New Alberta school books order bans explicit images of sexual acts
Alberta's revised rules on books in schools will prohibit works containing explicit images of sexual acts, but not written descriptions of the same, according to a new ministerial order published Monday.
The original ministerial order, issued in July, asked school employees to remove library materials that depicted sexual acts, including a "written passage."
That prompted Edmonton Public Schools to assemble a list of 226 books to remove from shelves and classrooms, including well-known works such as The Handmaid's Tale, The Color Purple, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, The Godfather and Jaws.

Ontario mayor proposes clamping wheels of Quebec vehicles until parking fines paid
The mayor of Gananoque, Ont., has used new powers granted by the province to propose changing the town's parking bylaw to single out vehicles with Quebec licence plates by clamping their wheels until their owners pay parking tickets. John Beddows said the 27-point "mayoral directive" he issued under his recently acquired strong mayor powers is merely a draft document, meant as guidance for municipal staff as they plan the budget.
In an interview with CBC, Beddows said his purpose in including the point about vehicles from Quebec was to "have the idea explored," and dismissed pushback as a "tempest in a teapot."

New analysis indicates higher lethality of avian flu at B.C. ostrich farm: CFIA vet
An affidavit by Canada's deputy chief veterinarian says new analysis has confirmed ostriches at a British Columbia farm that is fighting a cull order for its flock were sickened by a unique and more lethal strain of the avian influenza virus.
The affidavit by Cathy Furness with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) says further investigation of samples taken from the birds revealed the "novel reassortment" of the virus has "enhanced the pathogenicity" of the strain.
It says the strain was "among the most virulent" tested at Canada's National Microbiology Laboratory and even low doses killed mice within a few days.

More than 10,000 full-time support workers from Ontario's 24 public colleges are going on strike starting Thursday in an effort to ensure job security, says the union.
The College Employer Council (CEC) "walked away from the [negotiation] table" after failing to respond since 4 p.m. Wednesday, said the support staff bargaining team from the Ontario Public Service Employees' Union (OPSEU). "If they think they can neglect their responsibility to bargain, it's time we remind them there is power in the union," said the OPSEU in an emailed statement.
