Some residents of a Surrey RV park say their landlord left them to fend for themselves when a power outage had them living in the dark for days right before Christmas. The park's landlord gave residents no indication of when the power would be restored, she said. A tenants' advocate says situations like this aren't unusual in RV parks and illustrate the importance of tenants knowing their rights. The lights came back on after CBC News visited Hazelmere RV Park on Tuesday. "We engaged BC Hydro and also had an electrical crew engaged to restore power as quickly as possible but like others we were at the mercy of BC Hydro," he said.
