Helicopter take-off approval delays hampering search and rescue efforts in B.C.
Description
August 25, 2024
When anyone finds themselves in trouble in the outdoors, they depend on the province's search and rescue teams. And those teams often rely on the help of helicopters to lift injured hikers to safety. But those organizations say they're being left in the lurch in the backcountry, with major delays in approving the lift-off of potentially life-saving choppers. Emily Lazatin reports.
