British Columbia: Petrol rations after Canada storm

A Canadian province is rationing petrol over fuel shortage fears after a major storm cut off road and rail links.

Canadian Armed Forces personnel have begun arriving in British Columbia to help with recovery efforts in the flood-stricken region.

On Friday the province issued travel restrictions and rations on petrol, just a few days after declaring a state of emergency.

At least one person has been confirmed dead, but more deaths are expected.
