Highway protests won't be tolerated during G7 summit in Kananaskis, head of security says

The head of security for the upcoming G7 leaders' summit in Kananaskis says his group is still working with the Town of Banff on the precise location of a "demonstration zone" for protesters to express their opinions, but it's already been determined where demonstrators won't be allowed — on highways.

"We're not going to be able to tolerate a protest on a highway," Alberta RCMP Chief Supt. David Hall told The Homestretch on Thursday.

"It's not safe for motorists; it's not safe for the protesters, themselves. And so that's something that we would look to quickly move off of a highway, in the event that a protest established on the highway."

Firefighter Saves Sleeping Brothers from Saskatoon Brush Fire

A Saskatoon firefighter rescued his two sleeping brothers from a fast-moving brush fire that threatened their home. The firefighter, who was off-duty at the time, noticed the approaching flames and quickly acted to wake his siblings and evacuate them to safety. Thanks to his prompt response, all three escaped unharmed. The fire, fueled by dry conditions and strong winds, was contained by emergency crews later that day. Authorities are investigating the cause of the blaze and urge residents to remain vigilant during wildfire season.

Kingston Police's use of a drone to catch distracted drivers stirs backlash

Drivers at three busy intersections in Kingston, Ont., had no way of knowing they were being watched earlier this month, but high above them police hovered, zooming in to catch those using their phones while behind the wheel. By the end of the day on May 7, officers had handed out 20 tickets for distracted driving — each alleged violation captured on video by a drone flying overhead.

It was the first time Kingston Police had used the tactic, and as residents  heard what was going on, debate began to swell on social media between those who felt it had crossed a line and others who believed a novel approach was needed.

NDP holds Nunavut after Elections Canada validates results

After a delay due to a blizzard, Elections Canada has validated the results in Nunavut and confirmed NDP incumbent Lori Idlout has prevailed over Liberal challenger Kilikvak Kabloona.

The results were posted on Elections Canada's website Friday evening. Validation is a procedure in which Elections Canada double-checks and verifies the numbers reported on election night.

It took more than two weeks for Elections Canada to validate the results because the final ballot box from the community of Naujaat was delayed. It was sent to Iqaluit but got stuck at the airline cargo facility in Rankin Inlet when a rare late-spring blizzard hit Iqaluit on Thursday.

Liberals will table a budget this fall, Prime Minister Mark Carney says

Prime Minister Mark Carney said Sunday morning in Rome that his Liberal government will table a budget this fall — a decision he argued is the right one because there's "not much value" in rushing out a budget at the earliest opportunity.

"We will have a much more comprehensive, effective, ambitious, prudent budget in the fall," Carney said at a media conference in Rome, where world leaders have gathered to commemorate Pope Leo XIV's inaugural mass. "You do these things right and that's what we're going to do."

Canada needs more homes. Prefabricated houses could fill the void

Terra Page's new house was the talk of her Toronto neighbourhood. That makes sense, since it was delivered on a truck.
"It was like watching a really cool giant Lego box being assembled," Page told Cost of Living.
When Page found tree roots growing in the pipes of their 100-year-old house, Page and her family decided their best move would be to demolish the house and build anew. That's when their contractor suggested a "prefab" house — one that would be built off-site, then shipped to the lot.

Eco-friendly transportation a condition of planned Ottawa Senators arena

Public transit, cycling and walking will be the "primary and preferred modes" of getting fans to and from the Ottawa Senators' planned downtown arena, says a newly disclosed agreement on the project.

Under the agreement, a group led by the NHL team would be responsible for designing, building and paying for a publicly accessible cycling and pedestrian bridge linking a major Ottawa street to the LeBreton Flats arena site. In addition, the arena and associated elements would be "zero carbon" buildings — highly energy-efficient structures with minimal greenhouse gas emissions from materials and operations.

Volunteers ramp up search for 62-year-old man missing in Prince Albert since March 31

Dozens of volunteers, along with Prince Albert police, are searching for 62-year-old Dilbert Thomas, who has been missing since Monday, March 31. The search began Monday at 9 a.m., with Search and Rescue Saskatchewan Association of Volunteers leading it. Monday's search takes place between 42nd Street East and 48th Street East to Central Avenue in Prince Albert.

The Prince Albert Police Service says Thomas was last seen walking by himself south of the city on 5th Avenue East. Thomas was wearing a black jacket, dark blue pants with white stripes at the bottom, and black glasses when he went missing. Thomas is from Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation's community of Southend, and the police says it's unusual for him to not be in contact with his family. PBCN put out a release asking for the public's assistance to find Thomas on April 10.
