I just landed from Norway a few hours ago after speaking at a food safety conference in Oslo for two days and chasing the Northern Lights for a few more. On Oct. 2 the Food and Drug Administration closed its investigation of the largest Cyclospora outbreak in American history and said where it found the parasite: in a tank of wastewater leaving the Taylor Farms de Mexico plant that shredded the lettuce, and in a drainage ditch at a grower that supplied it. The outbreak sickened 12,883 people in 21 states, hospitalized 570 and killed two. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention counted 19,883 laboratory-confirmed cases this season, nearly 17 times the year before. Roughly 7,000 confirmed cases were never tied to any food. The CDC’s own burden model assumes about 83 illnesses for every confirmed case, which puts the real number in the hundreds of thousands. The outbreak is over. However, nothing that allowed it has changed. The next growing season in central Mexico begins this fall, and the system that is supposed to catch the next parasite is smaller than it was when it missed this one.

TorontoPublished: October 17, 2026 at 2:31p.m. EDTThe next Lotto Max draw is on Tuesday, Oct. 20, 2026. The largest lottery prize ever offered in Canada is still up for grabs after there were no winners for Friday’s Lotto Max draw. The winning numbers were 01, 11, 13, 36, 41, 43, 51. The next draw for the $90 million Lotto Max will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 20. The jackpot is unchanged, as $90 million is the cap. While no one claimed the jackpot on Friday, the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation said four Maxmillion tickets worth $1 million each were sold in Ontario. Fourteen other tickets won $100,000 each, including seven in the Greater Toronto Area. Tuesday’s draw will also feature 20 Maxmillions prizes worth $1 million each and at least 90 Maxplus prizes worth $100,000 each.

The Supreme Court of Newfoundland and Labrador has certified a class action on behalf of passengers on board Air Canada Flight AC 2259 which landed hard at Halifax in December of 2025 after the plane’s landing gear collapsed. The flight had taken off from St. John’s International earlier that evening, and officials at YYT later confirmed that debris was found on one of its runways after the flight took off. They wouldn’t say at the time whether the discovery was related to the incident at Halifax. The class action names Air Canada, Provincial Aerospace Ltd, St. John’s International Airport Authority and the Halifax International Airport Authority, all of whom have consented to certification. Stephen Barnes of Bob Buckingham Law says they want to understand what went wrong that night and make sure that passengers have an opportunity to be fairly compensated for what they went through. The case will examine whether the defendants met their responsibilities for aircraft safety, runway safety and emergency response, and whether any failures caused injury or loss to passengers.
