A police officer and a driver were both hurt last night when a vehicle slammed into a police cruiser blocking a lane of Highway 99 though Surrey.

The lane had been closed as officers investigated an earlier shooting in the same area.

RCMP say both the officer and the driver of the vehicle that hit the cruiser have non-life-threatening injuries.

A charge of impaired driving has been laid and Mounties are appealing for information or dashcam video as they continue the investigation.

Surrey RCMP on Twitter:

A suspected impaired driver crashed into a roadblock last night on Highway 99. One of our officer's and the driver of the civilian vehicle received non-life threatening injuries. The civilian driver was arrested for impaired operation of a motor vehicle. http://ow.ly/7E9F50E0t1d

Carney says it's 'foundational' to have diplomatic ties with India

Prime Minister Mark Carney says that reinstating key diplomats between Canada and India is a "foundational" step in restoring the relationship between the two countries. But Carney still refuses to say whether he raised the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar in a meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier this week. He also would not say what India has done since Canada expelled six top Indian diplomats in October over allegations Indian agents or their proxies were engaging in violent crimes directed at Canadians including murder, extortion and coercion.

Two major wildfires in northeast B.C. are downgraded, leaving just one fire of note

Two of the three most significant wildfires in British Columbia have been downgraded and are no longer considered fires of note. They include the 263-square-kilometre Kiskatinaw River wildfire in northeastern B.C., which was deemed on Wednesday to be no longer out of control. The Pocket Knife Creek wildfire northwest of Fort. St. John, the biggest blaze in B.C. at more than 1,500 square kilometres, has also lost wildfire-of-note status, having earlier been removed from the out-of-control stage. Both fires are now considered to be held, meaning they aren't expected to grow beyond current perime

New tariffs will be imposed in the coming weeks to protect the industry from unfair trading practices and overcapacity, Carney says. The heads of the Canadian Steel Producers Association and the United Steelworkers are visiting Parliament Hill today and calling for urgent
