If you were one of many stuck on the Malahat with that fuel truck spill, did you hear about the opportunity to get reimbursed for “legitimate expenses” during the wait?

The Malahat was closed down for almost 24 hours from Saturday to Sunday, putting a LOT of people out. Sooo, Columbia Fuels have hired a third party to look at each situation and assess how much money you should receive for the inconvenience you were caused.

I'm not entirely sure how this will work and how they'll decide how much money you should get back versus me...but it's a step in the right direction at least. Imagine how much money a mechanic would get reimbursed if they were caught in the hold-up for the whole 22 hours?!?! Or a LAWYER! Wowzer.

Their hotline number is 250-391-3611 or email malahat@columbiafuels.com
