## Resource

North Shore residents are pushing again for a provincial inquiry into the ballooning wastewater project, calling it gross mismanagement and demanding accountability after two previous requests were ignored. With costs soaring from $700 million to $3.86 billion—and North Shore taxpayers footing a huge share—the group insists only an independent provincial investigation will truly hold officials accountable. While Metro Vancouver has launched its own review, critics say it’s compromised because Metro chose and paid for the reviewer. The mayors’ recent plea to Premier Eby for better oversight echoes this frustration, as communities feel left holding the bag for runaway spending on projects they had no say in.
