Mission RCMP said they are working to confirm that everyone made it out safely.<\/p>\n

Residents of the retirement home were transported by bus to the Mission Leisure Centre, at 7th Avenue and Grand Street. Family members coming to meet loved ones should attend the Leisure Centre, not the retirement residence. Emergency Support Services are on scene there to help evacuees, according to the RCMP.<\/p>\n
