‘It’s like driving through a war zone,’ fire evacuees return home in the North Shuswap.
Description
September 7, 2023
Residents in the North Shuswap are facing a long road to recovery following the destructive Bush Creek East wildfire. More than 270 structures across the region were either entirely lost or partially scorched. One of the hardest hit communities was Celista, where, as Klaudia Van Emmerik reports, many residents no longer have a place to call home.
