Latest extreme cold warnings another hit for B.C. farmers facing brunt of climate change impacts


Environment Canada issued extreme weather warnings for most of British Columbia on Tuesday, saying the province's historic cold snap will likely continue until the end of the week. Now, the latest cold snap is adding even more uncertainty for farmers in the province, according to Stan Vander Waal, president of the B.C. Vander Waal said he's particularly concerned about those areas of B.C. Vaandrager says the year of natural disasters has had a huge impact on him and his Abbotsford dairy farm. While Vaandrager's cows are used to cold temperatures in January and February, the unseasonably low temperatures in late December are causing concern.
