A flood emergency has been declared in Canada

A state of emergency was ordered local time Wednesday in Canada’s British Columbia province, where flooding caused chaos, and the federal government mobilized the military.

The regional premier, John Horgan, ordered an extraordinary legal injunction after at least one man died in the area on Sunday and heavy rain fell on Monday. It caused floods and landslides. According to the police, four people have disappeared.

“Unfortunately, we have to expect that there will be news of more deaths in the coming days,” Horgan said. The county’s heatwave killing took its toll in the summer, and Horgan warned that similar extreme natural phenomena would become more common due to man-made climate change.

With measures that can be taken through an emergency, the local administration wants to make roads that have been closed for days available again, because transportation is also closed due to closed or closed roads. Because of the time of sentencing, the rail connection to the Port of Vancouver was cut off as well. The state of emergency lasts for 14 days, but it can be extended.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promised that the federal government would support British Columbia in its rescue, demolition and reconstruction operations, and announced that hundreds of members of the armed forces were already on their way to help local authorities.
