wildfire crisis has led to the evacuation of the District of 100 Mile House.
As of 8:47 Sunday evening, Mayor Mitch Campsall has authorized the evacuation of the entire community.
Evacuees are asked to report to the emergency reception centre at the College of New Caledonia in Prince George, and travel via Highway 24 to Highway 5.
The order comes after the 5,000-hectare Gustafsen fire gave rise to an imminent threat to 100 Mile.
