Winery visit for PM

UPDATE: 5:30 a.m.

Castanet has learned Justin Trudeau is staying at a private residence on a local winery property in the Central Okanagan.

To safeguard the prime minister's privacy during the personal visit, we won't say which one, but several tips came in Thursday that the PM was spotted around Kelowna, arriving at the airport and making a brief stop at UBC Okanagan.

The PM apparently was also set to dine at another local winery.

According to the Prime Minister’s Office, Trudeau arrived in B.C. Thursday for a personal visit leading into the B.C. Day long weekend.

He won't be the only tourist here during the holiday. Temperatures are expected to be in the thirties, and tourism businesses, lakes and beaches should be busy.

According to Trudeau's Twitter page, he is planning to be in Vancouver for the Pride Festival on July 31.
