Police in Surrey are investigating a collision at an intersection, involving two vehicles, that has claimed the life of a passenger.

Surrey Police Service says officers responded to the scene at the intersection of Highway 15 and Highway 10 before noon on Dec. 25 when they found a passenger in the vehicle passed away despite life-saving efforts.

Police say the victim was an adult woman and the driver of the vehicle that hit another car remained at the scene and is cooperating with police.

The investigation is still in its early stages and it remains unclear about the cause of the collision.

Police said in an update Wednesday afternoon that the intersection of Highway 15 and 10 has reopened after being shut down throughout the day.

Emissions in Canada fell last year, though still far off Paris targets

For the first time since the pandemic, Canada had a year-over-year decline in its greenhouse gas emissions — though it is still a long way off its 2030 target. A preliminary emissions report Thursday from the federal government shows greenhouse gases emitted in 2023 fell by six million tonnes compared to 2022, the equivalent to what about 1.4 million passenger vehicles emit over the course of a year.
