Prime Minister Mark Carney's B.C. visit expected to continue Monday in Nanaimo area
Carney is slated to visit the Canadian Forces Maritime Experimental and Test Ranges facility near Nanoose Bay, located about 30 kilometres north of Nanaimo.
The prime minister met with B.C. Premier David Eby on Sunday, as well as officials from the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority.
Carney and Eby also discussed U.S. tariffs and a renewed animosity in the long-running softwood lumber dispute, but that was closed to media.
After the meetings, Carney made a surprise appearance at Vancouver's Pride Parade, marching for about a kilometre along the route beginning outside B.C. Place Stadium.
