Claim made during Langley City appearance
NDP leader David Eby was back in Langley City for the closing week of the provincial election on Saturday, warning in-private remarks by Conservative rival John Rustad suggest he would stop construction of SkyTrain to Langley.
— Langley Advance Times October 12, 2024 Eby said at a closed door meeting with the Vancouver Regional Construction Association in August, an attendee asked John Rustad what he would do about the “irresponsible amount of work” happening on major infrastructure projects. Eby warned that would mean cancelling or delaying projects like the Surrey-Langley Skytrain extension, or the Highway 1 expansion.
