VANCOUVER — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and British Columbia Premier John Horgan met over lunch in Vancouver on Friday, before Trudeau was set to travel back to Ottawa following a three-day cabinet retreat marked by the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
A readout from the Office of the Prime Minister says the pair acknowledged with sadness Her Majesty's passing at the age of 96 on Thursday, noting the"tremendous influence" she had throughout Canada during her 70-year reign.
The readout says Trudeau and Horgan discussed opportunities for B.C. and Canada to become"reliable sources of energy and natural resources in a net-zero world," meaning the economy either produces no greenhouse gas emissions, or its emissions are offset.
