Unveiled court documents reveal secret discussions and political drama in Surrey’s police transition dispute with the BC NDP government
Secretly snapped photos, hand-scribbled notes and gossipy observations — the court case between the City of Surrey and the BC NDP government over policing is going to have it all when it starts Monday, if the initial court documents are any indication.
The court document includes a detailed accounting of a call between the mayor and the premier on April 28, 2023, just hours after Solicitor General Mike Farnworth announced the province recommended Surrey continue transitioning to SPS. “Eby said maybe it should be just you and me because it’s obvious you don’t trust him,” wrote Wawryk.
Locke also pushed back against suggestions that as a BC Liberal MLA from 2001 to 2005 she was taking her position based on partisanship against the NDP government. The affidavit also outlines what would likely have been a tense face-to-face between Locke and Farnworth on July 25, 2023, in which both sides dispute whether either had a plan.
