U. S. President Donald Trump is hitting the campaign trail as Republican candidates across the country face tough races in the midterm elections, and he has fallen back on a familiar target – Canada.
During a campaign rally in Arizona on Wednesday, Trump revived his rhetoric on wanting Canada to be “51st state” of the United States. “They’ll end up being the 51st state, because that’s the only way it works,” Trump told the crowd at his rally. “We don’t need them, but they need us,” Trump said, adding that Canada would be “doing something just like Greenland.”This was an apparent reference to an Arctic security agreement Trump signed with Denmark and Greenland last month, paving the way for more U. S. bases in Greenland and easing tensions over his repeated calls for the vast island to become part of the United States. Story continues below advertisement

For nearly three decades, Sports Page shaped how British Columbians experienced local sports. And as of next week, the iconic institution is returning, albeit in an entirely different format. The iconic BC-based sports highlights television program that helped kickstart the careers of broadcasters such as Don Taylor, John Shorthouse, Blake Price, and many others went off the air in 2005. Another of those broadcasters was Scott Rintoul, who is part of a group of three individuals championing the effort to revive Sports Page with a modern approach. The “new Sports Page” officially launches next week, on October 14th, and its website is sportspagebc.ca. To start, the website will feature some original content but will focus more on amplifying stories already being told across the province. “We’re going to have original content, and that’s going to be modest to start,” said Rintoul. “That’s the hard part for me, is that I love seeing the groundswell of support because of the nostalgia that comes with the play on the name [Sports Page]. But it’s not going to be that at the beginning.

Pediatricians renew call to ban raw milk as anti-science rhetoric reigns - Ars Technica
As many doctors are moving ahead with the latest advances of modern medicine—from powerful obesity drugs to breakthrough cancer treatments—pediatricians are being forced to turn back, fighting to maintain advances in children’s health that were hard-won decades ago. With anti-vaccine advocate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as health secretary, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has spent a considerable amount of time and resources in the past year fiercely defending lifesaving vaccinations—safe, routine shots that have saved the lives of millions of children over decades and thwarted untold suffering and disability.
