Canada’s ambassador to Saudi Arabia said on Sunday the embassy in Riyadh remains open for Canadians in need of consular assistance, which came as Ottawa condemned Houthi attacks on the international airport in Riyadh. Ambassador Jean-Philippe Linteau said in a video on Sunday that anyone in Riyadh who encounters military debris should walk away and contact authorities, and not post about it on social media. The Saudi-led coalition fighting Houthi rebels in Yemen said another projectile hit a passenger terminal at the Riyadh airport on Sunday. That comes just a day after a missile attack on the same terminal killed 12 people and injured hundreds more. Canada issued a travel advisory to avoid all non-essential travel to Saudi Arabia, and to avoid all travel to the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh. Prime Minister Mark Carney condemned the violence late Saturday night, calling the Houthis’ attacks on civilian infrastructure “abhorrent” and unjustified. Story continues below advertisement

French national Arnaud Gauthier says he was shocked when he read an email from the ministry saying his immigration application had expired. Up until that moment, he had understood the deadline was still a month away. "All this creates a source of anxiety that really isn't necessary. We don't even know if it's a bug, there's no communication," he said Sunday.

Since December 15, 2025, a Canadian ancestor, any number of generations back, can make you a Canadian citizen by descent if you were born before that date. To confirm it, you apply for proof of Canadian citizenship and show a documented and direct unbroken lineage from your Canadian ancestor to you.

A Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) gives you a lot of flexibility, but that flexibility can also lead to mistakes. You can withdraw money whenever you want without paying tax, which sounds simple enough. The part Canadians sometimes forget is that you have to wait until the next calendar year to get that withdrawal amount added back to your contribution room limit. Put the money back too soon without enough available room, and you could create an overcontribution problem. That is one reason I always recommend treating a TFSA as a place for long-term investing instead of constant trading and withdrawals. The longer you remain invested in fundamentally strong businesses, the more time their earnings, dividends, and share-price growth have to compound.

Canada took the lead early in their friendly against Denmark on Monday afternoon, but an afternoon full of self-inflicted wounds saw them lose 4-3 at Toronto’s BMO Field. The first meeting between these teams on Friday at Montréal’s Stade Saputo ended in a 1-1 draw after 90 minutes, after Olivia Smith struck an 84th-minute shot across the face of the Danish goal, cancelling out Pernille Harder’s first-half opener. Smith came off the bench along with Kaylee Hunter and DB Pridham in that one, and all three were rewarded by Casey Stoney with a start in game two for their standout performances.

A graduate in German, Jake has a passion for history and regional aviation, and enjoys sampling new carriers and aircraft. He has visited OEM facilities as far and wide as Bristol, Toulouse, and Seattle, and recently enjoyed the milestone of flying his 150th sector as a passenger. Based in Norfolk, UK. 2026 has been a difficult year for aviation, with airlines of all shapes and sizes around the world coming to terms with fuel price hikes and fluctuations in demand that are often tied to the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. With this in mind, some route churn has been inevitable, and even major airlines like Air Canada have not been exempt: the flag carrier has cut 14 routes this year. According to Cirium, an aviation analytics company, the carrier's route cuts this year have focused on its three main hubs. These are Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) in Quebec, Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) in Ontario, and Vancouver International Airport (YVR) in British Columbia. The affected routes are both domestic and international corridors.

When I’m looking for a stock to buy, I want its growth story to be simple. I want a business that is growing, making money, and creating ways to expand over time. I also want to see enough financial strength that one weak quarter wouldn’t suddenly change everything. Two Canadian stocks are currently checking a lot of those boxes for me. That’s why I’m considering buying both.

On Sunday, Vancouver’s Thomas Nobbs ran a speedy 2:08:35 to finish 17th at the Bank of America Chicago Marathon. He was the top Canadian finisher and once again moved up the national all-time list to become the third-fastest marathoner, behind national record holder Cam Levins and marathon star Rory Linkletter, who made a surprise appearance. Ben Flanagan of Kitchener, Ont., was the next Canadian finisher, clocking 2:12:36 for 28th overall. The reigning national marathon champion opted not to defend his title at the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon on Oct. 18, instead choosing the faster course and coming away with a new personal best. In Dec. 2025, Thomas Fafard of Repentigny, Que., smashed the Quebec provincial marathon record in his debut at last year’s The Marathon Project in Arizona with a 2:10:29, but couldn’t set another PB on Sunday. He finished 38th overall, in 2:16:23.
