ESQUIMALT, B.C. — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau started his visit to British Columbia today with a morning run alongside members of the military on a naval base in Victoria.

Trudeau and about 300 members of CFB Esquimalt ran five kilometres on a winding and hilly course through the base, which is home to Canada's Pacific naval fleet.

Trudeau's itinerary has him touring the base before a meeting with Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps.

He is scheduled to meet B.C. Premier Christy Clark later in Vancouver.

We’ve landed in Victoria to start a busy two days in BC – working to grow the economy & strengthen the middle class for people in BC.
