Share On

Surrey RCMP General Investigation Unit is investigating after a shooting in Newton, Tuesday night.

At approximately 10:30 p.m., Surrey RCMP responded to a report of gunshots that were heard in the 8800-block of 140B Street.

Frontline officers attended and located evidence of a shooting outside of a residence in that area.

Further investigation, including a review of video, shows that shots were fired from a dark coloured vehicle at an individual who fled in a second vehicle prior to police arrival.

There is no evidence that anyone was injured in the shooting.

Police have identified the person who was targeted in this incident and are looking to speak with them. Investigators are working with limited cooperation from witnesses at the residence where this shooting took place.

Investigators believe that this was not a random incident.

The person who was targeted in this shooting is known to police.

Further work will be done to determine if this shooting is connected to other violent incidents, or is connected to gang activity in the Lower Mainland Region.

Costs of Manitoba’s extreme wildfire season start to take shape, evacuations ongoing

The Manitoba government has signed a 30-million-dollar contract with the Canadian Red Cross for evacuee support and other services related to this year's wildfires. The recently disclosed contract is the first glimpse into the cost of this year's wildfire season, which provincial officials say is the most severe in at least 30 years.

The Red Cross contract alone is worth more than half of the 50-million dollars the N-D-P gover

Canada Post heads back into bargaining with union after delay

Canada Post and the union representing postal workers are set to return to the bargaining table today. Plans to rekindle talks late last week were delayed due to a lack of federal government mediators. The Canadian Union of Postal Workers claimed labour unrest at Air Canada was pulling attention from the postal service's dispute, which has stretched on for more than a year and a half. A few weeks ago, unionized postal workers rejected the Crown corporation's latest offer that would have included wage hikes of around 13 per cent over four years and added part-timers to the workforce.

It comes two months after the government said most Albertans, including health workers, would have to pay for COVID-19 shots this fall. Public health experts and health-care unions called it irresponsible to force front-line workers to pay for protection in the workplace. Premier Danielle Smith has said the aim of the new policy is to prevent wastage, after some $135 million was spent on unused doses. The government hasn't finalized how much other Alb
