Union president not worried about Rio Tinto's low-carbon processing half a world away

As metals giant Rio Tinto kicks off a restructuring process at its Labrador City iron ore mine, the union president says he doesn't expect to be hit hard by the company's work to develop its low-carbon iron-making process halfway across the world.

Labrador is a major producer of iron ore and nickel, which are major components in steel manufacturing. The region is also known for the high-grade iron ore pellets it produces, which is considered less-carbon intensive in the steel-making process.

India-based Bishnoi gang now listed as terrorist entity in Canada

The federal government has listed the India-based Bishnoi gang as a terrorist organization in Canada. The group was accused by the RCMP last year of orchestrating a campaign of violence and intimidation against Sikh activists in Canada. The new designation allows authorities to seize property and freeze accounts, and also bars Canadians from financing or aiding the group.

The move comes as Canada and India work to gradually re-establish trust in their diplomatic relations, after nearly two years of strain.

Alberta to pay families of younger children should teachers strike Oct. 6, government says

Alberta will offer parents $150 a week per child aged 12 and under if teachers strike on Oct. 6, affecting 700,000 students. Finance Minister Nate Horner said the payments, starting Oct. 31, will come from savings during the walkout. The government also launched an online learning “tool kit” for parents and pledged to hire 1,500 educational assistants by 2028. Teachers, who rejected the offer with 89.5% voting no, argue the plan fails to address pay, class size, and workload concerns.

B.C. Conservative staffer fired after comments on orange shirts, flag

A B.C. Conservative Party staffer who called the orange Survivors' flag — which honours residential school survivors — a "disgrace" and a "fake flag" on social media has been fired.

Lindsay Shepherd, who had worked as a communications officer for the B.C. Conservative caucus, faced widespread criticism after her posts on the social media platform X late last week.

Last Thursday, several NDP, Conservative and Green MLAs raised the Survivors' flag on the front steps of the legislature in Victoria, ahead of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on Sept. 30.

Winnipeg police officer pleads guilty to stealing iPad, iPhone from evidence

A veteran Winnipeg officer has pleaded guilty to stealing electronics from police evidence last year, including an iPad that was supposed to be returned to the victim of a robbery.

Const. Jeffrey Conrad was charged following an investigation by the Winnipeg Police Service professional standards unit, which began after officers discovered items missing from evidence control, police said in a news release in September 2024. Those items included an iPad that had been stolen from a 37-year-old woman during a robbery in January, then recovered by officers through routine checks of transactions at Winnipeg pawn shops.
