SURREY, B.C. — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau moved his campaign-style sweep to Surrey, B.C., on Friday, announcing federal government funding of up to $1.3 billion to extend Metro Vancouver's SkyTrain line from Surrey to neighbouring Langley.
Trudeau made the announcement in Surrey with the existing SkyTrain line in the background as protesters from different groups shouted in the plaza behind him and a convoy of trucks circled the block with horns blaring.
Public transit is key to Ottawa's plan for a clean recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, Trudeau told the news conference.
