Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his ministers gathered in Hamilton this week to plan a path forward for the new parliamentary sitting that begins next week — and they've been pursued by protesters at nearly every turn. A small but vocal group of roughly 20 protesters has set up outside Trudeau's hotel and the site of the retreat. The protesters have used techniques similar to those deployed by the protest convoy that converged on Ottawa a year ago. The Hamilton crowd has shouted at the prime m
They say you have to crack a few eggs to make an omelette, but for Corrie and Jason Adamson, owners of Simpson Orchards in Leamington, Ont., a huge egg laid by one of their chickens was more than enough. The egg was almost the size of an orange — Jason said it was bigger than any egg he'd ever seen. The Adamsons said their store was slow from the snow storm on Wednesday and with their family and a few customers around, they decided to live stream themselves cracking the egg they found two weeks
Teachers and parents in Fredericton spoke out in opposition to the New Brunswick government's proposed plan to change how it teaches French immersion in schools starting this fall. Attendees questioned government evidence on shortcomings of the current system, and demanded to know what data the province used to create the new program.
Martine Corbeil has lived in her Montreal home since 1997 and has always parked her car in the driveway out front. But last August, she got a letter from the borough of Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve. "It said that we were not allowed to park in front of our house according to this bylaw," she said. That will certainly complicate things for her — and not just because she has to carry her groceries from a curbside spot. She has an electric car and there's a charging station attached to her house s
LONGYEARBYEN, Norway (AP) — The warm glow of Svalbard Kirke’s lights gleams on the mountain slope from where the church stands over this remote Norwegian Arctic village, cloaked in the polar night’s constant darkness. A century after it was founded to minister to the coal miners who settled Longyearbyen, the Lutheran house of faith is open 24/7, serving as a beacon for the community navigating a drastic change in its identity. The last Norwegian coal mine in Svalbard – an archipelago that’s one
While stormy conditions have dissipated for most of New Brunswick as of Thursday evening, dropping temperatures mean the risk of water on the roads and sidewalks freezing. Throughout the day, crews rushed to clear drains before the temperatures fell below zero on Thursday night. Brent Grant, the assistant manager of roadway operations for the City of Fredericton, said his team does daily maintenance to keep road drains clear, but when snow is immediately followed by heavy rain it presents a chal
The Higgs government faced another angry, skeptical crowd Tuesday night as public consultations on its plan to replace French immersion in New Brunswick schools took place in Saint John. More than 300 people turned out, and all 27 who spoke at the meeting denounced the proposal to implement a new program in time for this fall. "It should go without saying that reducing French immersion by 50 per cent is not going to improve French," said parent Micah Peterson, who has five children in immersion
OTTAWA — Key players and close watchers of Rogers Communications Inc.'s proposed takeover of Shaw Communications Inc. shared their views on the $26-billion deal at a House of Commons committee Wednesday as Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne deliberates on its fate. Critics of the deal, including academics and competitors, used the industry and technology meeting to argue that Champagne should either block the deal entirely or impose stricter conditions on it, while also raising concer
Alberta's premier has asked to meet the prime minister in advance of anticipated federal legislation guiding a transition away from high-pollution jobs. In a letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made public on Thursday, Premier Danielle Smith asked for a February meeting to reach a joint agreement on proposed pieces of federal "just transition" legislation. The Liberal government says the bill will lay out a path to help well-paid workers in emissions-intensive industries like oil and gas mov
The Alberta government will not approve auto insurance rate increases for the remainder of 2023. Finance Minster Travis Toews and Affordability and Utilities Minister Matt Jones said in a news release Thursday the province will also look at short- and longer-term measures to get insurance rates in check. Some rate increases will still go ahead if they were previously approved or if a driver incurs an at-fault claim or a ticket. Drivers can also see increases if they move to another address or in
Some parents in western P.E.I. say they aren't too happy with the decision to let schools open Thursday, saying classes should have been cancelled due to poor road conditions. Wind warnings were in effect for all of the Island starting Wednesday afternoon, with Thursday morning featuring periods of snow changing to rain as well as gusts reaching 90 km/h. In the West Prince area, many parents said school should have been cancelled for the safety of students and staff alike. "I just felt that ther
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he has invited the premiers to a meeting in Ottawa to discuss a new health-care funding deal. NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says he wants any deal to protect the public health-care system and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says he wants to prioritize shorter wait times.
Doctors and nurses say a provincewide network outage caused chaos in many hospitals and they hope a third party review, promised by Alberta Health Services, will result in a reliable backup plan. According to AHS, the outage was triggered during routine maintenance early Monday. "The cause of the outage was identified as a routine maintenance change that was made to the system early in the morning. We are working with the vendor to understand why this occurred," spokesperson Kerry Williamson sai
MOMBASA, Kenya (AP) — The Tanzanian government is seizing livestock from Indigenous Maasai herders in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area in its latest attempt to clear way for tourism and trophy hunting, a report released Thursday said. The update from the Oakland Institute, a U.S.-based environmental think tank, found that the government forcefully confiscated some 5,880 cattle and 767 goats and sheep from the Maasai in November and December last year and is demanding that owners pay heavy fines.
LUNENBURG, N.S. — Another community in Nova Scotia has removed the name Cornwallis from municipal property — and the town of Lunenburg is now looking for new names from the public. Lunenburg council announced Tuesday that a street and two parks will be renamed following a recommendation from the town's anti-racism committee. The committee said changes are needed because the parks and street were originally named after former Nova Scotia governor Edward Cornwallis, who issued a "scalping proclama

Jason Rutledge is not one to shy away from conversation. But that's a quality you would expect from a man wearing a green hat shaped like a squid. And that's why the grocery store cashier with the huge grin and infectious laugh can often be found behind the register of the new "slow social lane" at an Edmonton Sobeys — a check-out lane where customers can take as long as they want. "I look at the time that I have with these people … our conversations, especially, are very sacred to me," Rutledge
BANGKOK (AP) — The production of opium in Myanmar has flourished since the military's seizure of power, with the cultivation of poppies up by a third in the past year as eradication efforts have dropped off and the faltering economy has led more people toward the drug trade, according to a United Nations report released Thursday. In 2022, in the first full growing season since the military wrested control of the country from the democratically elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi in 2021, Myan
MONTEREY PARK, Calif. (AP) — For decades, Monterey Park has been a haven for Asian immigrants seeking to maintain a strong cultural identity — and a culinary heaven worth visiting for anybody near Los Angeles craving authentic Asian cuisine. Signs across the vibrant suburb are written in English and Chinese. Families raise bilingual children. And residents in their golden years enjoy karaoke, the Chinese tile game mah jong and — as the outside world learned last week after a horrific mass shooti
BRATISLAVA, Slovakia (AP) — Slovakia’s parliament amended the country's constitution Wednesday to make it possible to hold early elections. Ninety-two lawmakers voted in favor of an amendment that allows a snap vote if it is approved by a three-fifths majority in the 150-seat National Council of the Slovak Republic. The Constitution of Slovakia previously did not allow for an early election. After the coalition government led by Prime Minister Eduard Heger lost a no-confidence vote in parliament
