Kamloops, B.C., is getting two shiny, free-standing public washrooms that are made of steel and powered by solar energy. They will be the only public toilets in town available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. "This is free-standing, really, the top of the line as far as what we want because they need to be indestructible," Coun. Portland Loos aren't new to the province; Smithers, Victoria and Nelson all boast the free-standing restrooms. But having a public washroom available around the clock for most of the year has been a positive experience.
