More than a week after Merritt, British Columbia was evacuated due to flooding, some residents are now being allowed to return home.
About 7,000 people were forced to flee after the massive flooding caused the local waste water system to completely fail. But 2,000 were allowed back Tuesday as part of the first phase of the city's three-part return plan.
But as Darrian Matassa-Fung reports, Mayor Linda Brown is warning Merritt is now a different city.
