Episode Details

For nearly 90 years, Kamloops’ iconic Red Bridge connected downtown with the Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc community — a lifeline for work, health care, and local business. After arson destroyed it in 2024, the site remains fenced off with no clear rebuild timeline from the provincial government. Businesses like a 50-year-old bakery have suffered, losing customers and revenue. Residents now endure longer, riskier routes to essentials. With no arrests in the fire investigation, the community demands a modern two-lane bridge with pedestrian and bike paths — one that restores not just travel, but connection and economic stability.
