Yup, that's the one I had in mind. Obviously there's no pressure now with it being ecologically sensitive and flood-prone and all the suburbistan on either side, but in 2060 when Fleetwood looks like Metrotown and there's still a big gap between Surrey and Langley...

Southlands is a Musqueam reserve. The golf courses that aren't? Fairly out of the way of any bike or transit routes, and South Dunbar hates pedestrians, so you'd have thousands of new drivers clogging up SW Marine. Riverway is much the same.
South and east of Langley, Richmond or Coquitlam? Forget it.
