Vancouver rundown for Monday, December 15, 2025.
More flooding is still possible. In Fraser Valley,
residents are being told to prepare. The impact
of a weather system that hit Sunday night is
now triggering new concerns about creeks, rivers,
and low -lying areas. Flood warnings remain in
place for the Chilliwack and Sumas Rivers. and
up to 70 millimeters of rain could fall in some
areas by the end of Monday. That has police and
local governments concerned as areas from Abbotsford
east beyond Manning Park continue to recover
from last week's atmospheric river. The Ministry
of Emergency Management says drivers and residents
need to brace for the next round of stormy weather.
Other news, 1BC, BC's newest breakaway political
party, is on the verge of collapse, with its
founder being ousted as leader. The party's executive
says it has removed Vancouver Calchanna MLA Dallas
Brody from her leadership role. Kelowna Lake
Country Coldstream MLA Tara Armstrong, 1BC's
only other elected MLA, says she has lost confidence
in Brody. This comes only days after Brody fired
three party staff members. Since then, there
has been a battle over the party's website, membership
lists, and assets. Two staff members were inside
a Surrey restaurant when it was hit by gunfire
early Sunday morning. Surrey police say the latest
shooting, this time at 120th Street and 80th
Avenue, appears to be linked to extortion. Neither
staff member was hit. No arrests have been made.
A man has died in what Abbotsford police call
a targeted stabbing. It happened at a home near
McCrimmon Drive and Maple Street late Sunday
morning. A man was arrested at the scene. Rain
for most of Monday except some clearing in the
afternoon. Very windy at times. Heavy rain on
Tuesday. Showers for Wednesday. For all the details
