VANCOUVER — Prime Minister Mark Carney surprised attendees at Vancouver’s Pride parade Sunday after meeting with Premier David Eby and officials from the Vancouver port.
Carney met with Vancouver Fraser Port Authority president and CEO Peter Xotta and DP World Canada chief operating officer Joel Werner in the morning, briefly appearing at a photo op with the two executives after pacing the port facility as a large container ship loomed above.
The prime minister was then scheduled for a meeting with B.C. Premier David Eby that was closed to media as the province grapples with U.S. tariffs and renewed animosity in the long running softwood lumber dispute.
Carney later surprised attendees at the Vancouver Pride parade, marching for about a kilometre along the route beginning outside B.C. P
