By Brendan Pawliw

Prince George is on the cusp of having 10,000 evacuees.

Over 9,900 signed up at CNC as of Sunday evening.

Residents of 100 Mile House, 108 Mile and Lac La Hache left on Saturday.

Buses will be leaving CNC and the Northern Sport Centre at 1 pm today taking evacuees to the South Cariboo Recreation Centre.

The return trip requires travellers to head east on Highway 16 before turning south on Highway 5 and will take about seven hours.

An update on the Cariboo wildfires will headline a town hall meeting at UNBC’s Canfor Theatre at 5 pm.

The meeting will be live streamed here
