Police have arrested a 28-year-old man following a string of late-night shootings in Surrey and Delta that left several vehicles and a residence damaged. No injuries were reported.

Surrey RCMP say shots were fired at three locations Saturday night – the 6900-block of 127A Street, the 12900-block of 73A Avenue, and the 6600-block of 132 Street. Less than an hour later, Delta Police responded to a similar report near the 7900-block of 114A Street, which investigators believe is connected.

Corporal Vanessa Munn, Surrey RCMP spokesperson, said the incidents appear linked. “All four incidents are believed to be connected to one suspect who is now in custody. While shots were fired at vehicles and a home, thankfully nobody was injured,” she said.

Investigators say the shootings are not believed to be connected to the Lower Mainland gang conflict. Surrey city councillors have previously debated community safety funding and will revisit the issue in upcoming budget discussions as residents demand reassurance after repeated violent incidents.

The shootings also rattled people living nearby. Rahul Mehta, who has lived in the Newton area for a decade, said the violence disrupts everyday life. “I was getting ready for work when the sirens came through. It’s frustrating because these incidents give the neighbourhood a bad reputation, even though most of us just want to live quietly. People are tired of seeing crime define our community.”

The leaders of British Columbia’s three major political parties, Lorne Doerkson, David Eby and Emily Lowan, faced off in a live debate on Wednesday night ahead of the October 24 provincial election.

Eby acknowledged that his government had not been perfect on every issue but defended his decision to call a snap election. He said his government’s one-seat majority had led the opposition to make 13 attem

Stelco Faces Pressure Over 500 Job Cuts as Canada Issues Stern Warning

Canada’s Industry Minister Mélanie Joly has warned U.S. steelmaker Cleveland-Cliffs of severe consequences if it proceeds with plans to lay off hundreds of workers at its Stelco operations in Ontario. The dispute began after Stelco announced plans to cut approximately 500 jobs at its Hamilton and Nanticoke facilities. The company says the ongoing trade war with the United States has made it increasingly difficult to compete in the galvanized steel market. However, Joly said the federal government could pursue legal action under Section 40 of the Investment Canada Act if Cleveland-Cliffs fai

Trump Says Canada Has No Choice but to Become 51st U.S. State

U.S. President Donald Trump has once again made provocative remarks about Canada amid the ongoing trade war between the two countries, claiming that Canada will eventually have no choice but to become the 51st U.S. state. Speaking at a campaign rally in Bullhead City, Arizona, on Wednesday evening, Trump accused Canada of repeatedly harming American interests. Raising the issue of dairy products, he alleged that Canada had imposed heavy tariffs on U.S. milk imports, claiming that America had been unfairly treated. Trump said the situation had changed under his leadership, arguing that the Unit
