Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will be in Williams Lake today with several senior cabinet ministers. He and Premier John Horgan will meet with local first responders and participate in an aerial tour of fire zones in the region.

First responders have been working hard to get people in BC home safely. I’ll be in Williams Lake today to thank them & meet with officials.
