Over the bridge, there is a small shoulder between the sidewalk and the lane which, while not to the standards of a bike lane, is at least nicer to ride in than a car lane with traffic going 80+kph. West of the bridge, there is a comfortably-sized shoulder. I normal switch to the Walter Bean Trailer at Shirley Dr.
I haven't been out there in a while, but unless the street view data is out of date there is only a curb on the north side, with the south side having a wide shoulder from the bridge until Woolwich St. I am onl proposing creating a MUT on the south side where there is already a wide shoulder.
