How bayanihan is grounding Filipino Canadians in 'ethics of care' after Lapu-Lapu Day tragedy

"It was meant to be a day filled with music, dancing, food, laughter."

Rev. Expedito Farinas choked up as he addressed mourners on Sunday at St. Mary the Virgin South Hill, an Anglican church with a largely Filipino congregation just a 15-minute walk away from where tragedy had occurred the night before.

The Lapu-Lapu Day Block Party began as a day of "great celebration honouring our heritage, our culture, our tradition," Farinas told CBC Radio's On The Coast.

Hundreds of people sang along to artists like Black Eyed Peas' Apl.de.Ap.

Filipino vendors and food trucks lined the streets to serve the tens of thousands of people who visited throughout the day.

Evacuation Orders Lifted as Hixon Wildfire Stabilizes in British Columbia

A wildfire near Hixon, British Columbia, which began on May 2, 2025, grew to approximately 70 hectares and prompted evacuation orders for five properties and alerts for five others. By May 3, favorable weather conditions and firefighting efforts led to the rescinding of all evacuation orders and alerts. The fire, located north of Naver Creek, is believed to be human-caused. While no longer posing an immediate threat, authorities advise residents to remain vigilant as conditions can change rapidly.

Carleton to cut back on contract instructors amid $32-million budget hole

Carleton University is planning to slash its contract instructor workforce in half as it deals with a $32-million deficit, much to the dismay of the instructors' union.

At a meeting on April 29, the university's board of governors approved its 2025-26 budget, which saw its financial shortfall grow by $6 million over 2024-25 and which includes a plan to avoid a potential $80-million deficit by 2028-29. But the steps being taken to stave off further financial woes is concerning, said Ryan Conrad, a contract instructor and president of Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) local 4600, which represents Carleton's contract instructors, teaching assistants and research assistants.

'Everybody's pulling for the one goal': Search for missing Pictou County children enters third day

As the search for two missing Pictou County children enters its third day, the RCMP officer overseeing the search efforts says foggy conditions Sunday both help and hinder their work.

Lily Sullivan, 6, and Jack Sullivan, 4, were last seen Friday on Gairloch Road in Lansdowne Station, about 20 kilometres southwest of New Glasgow, N.S.

RCMP Staff Sgt. Josh Wiese, who is leading the ground search and rescue operations, says fog gets in the way of drones and helicopters, but the cooler conditions help the searchers, who already face challenging conditions.

B.C. company wants to open $300M made-in-Canada sand mine to fuel anticipated fracking, LNG boom

Vitreo Minerals is proposing a $300 million silica sand mine near Bear Lake, north of Prince George, B.C., to support Canada’s growing liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry by supplying locally sourced sand for hydraulic fracturing. The company argues this would reduce reliance on U.S. imports and create around 150 jobs. However, the proposal has raised concerns among environmental groups, especially as it aligns with the province’s push to fast-track industrial projects, which critics say could undermine B.C.’s climate goals. The public can give feedback at a May 13 open house.

Quebec to mandate formal 'vous' in schools for respect. Teachers say leave it to us

Quebec Education Minister Bernard Drainville says he wants to improve civility in the province's schools by requiring students to address their teachers using a title, such as Mr. or Ms., as well as the more formal and polite form of 'you' in French — vous rather than tu.

Schools will also have an obligation to formalize the value of respect in their codes of conduct and parents will have to sign that code to ensure they are aware of it.

Using vous is a sign of respect, Drainville said during a Friday interview on Radio-Canada's Tout un matin French radio show.

"I think we need that in schools right now," he said, adding it's about respecting adults and respecting one's function and the institution it represents.

New Liberal government should scrap EV tariffs on China to help trade, climate goals, say critics

As Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday, the federal government has its work cut out for it following a tumultuous few months in domestic politics — not just on the tariff front with the U.S., but also with the world's second-largest economy.

In the fall, Canada followed in the footsteps of then-U.S. president Joe Biden in implementing an additional 100 per cent surtax on Chinese-made electric vehicles — a move critics say makes less sense now considering the fractured relationship with our southern neighbours, our climate goals and China's counter-tariffs on Canadian canola farmers.

"That was a dumb policy, and we … followed suit by demonstrating our allegiance [to the U.S.]," said Jessica Green, political science professor at the University of Toronto who focuses on climate change and global climate politics.

Ottawa city councillor wants debate, reversal of Tewin development

An Ottawa city councillor wants to reverse a council decision made four years ago and prevent the 445-hectare Tewin development in the city's rural southeast from being built. But city staff asked to provide comments about Coun. Theresa Kavanagh's idea have laid out the many implications of changing course now that plans and projects have proceeded with the assumption the future suburb is a go.

During deliberations in 2021 about expanding Ottawa's urban boundary, the previous city council voted to allow rural lands owned by Algonquins of Ontario Realty Corp. and Taggart Group to be developed to house up to 45,000 people.
