The City of Surrey has begun work on a new outdoor sport and cultural venue in North Surrey, which will be able to host the sport of Kabaddi as well as community events and concerts.

"I am pleased that we have begun work on the new North Surrey Outdoor Sport Complex," said Surrey Mayor Doug McCallum. "With its natural grass field, this will be an ideal venue to support the growing sport of Kabaddi in Surrey. It will have the largest seating capacity of all other Kabaddi amenities in the City. Located near SkyTrain and rapid transit, the Complex will also serve as an additional outdoor venue to host a variety of community events helping to make Surrey the vibrant place it is."

The North Surrey Outdoor Sport Complex will be located adjacent to Scott Road SkyTrain Station and North Surrey Sport and Ice Complex at 12626 110 Avenue. The complex will include a circular natural grass sports field, a 2500-seat grandstand and a fieldhouse which will include public washrooms and changerooms. The complex’s proximity to rapid transit and SkyTrain makes it an ideal location for hosting large tournaments and events.

In addition to having the capacity to host a variety of sport and cultural activities, the North Surrey Outdoor Sport Complex will have larger seating capacity than any other Kabaddi amenity in the City.

Canada Moves to Extend Gas and Diesel Tax Relief Until January 2027

Under the proposed legislation, Canadians will continue to receive the full tax relief of 10 cents per litre on gasoline and 4 cents per litre on diesel until the end of January. According to Champagne, the measure will save drivers about $5 on every 50-litre tank of fuel. From February 1 to March 31, 2027, the tax relief will be reduced by half, with the federal fuel excise tax returning to its full rate on April
