RICHMOND – Canada’s Transportation Safety Board has deployed a team to investigate what it calls a plane accident in British Columbia’s Fraser Valley.
A statement from the federal agency says the incident happened Wednesday near Mission, B.C., about 70 kilometres southeast of Vancouver.
The agency says it involved a small aircraft, but released few other details.
It marks the third deployment to B.C. for TSB investigators this month due to aviation incidents.
Last week, a plane made an emergency landing on a highway in Prince George, B.C., striking several vehicles and killing one person.
A mid-air collision between two planes over Chilliwack, B.C., that resulted in a fatality also prompted a deployment to the Fraser Valley city earlier this month.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Aug. 27, 2026.
