RCMP say two youths have been arrested after a male was injured in an assault with a weapon outside a high school in Surrey, B.C.

Mounties say investigators have identified three suspects in the assault, which happened Monday morning outside of Panorama Ridge Secondary School.

The injured youth was taken to hospital in stable condition and the school was placed on a "hold and secure" until the safety of all students was confirmed, police say.

All of the suspects are youth and were not previously known to police, RCMP say, and while two have been arrested and are in custody, officers are still looking for the third.

Investigators believe the assault is related to an ongoing dispute among people known to each other and the incident is not related to gang activity.

Police say there is no indication of a further safety risk at the school but there will be an increased police presence as the investigation continues.

Carney says new oil pipeline would require emissions plan, Indigenous consultation

Prime Minister Mark Carney says any future oil pipeline connecting Alberta to the British Columbia coast would depend on conditions including a major emissions-reduction project, economic benefits for B.C., and constitutionally required consultation with First Nations. Speaking to the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade, Carney said the pipeline proposal discussed last week between the federal and Alberta governments would only move forward alongside the proposed Pathways Alliance carbon capture project. He said Indigenous consultation under Section 35 of the Constitution is “non-negotiable.”
