Heavy rain has led to washouts and water overflows on the access roads to the Shoal Lake Cree Nation, east of Prince Albert, Sask., where residents have been living under a local state of emergency for three days.
Work has been underway to repair the road. As of Thursday night, the community remained essentially isolated but with a plan to face any urgent needs.
Earlier in the week, as a precaution, some chronically ill residents were moved to Prince Albert and other larger communities so their medical needs — such as dialysis — would not be affected.
