Kenora residents applaud ‘fantastic’ move to permanent daylight time - Global News

Whether it’s watching NHL games, appointment scheduling or just less confusion, some residents of Kenora, Ont. say permanent daylight saving time is a “fantastic” move. Scott Green, owner and operator of Lake of the Woods Marina and Service Centre, said Wednesday he loves that the community will stick to the same time zone as Manitoba going forward. “I love it as long as we’re still matching with Winnipeg and Manitoba,” he said in an interview with Global News. Green added his marina also has a restaurant and bar that hosts Winnipeg Jets watch parties during the season. He said with the permanent change, watching the game “just times out better.” He added it will also make it easier if travelling to Winnipeg for a Jets game. The Ontario government announced Tuesday that northwestern Ontario communities west of the 90th meridian would stop the twice-annual clock changes and stay on daylight time year-round.

The battle over bike lanes in Toronto has emerged as a dividing line between Olivia Chow and Brad Bradford supporters leading into this month’s municipal election, exclusive polling shows. The revelation was made in a new Nanos Research survey conducted on behalf of CP24 and CTV News about traffic and transportation in Toronto ahead of the municipal election. Nanos Research surveyed 757 randomly selected Toronto residents between Oct. 8 and Oct. 10 and asked them what the “biggest transportation issue facing Toronto” is. It found that 46 per cent of respondents see traffic congestion as the city’s greatest inconvenience. That view was shared among Chow and Bradford supporters, as well as across respondents of every borough, gender, and age surveyed. Nanos poll graphic The second-biggest pain point when it comes to getting around Toronto was TTC reliability at 19 per cent. In Scarborough, roughly 23 per cent of respondents identified transit as an issue, the highest share of any borough.

A real estate developer told jurors he trusted the ‘Crypto King’ with $3.6M. Then he secretly recorded their calls - Toronto Star

Aiden Pletersk, 27, has pleaded not guilty to defrauding investors and money laundering. Sacha Singh — a self‑described financially savvy real‑estate developer — told jurors Wednesday he funneled more than $3.6 million into Aiden Pleterski’s purported crypto and foreign‑exchange enterprise, convinced the young man was generating extraordinary returns for people in his circle — and despite knowing the venture carried significant risk. “I know a lot of big entrepreneurs these days in the crypto space are younger kids, very savvy,” Singh said, citing global examples of billionaires who launched companies in their teens or early twenties.

Living in Calgary showed me Albertans don't realize how good they have it, but their grievances are real - CBC

Canada·First PersonAs an engineer from Saskatchewan, Chris Regier was taken aback by some of the opulence he saw in Alberta's oil and gas sector. He says his decade of experience in the province showed him two things can be true at the same time: Alberta is better off than other provinces and yet there are legitimate concerns about equalization.

In Unreliable Boyfriend, Chrystia Freeland details the rift between her and Trudeau - CBC

In Unreliable Boyfriend, one-time finance minister and deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland digs into how her political relationship with Justin Trudeau went from a warm face-to-face invite into public service to a cold Zoom call where he booted her from the finance role years later. While the book's "unreliable boyfriend" is the United States under U. S. President Donald Trump, readers could be forgiven for thinking the title is actually inspired by Trudeau. She enthuses about how the pair worked together on the trade file, their management of the pandemic and their rollout of national child care. Yet she also details Trudeau's slide into unpopularity, penchant for humiliating members of his cabinet, word-policing and tendency to pick on those weaker than him. While their relationship ended bitterly, she is still able to praise Trudeau for his strengths, one of which she noticed at a party in Toronto in late 2012, before Trudeau the Liberal MP became Trudeau the prime minister. At that party celebrating the launch of Freeland's book Plutocrats, her father cornered Trudeau to convey his thoughts on politics, eager to speak with "Liberal political royalty.

'He Is Deeply Unwell': Trump Blasted For Claiming Canada Will Become America's '51st State' - Yahoo News Canada

Donald Trump finishes speaking at a campaign rally at Majestic Valley Arena. via Associated PressDonald Trump has been condemned online after claiming Canada "will become the 51st state" of America. The US president's remarks threaten to reignite his feud with Canadian prime minister Mark Carney. Relations between the two countries have been badly damaged by an ongoing trade war, with Trump threatening to slap huge tariffs on Canadian goods. Trump has also angered the US's northern neighbour by unilaterally renaming Lake Ontario – which straddles the border between the countries – as Lake America. That sparked a backlash from Carney, who said: "We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms. "Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always. "Speaking at a campaign rally ahead of the upcoming midterm elections, Trump once again accused Canada of ripping America off, and said the only way to stop it is by taking them over. He said: "Canada treats us very badly, they always have. Not any more. It's a whole different ball game now Trump is in town.
