Ex-minister Guthrie on 'probation,' barred from UCP caucus meetings after quitting cabinet

Former Alberta infrastructure minister Peter Guthrie is barred from attending UCP caucus meetings following his recent abrupt resignation, as part of a 30-day probation period he's been placed under.

Guthrie, who quit Premier Danielle Smith's cabinet in the wake of allegations about Alberta Health Services contracting, is still allowed to sit with United Conservative MLAs on the government side of the legislature chamber during this unusual probation. Guthrie, the MLA for Airdrie-Cochrane, declined an interview request, but he confirmed to CBC News that he's been barred since Feb. 26 from attending regular caucus meetings or government committees.

Region of Waterloo to meet with outdoor workers union Friday on day 5 of strike

After five days of stalled negotiations, the Region of Waterloo and the union representing outside regional workers are set to resume talks on Friday. Picket lines have been set up all week in front of Region of Waterloo International Airport. Tuesday another picket line was set up outside regional headquarters on Frederick Street in Kitchener while committee meetings were taking place.

The workers are represented by Local 1656 of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE). Those striking are outside workers, including working in departments like landfill, roads and water, and the airport. The strike started at 12:01 a.m. Monday. The union says it's calling for higher wages to keep up with the rising cost of living.

Mark Carney steps into an unprecedented moment

Mark Carney, former governor of the Bank of Canada and Bank of England, has become the 14th leader of the Liberal Party and is set to be the 24th Prime Minister of Canada. Despite previously rejecting political offers, Carney entered politics amid rising tensions with the U.S. under Donald Trump’s administration. Known for his pragmatic approach, Carney's leadership marks a shift from Justin Trudeau's emotive style. The key question is whether he can effectively address Canada's challenges or if his tenure will be short-lived.

Court injunction sought against Alberta government's new transgender youth health care legislation

Lawyers for two LGBTQ+ advocacy organizations are in court Monday for the first step in their fight against the Alberta government's transgender law that prevents doctors from providing gender-affirming treatments, including puberty blockers and hormone therapy for youths under the age of 16.

Egale Canada and Alberta's Skipping Stone Foundation, joined by the families of five gender-diverse Alberta youths, launched the legal action against the provincial government in December after Bill 26 received royal assent. It has not yet been proclaimed.

The groups are challenging the constitutionality of the bill and seeking an injunction that would protect youth access to the health care in question while the courts decide whether the law is constitutional.

Egale has called the Alberta government's actions "unprecedented" and " sweeping attack on the rights, safety and freedoms of 2SLGBTQI people in Alberta."

The Archdiocese of St. Boniface in the Roman Catholic Church is being sued by a man who says he was sexually assaulted by a former priest at the church in the village of Somerset, Man., in the 1970s.

The plaintiff is now in his 60s and his statement of claim filed March 3 in Manitoba Court of King's Bench says that sexual assaults took place between 1972 and 1980 when the plaintiff was about 13 to 21 years old.

Trump threatens Ontario 'will pay a financial price' for levy on U.S.-bound electricity

U.S. President Donald Trump issued numerous threats aimed at Ontario and Canada on Tuesday after the province imposed a surcharge on electricity flowing south of the border.

In a series of meandering posts to his Truth Social platform, Trump said Ontario "will pay a financial price for this so big that it will be read about in History Books for many years to come!"

He went on to accuse Canada of "stooping so low as to use ELECTRICITY, that so affects the life of innocent people, as a bargaining chip and threat" in the trade war his administration started.

Those comments came shortly after an earlier post in which Trump said he'll double tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum starting Wednesday in response to Ontario's electricity levy.

"Based on Ontario, Canada, placing a 25% Tariff on "Electricity" coming into the United States, I have instructed my Secretary of Commerce to add an ADDITIONAL 25% Tariff, to 50%, on all STEEL and ALUMINUM COMING INTO THE UNITED STATES FROM CANADA," Trump wrote.

Starting April 11, Canadians and other foreign nationals staying in the U.S. for 30 days or longer will need to register and provide fingerprints to the Department of Homeland Security. This requirement stems from a January 20 executive order. Unlike previous exemptions for Canadians, citizenship will not exclude travelers, including snowbirds, from the new regulations.
