Canadian company Wilderness Vans completed a six-year project to transform a 2006 Ford E-350 van into a self-sufficient off-road camper. The conversion added a full-time 4WD system, Fox suspension, solar panels, and a functional interior with a kitchen and sleeping area. The project shows the extensive modernization potential of older commercial vehicles.

Campbellton, New Brunswick, will increase the number of seasonal lots at its waterfront RV park from 30–32 to a maximum of 37 next year after some campers were turned away this summer. The campground has 86 sites reserved for RVs or trailers only. Originally 18 lots were set aside for seasonal users, rising to 30–32 before the 2025 season. Council member Diane Cyr said the increase follows growing local interest, but the cap ensures sites remain for visitors and tourists.

Arpin is wrapping up filming for the new season of Van Aventure at the Festival Western de Saint-Tite.
