The carbon tax is (nearly) dead. Now what?

It might seem like a distant memory now, but it's worth remembering that every major federal party ran in 2021 on a platform that included a consumer carbon tax.

Nearly every single Liberal, NDP and Conservative MP who currently sits in the House of Commons — up to and including Pierre Poilievre, who now says Canada needs a "carbon tax election" so he can "axe the tax" — won their seat while carrying a commitment to apply a price on carbon.

The carbon tax had survived both a provincial legal challenge and Doug Ford's stickers. The Conservative platform in 2021 stated, "We recognize that the most efficient way to reduce our emissions is to use pricing mechanisms."

SNC-Lavalin, now AtkinsRéalis, facing $100M in legal claims from Trillium contractors

The City of Ottawa's private partner in building its newly re-opened north-south commuter rail line is facing more than $100 million in legal claims alleging its inability to properly manage the project led to costly delays. 

AtkinsRéalis, the rebranded engineering giant formerly known as SNC-Lavalin, won the $1.6-billion contract to expand and maintain the diesel Trillium Line through a newly created subsidiary called TransitNext — despite failing the technical round during the bidding process. OC Transpo began a phased opening of the line this month, more than two years later than expected.

Cambridge Food Bank in urgent search for new home as lease expiration nears and demand grows

The Cambridge Food Bank is urgently trying to find a new place to call home, and CEO Dianne McLeod is making an appeal for help. She said in addition to time running out on its current lease, lack of space is making it difficult to adequately serve an increasing number of people. "Our lease is going to be up in about four years, but more critically is the lack of space that we have here at 54 Ainslie [Street South]," McLeod told CBC News.

McLeod said the food bank usually serves around 800 people per month in what she said was a "tight" space, and that number has now increased to approximately 2,100 people per month, "which has made it exponentially more difficult."

Vancouver Public Library defends policy that prevents staff from wearing Palestinian symbols

The head of the Vancouver Public Library is defending a policy that dictates what symbols its roughly 800 staff can wear while at work, amid concerns from employees that the rules unfairly single out symbols that show support for Palestinians.

VPL's interim chief librarian and CEO Dawn Ibey said Monday in an interview with CBC News that the VPL's policy applies to all political symbols.  "We're not singling out any particular symbol, but the goal of the policy is to ensure that all employees have a safe and respectful workplace that's free from bullying, harassment and discrimination," she said.
