Dozens of families in Saguenay’s La Baie neighbourhood were forced out of their homes late Saturday.

The city of Saguenay and the Saguenay Fire Department ordered the emergency evacuation of 53 homes. The latest order comes just days after 24 other residences were evacuated following a landslide that swept away a house on Monday.

Authorities worry another landslide might take place in the area. They asked residents to leave their homes by Sunday morning.

Several families left the area taking as many things as possible with them. Some went to stay with relatives, while the city redirected those who had no place to go to a shelter
