49,000 without power in Ontario as ice storm moves through province

About 49,000 customers are currently without power in Ontario as an ice storm pummels parts of the province, Hydro One said. 
The outages, which are concentrated in central and eastern Ontario, are being caused by tree limbs and branches weighed down by freezing rain that break and fall onto power lines, said spokesperson Tiziana Baccega Rosa. 
She said some areas in the province, which are known as water-access only, may be without power for more than 24 hours.

Judge rejects Hudson's Bay restructuring proposal intended to save remaining stores

An Ontario judge has rejected a restructuring agreement for Hudson’s Bay Company, increasing the risk of receivership. The agreement would have set an April deadline to save remaining stores and given more control to senior secured lenders. It also imposed a strict budget and required lender approval for any sale of the business. Justice Peter Osborne ruled the agreement was "neither necessary nor appropriate at this time."

At least 1 dead, 7 injured in collisions during weekend ice storm

Ontario Provincial Police have reported two major collisions and dozens of minor ones Saturday as snow and freezing rain pelts most of eastern Ontario. 

Environment Canada became increasingly sure on Thursday and Friday that the region would be hit with a major ice storm over the weekend. The weather agency initially expected the freezing rain to turn into rain by Sunday, but the agency has since extended many of its freezing rain warnings into Sunday.

Canadian researchers are being asked politically charged questions when trying to secure U.S. grants

Academic researchers are used to filling out forms when applying for grants, but Canadian scholars have expressed shock over a new questionnaire they are receiving when applying for funding issued in part or wholly by the U.S. government.

"Can you confirm that this is no DEI project or DEI elements of the project?" asks one question, with an accompanying link to U.S. President Donald Trump's executive order to nix funding from government programs dealing with diversity, equity and inclusion.

"Can you confirm this is not a climate or "environmental justice" project or include such elements?" asks another.

Yet another asks if a project "defends women from gender ideology" — another reference to a Trump executive order.

Sask. judge rules Regina refinery was justified firing 2 workers who wouldn't follow pandemic protocols

A Saskatoon judge has ruled that Consumers' Co-operative Refineries Ltd. (CCRL) did not overstep when it fired two workers at its Regina plant after they refused to follow pandemic protocols. Dallas Shuparski and Ward Rubin refused to comply with CCRL policy on vaccination and testing in October 2021. They were fired in January 2022.

The decision by Justice Richard Danyliuk overturns an arbitrator's decision that had ruled in favour of the workers. Unifor Local 594 had successfully grieved their firing, then CCRL requested a judicial review.

No, Pierre Poilievre's net worth is not $25M, despite what dubious AI-generated articles say

In the run up to the federal election, many Canadians want to know more about the personal finances of the party leaders vying to be prime minister. But those who search for answers about this topic online will often find only misinformation and unsubstantiated claims promoted by AI chatbots.

Welcome to the first Canadian federal election of the generative AI age.

This is the story about how an obscure website featuring little-read articles that appear to be AI-generated became one of the most influential sources of information on the web when it comes to Canadian party leaders' personal finances.

Over the past couple of weeks, angry comments have surfaced on social media. Some Canadian voters are convinced that the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada (CPC), Pierre Poilievre, has accumulated a vast personal fortune worth $25 million.

The consumer carbon tax is gone as of today. What will that mean for your wallet?

Prime Minister Mark Carney officially ended the consumer carbon tax on April 1, eliminating fuel charges of 17.6 cents per litre for gasoline and 15.25 cents per cubic metre for natural gas. Carney, who once supported the tax, reversed his stance during his leadership campaign, calling it too divisive. While the consumer tax is gone, industrial polluters will still pay a carbon price. The tax, introduced in 2019 under Justin Trudeau, aimed to encourage greener energy use but faced opposition from provinces and became a key target for Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre.

Gas prices tumble across B.C. after carbon tax lifted in late-night legislative session

Gas prices across B.C. have seen a sharp decline after the consumer carbon tax was lifted in the early hours of April 1. B.C. was the first jurisdiction in North America to introduce widespread carbon pricing through a consumer tax in 2008. The policy was popular for years, surviving left- and right-leaning governments.

But Premier David Eby says it became "toxic," following years of "axe the tax" campaigning from both federal and provincial Conservatives, and he vowed to do away with it once the federal government introduced the means to do so.  (Notably, the first party to use the "axe the tax" campaign was the B.C. NDP, after the carbon tax was introduced by the governing B.C. Liberals in 2008).

Neo-Nazi terror propagandist 'Dark Foreigner' guilty on all counts

An Ottawa man has been found guilty of sowing hate, fear and division by helping create racist recruitment videos and other terrorist propaganda for a now defunct far-right international terrorist group and a prominent neo-Nazi.

Superior Court Justice Robert Smith found Patrick Gordon Macdonald guilty of the three charges he faced: participating in terrorist activity, facilitating terrorist activity, and inciting hate against Jews for one or more terrorist entities, including Atomwaffen Division and the neo-Nazi James Mason.

Macdonald, 27, occasionally looked at the floor but otherwise showed no emotion during the judgment. His parents looked on from separate benches at the rear of the courtroom.
