Rains damage BC crops and disrupt transport network
Heavy rains battered British Columbia's Fraser Valley, washing out roads and rail lines and hitting over 400 hectares of Sumas Prairie cropland east of Abbotsford. Horticulturist Mark Elweeney warned many harvests and newly planted crops face losses if rain persists, while hay stands overripe in late May have reduced yields.

Transit system draws big crowds in Vancouver
The Rapid Transit Demonstration Section in Vancouver attracted just over 40 000 riders in its first eight days. Peak days were June 27 and July 1 with 8 000 and 7 000 riders. Grace McCarthy praised the response and urged faster completion of the full system. The exhibition will stay open free of charge Wednesdays to Sundays noon to 7 pm and on public holidays. The Spirit of B C train highlights a future rapid transit era as the project nears contract in most areas, creating about 5 500 man years of employment.
