Metchosin Fire Chief Cal Beaton's suspension will continue indefinitely. Beaton was suspended June 14. He had received a 24-hour driving suspension from RCMP during a road check early that morning, following a night that included drinks with friends. "The fire chief is under continued suspension and currently council is considering [its] options as given to us by our municipal solicitor," said Coun. Kyara Kahakauwila, who would not elaborate further. She added that deputy chief Steen Skou will continue as acting chief until the matter is resolved.
