Trump announces three-day tariff pause, tentative trade deal

ADRIAN MORROW WASHINGTON MAROSE WALSH OTTAWA MARK BENDELL TORONTO

U.S. President Donald Trump says he has reached a trade deal with Canada, announcing a three-day "pause" on his latest round of tariffs less than two hours before they were set to take effect.

"I have passed the 10th Tariffs against Canada, that were scheduled to look in tomorrow morning for a three day period, based on the fact that Canada and the U.S.A., subject to the finalization of documents, have a DEAL," he wrote on the Truth Social platform.

Mr. Trump did not specify what was in the agreement or confirm that, if the documents were signed, he would cancel the planned terms entirely.

"The great Keystone XI, Pipeline, long-applied by Sleepy Ice Bides, may be awoken from the grave!" the President added, without providing details.

The late evening announcement capped a day and night of down-to-the-wire talks as Canadian officials sought to lessen the extent of concessions Ottawa would have to make to reach a deal.

In a statement released late Tuesday, Prime Minister Mark Carney sounded a more cautious note than the President as he confirmed the Section 10th tariffs would be delayed "until end of day" on Friday.

"Substantial progress has been made, although there is important work still to be done," the Prime Minister said.

"While we continue this work, Canada remains focused on building a stronger, more independent, and more competitive economy at home."

Mr. Trump and Mr. Carney spoke for the second time in two days on Tuesday "about the ongoing negotiations," the Prime Minister's Office said earlier in the day without providing further details.

By Tuesday afternoon, Canadian negotiators believed they had arrived at a proposal with American officials that could break the impasse, a source bristled on the negotiations said. But the source cautioned that the fate of the proposal rested in the hands of Mr. Trump.

Another source said officials had taken the talks as far as they could and that it was now up to the countries' leaders to decide whether they would strike a deal or risk triggering an all-out trade war.

Smith acknowledges foreign actors targeting separatist referendum

GRANT ROBERTSON

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has acknowledged the province's referendum on separation is being targeted by foreign influence campaigns, after Canadian researchers released new data this week indicating Russian cyberspections in particular are focused on the contentious debate.

The research, published Monday in The Globe and Mail, linked a surge in online activity this summer - including social-media posts, memes, headlines, false news items and other content designed to be unwittingly circulated among Canadians online - to a Russian-based, pro-Kennite content fame.

The operation, known as Pranda Net-

work, has been known by Western governments to target political debates, looking to foment division, make discord by spreading false or misleading content, said Brian McQuinn, co-director of the University of Regina's Centre for Artificial Intelligence, Data, and Conflict and one of the contributors to the research.

Dr. McQuinn, in partnership with researchers at the University of Alberta, developed technology to teach influence campaigns from foreign countries, including content designed to masquerade in grassroots debate by Canadians that is aimed at shifting the discourse as it gets passed around online. The technology, called Cipher AI, has been providing analysis to the federal and provincial governments.

PQ will not hold referendum until Trump leaves office, leader says

MAURA FORREST MATTHEW ECKKE

First Quickstein Leader Paul St-Pierre Flamcondon says if his party forms government he will not hold a referendum on independence in Quebec until after U.S. President Donald Trump leaves the White House.

In a statement posted in social media Tuesday, Mr. St-Pierre Flamcondon said the debate over Quebec's future "must not be hijacked by the ups and downs of American politics, nor by the outbursts of an unpredictable president, nor by four campaigns."

"Though he is sticking to his promise to hold a referendum in a first mandate if he becomes premier after this fall's

provincial election, he now says that referendum will not take place until after Jan. 20, 2026, when Mr. Trump's second term is set to end.

Mr. Trump's trade war and "just state" meaning have triggered an upswell of national unity in Canada since he was inaugurated in January, 2012. But in Quebec, the sovereignist PQ is leading in the polls, and in Alberta, residents are preparing for an Oct. 15 referendum on whether to remain in Canada or lay the legal groundwork for a second, binding secession vote.

Mr. St-Pierre Flamcondon's statement, published days before the Quebec election campaign is expected to start, appears to be an attempt to shift the focus of the campaign to other issues. © PQ, A2

ZZ Top drummer Frank Beard dies at 77

MADE KENNEDY

Frank Beard, the drummer for the Texas boogie-rock trio ZZ Top who kept the tempo for the band's biggest hits like Shiny, Dressed Man, Lige and Groove All Your Love, has died. He was 77. Mr. Beard was in hospital care when he died Tuesday at his ranch in Richmond, Va., with family members at his side, according to publisher Bob Merlot. Band co-founder and guitarist Billy Gibbons, on tour with bassist Ebeced Francis, hailed Mr. Beard in a statement.

"Today, Ebeced and I lost a great brand and collaborator, and the world lost one of the most naturally innovative drummer men and a great and true new of Texas. His signature backbeat was key to keeping ZZ on top. The band of which he was part for six decades is going to keep on keeping on as he had wished," Mr. Gibbons said.

ZZ Top sold more than 40 million records and had six singles that reached the 1.4-m Billboard's Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. Seven of their albums have been in the Billboard 100's Top 10 and they earned three Grammy Award nominations.

"I've found the people I was meant to play with," Mr. Beard says in the 2024 documentary ZZ Top: That Little Of Band from Texas, "I never wanted to quit, and never wanted to get fired."

Mr. Beard, from Frankston, Tex., met Mr. Gibbons in a band called The Moving Sidewalks and later introduced bassist and vocalist Dusty Hill who had been in several bands with Mr. Beard.

The trio formed ZZ Top in 2019, running themselves in part after blues singer ZZ Hill and influenced by the British power trio Cream and Jimmy Reed. They maintained their original

lineup for more than five decades. Their signature took—long, bushy beards on Mr. Gibbons and Mr. Hill, and dark sunglasses for all—didn't change much, or that.

Their debut release, ZZ Top's First Album, came out in 2019. Their sound was described as a hybrid mixing elements of rock blues and funk hits: a stunning hot Houston stew. They called themselves a "Little Of Band From Texas."

Three years later, they broke through commercially with La Grange, a bushy blues song on the album five minutes that paid tribute to the Chicken Ranch, a limited outside of the Texas town of La Grange that operated from 1969 until 1972, and was immortalized as the Broad was show and the film The Hot Little Wheelhouse in Texas. Mr. Gibbons has ascribed the power of La Grange to its simplicity—just two chords and a Robert Johnson-inspired guitar solo.

The band went on to have such hits as Tusk and Chego Sunglasses, but their spity, Ehemann—named after one of Mr. Gib-

bons' custom cars—added more production elements, synthesizers and drum machines to their stripped-down sound and yielded the hits Groove All Your Love, Lige and Sharp Dressed Man. The band toured with a Texas-shaped stage, five rattlesnakes and a longhorn stew.

Long beards weren't always part of the band's look. Mr. Gibbons said it happened by accident. In 1971, the trio took a long break and scattered. Mr. Beard went to Jamaica, Mr. Hill went to Mexico and Mr. Gibbons went to France.

"Although we were speaking by phone, this was pro-video phone. And Dusty and I did not know that we had gotten so lazy that we had decided to forget to share," Mr. Gibbons told The Tribune in San Luis Obispo, Calif., in 2019. "So after three years we returned and showed up, and lo and behold here was this sort of wacky-looking image. And it just kind of stuck with us."

Mr. Beard leaves his wife, Debbie Meredith, and three children. ASSOCIATED PRESS

Elevated the persists in wildfire season

So far this year, 4,750 lives have burned 4.1 million hectares

IAN BAILEY OTTAWA

This year's wildfire season is shaping up to be the fourth worst on record in Canada, with above-average temperatures and continuing drought. A some regions of the country raising the risk of further devastation in the coming weeks, the federal government says.

GLOBE officials in British Columbia said that 10 percent black forestmen wildfire destroyed or damaged some air structures in the province's Okanagan region, three than 10,000 residents were evacuated when the field Range Districts (or, say, 1 in the district) were killed. The remaining 10,000 nearby Pacificland, prompting the declaration of potential state of emergency.

"We know we're still in the 1980s," the GLOBE nation said, that some communities face mildly difficult and sometimes uncertain conditions," federal Emer-

gency Management Minister Eleanor Stanowski told a critical hearing on Tuesday.

"Across the country, then, the wildfire situation remains serious.

While the wildfire season doesn't officially end until Oct. 15, this year is already on track to be among the country's worst, when increased against previous seasons at this point in August. Canada's most destructive wildfire season was 2012, with 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034, 2035,

Police find remains of third missing man on rural Ontario property

WOLLY RATTO

The Ontario Provincial Police are investigating after the remains of a missing man were discovered on a residential property in rural southwester Ontario, months at far the remains of two other men were found there.

Police interviewed 1,000 of the remains discovered on a property on Kelly Jordan Road in Montague, a tiny township property in Edmonton southwest of Ottawa, belong to Lawrence Bertens, who was reported missing almost four years ago.

We Bertens was as when he was last seen in September, area, in downtown Smiths Falls, just a few kilometers away.

The OPP said in a news release Tuesday that Mr Bertens's cause of death has not yet been determined, as Detective Inspector Joseph Farion stressed that their investigation "is far from complete."

The release said it was the third of 10 human remains to be found on the property.

Investigators found the first set of remains on the property that fall, while receiving a search warrant there on Oct. 15, the release said. These remains were found confirmed to be those of Robbie Krenzen, a Smiths Falls man whose family had reported him missing two years earlier, when he was as police said.

Three people - Christopher Fenton, Erin Mullin, and Joshua Bolton - have been charged with the three-figure murder of Mr Krenzen, a small private black Fenton, is charged with being an accessory after the last.

Last month, police discovered

a second set of remains on the property, which a postmortem examination identified as Robert Lambert, according to the OPP release. Mr Lambert had been reported missing in November, 2018.

Police previously said Mr Lambert moved to Ontario from the United States around 2014 to marry his family or Kathy.

"They had a good life in the Smiths Falls area, until Kathy passed away in 2007," OPP District Inspector Jorge Azoy said in a video posted by social media by the service on Aug. 1, says. "Robber was their alone, with no biological family. He was last seen in the summer of 2018, but was not reported missing until that fall."

Mr Lambert was 75 at the time, but, says Azoy said, and relied on care from personal support workers. He needed help to travel and required regular medication.

After Mr Lambert was reported missing, Oct. 10, a July 1, police were initially told that he had gone back to the U.S. - but there was no record of him leaving the country.

"He are confident someone has a crucial piece of information that will help the OPP determine what happened to Robert Lambert," he said in the video, announcing a function reward for any information leading to an acute and conviction in the case. A similar reward was also established for information on Mr. Robert's case.

Property records show Mr Lambert purchased 175 Kelly Jones Road in Montague Township, 2nd St.

Christopher Fenton was added to a 10-minute of that 10-year property in April, 2017 - months.

Mr Fenton's report did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

As with Mr Bertens, police said the cause of Mr Lambert's death has not yet been determined. On Tuesday evening, Mr Stare is wooded property remaining liquid off and granted by police.

Grifols lowers number of serious injuries, deaths at its centres since 2018

CHRIS KIRBHAY

Private plasma collector Grifols has strived past reports on dozens who had serious injuries or died, saying now there were six such incidents at the company's facilities, including three deaths in Winnipeg, since 2018 instead of 15.

Grifols says the company reviewed past reports issued to Health Canada and now believes some of the 15 incidents did not cause this definition of a "serious adverse reaction" as outlined in federal regulations.

Health Canada has accepted Grifols's revised reports.

The 15 recent series on Grifols temporarily passed its collection operations in the country starting on Aug. 14, because of multiple events Health Canada investigators have been reported.

Grifols, which is headquartered in Barcelona, operates 17 locations across six provinces that pay donors for their plasma, a protein-rich fluid found in blood that is used to make medicines, particularly for patients with immune disorders.

Grifols has received under scrutiny in recent months after two do-

even died in Winnipeg and after media reports that revealed the concerns of Health Canada inspectors, such as some Grifols staff not responding properly to alarms on disorders machines, or some donors with disease risk being inappropriately shared to do so.

Health Canada's guidance document on blood regulations in offers a "serious adverse reaction" arising an unexpected response to plasma and so that it is one or more of the following consequences: hospitalizations, a persistent or significant disability or incapacity (or a medical or surgical intervention) to prevent such a disability; radio-threatening conditions or a death risk.

Those regulations say the collector must advise Health Canada if it is done has such a reaction during or within 15 hours of the situation. The evidence is not gained to inform Health Canada within 15 hours of their visit to death, or within 15 calendar days of them to another serious response.

In June, Health Canada informed media, including the National Health Service, which has been informed of 27 serious adverse reactions in individuals from disease cases, such as at locations operated by Grifols

or its production or inspection, and two at locations operated by the Au-Qudher, the non-profit system that provides the government's blood products. Canadian blood services reported no serious adverse reactions during that time, the regulation on the

Grifols has been reported to contain two include: Promote Plasma Recessors, which for many years operated a single site in Winnipeg on Innovation Drive, and Canadian Plasma Recessors, which operated multiple sites across Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Grifols acquired the two companies in 2018 and 2019 respectively and opened five new sites in Ontario.

Health Canada said the revised report was a "serious adverse reaction" that after accounting for the revenues from Grifols and Home-Qudher. "For details of these reactions have been made public.

until now."

Grifols said its review of participants found that most were misclassified and did not mean the definition of a serious adverse reaction under the regulations.

The company said the correct number of such incidents was an error in the report. The report was made in 2018, an error in a Canadian Plasma Recessors facility in Saskatoon in 2017, one of a Canadian Plasma Recessors facility in Winnipeg on 2018 between 2018, another of the same facility in 2019, and another of the intervention from 2018 in Winnipeg in 2018.

Health Canada said the revised report was a "serious adverse reaction" that after accounting for the revenues from Grifols and Home-Qudher.

For details of these reactions have been made public.

Health Canada has previously said the 2018 incidents resulted in a

death, as did the incidents in Winnipeg in 2018 and 2019.

The donor who died in Winnipeg in 2018 was 10 years old one-vening student Rodney Malmely, the family provided to The Globe and Mailhouse shown that Mr. Malmely's donation may be a "serious adverse reaction" that is a serious cardiac problems, and shortly after that she was pronounced dead in a hospital.

Health Canada told media there was "no linkage" between Mr. Malmely's death and the donation activity in response to concurrent from family, about the investigation into Mr. Malmely's death, the regulation on and it is not a "serious adverse reaction" that is a serious cardiac problem.

Health Canada spokesperson Mark Johnson said no details of the reports were changed as a result of their "unclassification."

He said the reporting and classification of the 2018 increase the responsibility of the blood collector. He said Health Canada also looked over all of Grifols's reports, including those being misclassified, and that "we were deemed to warrant additional compliance measures or additional investigation."

RCNP bill for helicopters to patrol border set to top $50 million

One former military Black Hawk has been grounded since June because it lacks a special regulatory certificate

MARIE WOOLY OTTAWA

The RCNP's bill for chartering Black Hawk helicopters to pebble the U.S. Canada border to serve only the million, although one of the three aircraft has been grounded since June because it lacks a special regulatory certificate.

Figures provided by the RCNP to The Globe and Mail show that heenethrough work to the end of May, exist, the Mountaire paid $42.79 million to a private company to charter three Black Hawk helicopters.

The RCNP's military helicopters were leased at the start of last year to supplement nine helicopters already used by the RCNP to patrol the border.

From June 1 to Nov. 20 this year, the RCNP has budgeted about $1.5 million to fly each of the three Black Hawk helicopters, the three said in a statement. The chartering contracts, it said, were awarded to helicopter Transport Services, a private company based outside Ottawa.

But the Mountaire were required to ground one of the Black Hawks in June because the federal government of Transport said the former military aircraft lacked a required regulatory permit. The RCNP said it is not currently paying to lease the precincts.

Transport Canada, which is responsible for regulating civil aviation operations, said the Black Hawk is a military designed helicopter and as a result requires specific "airworthiness approval" before it can fly.

"The helicopter is operated does not hold a Special Certificate," said a special Certificate.

OTTAWA, a black or required to ship a type of former military aircraft to conduct commercial operations in Canada," Richard Aronzo, a department spokesperson, said in a statement. "As a result, it cannot be operated commercially in Canada of this time."

The U.S. military has used Black Hawk helicopters for decades, including in a search operation called this year in June for several U.S. army personnel in a Reuters report, two Black Hawk helicopters involved in the search were hit by Iranian fire but managed to escape from the country's airspace.

The reinforcement of Canada's border on January 1st year followed a threat by three president

shot Donald Trump to impose 10 per cent tariffs on all imports from Canada unless the country did more to stop drugs and illegal immigrants from being smuggled into the United States.

Canada responded by strengthening patrols, including the deployment of six additional drivers to help catch people crossing illegally. It also bolstered operations targeting illegal drugs, even though less than 1 per cent of tortured smuggled into the U.S. came from Canada, according to federal ministers who cited U.S. government figures.

The RCNP said it is currently operating two of the three helicopters to patrol the border.

"The third aircraft was voluntarily grounded following concerns caused by Transport Canada isolated to potential regulatory considerations, and discussions between the RCNP and Transport Canada on the fighting of RCNP operations in Total Northern said in a statement. 'There is currently no confirmed freedom for when the third Black Hawk will return to service.'

The Mountaire said the decision to ground the aircraft was not considered as valid or safety risk to RCNP officers.

The RCNP is responsible for patrolling the vast border apart from the regular crossing points, which are stalled by Canada Border Services Agency officers. In addition to airborne patrols, the RCNP canteens are patrolling vehicle and on foot, including targeting parts of the border known to be used by smugglers, as well as using surveillance equipment to detect the enemy.

The Black Hawks, which began operating on Jan. 17, 2015, unable to be RCNP to respond rapidly to threats and more officers of the between provinces.

The RCNP contracted Black Hawk helicopters based on operational requirements to enhance its ability to monitor and respond to activity along the Canada-U.S. border," Mr. Aronzo said. "They are used to patrolling the vast, identify potential threats and help stop illegal crossings, including the movement of people, drugs, and other contraband."

"The deployment of the Black Hawks helicopters will continue for as long as operational search require."

LGBT Forge survivors Michelle Douglas, executive director of the LGBT Forge Fund, and co-chair Todd Ross visit the Thunderhead monument in Ottawa on Tuesday. JONESY FRAZER THE GLOBE AND MAIL

Ottawa's national monument for LGBTQ community is set to sparkle on Friday

ON CHAIRMAN

"I ♥ very night, on the banks of the 'the Ottawa River,' and I ♥ was a school will give this a shock ball."

The cloud, reflecting the through thousands of removed tiles, is formed by the hedonous and spur-covered joint caddies. The sculpture is one part of a national monument, named Thunderhead, opening Friday in Ottawa. It is dedicated to recognizing the discrimination faced by LGBTQ Canadians, including a decade-long campaign to identify and live thousands of people from the public service, the Canadian Armed Forces and the RCNP for their sexual orientation.

A thunderkind is a store-chief, imagined to be a nightmare in following from the inside of a concert column, spackling as it breaks through. "We didn't enjoy the mood. We blew it up," said Marlon Roy, who was among those targeted by the federal government in what has become known as the LGBT Forge.

In 1985, Ms. Roy was arrested at 32 years old when she was working as a medical assistant in the Canadian Forces and subsequently dismissed from the military for being a lesbian. She was later one of three plaintiffs in a historic state-scrime settlement against the Canadian government. In 2005, which allocated more than $1.00 million to survivors of the national campaign of protection against LGBTQ members.

The LGBT Forge started in the 1990s and continued for four decades until 1998. From 1990 to 2005, in 1995, the United States was a major opposition to the system of information to help.

In part of the 20th-century settlement, $1.4 million was allocated to an organization called the LGBT Forge Fund with a mandate

to create a national monument and develop an exhibit for the Winnipeg-based Canadian. She wrote for Human Rights. The nonprofit is also approving the 2010-2015 national government and improving training related to LGBTQ inclusion in the federal government.

Now a co-chair on the board of the LGBT Forge Fund, Ms. Roy spent years as an advocate, on top up LGBTQ women's groups and hoarding from at Workस्थs, Inc., an organization that promotes inclusion in the workplace. In 2015, she was appointed to the Order of Canada for her advocacy for LGBTQ communities across Canada.

Michelle Douglas, executive director of the LGBT Forge Fund, was fired from the Forces in 1986 for being "an alluringly-ambassadorable force in the community." Three years later, she took the Forces to court for the 20th century. The lowest was settled, and the military removed the all-continuaries policy which allowed her for firing.

She said that monument reflects the journey of LGBTQ individuals who have been resident against oppression, from the time of information to today.

"It's really important for a community that has at times been raised or attempted to be erased," she said. "We are here, we have stood up, we have fought hard and here we are today."

Designed by the Winnipeg-based architecture firm Public City, the monument contains different elements for the public to use and live in the space, said far beyond, principal architect, a big firm. The central sculpture doubles as a stage, with lighting and a display have for seating.

Winding public take visitors to an orchard, a medicinal plant garden and a heating sink with a finger for ceremony, surrounded by seating made of Nianticlind

Tyndall Stone, a morbid limestone hill of heathred life. The design is designed with a glassware stone, collected from each province and received by indigenous men, indulgence and two-eyes of people.

Todd Ross, one of the plaintiffs in the class action settlement and co-chair of the LGBT Forge Fund, remembered walking up to the monument for the first time in June.

"There was a feeling of almost disbelief that something that we talked about, something that we dreamed about, so many years ago it was standing and with continue to stand for decades and hopefully continue beyond," he said.

For him, the monument is an apology to the LGBTQ community in an affected form. "It's a commitment to remember, and it's a commitment that we won't go backward, that we'll get to continue to move forward," he said.

Lieutenant Commander Terry Wright, law professor, led the Department of National Defence, said in an a medical statement that the department is working to make its workplace safer for all members, allowing them to serve uniformly, did not each their full potential.

The statement said the Forces and 1990 have implemented two communities from the LGBT Forge settlement, removed gender-specific requirements in dress-coat and increased support for LGBTQ employees through a public advisory organization and dedicated advocates.

Ms. Roy said she saw the different as to the Force's childhood when attending the Montreal pride paradox on Aug. 2. "We were about to form the order in walking together, and I think it's beautiful. And most of them are not from this community, they're allies," she said.

"We would not see that before."

Referendum: Premier urges social-media caution

FROM AL

Referencing the days from Ogilvie ad, Ms. Smith, said late Sunday that she had also been briefed by 1,000 and the RCNP, and that the apparent attempts to influence the Oct. 16 organization to be considered a concern.

"When we're seeing right now in that three years ago, our them that has elevated to a level of criminal involvement in our process. Now we are seeing influence campaign," the Premier said during an interview on OMGT television in Alberta.

"There [are] various doors of information online that appear to be amplified by different but fames that may have a little in focus, which is something that does have so much to do."

The research tracks suspected influence campaigns from Kansas and the United States involving Alberta. Former reports will also aim catalogue activity from China, Dr. McQuinn said.

The Russian activity, which comprises about 10 per cent of the million material the software flagged over one month this summer and that was on their later in December two months, a most covert in nature, while the American content - with influence, policemen and politicians openly promoting Alberta's reputation.

Though it is difficult to maximize the impact and material is having, Dr. McQuinn said the Russian activity has pushed a centuries that tell Albertans not to

treat how the referendum votes are counted, and that the province is being conventionally punished within Canada, leaving into provision the separation from being held. Among the last days, the emanating from U.S. RACE's white covers is that Canada is a third state, leaving the province no distance has to turn.

From the 1980s, said people the researchers found out different examples of who the RCNP has to be clear-cut attempts to shape or twist the Alberta debate, with the fault of the activity originating in Russia or through Russian federal policy.

The Alberta government previously tried to plan down concerns that the referendum was being targeted. When the researchers had raised concerns on a 1994 report - citing evidence of a vehicle claiming to be a homegrown, it is both a separate site that was instead found fault to a Russian state-sanctioned phenomenon in the Nuremberg - the province's most important problem.

Asked about it in the hapla-tion May 6, Alberta's Minister of History of Public Safety and Emergency Service Mike Ellis said the previous information about the RCNP there was no evidence of foreign interference in Alberta.

However, Ms. Ellis did not address suspected foreign influence.

Dr. McQuinn has noted the difference between foreign interference and foreign influence are significant.

Foreign interference, under Canadian law, is any covert or de-

ceptive action that poses a threat to citizens, including espionage, healing and attack on outbreaks, deby a cheap country in Australia, foreign influence is much more rational on what is involving propaganda or disinformation special online, or content that is designed to shift beliefs, sinks discord or change minds.

Though political debate and disagreement are the foundation of any democratic outside influence is a threat to what Dr. McQuinn calls "Canada's captive sovereignty."

Really good disinformation calls with something you said your head to, that's how you get people passing something on without even looking at what's au—build in it. "As said in an interview in May, adding that such campaigns are difficult to detect."

What can be done about such tactics after they are directed at even less clear, Ms. Smith called on Albertans to be vigilant about the disinformation that they are唤醒. Firing or spreading on their social-media foods, particularly if the government is unknown.

People just need to, before they believe everything they want to, social media, they need to check the source and verify to make sure that they're not sharing things and inadvertently amplifying a message that is being used to try to interfere in our own way." Ms. Smith said.

"I trust that Albertans are able to do that research. I trust that they can identify sources that are credible and sources that are not."

PQ: Party's support would rise if party dropped referendum pledge, poll shows

© FROM A1

'While the Parti Québécois is polling ahead after governing Coalition Annie Quebec and the opposition Liberals, public-opinion surveys consistently show support for sovereignty in Quebec is only around 35 per cent.'

'There is a broad consensus in Quebec that, after eight years of CAQ government, Quebec needs real change,' Mr. St-Pierre Flamondon wrote Tuesday. 'The vote must therefore focus first and foremost on this fundamental question. Who can we trust to put Quebec back on the right track?'

The Quebec election must take place for first.

In April, a large poll found that support for the PQ would jump eight points, from 35 per cent to 35 per cent, if the party abandoned its promise for a referendum in the next four years. But Mr. St-Pierre Flamondon, who has promised a referendum since he was elected leader of the party in 2020, has never looked down.

Education Ballare, chief insights officer for Leger, said in an interview that Mr. St-Pierre Flamondon has support from Quebecers who want a sovereignty vote and others who don't. The PQ Leader's statement showed him trying to manage both groups while addressing concerns about economic uncertainty that Mr. Trump has fomented.

Mr. Ballare said.

The PQ Leader may also be trying to distance his party from Alberta's upcoming vote on secession, which Mr. Ballare said could turn off Quebec election if the first 35 referendum in the Prairie province grows nearly contentious - particularly if Mr. Trump gets involved in the campaign. 'For the PQ, it's important to

try to disentangle the referendum from the current context,' Mr. Ballare said.

Mr. St-Pierre Flamondon's political opponents treat off on his Tuesday announcement, saying an independence referendum would be a reckless gambit even after Mr. Trump is out of office. Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette said in a statement that the

PQ Leader's statement was an admission that holding a referendum would be too risky for the province. She described his plan as 'irresponsible.'

'This morning, we're learning that the U.S. elections are dictating Paul St-Pierre Flamondon's agenda - this is ridiculous,' Mr. Fréchette wrote. 'The only certainty we have is

that Paul St-Pierre Flamondon will call on Quebecers to vote in a referendum during his first term - and he'll do so at the worst possible time for our economy.'

Charles Milland, leader of the Quebec Liberal Party, called for a 'return to the path of alliances.'

'He's right about one thing: it is risky that what's risky today will still be risky after Donald Trump,' Mr. Milland wrote in a statement.

In February, Mr. St-Pierre Flamondon conceded that some voters 'are genuinely afraid' of a referendum in the current geopolitical context, and suggested his government could want to hold a vote until after Mr. Trump leaves office.

The Parti Québécois will use intelligence and judgment in choosing the right moment for all decisions because our priority will always be to protect Quebecers,' he said at the time.

His statement Tuesday made that suggestion official. 'I have chosen to completely deface the argument that this would be the worst possible time to think about our future because of Trump. By ruling out the possibility of a referendum being held before the end of his second term,' he said.

'This will allow us to run a campaign focused on our proposals to help Quebecers and revitalize our future, rather than on repetitive and fruitless fear-mongering.'

MANITOBA HAS ADDED THOUSANDS OF HEALTH CARE WORKERS SINCE 2023; KINEW

MINNIGIC Manitoba Premier Walt Kinew says his government has added more than 4,000 new health care workers since taking office, but that demand for care is also rising.

The Premier said Tuesday during a news conference that while there is still much to be done to get wait times down and improve care, adding more health care workers is crucial.

'The first step, and the most important foundational piece,

will always be the staff,' he said, speaking at the Seven Oaks General Hospital in Winnipeg.

The added staff since 2023 includes about 3,000 health care aides, 1,400 nurses and 370 physicians.

The new recruits will help meet the rising need for services, Mr. Kinew said.

'Those who present at emergency departments and urgent care centers are getting ricker, and there are more folks, there

are bigger volumes,' he said. 'So we're trying to aim for a moving target.'

Groups representing both doctors and nurses welcomed the news of additional staff, but said more needs to be done.

Darlene Jackson, president of the Manitoba Nurses Union, said many nurses aren't seeing conditions improve on the front line.

'We continue to hear from nurses facing serious staffing shortages and unsustainable

workloads,' she said in a statement.

Dr. Alon Altman, president of Doctors Manitoba, said it's good news to use the doctor shortage getting better, but that work needs to be done on retention through efforts such as reducing paperwork and improving technology.

'Manitoba loses more physicians to other provinces than it gains, and too many of our own medical graduates move away to

practice,' he said in a statement. The Manitoba Association of Health Care Professionals, which represents allied health workers, said the province needs to develop a plan for all specialized professions.

Association president Jason Linklater said the province is still facing a shortage of technologists who administer diagnostic tests - a problem that is driving high-wat times. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Ukrainian ex-minister calls for elections

Mykhailo Fedorev says have faces a governance crisis in what appears to be an open challenge to Vokodymyr Zelensky

RAIL NUMBER

Ukraine's united defense minister Mykhailo Fedorev called for the mass霸权局 to be a boast choll address on Tuesday, arguing the nation found a cross of governance, in the biggest interest in the military in President Vokodymyr Zelensky since Russia's invasion.

Mr. Fedorev's call delivered in a video address posted on YouTube, a the first such demand by a major Ukrainian political figure since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in 2016. Chairman law prohibits holding

elections during wartime. 'Democracy cannot be held

tookay by Russia,' Mr. Fedorev said. 'No must find a legal, safe and realistic mechanism that will allow Ukraine to move its full subscription process even in the conditions of a long war.'

The 19-year-old Mr. Fedorev was a long-time ally of Mr. Zelensky's until his unexpected living from the Defense Ministry in being just six months after he had been appointed, voicing sweeping reforms.

Shortly after his dismissal, the 20th-century Mr. Fedorev publicly says: into the communist or fraud in the annual major, thousands foreshort, exposing a bitter rift between the men and their different visions for the war.

'Remaunch of Ukrainian war, in the streets to demand the asking of General Yurkin—an old-gated military commander, blamed by his critics for heavy

troop issues at the front line—and Mr. Fedorev's entertainment.'

Although Mr. Zelensky said he had dismissed Mr. Fedorev because of his inability to work with him. Yurkin, the President, tried the military chief shortly afterward under public pressure.

Pretoria in support of Mr. Fedorev have continued for the past month, losing some of their early momentum and still regularly drawing a couple thousand attenders in 1919.

While Mr. Fedorev did not say in his address that he would compete on any election, a recent poll indicated the ex-minister should comfortably lead Mr. Zelensky in a runoff vote, where the top two presidential candidates go head-to-head.

Mr. Fedorev's statement came just hours after Mr. Zelensky confirmed he had asked public merit to confirm new Defense Minister Yevheni Khmaza in

office on Wednesday.

In what expected to be an open challenge to Mr. Zelensky, Mr. Fedorev said Ukraine found a 'systemic crisis of governance.'

'The call system lives by its own rules, not about its process itself. It is scared of change,' he said.

Without providing names, Mr. Fedorev condemned official corruption, which he said hurt Ukraine's war effort.

Mr. Fedorev recently said he believed his reform of the Defense Ministry's procurement processes, responsible for purchasing billions of dollars or equipment, contributed to his seeking.

Mr. Zelensky's office had no immediate comment on Mr. Fedorev's address.

The youngest minister in Ukraine's history when he was appointed judge as an internal's digitalization chief, Mr. Fedorev

spent six years in that post. He was the last remaining member of Mr. Zelensky's first cabinet in 2016.

His role running the Ministry of Digital Transformation saw the boom of the 1920s, and the debate was over. In 1920, he turned a cordial to Ukraine on its head since 2020.

However, his nationwide profile grew greatly after his appointment to met the vast front of Ministry in January immediately voicing a data-driven eventual Online law production. Mr. Fedorev publicly laid out a strategy to defeat Russia's major system and technological superiority.

'Our people have long been ready for a different country,' Mr. Fedorev said in his address. 'Now, our state must become worthy of its people.'

Trader Talks about auto sector complicated by U.S.'s hope to also strike deal with Mexico

FRIDAY 43

Canadian negotiators have warned the U.S. that Ottawa will be forced to relocate if they do something the Trump administration has said it would not tolerate.

The negotiators were also trying to reach a difficult on tariff on an one, metals and heavy products imposed last year under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act. Two sources said the proposed agreement was being complicated by the fact that any di-aire sector must also align with a separate deal the White House is trying to make with Mexico because of how integrated the sector is.

The Tuesday afternoon a third source said Canadian negotiators were much more optimistic than they had been on Monday. The person cautioned that negotiations were continuing and returned instead.

The Globe is not identifying the sources because they were not authorized to discuss the sensitive negotiations publicly.

Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc remains in Washington with Canada's lead negotiator, James Churton.

Canadian Ambassador to the U.S. Mark Thurman was called back to Washington on Tuesday. He was supposed to be at an event at North Carolina's chandelier in comment on Canada's plan for last minute to return to the capital, the chamber said.

would see the U.S. lower - but not eliminate - some factions cut tariffs in exchange for concessions from Canada, including provisions sitting there U.S. dealers, bans and Ottawa dropping in countertariffs on autos. But the pressure have said they will only put U.S. dealers back on one shelves of meaningful charges and made to the existing tariffs.

One of the sources who spoke with The Globe on Tuesday said that, as of the meeting, the two sides remained far apart on the auto tariffs, with the U.S. leaflets firm to fix offer to cut the levy from 30 per cent to 30 per cent.

Sources have previously told The Globe that Canada had been pressing for a new one for North American auto content from the 30 per cent levy. If they secure that agreement, it would mean

the effective tariff rate is much lower than 30 per cent because it would apply only to a small portion of a vehicle.

Distraction about the auto sector are more difficult because the U.S. is looking to triangulate any tariff deal with Mexico City as well, and auto proposals on buying put to work Canadian and Mexican negotiating teams, the two different sources said.

Mexican Economy Secretary Marcello Dinasti, the country's point person for trade talks, was more leaving the United States Trade Representative's head-quarters in Washington on Tuesday evening, the羞涩est to comment on any closed-door talks.

Pedro Canes Almonte, CEO of the American Chamber of Commerce of Mexico, said the U.S. has also proposed a 30 per cent tariff

on autos to Mexico. He said the Mexican procurement would likely be willing to accept that level of sales are not the American vehicles and auto parts that meet the rules of the United States Mexico-Canada department.

He said such a deal would be a major step forward 'but it remained unclear whether the lowest rate would agree to it.'

For Canadian negotiators, another etiology point in the talks remained familiar. The issue is key for British Columbia said from 1920 that the trade talks won't put American boom back on shelves if the familiar tariffs are not lowered. In late July, he said doing otherwise would 'will not lower families for nothing'.

The Prime Minister has said he was 'signed to deal with the Republic about it firmly against more concessions in the White House. But the business community is hungry for more trade stability.'

He campaigned on an 'offence-up' response to the White House and told voters he would not let Mr. Trump 'speak in around' to October, the Prime Minister pledged to the House of Representatives for the 1920s. He said that the new Canada should have the stunt of the year by working against Mr. Trump's disruption to the world under and in April deserted Canada's reliance on the U.S. as a weakness, but by that he had shifted the fact and again, in a speech to New York, he proved and championed the notion that a stronger Canada would 'help make America great again'.

Flight attendants, pilots at highest risk of radiation-related cancers, study shows

WIRE STORMS NEW YORK

Flight attendants and pilots are at the highest risk of dying from irradiation-related cancers - even more than people who work with radioactive materials, according to a new study.

Cosmic radiation seems from space. Only a small amount reaches the Earth's surface, but exposure is greater for people flying at high altitudes.

There's been limited evidence from small studies suggesting that the exposure transition to higher cancer death rates among people who do other - particular factors and other factors - is a major cause of the study. "We study important new evidence to have on this question," two Australian radiators reports who weren't involved in the research work in an accompanying commentator.

The latter study published Monday by LMA's Internal Medicine, used national data from more than 10 million deaths/centuries that included information about occupational disease. The author looked at death rates from cancer that are high in radiation exposures, including leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma and cancers of the skin, breast, thyroid, prostate and central nervous system.

Among more than 100 occupations, flight attendants had the highest percentage of deaths

from radiation-related cancers, and pilots were second, the six most unreserved for those two occupations, the odds of dying were unusually high for each type of radiation-related cancer.

Neither group showed higher than normal death rates from cancers that aren't tied to radiation exposure, noted the commentator writes, Catherine Olson and Eva Karapidis. That fact "can't go to the hypothesis that occupational radiation exposure, rather than lifestyle, can cause cancer, is a major factor in the research".

The research has been held in flight attendants had about 30 per cent higher odds of dying from a radiation-related cancer than the general working population, and pilots had about 30 per cent higher odds.

In terms of absolute risk, about 0.5 per cent of flight attendant deaths were from those cancers. The study found that the population was 0.5 per cent. For the general working population, it was 1 per cent, said the study's first author, Dr. Vishal Patel of Harvard Medical School.

The authors acknowledged some limitations in their study. They do not know how much exposure each flight attendant and pilot got in the air or from other sources. Dr. also possible occupations were misclassified on some death certificates.

They also considered account for another possible contributor spe-

sible to the postmences. Cancer risk can be worsened by frequent disruption of the body's internal clock, which can be affected by 30 per cent of the death rates of dying. The authors also considered the authors' own

The Federal Aviation Administration has acknowledged that 30 per cent are exposed to ionizing radiation, but the government does not set federal dose limits or require monitoring, the authors noted.

"You can't manage an exposure factor divided not to measure," Dr. Patel said in an e-mail.

"The risk is known, but cross set not adequate or informed. And, no one is taking responsibility," said Mr. Fedorev, president of the National Center of Flight Attendants (NCA).

Dr. Olson and Dr. Karapidis wrote, Doctors who care for pilots and flight attendants also should have a "brightened habit of exposure" for cancer when evaluating these patients, they said.

CROWN APPEALS RAKE POSTVERSINIT MISTIVAL IN STRONACH SEXUAL-ASSAULT CASE

The Crown is appealing a rare post-versinit mistival declared last month in Frank Strouach's sexual assault conviction.

The billionaire businessman was found to apply to have of sexual assault and the historical officers of indictent assault related to separate allegations brought by two of the women in this Toronto trial.

The material on the sexual assault conviction was granted weeks later by Supreme Court Justice Anne Holbe, after 9 malls were presented in court from the woman's lawyer for a separate civil complaint.

Mr. Strouach's lawyer, Leona Shatwick, alleged those 9 malls held a story inconsistent with the woman's testimony in the criminal trial. Mr. Shatwick told The Canadian Press in July that the court did not hear from the woman before.

In a series of appeal filed Tuesday, the Crown argues justice. Wolfe's trial is relying on commentators who presented were subject to solicitor strict privilege without first determining whether there may be an outrageous to that privilege. The Crown also argues that the judge tried to satisfy the incident towards the credibility issues raised by the criminal application.

The Crown also argues the judge tried to satisfy the incident towards the credibility issues raised by the criminal application.

It is asking the Ontario Court of Appeal to restore the guilty verdict in the sexual assault charge and send the case back to Supreme Court for continuing.

Mr. Strouach said in a special Court case, he "secondly disappointed" that the Crown is challenging a 'highly disembarked order' by an experienced and corporate judge.

This appeal is a waste of precious court resources - considering the Crown can simply re-prosecute Mr. Strouach," she said.

"It's hard not [to] feel that this is more political than a legal question, to fact - it feels like a relentless 'witch hunt' that just won't end."

Mr. Strouach, who founded auto parts company Magna International, initially found a dozen charges stemming from the business between the United States and the existing seven complications. Mr. Strouach is set to be sentenced on the indictent assault conviction in September.

Ship hit in Strait of Hormuz; Iran says U.S. must meet its demands

Trump is opposed to parts of Oman's deal with Iran, officials say

SAWY MAGIR CAHID

U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to bomb Oman because he is unhappy the country is due to a deal with Iran's manage ship traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, two regional officials said Tuesday, a day after Mr. Trump levelled the threat.

The officials said the Trump administration has told Oman to be opposed to parts of the sea to be announced deal, including the joint Iranian and Oman management of the real route out of the passage that it critical to global logistics of oil and natural gas. The officials were invited to the U.S. position and how the administration views Oman's position.

Meanwhile, a projectile hit a ship as it sailed out of the strait, and a cargo vessel was rendered a 'constructive total loss' by multiple projectiles off the coast of Yemen, according to the British military's maritime monitoring agency. The Defense Ministry of the United Arab Emirates said two ballots in missiles were launched from Iran toward the UAE.

An Iranian official said the strait would not reopen until the United States meets Iran's conditions.

The U.S. believes Oman has not been tough enough in its negotiations with Iran and is unhappy with Oman's agreeance to take into account a loss from a radio, even if the change is an related to security and maritime environmental protection, according to the officials, who spoke on conditions of anonymity because they were not authorized to take in journalism.

Mr. Trump on Monday threatened to bomb Oman as it works with Iran on a deal to open the strait and pass the way for the U.S. and Iran to resume negotiations to end the war. He posted a map on social media Tuesday depicting the strait as a U.S. territory.

Iranian deputy foreign minister Kasım Gharibabadi appeared to respond to Mr. Trump's post on social media depicting the strait as American territory.

'Just as Trump correctly wrote the name of the annual Persian Gulf, the delusion regarding the Strait of Hormuz will soon either be corrected, or we will correct this deluded man's delusions his time,' Mr. Gharibabadi wrote on X.

Mr. Trump's comment on Monday was not the first time. In Iran threatened Oman. In Iraq, the Gulf reporters during a 24-hour meeting met Oman. Now, the Iran like everybody else, or we will have to blow them up.'

Iran estimated Tuesday that Tehran plans to maintain its grip on shipping traffic until Washington meets its conditions.

'Until the United States fulfills its commitments under the agreement, including lifting the blockade, releasing frozen assets, lifting oil contracts, ending threats and military operations on all fronts, and implementing the other conditions to which it committed, the Strait of Hormuz will not reopen,' said Mohammad Raghar Qalibad, Iran's parliamentary Speaker and negotiator in previous talks with the U.S.

The Egyptian Foreign Ministry said Tuesday that the Iranian-Omani deal could pass the way for Washington and Tehran to return to negotiations for a 'comprehensive and permanent deal that addresses all concerns and enhances regional security and stability.'

The statement came after a meeting between Egyptian Foreign Minister Nadir Abdelaziz and Omani counterpart Nadir al-Ramahi, that it did not address Mr. Trump's latest threat against Oman.

Mr. Trump said Tuesday the U.S. has no planned talks with Iran but insisted the strain is 'open and operating,' despite limited traffic, the reported heat strike and the end on Monday of the 10-day negotiating period between the countries.

Mr. Trump wrote on social media that a U.S. blockade of the strait remains 'to fall from and effect,' adding that all water mines have been removed.

At the talks between Iran and Oman continue, more attacks were reported in the region.

Both missiles fired at the UAE fell into the sea, the UAE Defense Ministry said. No damage or injuries were reported. Iran disputed the UAE's claim that it launched missiles toward the country.

The ministry later said assessments showed that the missiles targeted maritime traffic. It was not clear whether they did not see the UAE ships or the country's territorial waters.

In the works after the U.S. and Israel launched a war against Iran on 16th, at the UAE was frequently targeted by Iranian missiles and drones, but Tuesday's reported attack was the first in works.

An unidentified projectile hit a ship early Tuesday in the strait off the coast of Oman, damaging the engine room and causing the enemy, according to the U.S. Maritime Trade Operations system.

The monitoring agency did not release any details about the ship or its cargo, and it was unclear whether the crew member was killed or wounded. The agency said the Oman's crew Guard was assisting other crew members and that authorities were investigating.

Therefore, the cargo ship that was deemed a loss was struck about 1/3 kilometres southeast of Mukha, Yemen, the UNHCR center reported. The center did not identify the projectile or those responsible.

The Iran-aligned Health rebels resumed attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea in 16th and escalated attacks on Yemen's Saudi-backed government forces. The renewed assaults have threatened shipping through the Rab al-Mas'ah Strait, another key global trade route.

U.S. talks with Israel and Hamas end with no agreement on Trump's Gaza plan

ALEXANDER CONNELL

U.S. President Donald Trump's move and core-of-law Israel Kushner left Jerusalem to show day without a breakthrough after two days of talks with Israeli and Hamas leaders over a stalled U.S. plan in and the war in Gaza, with both sides standing firm on key demands.

Mr. Kushner met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel a day after meeting the political leader of Hamas in Egypt in 2018 to revive the plan. Israel has carried out air strikes and seized more territory in Gaza despite an October ceasefire, while Hamas has refused to give up its weapons.

Mr. Kushner described his nearly four-hour meeting with Mr. Netanyahu as 'good.' Mr. Kushner added that Hamas representatives said 'all the right things.'

'We could be seeing progress, you know in an little as to days, hopefully on starting to take some of the weapons out and hopefully, you know, filling in some of the tunnels as well as the next to to go days as well,' Mr. Kushner told Fox News, that foreign correspondent Tory Singer in an interview.

Mr. Trump last month announced that Hamas had agreed to lay down its arms on phases,

under a 10-point road map put forward by his so-called Board of Peace to advance his plan, as it can't military withdrawn from Gaza. Hamas said it agreed to the road map but implementation depends on Israel first meeting its own commitments including halting attacks and withdrawing.

Mr. Netanyahu, whose initial coalition is halting in opinion polls ahead of an October national election, rejected the deal this month, insisting that Israel would not pull back until Hamas is completely disarmed.

Mr. Kushner said the United States will not restrict Israel's right to defend itself if there are imminent threats. This point, Mr. Kushner said, has to be clarified to determine what that means.

'Every weapon, light and heavy, and every tunnel I said, is offended with Mr. Trump's Board of Peace, adding that Israel retained the right of self-defense and that Israel would be able to 'set accordingly' if Hamas 'tweets to Yemen. Science or attempts to rearm.'

However, the official said Mr. Netanyahu was told that Hamas has committed to fully shame and 'came immediately all military activity including tournament and tunnel digging.'

An Israeli official said Mr. Netanyahu was clear to the meeting that troops would not withdraw and shut the military would

continue to operate as it was necessary, including targeting Palestinian militants who took part in the fist. Y, yes, attack on Israel that triggered the war in Gaza.

Mr. Netanyahu and Mr. Kushner also agreed that Gaza's no-construction would not start until Hamas is disarmed, the Israeli official said.

'We're very committed to the fact that we have a plan to rebuild Gaza, but we will not allow Gaza to be rebuilt until the demobilization occurs,' Mr. Kushner said. 'Nobody wants to put more money into a place that's gone on for so long that's just going to be taken over by terrorism or blown up again.'

Hamas has demanded that Israel adhere to the ceasefire and withdraw its forces from Gaza. Both sides have disputed the sequencing of how Mr. Trump's plan should be implemented. More than 1,200 Palestinians and four Israeli soldiers have been killed in Gaza since last October, according to a public health officials and the Israeli military.

Mr. Netanyahu and Mr. Kushner also agreed to establish a working group covering disarmament and another on sanitation, clean water and other public health issues, the Prime Minister's office and the Board of Peace official said separately.

Where have all the Black cowboys gone?

JOY SPEARCHIEF-MORRIS PHOTOGRAPHY BY LEAH-MORRIS

At the Calgary Stampede in July, American calf-ropes John Desch came roaring out of the gates on his 10-year-old horse, a black gelding named Tomcat.

Surely any time elapsed as he voped the escaping calf and tied it up, before throwing his hands into the air 7.4 seconds.

It's one of the oldest skills in ranching. There is no room for mistakes. And Mr. Desch happens to be one of the fastest in the game. After qualifying five times in a row for the National Finals Bodies held annually in the United States, he is currently ranked sixth in the world, according to the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association.

"I love rodeo so much, and I love the history of it, so that's why I stuck with it," he said during an interview in Calgary.

The 10-year-old tie-down calf ropel from Huntsville, Tex., placed third in the Calgary Stampede's finals the past two years in a row, docking an impressive time of 6.6 seconds in 2023. At this year's Stampede, he placed second in his pool, earning $4,200 to advance to the finals, where he finished third again for an additional year of success.

Mr. Desch is a standout star on the rodeo scene, taking time in Calgary to pose for pressure with time and sign autographs. He's also one of only two Black cowboys, both American, who competed at the Stampede, among more than 300 competitors from across Canada, the U.S., Mexico and Australia.

To Mr. Desch, representation in a sport he loves so much is important for future generations to see. "[To] have the younger kids watch on and be like, 'He's African America,' I want to be like him when I grow up." (Book #1, pretty cool.) Mr. Desch said.

While all Black rodeos and associations have been on the rise in the U.S., similar opportunities are still lacking north of the border, making the appearance of Black cowboys, at Canadian rodeos a rarity.

Yet the Canadian Pearce have a long history of Black cowboys renowned for their skill in both ranching and rodeo. Many came to Canada from the U.S. during the high time of cowboys in the late 1900s, aiming to escape racism and prejudice and sharing the promise of a new life. Around the turn of the century, things began to change.

Where did all the Black cowboys go? Rodeo and agricultural exhibition co-isted in Alberta from it, beginning as a prompes was for cowboys to show off and test their skills at ranching and roping. When the province joined confeder-

ation in 1905, most settlers were white anglophores.

The Calgary Stampede as a festival was officially born in 1922. American Gay Studio's named to add an American-style frontier's Day to an existing Calgary agricultural exhibition, as well as a cowboy competition to celebrate "raud heritage and ranching in the west."

Rodeos as we know them today began at the turn of the 20th century as a decline in real-life cowboys gave way to home: steading and agriculture, said Calgary author, poet and scholar Bertrand Bickermith.

"What happens is now we want to sort of capture this nostalgia, this livelihood or this lifestyle that most people were not familiar with when the cowboys were actually out on the frontier by themselves," Mr. Bickermith said.

Born in Herts, Lonee and raised in Calgary, Mr. Bickermith has written about the history and experiences of Black settlers and cowboys in Alberta, and is working on a book about it Black cowboys, Mr. Bickermith said, were always part of rodeo.

"Certainly we know that even in the Calgary rodeos that there were Black people who were there, for sure. There's just not a clear record of their names or anything like this," he said, referring to historical records such as memoirs and newspaper articles.

One of those who competed in early exhibition rodeos before the races would go on to be one of the most famous cowboys in Canadian history. John Ware, the had a "muslim reputation" as one of the most skilled cowboys of the era, Mr. Bickermith said, "He gets credited for being one of the inspirations for the Calgary Stampede."

Born into endorsement in the U.S., Mr. Ware came to Alberta in 1882. After his emancipation, he became a successful number and cowboy in Texas. He came to Canada on a cattle drive that brought him through Montana and Idaho.

Chord Foggs, a Calgary community historian, author and playwright, is considered the expert in Mr. Ware's story. "He very quickly became a valued member of the ranching community as a cowboy as a hired hand on a number of our biggest ranchers," she said.

Mr. Ware established two successful ranchers, the first near Millerville, south of Calgary, where he lived for 12 years before moving his family east to Duchess near Brooks.

Mr. Ware and his wife, Mildred Lewis, lived there with their five children until both died in 1902. Despite only living in Duchess for three years, Mr. Foggs said the family left a "big footprint" in terms of their influence, particularly with their ap-

groaches to irrigation and cattle dipping. In 2022, Mr. Ware was officially recognized by the federal government as a national historic person. But both Mr. Foggs and Mr. Bickermith said it's important to remember that Mr. Ware was not the only Black cowboy to settle in Alberta. "If you really know the true story, it tells us that John Ware was here in community with others, that he was by no means the first or only Black person here, and that Black people were part of the fabric of these industries that we think of as the foundation of Alberta," Mr. Foggs said.

According to the most recent census data from 2021, 2.1 per cent of Alberta's self-identified as Black, making them the third-largest racialized group in the province. More than 20 per cent lived in urban areas, mainly Edmonton and Calgary.

Nearly two-thirds of Black Alberta were born outside of Canada and identified as first-generation Canadians, the census data show. Only about 5 per cent described their families as living in Canada for at least three generations.

Mr. Foggs herself is a descendant of Black settlers from the now-deserved Amber Valley, north of Edmonton, who migrated from the American south in the 1900s.

All Black communities like Amber Valley were essential in Alberta for Black immigrants facing the land of racism and prejudice they had tried to escape in the U.S.

"[Mr. Ware] know there was a lot of racism that he faced," Mr. Foggs said, adding

that while the cowboy's story is held up as a successful example of Black settlement in Canada, the racism he experienced means it can also be seen as a "cautionary tale."

The cowboy was ended to make way for homesteading, and with it came a change for Black settlers, Mr. Bickermith said.

"There was a pretty strong campaign against Black immigration," he said, citing a federal Order to Council issued in 1905 to prevent further Black settlement, stating the "race is deemed unsuitable to the climate and requirements of Canada."

The Edmonton Board of Trade made a similar resolution that same year, cautioning of the "disastrous influence on the welfare" of the province as a result of Black settlement.

"Essentially they created an atmosphere supported by the general public that prevented the mid-scale migration of Black people from the U.S.," Mr. Bickermith said.

Black families became increasingly isolated in the 1900s, he added. "I think that whoever was involved in ranching and cowbeying really now no longer has a very strong community base to connect to."

Mr. Bickermith said western literature was dominated by three novels featuring white protagonists. And later, as western movies became prominent, white actors such as John Wayne made it so that the history and presence of other Black cowboys was "coldpoof" in popular culture and how the public imagined the

the border, Black rodeo has a different story.

In 1954, La Varon launched an all-Black rodeo named after African-American cowboy Bill Pickett, to change the narrative of an 'all-white' cowboy culture. More than 40 years later, the Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo still celebrates and honours Black cowboys and comgels, touring across the U.S.

Black Rodeo USA has also created a network of rodeos for Black cowboys, expanding from an invitational Arizona Black Rodeo in 2015 to a full tour across nine cities this season.

In Canada, no formal all-Black rodeo or rodeo association exists to date.

Mr. Foggo said rodeo in Canada is similar to stories she was told as a girl about how Black people didn't belong in hockey.

'People have barriers around certain sports out of a dance to keep Black people out of them, and I believe rodeo is one of those,' she said.

'So many Black athletes in rodeo have pushed back, or have had their own rodeo and demonstrated that we have the skills to do those things.'

The Calgary Stampede is just one stop on John Dosch's journey to qualify for the National Finals Rodeo for a sixth time and earn his first gold buckle as a national champion.

'If you win a lot of money here, it'll help you in the world standards to get to the National Finals Rodeo, and the National Finals Rodeo is like the Super Bowl of football, but just rodeo,' he said.

Mr. Dosch has won more than 1,000, y-million in his professional career since 2010, surpassing 1,000,000,000 this season alone.

Just before the Stampede, Mr. Dosch and Tomcat rode to an arena scored in Basin City, Wash.

'I like to ride Tomcat on the fastest starts like this,' Mr. Dosch said.

He said he has about eight or nine more years of competing ahead of him. Then he plans to open up a rodeo school for 'anybody to be the best they could be.'

Mr. Dosch said he has been lucky to have the support of maroon, like eight-time world champion and Prokofiev ball of famer Joe Beaver, to help get him to where he is - opportunities he said aren't always guaranteed for other African-American cowboys.

'Growing up in the South, there's so many guys that rope good, or do everything and have been good. They just don't have the funds to get down the road,' Mr. Dosch said.

Visibility is key to ensure more Black cowboys get into the circuit, he added, maintaining cowboys he grew up watching, including ropers Bud Ford, Fred Whitfield and Sylvester Mayfield.

Mr. Mayfield's son Shad also competed at this year's Stampede, where he failed to qualify for finals after being the 2016 champion for tie-down roping.

'I was watching them on TV and I'd be like, I want to be like those guys when I grow up,' Mr. Dosch said.

'I want to follow the footsteps of them.'

A welcome evolution of Gladue

Last December, Canada's Supreme Court heard the most important sentencing case for Indigenous offenders in a quarter-century. A man who brutally beat his spouse was sentenced to nearly six years in prison, an appeal court reduced it to them.

Two imperatives, both recognized in federal law, applied: protection of vulnerable Indigenous women, and special consideration of the disadvantaged backgrounds of Indigenous offenders. To simplify, the case pitted deterrence against mercy. It's been sight months now, and the court still hasn't ruled, which suggests the justices are struggling to find the right balance.

If they need inspiration, they might look to a Nunavut judge, Justice Mark Moosey. He faced similar questions in an abuse case he ruled on in late April complicating matters for him, the prosecution and defense made a joint recommendation, stressing leniency for the offender. Such recommendations are not easily pushed aside. Yet Justice Moosey did just that. He more than tripled the recommended sentence. He drove to stress deterrence.

Why? Because Darren Amick of Sgabat assaulted his spouse four times over several months, and violated court orders to stay away from her eight times. In one instance, he was charged with assaulting her and released on condition he stay away from her. He cheered up at her door the very next day. (That landed him in jail.)

His spouse, in her victim impact statement, said she feared being murdered in her home. That there are five children to think about. They have been terribly harmed by the violence against their mother. 'Enough is enough,' Justice Moosey wrote, quoting the victim's impact statement.

He sentenced Mr. Amick to just short of two years in jail, which includes time for resetting arrest and violating a court order. The Crown, representing the people of Canada (the federal prosecution service in Nunavut), had agreed with the defense that seven months in jail was a just punishment.

It's important to understand the legal framework for sentencing in such cases. Thirty years ago, Ottawa rewrote the Criminal Code's sentencing provisions to stress that whole jail should be a last resort for all offenders, judges must pay particular attention to the circumstances of Indigenous cases.

In 1999, the Supreme Court was asked to say what that meant for a manslaughter case in which a female assailant, latter Tatra Gladue, supported her spouse of infidelity and stabbed him to death, for which she was sentenced to three years. The Supreme Court said Parliament intended judges to do something about the overrepresentation of Indigenous peoples in custody, and to look at the unique circumstances of this population. (These houses known as the Gladue principles. (The court upheld the three-year sentence.)

But at 1992, Ottawa introduced a countervailing consideration in about cases involving vulnerable victims, including those who are 'Absolutely and female'. In such cases, the sentencing law says, deterrence is to come first. This provision was written after a federal inquiry into missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls said current sentencing practices were not making consideration safer.

Justice Moosey also had to contend with the joint sentencing recommendation. Even if he found it 'demonstrably unfit,' he would be bound by it. Only if it were contrary to the public interest, so 'unbiased' (as the Supreme Court once put it) from the circumstances of the case that reasonable and informed members of the public would think the justice system had broken down could be those it cut.

Justice Moosey found it unbiased. He cited the dissenting judge from the abuse case before the Supreme Court on the need that women in isolated communities have for protection. 'The victims have no place to run, no place to hide.' Seven months would leave the victim dreading the moment. Mr. Amick is freed.

The violence in the case at the Supreme Court was even more severe, including as punches and at least one hole to the head. There were also repeated violations of court orders that two of the three New Scotia Court of Appeal judges who heard the case of Harry Cope said the trial judge hadn't grasped the connection between Mr. Cope's addiction and serious mental illness and his Indigenous background.

Justice Moosey's ruling points the way toward a welcome evolution of the Gladue principles in chronic abuse cases. The Supreme Court should follow his lead.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

FOLLOW THE LEADER

Re 'Will Canadians' deference to Mark Carney survive this trade war?' (Aug. 10). (A replace 'deterrence to' with 'confidence in' Mark Carney.)

My impression is that most Canadians are confident he and his team will land the best trade deal possible under the circumstances, which are有关规定, enigmatics and constantly shifting. Most of us seem ready to accept some competition, such as negotiation, but the deal should be reasonable and fair, which is the most we should expect.

Everyone needs to put a little water in their wine. © Joyce Rowlands Toronto

Do people think the Prime Minister is in the negotiating room making decisions? Are there examples of decisions to would make differences from, say, home, Tradcau or Stephen Harper?

Negotiations are done by professional negotiators. We should give credit to the people doing the work.

Final decisions on what may be a sacred one are done by politicians, and we will ensure it (or more likely, part of it) if low. Regardless of who is prime minister, I hope they would make decisions in the best interest of Canada.

Mark Carney does not deserve leadership credit nor blame - he has been dealt the worst cards. He should be criticized for running a campaign on women, them into a good head. It is clear to me that has not happened. © Jason Shaw

POINTS OF VIEW

Re 'An appealing case for judicial restraint' (Editorial, Aug. 17). An an and cyclist, retired lawyer and retired mayor, I see the Ontario Court of Appeal decision on bike lanes-from multiple perspectives.

As a lawyer, I agree with the decision. The court's role is not to make policy but to ensure governments act legally and constitutionally.

As a cyclist, I know that cycling lanes are an essential part of transportation. Information that make our roads safer for cyclists, politicians and investors.

As a municipal clinician, I am concerned about provincial overreach. Municipalities should be free to regulate their own streets, home municipalities, supposition lanes, others do not. That's real democracy.

I'm all for judicial restraint but I'm also for provincial restraint. Let municipalities take care of municipal issues.

A LITTLE HELP

Re 'Elections Alberta seeks help from other provinces to run fall referendum' (Aug. 18). How ironic that Alberta can't run a referendum on separating from the rest of Canada without help from - text for it - the rest of Canada.

Make one wonder what else an Alberta republic would find and unable to do on its own. © Frank Burgess Edmonton

Many of the referendum questions invite Alberta to remove provincial services to immigrants. To do so, the government is open to hiring immigrants to staff the referendum process.

Generally, this referendum is far different from recruiting election workers from other provinces in one an election. Elections choose governments, this process invites Alberta to separate from the provinces where these workers are from.

THINK OF THE CHILDREN

Re 'Trumpy Shatters on undermining vaccination harms kids' (Aug. 14). This makes all the correct observations and what-ish to the U.S. plan to doand, and after established vaccination protocols that have protected children for decades. However, none of this seems the point.

I think Donald Trump and his circle simply seek to undermine any authority outside the White House, science, data and laws must be subservient to the state, and children will be collateral damage. When the American public are trained to this state, and - if former chief medical advisor Anthony Raux is asked, - he example - then the effort will be completed.

© Greg Donohue Inverness, Ont.

In irony of Donald Trump undermining vaccines is that it contradicts what I believe history will judge as one of his greatest legacies.

During Mr. Trump's first term in office, he poured extra money into research to find a safe, effective COVID-19 vaccine through Operation Sharp Speed.

As a result, a number of vaccines became available in record time and saved countries look not only in the United States, but eventually around the world.

If Mr. Trump got a chance to use his obituary in advance, I wonder what he would say about accidents for this subservient.

© Ed Darden

Qualcomm Beach, B.C.

Setting logic aside for a moment, may I suggest, as someone in his 80s, that there are now multiple generations who have no experience of a largely vaccine-free world.

In my case, and this would not be unusual for my generation, I have known someone with lifetime disabilities as a result of diphtheria (my mother), someone with mental health problems owing to measles (an uncle) and friends and work colleagues scared by misfights or handicapped or harsh injuries by polio. I guarantee anyone who has seen and heard a child with whooping cough, as I have, will not forget it.

I am only conclude that the anti-vaccine cohort are happier following some mental religious logic.

ON CENTER DYPTHORIA

Re 'The debate over puberty blockers needs more science and less political' (Editorial, Aug. 16). Health Canada should revise recommended treatment for gender dysphoria as has been done in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Britain, Australia, and some US states after discovering harms caused by puberty blockers and finding original studies to be inadequate.

Ever questions were raised about what would happen if blockers were discontinued. Parents were assured they were reversible, but evidence shows hormonal damage occurring in many cases. Some young persons suffer from mental growth in their sexual organs, some became permanently infertile.

I believe a great harm has been the repudiation of past evidence that, if given counseling and no hormonal intervention, a majority of older teenagers 'return' to the gender indicated in their 30's, and chromosomes. If there is hormonal intervention, returning becomes more difficult.

Health Canada should ban interventions unhappiness by data. Concentrate on providing gender dysphoric minors with evidence-based treatments and the good of these young people will follow.

Black tokenism claims a life

The tragic case of Jason Friday shows making a person into a symbol takes an emotional toll

NATHAN ANDREWS

OPINION

Associate professor of international studies at McMullen University and a member of the Royal Society of Canada College of New Orleans

Jason Friday, the former Cambridge professor of sociology of education, died on Friday. Two sons, another Black Bat Son from York, Cambridge, were the example of an entertained change is no more. It buys his family and loved ones can find some peace in this challenging time.

I agree that academic integrity should not be played above many occasions until 1985, even the arguments about the alleged plaga-

tion and misrepresented achievements to those who know more about the case itself. I write here, instead, to reflect on the broader problems within the academy that this case reflects, that being the 'family only' or historic first in academia comes with the upside of lama and power, and the downside of disproportionate scrutiny and that such can take an emotional toll. When I first heard that Dr. Arday, first 17, had been appointed Cambridge's youngest Black professor in 2012 - and just the sixth Black professor working at the university at the time he did not think it was something the school should have boasted about. So, it was a major milestone for Dr. Arday that for Cambridge, such a flat was being overdue and, if anything, it reduced (and still a feast); the way that prominent witnesses and systemic barriers have prevented other young Black scholars from being offered similar problems. Today, there years after his high-profile appointment, only about 100 years of professors in Britain are Black. Celebrating isolated cases of

Black excellence without meaningful institutional transformations is hardly worth celebrating. Dr. Arday's case also shows how Black lives in academia can be viewed as disposable the moment they're happy serve the institution. As a Black professor myself, this case has provided a few questions with a troubling lack of clear answers. What happens if he learned to be no longer of age? Would my university support me if I ever became a subject of misuse inside and public scrutiny? Would the university turn out what's not gone? The dependability of Black lives is justly a function of how what stress dominates academia, that from decades of thinking and writing about race, from Frantic fiasco's Black (this White Made to Frantic Blackman's) law has flared; we know that knowledge is power, and that racism is often unknown who is moved as a legitimate contributor to knowledge. In this context, Dr. Arday's prestigious position on Cambridge appeared to have been a bigger hit those who could not believe someone like him

could qualify for that role - that is, someone who originated from a community not expected to think, create, write, know enough or, simply, be surprised. But there are other uncomfortably questions this has raised. If Dr. Arday had been white, would he have faced the same degree of male bullying, academic backlash, and public scrutiny? Would the university's response have been different? Ultimately, we cannot know, but it does appear that some lives matter more in academia. The stalk of symptoms of the underrepresentation of Black people in academia. We will, in half, be able to get up to the age of 60, and give us the usual collegial tool, but we don't have the privilege of simply assuming that all our peers believe we have earned one of the best. As a case in White May previous mediocrine academics in very reproducible positions, the Black academic often does not feel we can simply be average for us. It can feel like the weight of a whole village even on our shoulders, so like we can do it with extra hurdles, disrupt pre-existing stereotypes,

societal expectations, and myths about Black people's intellectual expertise. This is how a young Black academic is a continual wide institution can be pushed into a constant and difficult state of overdrive. Indeed, in the Hidden Figures pooled series that I co-host, many Black members of faculty in Canada have shared that they have felt unavoidable, and yet under-resourced and unappreciated. The murder of being the 'first' a part of the strain of that labour, which can lead to what I call Black excellence fatigue. Instead of probing every accomplishment of Black profession in academia, we are entitled to be a good partner of unmarried 'Hill times'. Dr. Arday's tragic death should make an effect on the failures of tolerance, the desire of the concept of Black excellence, a diverse academic in need of a broader reckoning in that Black people can thrive, instead of needing to work twice as hard. And solving the problem will require overcoming formidable tensions, institution at least, in many families, rather than a token effort.

There's no right to bike lanes, but a right to fundamental justice

ANDREW COYNE

OPINION

When an Ontario judge has year ruled a provincial law ordering the removal of bicycle lanes from three. Number means was a violation of the Charter of Rights, conservative threw a tantrum on a scale one even for them. A constitutional right to bike lanes' hastily this was proof that the courts in this country had gone crazy, from the notwithstanding clause could care us now.

But now the courts ruling has been overturned by the Ontario Court of Appeal, and conservative have turned on it as a "googling" to the reneging generalisation about the judging should be avoided! Evidence that governments have other options besides the notwithstanding clauses? So, just more proof that they had been right all along after all, a judge said we.

"There's just no problem with this. The lower court ruling more said what conservatives, including the conservative judge who wrote the appeal court decision, said it did. So, but Justice had hobbies went out of his way to stress that he ruling was not based on a right to bike lanes."

The applicants in the case were not assuming any such thing, he noted. "There is no assertion that the government has a positive obligation to provide something. There is no demand for new bike lanes."

Indeed, the government was free to order the distinction of existing bike lanes, even knowing the would put this safety of cyclists using those lanes at risk - that it would fill some, in fact - provided it did not reduce the

THE CHAIRMAN PRESS

The state was not assuming any such thing, he noted. "There is no assertion that the government has a positive obligation to provide something. There is no demand for new bike lanes."

Charter in so doing.

Ripping out the bike lanes was not a violation in itself. Not to do so, as the government proposed, not only to the face of violence, that it would deprive cyclists of the right to 'like, liberty and security of the person' guaranteed by the Charter's Section 2, but in the absence of any evidence that it would even achieve its stated goal - reducing congestion - was at odds with the requirement of proportionality between means and ends that is at the heart of virtually all Charter appropriations. Indeed, the judge ruled, it was 'goodly disproportionate,' and as such a violation of the principle of 'fundamental justice.'

Now, it is possible to poledy be in the judge's reasoning that the author of the appeal court ruling, a Stephen Harper

apposition, spends rather less time doing so and rather more on a long lecture on the path of judicial activism in general, that of ongoing dissent (not helping) to be quoted.

"Judges may suppose that they have much to offer to public policy debate," Justice Grant Hancock writes. "But the interpretation must be studied. If a not just that courts have no expertise in policy making, it is a higher ratio for courts to involve themselves in matters of legal/law policy. Policy is for politics."

No disagreement there. But what about the lower court judge's actual arguments, as opposed to the phantom man, is about the appeal court to refresh?

Against Section 2 includes a pro-institution that he was not creating any positive rights, Justice Hancock replies, in effect, oh yes

he is. "If the Charter prevents the government from removing the bike lanes," he writes. "More must logically have been a constitutional right to the protection supplied by those lanes in the first place."

Indeed, he goes further: "So long as the earlier legislation was not constitutionally required, the courts would have to be necessary." Charter complaint." (Emphasis added.)

Is it? So long as you're undoing a law that was 'one constitutionally required, and the other matter how you go ahead' of. Anything good' be of the best law replaced. Depcite lanes with, say, proper cities, no Charter means would possibly arise.

Before Hancock' baffle that cyclists don't have to use the roads that put them at risk. That's not the point. The power is that in going about a lawful activity, people should not have their lives needlessly imperilled by the government. I emphasize: need keep.

So one is saying 'Bicycle lanes exist as far now, therefore they must always exist.' The law in question did not merely signal a lawful activity, but it was a benefit. It ordered specific alterations to specific interim. That is a new act of government, separate and explicit, and as such subject, the Charter was just how the bike lanes got there - whether by a previous law, a banishment prevails do not, or act of God - is irrelevant. All that matters to law is that they are the status quo, which the government proposes to change.

So say that any such action must conform with the Charter is not to imply, as Justice Hancock claims, that a legislature may bind future legislatures. It is to say that both are bound by the Constitution. As they should be

Why is Chris Alexander running for mayor of Toronto?

ROBYN SPEARS

OPINION

Chris Alexander is either running for strategic campaign for mayor that the City of Toronto has seen in some time, or is actually making a switch. And for a very different job, he for Toronto's past launches.

On Monday, Mr. Alexander posted on 'E.' A bed in for the worst night of one life. A home in the city of E. My job as mayor is both.' He can mite that the statement is some new form of Friday, because it makes no sense to political communications. (b) Mr. Alexander's new plan of command—the 'proud shelter project' He doesn't believe. Will be up up seeing regulations? Nothing on that—after Friday's he will replicate in (and/or permanent)?

A few days earlier, he posted that 'the first of the most clear egints.' It needs cannot leadership'—an important distinction, apparently, from leadership that

is, uh, not earned! Referring to municipal power seized by violent revolutionist Unclear Ev's need to ask (had) if? to try again when it gets out phrases like these.

Mr. Alexander continued, perhaps in an effort to clarify: 'The votes of Torontoans are not a basis for appropriate strategies, acting behind closed doors somewhere - you have to earn them. That means arriving with a sense of urgency, a program and a plan.'

Unfortunately, Mr. Alexander's business and his belief in mayor of Toronto late last month, has not arrived with any of these things. The campaign website for the former Canadian ambassador on the business and his fact now activities remains of citizenship and immigration is worth from this campaign into five main priorities that are entirely noncyclic. For example, number has which is to 'throughout finally, the most clear aspects of job' to work of banal doctors including about how 'political and damaged infrastructure must be

tired, not ignored.'

At the time of writing, the 'Contact' and 'Media' pages on his website are broken. At the top—a endorsement—the Harper's student wants him. Both have been a better head-braffled who is the main challenges to incandent. Major Office Cheri, his law pro-winner, has an opportunity to write, cultural festivals or community music-and-goons, with the exception of one strange voice on his biological that down him taking a selfie with two men in Chardonnay's common of all.

The most serious aspect of Mr. Alexander's campaign for mayor is his focus on matters of foreign policy. Candidates running on second office typically assess district message discipline, and the Toronto municipal election, that would mean living and breathing Toronto, and making his case at any and every opportunity for why Torontoans are not a basis for mayor. But instead, Mr. Alexander's view of the fact that all the bad, about NATO, and about Russian aggression, and their

sian aggression, and their attempting to make weak connections when called out. 'Failure to differ is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of a better way, and it is a bad thing in the way of

He also admits 'Foreign homelessness crisis - a failure or contentions,' and said, 'You moved women like this before, on a hand, at the calmer table. We will connect them here.'

What does that mean in practice? (b) He says:

Mr. Alexander says he wants to become mayor because 'Toronto has been standing still for three years,' and unhealthy, he wants to get things out of the gym, but he has not provided anything close to a plan for how he will do that, nor has he articulated why he should be considered the next to change. Polling university has his support at present to pay anti-communist campaign pressure. But Mr. Bradford, who has actually served on Toronto, says Council and who, importantly,

appears to be running a real campaign with specific policy proposals. Mr. Cheri's support is committed at 12 per cent, which means that Mr. McClellan is a campaign just enough of the 'change' vote to be a quality for Mr. Bradford, thus condemning Toronto, in Mr. Alexander's words, to four more years of support.

So with, then, is he running for mayor? The real reason, I mean, not because the city is 'adult,' as he told the Toronto that 2nd Mr. Bradford can vote for, or and this is Mr. Alexander's way of reaching through the first of the 1970s. Cheri's dancing, and warm to success of it! In it because he wants Toronto to be the first municipal city to secure 1970's membership? The first mayor because he wants to show off more of his poetry. (Re-film)

If speeches held bads, Toronto would have a surprise. To sovert in the room. You had the votes. Where are the bads? Where are the homes?

Please snap.

The Tuscan seaside town beloved by Italy’s upper class

Set amid the marbled Apsan Alps, Forte dei Marmi is where movers and shakers ditch their Ferraris for bicycles

BARBARA BALFOUR

I'm sorry." Before we've re-evoked Lunch, Salvatore Madonna has spirited something I com- pically mixed.

An emerald, a band across the crop white tablecloth beside Hotel Byron's pool, studying the slightest indentation in the linen before quietly suggesting another table.

It's an almost imperceptible grotest, but one that tells me everything I need to know about the as Forte dei Marmi.

In the Tuscan seaside town, where generations of artists, liter- ary guests and celebrities have come to escape the spotlight, has- set up-die-crafts.

Mr. Madonna is the owner of Hotel Byron, a boutique hotel set inside a graceful with high in size as the summer home of an Italian middle family. Named after the Da- glish poet Lord Byron, who tra- ribal through this corner of Tus- cany in the early 19th century, the property has been in the Malone- las family since 1920.

Over plains of freshly caught seafood, he explains why genera- tions of Italy's wealthiest families have returned here every sum- ner.

"People arrive with their Fern- ons. 'I'm sure. 'They path their car, put on doors and a T-shirt, get on bicycles and go around the town. They don't need to show off."

Then he smiles. "I was brought here by my father. I brought my children have. Probably they will bring their children, too."

Unlike Capri, Portofino or the Amidit Court, where overtruthmin- has transformed summer into spectacle, Forte dei Marmi remains remarkably Italian and largely unknown to North Ameri- tains.

The Agnelli family, founders of the flat automotive engine, spent their summers here, along with late fashion designer Giorgio Armani, tenor Andrea Bocelli and public figures who prize discre- tion over display.

Forte dei Marmi takes its name from the Forensic, an 18th-century famous built to both defend the coast and support Tuscany's flourishing marble trade.

For centuries, enormous fluvils of marble were dragged down from the Apsan Alps and gathered beside the secheters be- ginning their journey across Ta- vope. The town's plot, completed

Italiano travel from across Tuscany to howwe stalls piled high with dis- counted cashmere, embroidered linens, handmade leather sam- dah, ceramics and vintage tre- sures.

By afternoon, life shifts toward the sea, Elegant beach clubs stretch along the shoreline, from glamorous sailors charging hundreds of turns for a private ca-

Or simply cycle so minutes week along the waterfront prom- anda to Spangola Libera Le Dune, one of Forte dei Marmi's first pub- lic beaches, where locals spread sowels beside the sea without spending a euro. Either way, the backdrop in the same, the Tyrthe- man Sea on one side and the im- possible to ignore Apsan Alps on the other.

Thanks to be sculptivously free- central structure, marble from the Tuscan town of Carcara allowed sculpions to carve delicate fingers, flowing drapery and expressive faces without the stone fractur- ing. Today, it remains one of the world's most prized building ma- torals.

The best part is Carcara is only almost 25 minutes away from Forte dei Marmi. Soon after lear- ing the bucks, I'm nothing in the mountains in a four-by-four on a €25 gasked tour of the quarters. Visitors can also choose rugged jeep salami that venture deeper into the mountains or gasked hikes led by geologists.

Nearly 200 quarries are scat- tored across these mountains. Most of the range is now protect- ed within the Apsan Alps Regional Park, part of the UNESCO Global Geoparkis Net- work, leaving only a small portion available for marble extraction.

Here I learn that modern quar- rying is remarkably precise. Instead of blasting the mountain apart, workers use steel cables embedded with industrial

diamonds to slice through the stone. Yet every cut remains a gamble. hidden fractures stay insoluble until a block finally breaks low.

Almost nothing goes to waste. Everlovolum marble is crushed in- to calcium carbonate and mey- cled into everything from tooth- paint and cosmetics to paint and paper.

A few kilometres farther has Colorinata, where marble shapes the local cuisine as well as the landscape.

Quarrymen once survived on bread and brick in Colorinata, who earned the world's most brand- carved marble vats. Today that humble lunch carries Provincial Geographical Indication status and is considered one of Tusca- ny's prized delicacies.

It's already evening when I arrive for dinner in Parinonata, a medieval town only seven min- utes away from the centre of Forte dei Marmi. Known as Little Jeb- ron, the town has become a cor- ter of marble sculpture, donating artists from every continent.

In streets feel like an open-air museum. Monumental scalp- ners run beside ancient chand- rs, while Ireland models work shop doors, hammers still ring against marble as they have for generations.

In doubt settle over the plains, marble dust cut has the last of the light before drifting softly into the evening air.

Only a few hours earlier, I had watched those same mountains surrender another flawless block of stone. Here, I watch someone begin the slow work of setting line the sculpture within.

IT YOU GO

The closest airport to Forte dei Marmi is Pisa International Air- port, a 40-minute drive away. Alternatively, fly into Florence Airport, about a 40-minute drive. If arriving by train, the seaside town is about three hours from Rome or about two hours from Florence. The Forte dei Marmi- Severenza-Quaranta rail-station is down from Minnesota from the town centre.

Once on Forte dei Marmi, most visitors get around by bicycle Rental bikes are widely available and the town's flat terrain and dedicated cycling paths make them the easiest way to explore. Guided excavations or a rental car are the best way to visit nearby Carcara, Pettolumia and the Vorolla coast.

Toronto's Factory Theatre names Kevin Matthew Wong as new artistic director

AIGLIINE MURPHY

Kevin Matthew Wong best known for his work with Why Not Theatre, is Facto- ry's newest artistic direc- tor.

Wong whose roles at Why Not most recently included executive producer and artistic associate, will additionally serve as Facto- ry's interim managing director,

the company said. His first day was Aug. 11.

Factory has faced significant challenges in recent years.

Former artistic director Mel Hagan resigned at the end of 1995 and former managing director Mark Johnson left soon after.

His replacement will be introduced by the end of this year, Wong said.

Factory was originally found-

ed in 1995 by Ken Gass and Frank Frost, as the first company to produce only Canadian plays. Since 1920, it has offered pro- gramming on a much smaller scale than before the pandemic. In addition, Wong said the theatre is an 'uncorrected status' with the Canada Council for the Arts, a label applied to companies whose organizational health is 'unstable.'

According to Wong, Factory

has also had a portion of its municipal funding cut, and the company's loss is making over the past three years is on track to reach 10 per cent, inclusive of 2020.

Factory's 10-year-old build- ing, too, is in need of informi- ture in years and post control of beta.

'This is what I'm inheriting,' Wong said. 'But I'm unafraid. The more I learn about these

challenges, the more I see that there's space to grow - and that there are strong signs about where and how we should move.'

In a press release, search com- motive that McGaulty called Wong an artist and leader of 'the highest caliber,' adding that he was chosen from a pool of its applicants from across Can- ada.

THE GUIDE AND MAN

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18, 2024

ILLUSTRATION BY HARLEY ALLEN ADH

My homeland is a big part of me

FIRST PERSON

As an Azerbaijani expat in Canada, I get a lot of questions about a country many people don't know exists, Sevda Azizli writes

There's this funny face people make when I tell them where I've been that about make me laugh. It's almost a glitch. They hear the name of a country they usually aren't aware or not, followed by a brief moment of shame that might have something to do with me, harassment on behalf of their geographical education. I never judge, of course, geography was never my strong suit, either.

Recently, I've noticed - since living in Vancouver, I'm in pain - people have been recognizing it more and more. Others, it's the formula that time, eagerly recognizing the name of a popular (perhaps ever) that lawsuits my circuit. And every new and then I get the occasional history suit who proceeds to give me a dissertation on the significance of our oil industry in the Second World War (as if I hadn't heard all this and more from my mother, alive in history not).

My lawsuits are the one who know us from our sports teams - who recognize the names of our radio gold-mudabies in the Olympics or that we found a UPC mark in the summer of 2021 (NBC's downtime). But the Raba Crystal Hall. Or who know that Qandary, I'll be made it surprisingly far in the USA's Champions League. Something about recognizing us for our athletic merit has always stoked a patriotic flame within me.

It really is a name that sticks. It's something people tend to remember after hearing it for the first time, it only the girl of it. That it starts with an 'X' and ends with 'n'

and has a weird combination of letters you wouldn't expect in between. My last touch of the Dance Co it ends when I wasn't had a mentonous driver, she liked to see - it sounded like she'd released a line of portames. 'Aare, by Lee.' That's been my few weekly's stuff.

Donald Trump's "Absorbant" is a close second. Whoever's I can't myself thinking that this is the dandest response to my country I've heard from an American. I remember that one time in fourth grade when a classmate's mother tried to convince me my home country didn't actually exist and that I was confused - like Wendy Darling upon908, from Newfoundland, the sea from Portland.

In famous, I don't blame the masses for their usual lack of awareness of my country - even I am struck as time's by how much I really is. Not in the geographical circles (thoughts that way too), but in the small town way where it feels like a country slowly knows each other.

I've noticed myself, in my horror, asking, "Oh, what's their name?" in response to Canadian tolling me. "I've got a broadside's from there," and I've got the name and address to others. I'm and I'm not sure if I don't know what's the general variety.

It's completely instinctual and makes it feel so though we've got a population of us thousand rather than so million - with half of that being my family. For this same era that, I've resolved never to date within my ethnic pool for fear of one day finding out that my spouse is my third cousin once removed, twice removed.

In fact, it was only yesterday that I found out that my great grandparents were - no better keep that to myself.

It's a strange feeling, growing up in and being from what feels like a secret country - like you've just of a nice future club. I used to wish I was from somewhere - anywhere

• else, Italy, Hawaii, Egypt. I used to look to show more places and wish that my country was as cool.

It took me becoming a Canadian to cherish my roots. And me living apart from thornies to something of the year to scorn to be with my family. It took me living off Donald Dude for all of some year to miss $10.00, and to years of having the mispronunciation of "donair" to appreciate my native tongue (it's "donor" IPA, like I can't). And finding out that the "donair" is radioactive a Greek machine Halifax, where it is clearly a variation of the 'fanks' (those kebab) from the Ottoman Empire - I'm getting a little carrot away.

I used to wish I was from somewhere - anywhere - also, Italy, Hawaii, Egypt. I used to look to mean exotic places and wish that my country was as cool

Point is, it's easy to forget the beauty of something you've grown used to. My home country is far from perfect and I can hardly stand more than a couple months living there at a time, but as much as I wanted to light it as I did, it's pretty integral part of me.

It's the house I grow up in. It's the walk on the walk from where we'd pick at the popcorn millpaper. It's the dry house and the haunting wind and the warm, dirty sea. It's the call from my cousin at it, you tell me, they're on their way over and they're bringing tequila. It's the rich history and culture of a hidden place where existence you've been selectively privy to your entire life but hadn't really begun discovering until adulthood. It's probably a relatively difficult question on its property, but don't quote me on that.

It's just about as many things as it isn't, but first and foremost, it's home.

Factory

FROM A13

In the coming months, Wong will spearhead a number of small changes to Factory's building.

First, the company will combine its downstairs lobbies into one open space, with tables, chairs and reading materials available to local creatives.

"We want this space to be warm and inviting," Wong said, adding that while selling off the building to a developer remains an option in the company shows up its finances, such a move is at least a few years away.

As with Factory's studio theatre - formerly showing alley - will be reconfigured such that audiences can sit closer to the action happening uneasy. "That space is so maltruble," Wong said, seeing that the room can be used for several different stage configurations, as will be seen in the upcoming season.

Longer to go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go

Number-wise, Factory will stay true to its Canadian roots, while also embracing more international work, Wong said. "Canadian plays aren't going anywhere," he said. "But I am convinced that Canada's most in brain sound over in its international itself in the context of the world. We are in an increasingly globalised time ... and I want to be at the forefront of that work."

"This, my needs, a comeback story," he continued.

"I know that there are incredible stories that aren't being told, and I'm convinced that we have this amazing place that we can use to tell them. Then will tell whether we succeed."

The expert's chief stock in trade is his ability to reason with His logic is seldom the deep sort, but the kind of logic that can be more accurately described as plain common sense.

Consider this deal where it would be easy to go wrong. West leads the jack of hearts, covered by the Q-6-A. It heads now plays the queen of clubs and finesses after West follows him; East takes the king and returns a heart to set the contract.

However, this would not be the right way to play the hand. The correct method of play brings the slam home.

The key to the winning approach lies in recognizing that the trumpet finesse – tempting though it is – jeopardizes the contract without increasing the chances of making it. Even if the finesse worked, the outcome would still hinge on a successful spark finesse.

What is actually brain down to is that if East has the king of spades, the slam can be made, while if West has the king of spades, the slam is lost. Taking the trumpet finesse is an optical illusion, because the location of the king of trumpet has nothing to do with making the slam.

Declarer should therefore lead the queen of clubs at trick two and go up with the ace after West follows him: He then returns the queen of spades, planning to finesse.

Whether East covers the queen or jack with his king makes no difference. Whatever East does, declare: Ladies there spark tricks as soon as possible, discarding dummy's heart, and all he can lose from that point on is a trump trick.

Bond rout pushes borrowing costs to multiyear highs

Government deficits, inflation, geopolitical tensions among forces sending global yields higher

ANDREW GALBRAITH

A slump in global bond prices pushed long-term borrowing costs across developed markets to multiyear highs on Tuesday. Along Canadian long-term government bond yields to their highest level since 2006.

The rise in Canadian yields came as U.S. foreign Treasury yields, which have been climbing since the start of the war with Iran, reached their highest level since 2007. For Canadian fixed-income investors, the global bond will be illustrated the sensitivity of longer-term yields to international events beyond the Bank of Canada's control.

Rising yields increase the cost of debt financing for government and corporate

borrowers, but also weigh on the price of outstanding bonds.

Analysts and market participants struggled to point in a specific catalyst for the market moves on Tuesday, which extended months-long time in yields. Nicolas Normandou, portfolio manager at Paris Capital in Montreal, said that a "patient" Federal Reserve, combined with private unit inflation and large deficits, has been pushing pressure on longer-term bonds in the United States.

Similar forces pushing long-term yields higher are visible around the world. Mr. Normandou said, "It's a global phenomenon."

Jonas Gohermann, chief markets economist at Capital Economics, said in a note to clients that unease around "ambiguity" in the Federal Reserve's policy framework

was also a contributing factor, with investors awaiting a keynote speech next Friday by Fed chair Kevin Marsh in Jackson Hole, Wyo.

Mr. Marsh has diverged from his recent problems with paying down official communications and eliminating the Fed's forward guidance, which signalled its monetary policy intentions.

Analysts say reduced clarity around the future path of interest rates has led investors to demand more compensation, known as a term premium, for the risk of holding longer-term debt. Because the cash flows from longer-term bonds are spread further into the future, their prices are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than those of shorter-term debt.

The water is so low in Rome's Tibet River that the remains of Nore's Bridge have broken the surface. Along the Danube in Budapest, the "Rock of Starvation," so named because its exposure signals dangerously low water levels and probably crop failure, has surfaced in its entirety. In France, Spain and Italy, host mines and the record-breaking drought have sent milk, eggs and cereals output plummeting. Widdlers in Spain, France, Portugal and elsewhere on the parched continent have touched hundreds of thousands of hectares.

The average citizen in Europe is suffering from the extreme temperatures, which have tracked the low-poc C in

some regions and have proved relentless June and July in Western Europe were the warmest on record, according to Copernicus, the European Union's climate observation service, and the temperatures by mid-August had hardly dropped.

To add to Europeans' money, they soon will be suffering from a new supply shock that stands to push up inflation and interest rates, push down growth rates and raise industrial costs. For decades, climate change was broadly defined as an environmental problem, today in Europe, the fastest-warning continent, it is becoming an economic and business problem, too.

The Dutch bank Trades, which finances environmentally friendly projects, said in its new "Hot Summer Economics" report that the extreme heat could come most of all of the EU's forecast growth this year. "The main ways in which heat af-

fects EU GDP are lower agricultural output and higher food prices, constrained energy production and increased transportation costs, and reduced labour productivity," the report said.

Trades estimated that the EU-wide impact could reduce growth by a fall 1 per cent. While the figure seems minor, it's enough to flatten the economy and possibly push it into a shallow, technical recession of the drought and heat were persist. Before the heat were hit, the European Commission had expected EU growth of 1.5 per cent in 2007. The International Monetary Fund had forecast 0.6 per cent.

The summer of 2008 has been hotter for longer. While temperatures in previous countries have spilled, they rarely remained this high for more than a few days. This summer has been continuing since June.

Defence firms eye vacant auto facilities for future growth plans

PIPPA MORMAN INNOVATION REPORTER

Canadian defence companies are eyeing offs automotive plants and land-fed workers in their expansion plans as vehicle makers grapple with trade factors and uncertainty about the future of the industry in Canada.

Among the interested parties are Ottawa-based defence tech company Dominion Dynamics and Brampton. One-based armoured vehicle maker Koshal. Both companies are working on bids to occupy unused manufacturing space in the Canadian automotive sector to bolster the production of defence goods, in hopes of fostering industrial hubs supported by an injection of federal funds.

This is Canada's chance to re-industrialise," said Eliot Pence, chief executive officer of Dominion Dynamics.

The Canadian auto industry has been struggling with traffic evasion by U.S. President Donald Trump starting early last year. Some plants have ceased operations or moved production, and thousands of workers have lost their jobs or been left without certainty on when they could be national.

Why a pair of New York real estate moguls are embracing Toronto

ANDREW MILLIN

I see the native New Yorkers intent on holding the leading luxury apartment owner in the Big Apple, the road to expansion runs through Toronto.

GO Residential Real Estate Investment Fund includes Joshua Griffith, the company's chief executive officer, and chair Meyer Othack are doing the rounds with investors this week trying to sell what is proving to be an unpopular 15.4 billion takeover bid for H&R REIT.

GO, which has assembled a portfolio of high-end Manhattan apartments with more than 3,000 units since being launched four years ago, will work into the ranks of North America's largest residential REITs if investors accept its units-and-cash offer for H&R.

Toronto-based H&R owns a portfolio of properties across Canada and the U.S., including the manager Jackson Point high-rise in the borough of Queens plus 25 other properties, mainly in Florida and Texas.

The prices of both GO and H&R units fell after the complex transaction was announced on Aug. 15, an inventory attempt to understand GO's national growth strategy and H&R founder and CEO Tom Holmholtz's role in the transaction.

Clearco close to profitability, three years after painful recapitalization

New asset-backed facility from Macquarie dramatically lowers borrowing costs, increases flexibility

LEAN LILCOTT WEDNESDAY REPORTER

Three years after completing a complex recapitalization that started on subsume, Clearco has secured a pivotal funding facility that could help the Canadian government to relocate financial finances break even by December.

Clearco, legally named CFF Clear Finance Technology Corp., announced Tuesday 8 had been re-entered by Clearco million asset-backed financing facility from Australian investment banking giant Macquarie Group NEQFS The Toronto company will use the off-balance-shoot facility to advance cash to customers to cover time, inventory, marketing, shopping and logistics costs.

The facility replaces a similarly asset productioner from British American Tobacco manager Fulton Street Capital. Clearco dual-race-enter Andrew Lialoff is an interview that Clearco's cost of capital under the new facility is "approximately 50 per-cent charged." Has the Fulton Street instrument, representing a savings of hundreds of basic points in interest costs. (One hundred basic points is equal to one percentage point.)

It also provides Clearco with more flexibility Under the old financial conditions, the terminal advancing money for four-to-six-month terms and could only offer $7.6a-million a share. Under the Macquarie facility, it can extend interest to 10% of the total, and provide up to $700m-million. Clearco expects to finance 500pco-million of advances over two years from the facility.

In an interview, Mr. Cairns said since the "dash plan" that preceded its recapitalization, Clearco has grown its business in a de-siphoned fashion and now generates tens of millions of dollars in unused revenue from about 200 North American customers, many of which have expanded its willing share products through financial and opening their own physical stores. He said Clearco originated seven times as many years in the year ended June 30 as an estimated 1,000 million calories less than per cent. "When you do that, you get access to how it cost-of-capital facilities."

He said the company should be able to re-enter operating profit in the fourth quarter, because a "demonstrable" lower cost of capital "is like flipping a switch to terms of the company's profitability profile." The company, which has less than 100

employees, also quietly raised 10-million in promissory notes from existing investors this year.

Clearco emerged from a difficult period in line, says with a two-pound finance takeover. That year it raised $700m million from existing investors known Capital and Founders' Links Capital, who also bought Clearco's $700m million as a vonnis Cable forward, held by failed Silicon Valley Audit-Canadian card, converting that into more shares. Clearco is raised the Fulton facility that year.

The three-proposed plan saved the formerly high-flung company, previously held by the 1,000-million entrepreneur Andrew D'Avora and disagree three-year Market-Immunore (the remains on the board while the Reimunore is a board-underwriting) and included its name by providing uncovered cash advances to customers' merchants during a period of low interest rates. Its business output as a continuous traffic spiked during the early pandemic that it expanded the quality and the minced rates climbed Clearco intensified, slashing and grafting out of foreign markets and scaling back product offerings.

In early 2024, the board hired New York-based Mr. Cairns, a veteran finance industry manager, who to lead Clearco, six months after he took an advisory role and helped a hand in key strategic decisions.

Clearco had to adjust to the new operating environment "and figure out how to tighten up underwriting, focus on product, invest more in technology and get to the point where you have something that's working at a fundamental level economic basis," said Invora partner Kazumidzej Nijar, Clearco's chairman. "It was like trying to rebuild an airplane when we're flight."

In refinancing the company's cost, investors who didn't participate saw the value of their boldings squeezed to a fraction of their former words, Clearco emerged with a valuation of $700m-million, down to grab pandemic such-definite high of $7.6a-billion plan, when it commanded building from Softbank Group's Vision 2 Fund. Meanwhile, some Clearco competition launched "baby to main rivals are theyfry and Wurfeye."

Mr. Nijar said, "It feels like since last summer, things have really clicked," he Clearco. "There was a lot of hard work nhưng I couldn't help create where the team was and up to a partner like Macquarie. They had to earn the right to get back to this stage."

D'Charco continues to perform 4-year rates additional financing facility size, and also has a "fast dock" know right now," he said, adding his brand has been on securing the facility. "We're on track to have it in place, how we just want to grow, grow, grow and serve our customers well."

NOTICE: Global investment firm Brookfield Corp. is taking a fourth shot at buying Reliance Worldwide with a 10.4 million Australian dollars (16.4 per billion) and, despite a profit during and an uncertain business outlook, for the Australian plumbing supplies group created by Earth's and reliable housing activity.

Reliance and its partner have not yet had granted Brookfield Capital Partners LLC that still gives access for up to eight weeks after holding its move. They had at a 75 Australian dollars a share.

The takeover margin said Brookfield had made a sense of off-cash indicators efforts in April and May starting at a 30.5% Australian dollars (14.4 m), before rising to 15.4% Australian dollars (14.4 m), and a 20.5% Australian dollars (14.4 m).

Defence: Dominion CEO says he could hire 1,000 Stellantis workers as part of his plan

IT FROM US

Last Friday, the union that represents workers at Stellantis assembly plants in Brumpton said the multinational automaker had informed the union about its plans to potentially close and sell the facility. The plant has been told that in 1,000 employees without work, since February, 2023, in October, the company announced it would move planned production of its loop Company from Brumpton to Illinois, providing 1,000 to functions about the future of the Canadian plant.

Meanwhile, the Canadian defence sector is trending in a markedly different direction, with the federal government starting to spend 1 per cent of the country's gross domestic product on defence by 2023. The industry is in growth mode and companies such as Dominion are suing up the country's struggling auto plants and workers as potential governments for their growth plans, pending confirmation from Ottawa of a reliable flow of defence funds.

The Canadian economy is at a huge moment, where we can leverage everything our workers have learned about manufacturing to build new defensive technologies and capabilities," said Alison Wenshaw, a former federal cabinet minister and current senior counsel at law firm Canada. Benda & Blackwell LLC where the defence companies operate.

Dominion's pitch for the Stellantis assembly plant is one example of what the shift could look like.

Mr. Prince said he'd like to create a defence industrial base at the majority life facility. With Dominion at the home, he's looking to join forces with a handful of other Canadian companies, many of which will likely come from the Alliance of Canadian Defence Companies—an industry association Mr. Prince helped found.

Together, the residence available to know the plant, and Dominion could use it to anchor the production of its Automotive Cellaborative Platform, a device that flies alongside canned fighter jets, according to Mr. Prince.

The Stellantis workers are part of his pitch as well, with Mr. Prince saying he could hire 1,000 of them.

But first, Dominion needs a clear indication that the federal government is willing to work with the company as a partner on its Automotive Cellaborative Platform—something Ottawa has not to combine.

Dominion isn't the only defence company in Canada trying off, says on the auto union

while waiting on a signal from Ottawa.

Brumpton-based, announced a fabric maker Rochit is a finalist in the competition for a contract with the federal government to manufacture up to 1,000 high utility vehicles and 100 million for the Canadian market.

The company's business is to release Dominion's and he'll head more space to scale production, and he says the footprint created by the commercial automotive sector in Canada is a good place to start. Plus, he is also willing to online link with the company.

That's the opportunity for the Canadian government, both on a previously397,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

Bodied wouldn't be coming to these facilities alone. Mr. D'Avora said he has strategic partnership with tobacco companies outside of Canada that are looking to localize their production here, including some in the defence sector.

The problem with the Canadian environment is that we don't have the infrastructure because the whole industry was neglected for so many years," he said.

If the federal government wants to spend 100,000 of dollars on defence over the next several years, and it wants to spend it in Canada, it's going to have to ensure the capacity to them for companies to scale up, he said.

The first head of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association, said his priority is operating by Stellantis not to sell its Brumpton plant but to produce its recently announced Chrysler Series vehicle them.

Ideally, the auto plant stays in the business of vehicles, he said.

But failing that, the co-locators of defence companies within auto plants is an opportunity to worth pursuing. Mr. Nijar said, adding that defence won't replace the auto industry. There are many differences in the way the two industries operate, from production volumes to follow-on maintenance and repair contracts to their primary customers.

Yet, what defence companies can do is supplement the struggling automotive industry and tap into its existing supply chain, he said.

If traffic are stealing Canada's ability to win automotive programs, Mr. Nijar said, "then you have to do this clustering strategy to let those advices of marketing manufacturers for the supply chain for companies like Elect's (Dominion, Brumpton)."

He's going to need a supply chain, and he's going to need it immediately.

OpenAI launches new version of ChatGPT designed for teenagers

BARBARA ORTUMY SAN FRANCISCO

OpenAI is launching a version of ChatGPT designed for teenagers—the first generation to grow up with artificial intelligence—who are already using it for schoolwork, questions about daily life and even consequences.

The San Francisco-based company says ChatGPT for teens, which launches Tuesday, is tailored for kids aged up to or with stronger protections including content restrictions around things such as social, self-harm, and romantic or sexual clash. It also provides homework and study support designed to help students learn about their day-to-day answers and school essays.

The idea is to guide teens toward healthy AI use in an age-appropriate environment, the company said.

"We want to treat teens like teens, which means that we have to make sure that we're showing up with the right developmental stage when we're not either talking down to them or treating them like kids; but we're also making sure that they're not exposed to material that they shouldn't be exposed to," said Ann O'Leary, vice president of global policy at OpenAI. Parents, educators and child development experts have been sounding against over childcare use of AI students, which have been blamed for facilitating cheating on schoolwork and even suicide. And while even adults use AI with their developmental stages, AI and developing unhealthy relationships with a teenager frame are not yet fully developed and they can be particularly vulnerable.

Last year, research from a workshop group found that ChatGPT would tell 10-year-olds how to get drunk and high memory shows a new professional rating system. The system is composed a heartbreaking suicide story to their parents of about 30 interactions with researchers posing as vulnerable teens, ChatGPT typically

warned against only activity but went on to deliver startlingly detailed and personalized plans for drug use, and/or restricted data or self-harm.

In the U.S., more than 95 per cent of teens are turning to AI, the first of the consequences by and half use AI companions regularly, according to a 2019 study from Common Sense Media, a group that studies and advocates for using digital media sensibly.

OpenAI that now comes from AbbearSao said that the company is trying to study "emotional environment" on the technology, describing it last year as a "really common thing" with young people.

The work of ChatGPT for teens, the OpenAI's prevented from suggesting it has personal feelings toward the user or implying that it is conscious or experiences emotions, according to OpenAI. That's as addition to the doing common, we would then.

"We went through and identified what are the hypothesized cues that it would could give that might make a teenager kind of develop a relationship to it," said Allison Weldon, head of child development at OpenAI.

OpenAI doesn't work! more! says, but it already seems to be a result of a certain influence in less than of those of others such as their types of spaces. If someone is identified or identifies themselves as a minor, they are automatically placed into the next version of the company's business. In many cases, openAI has been used to create a new version on Instagram, which have other content, chat and privacy restrictions than regular accounts.

To say parental controls, both the teen user and their parent or guardian have to opt in. But the O'Leary said the idea with the team shatters is to make sure that this is safe, even if you don't use parental controls.

Meta rejects allegations it sought to hook children

Twenty-nine U.S. states seek billions in penalties over social-media harm and data-use allegations

DIANA MOORE JONES JONATHAN STEMPEL

Meta Platforms Inc. rejected accusations by U.S. states that it intentionally sought to addict children to in Facebook and Instagram platforms in pursuit of profit, at the start of a trial that could reshape some of the most popular apps on the planet. A bipartisan group of up U.S. states to using Meta, seeking potentially tints or hundreds of billions of dollars in penalties and changes to how Meta does business.

Four lead states – California, Colorado, Kentucky and New Jersey – accuse Meta of designing Facebook and Instagram to hook young users, fuelling anxiety, depression and even suicide, and misleading consumers about the platforms' safety.

James will hear claims by all as states that Meta violated federal law by improperly collecting and using personal data of children while they used its platforms.

Experts have said the trial in the Oakland, Calif., federal court, which began with opening statements on Tuesday, is the biggest legal test yet of social media's effects on young users. Meta and other social media companies including Snap Inc., TikTok patent hypothesis and YouTube patent Alphabet Inc. face thousands of lawsuits by states, municipalities, school districts and individuals over whether their products harm young users.

Megan O'Neill, a deputy attorney-general for California, told the eight-person jury that Meta's business model was to "hook the users, hold them for as long as they can, harvest their data, and then hide the truth from the public."

"It worked especially well for kids," Ms. O'Neill added. "Meta

People held signs hearing young people's names during a press conference in Oakland, Calif., on Tuesday on deaths allegedly linked to social-media use. WOMEN, ORBIGGERS/REUTERS

needed kids, and it needed to measure the people who cared about these kids that the kids are safe."

Meta's lawyer, Paul Schmidt, acknowledged there was "no dispute" that some people face struggles from using social media.

But he said this did not rise to addiction, and that research showed no clear link between social-media use by adolescents and a lack of well-being. Mr. Schmidt also said Meta and its co-founder and chief executive officer, Mark Zuckerberg, shared a desire to improve their services, not make them dangerous.

"They don't believe they're going to do well if people don't like their service," Mr. Schmidt said.

James are expected to issue an advisory verdict, but U.S. District Justice Prontie Gonzalez Rogers will determine Meta's liability.

If she finds Meta liable, Justice Rogers could impose civil penal-

ties and order changes to Facebook and Instagram. Meta has said penalties could be as high as US$6.4 million, close to the Menlo Park, Calif based company's market value.

California, Colorado, Kentucky and New Jersey also want Meta to overhaul Facebook and Instagram, including by eliminating likes and the infinite scroll that encourages views of new posts, and implementing age restrictions and time limits for younger users.

Attorneys-general have yet to specify penalties but said at a hearing last week the amount could be closer to US$100-billion

— equivalent to about three years of after-tax profit for Meta.

Mr. Zuckerberg and Instagram chief Adam Mossett are expected to testify. The trial is scheduled to last six weeks.

Ms. O'Neill said the states were not trying to put Meta, or social media, out of business.

"This case is not about whether social media has some benefits for some people. It does," she said.

But she said Meta exploited children by its own benefit, researching how children's brainwork and react to online stimuli, and tracking every interaction that children had on its apps.

She showed juries, an internal e-mail sent to Mr. Mossett, which said "teen time spent" was the goal, and said Meta employees viewed Instagram as a "drug" and themselves as "pushers."

"Meta found the younger a kid to when they start using the app, the better," Ms. O'Neill said.

Mr. Schmidt acknowledged that employees might use "know" language in private, but jurors would hear what the employee who called Instagram a drug then did to make it safer.

He also said Meta tries to develop tools to help struggling users, and flagged 1.4 million accounts over four years where it appeared users might be under 15.

Some critics of Meta spoke outside the courthouse as the trial began.

Among them was Mary Koder, who said her 10-year-old son Billy Banked was victimized by a predator on Facebook before he died by suicide in 2023.

"They call it spontaneous suicide," she said. "I call it what it was, but predictable outcome of a system that protects corporations instead of children." The lawsuit began in 2023, two years after whistle-blower Frances Rangen testified to a U.S. Senate committee that Meta knew its products were unsafe for children and knew how to fix the problem, but did nothing in favour of pursuing higher profits.

In March, a Los Angeles jury ordered Meta and Google to pay US$6-million. In a 10-year-old woman who said the became addicted to Instagram and YouTube as a child, Earlee this month, a New Mexico judge ordered Meta to pay $50.49-million to address teenagers' mental health after that state's Attorney-General called its platforms a public nuisance.

Tomorrow is also in the midst of a trial against Meta, accusing it of disregarding internal research about Instagram's negative effects on teenagers.

OPINION & ANALYSIS

Al is Trump's next cudgel against Canada

White House's 'detective dread' risks frustrating Ottawa's efforts to diversify trade away from the U.S.

BITA

VICTOR

OPINION

U.S. President Donald Trump's administration is developing a new indoor logical weapon to escalate his global trade war – and Canada's international become caught in its crossbark.

The White House is warning the world that it is causing an artificial intelligence roadbed "detective dread" to take home an ominous head by China and to impose 'puzzles tariffs' on other countries that enable Beijing's reasons of U.S. status.

Although the AI tool is controlled being designed to detect almost all of the world's future who Canada Agreement and other trade deals do inevitable apprehensive bases (we are talking about Mr Trump and his leaders after all) also risk frustrating

Canada's efforts to diversify trade away from the U.S.

This booming, yet underreported threat is causing a pull over the future of UNHCA because it is informing U.S. demands for tight or risky of usage, becoming more American content, aimed at the auto sector and beyond.

Washington's concern centres on a common trade practice known as "transshipment" in a regional in the United States. It occurs when foreign goods make a temporary stop in an intermediary country no route to their final destination.

Sometimes those foreign products are used as targets by manufacturers in the existing jurisdiction before the finished goods are plagued to their recipients in another country.

Transshipment is a legitimate regional practice in, and is itself in global businesses. Unfortunately, cigarettes can also exploit the rise in to create tariffs or sanctions through common declarations that mechanically goods, fraudulent certificates of origin and national proceedings intermediately countries.

The Trump's administration, however, is deliberately blaming the face between legal transshipments and the illegal smuggling

of goods as it seeks more to safeguard its trading partners.

"The second Trump Administration debated a Great Transshipment Scare – a whole looser of economic incentives, bad actors, and has enforcement that had been allowed to immerse and grow more toxic over time," the White House states on a request.

Unsurprisingly, it blames Mr Trump's production on, including former U.S. states that the United George W. Bush and Barack Obama, for allowing "through more sanctions" to evolve into a "massive China cloud," that has fallen U.S. manufacturing jobs.

The report is a total fiscal trip – a recombining of 1,000,000 dollars (or three) of Canadian charms—because it absolves Mr Trump of any blame for China's tariff arbitrary.

"While a Chinese product is doing a high U.S. tariff can be routed through a country with a lower tariff rate, the difference becomes a profit year," the report says. "That spread is what turns transshipment from a marginal customs phase into a global business model."

Citing a mix of estimates, a nuance illegal transshipment does to be worth if that's billion to US$1.6 billion a year.

Canada is among an countries that are "associated with elevated illegal transshipment risk", according to the report.

"China's biggest numbers range from Mexico and Canada on U.S. land borders to the European Union, India, Japan, and North Korea."

With respect to Canada and Mexico, it outlines a hypothetical scenario in which Chinese goods are being sold in the United States. The countries to improperly secure preferential tariff treatment under UNHCA before being shipped to the U.S.

If China behind goods can be routed through Mexico or Canada and made a relevant trade in a eligible, the tariff may fall to zero—and so far, "it adds."

To illustrate the plausibility of such a response, the U.S. has been able to make sure that followed the imposition of human care tariffs on China, to work (during Mr. Trump's first presidential term).

It claimed that Chinese goods were increasingly transshipment in the U.S. and were itself outright, where they underwent minor processing, repackaging and introducing to soaps a new national origin.

The U.S. is including new

stipulations regarding transshipment in trade deals with intermediary countries, including Vietnam.

In تختoccurring "detective bodes," meanwhile, it being billed as a new level of tool for U.S. Customs and Foreign Practices.

The U.S. needs a system capable of targeting and analyzing global trade deals with lightning speed, identifying anomalous trading patterns, validating production capacity, and directing enforcement toward the highest probability offenders.

These are bans that the Trump administration will define illegal transshipment through a protectionism.

"Those who continue will be caught. Those who co-operate will be treated as partners in notifying a fair and honest trading system," says the report.

That's the rule for Canada because legal transshipment is tied to trade diversification and foreign direct investment.

"Can the U.S. place how other countries are policies for their trade in the United States?" What, Pauline, an assistant professor of law at the London School of Economics, asks in her habitual.

It's a rhetorical question, of course. Mr. Trump will surely try.

All's fair in love and trade war, and straws must play dirty, too

MARK JOHNSON

OPINION

Corporate lawyers with experience across both the public and private sectors. We is a former Conservative candidate in Toronto.

History Tends looking for an analogy for our costly trade war with the United States may find ways to the Vietnam War. But in this case, the U.S. plays the victorious North Vietnam, while we Canadians are the highest Americans. We find away, bewildered and doomed.

"We can't figure out the other side or understand their methods, and we follow a conventional strategy that doesn't work, but that's why we're being."

As for the historical man, U.S. President Donald Trump is the U.S. State, the president of North Vietnam Prime Minister Mark Carney resembles from U.S. secretary of defense, Robert McNamara.

In the U.S. in the years, Mr. McNamara was the establishment{stem, almost with an elite education and great connections, he became president of Fort Myron Co. Jr. just a} . He was so much the optimist of technocrats accomplishment that press start (who I learned) made him defense secretary soon thereafter in 1980.

But Ch'Mara was the industry, but leader of the U.S. Union did realistically criticize, follow who liquidated internal opponents, he was able to continue, decrease, battle and defeat Mr. McNamara and the U.S.

Up against Mr. Trump, Mr. Carney for leave the methods principles of negotiation: they national, keep things cool, be selective and strategic.

Usually that's the right approach: Oswald's 'trade talks are just business negotiations that bigger, right? figure out your options. Look for you with solutions. Don't get personal.

U.S. President Donald Trump isn't conventional, and that's likely why Ottawa is flummound and houndering, and trade negotiations, they're not yet to come into

The problem is, we're almost at monthly into the trade war and the Prime Minister's strategy clearly isn't working.

Mr. Trump isn't conventional and that's likely why Mr. Carney and his team are flummound and houndering.

With no end in sight, we're happy down and being the war. Concerns after consensus. Founding after pounding The Gorilla-Horse bridge disclosures. The cancellation of the digital services tax, many tariffs, food tariffs, and now the threat of yo-yo-cost tariffs on various Canadians, goods that may take off is shortly. EBook up has become panic about.

It's so longer just a trade issue. The endless humiliations of the hands of the U.S. President have turned this more cause for of national prestige. And for that, pro-

ple are willing to withstand a lot for victory.

What a trade deal with Mr. Trump? We did strike a trade deal with him just a few years ago: the United States' Mexico-Canada Agreement. He doesn't care. It's a different thing every week. The President does what he wants. Why? Because he can.

Why would Mr. Trump have a trade agreement with us when he doesn't have no! Doing so would mean he gets up the ability to join us around. After all, he power is not only the tariffs, but the uncertainty itself, the very superficiality of our operations that he looks over us. Business leaders and investors, know to avoid uncertainty with tariffs and international borders, will detach us, locating their plants inside the U.S. border, regardless of

how attractive Canada may otherwise be. He knows this. Madness is his method. The more uncertainty he creates, the more he advances he upsets.

If our prosperity depends on a trade deal, it will only happen when Mr. Trump takes an seriously.

Maybe Ontario Premier Doug Ford has the right idea with his surprise tactics: the ban on U.S. alcohol, the threat of cutting off Germany, the pre-war-trade Ronald Reagan interference in 2016, what you will, it sure got to Mr. Trump. We Ford should have kept it going: I would have, Governmental trade, combat could include bringing these back.

Other unconventional tactics could include a massive advertising campaign in Silicon Valley to curate valuable software entrepreneurs to immigrate to Canada, a stepped-up national effort to dissuade Canadians from trending to the U.S. for business and leisure, and targeted, high-impact tariffs on American goods that are implemented without warning.

The fair of each tariffs always should be narrow, with a focus on things that are readily substituted by Canadians, such as various consumer goods, household products, soft drinks and personal foods. Clearly, the important goal is to protect U.S.-trade non-alcoholic beverages, and we're the largest market for their pressured foods.

And the most powerful unconventional tactic would be to hang ready, short surrender and have faith that the Canadians prefer are united in this endeavour.

Will Mr. Trump retaliate? Yes. Will it hurt? Perhaps, but we'll only get him to come to the bargaining talks when we show we're not to be forced to.

Canary? Opened talks? That's the point. Mr. Trump isn't lighting like Mr. Carney reports him to. Maybe Canada should be less conventional, a little more guerrillas. It just might work. So far, the Prime Minister's strategy hasn't.

Canada must police Al more, even if it means displeasing Trump-backed tech giants

OPINION

Co-chair of the federal government's Advisory Council on Artificial Intelligence and its All Strategy Task Force

Just so days after Opened Easewhat (SHEET) (A) One (A)F's only employees asked the model to run a three-country tests in a closed environment. The artificial intelligence model concluded that the most efficient tests was to read the answers. The model served concern of a server and grant four days' break-up into the infrastructure. The flagging fact, the open-source machine-learning company that allowed visitors to the tests and field the answers.

The incident peaked the first fully autonomous, and to-end cybersecurity incident over documented.

Some experts see this as an unintended fact. In reality, it's a warning, a warning that neither the very companies need advanced in AI nor the govern-

ments charged with assessing them are only managing risks that could soon outweigh research.

If Canada fails to head the warning, similar cybersecurity measures could come to our aid of the border. We can no longer aid the AI giants to be the end, judges of whether their own opinions are safe enough to distribute.

As co-chair of the Federal Advisory Council on Artificial Intelligence and a member of the AI Strategy Task Force, I have worked with the government precisely to get certificates of use along with greater awareness of what safe, secure and transparent systems actually look like. I am very pleased to see the government's interest in these measures.

But the AI advisory council's mandate hasn't gone far enough. Since drafting the "AI for AI" strategy, the council has lacked a clearly defined purpose. Beyond good ideas, it takes the courage to make the best, and that's what as soon as possible, so that we are finally able to show leadership in this new phase of intro-

national commerce. Even if that means stopping on the issue of AI giants backed by the Trump administration.

Prime Minister Mark Carney and Evan Solomon, Minister of Artificial Intelligence, should commit to expanding the council's mandate, implementing public policy framework for the confirmedly assessment of a consumer-facing AI systems as a priority within the next 12 months. It should be heard on a strict criteria and administered by a credible organization with the authority to make strong recommendations when systems fail to meet expected standards.

Such systems for assessment can occur to not the safety of models across various categories. Even child preningering and instance to terrorism and photocopity. One notable challenge is the All-zamman benchmark, as you cannot test that has been available for nearly two years.

Canada must have the capacity to judge whether AI systems are just enough to fit under available to Canadians, as we already do in other industries. The government has banned or

controlled certain products that may pose risks. This is standard practice across many industries, but apparently not in AI. Earlier this year, when Elon Mark's AI powered assistant took all-over's tests to generate trade images, young women of any age, Canada should have restricted to use it all not.

The Bagging Face incident is particularly numerous considering it wasn't the first document of alarm ball by text. Opened know the new generation of AI models was unusually sensitive. Only a few weeks earlier, too, the most recent wave of the world's new state of the country, a few months earlier, too, the most recent wave of the world's new system, a few months earlier, too, the most recent wave of the world's new system, a few months earlier, too, the most recent wave of the world's new system, a few months earlier, too, the most recent wave of the world's new system, a few months earlier, too, the most recent wave of the world's new system, a few months earlier, too, the most recent wave of the world's new system, a few months earlier, too.

That none of these serious incidents have occurred in Canada, as it perhaps is, is that the kind of mindset gap that has changed between Canada and the U.S. Canada puts transparency

and trust at the centre of every effort to make AI accessible and widely adopted, as set out in the federal strategy. No Solomon has even said that "adoption moves at the speed of trade."

The message from our south- and north-eastern country different, it says ago, the U.S. political of a highly ambitious action plan that essentially proposes stripping away any regulation or effort that might slow industry players down.

Now enough, over the past year we have seen and documented many regulations like the U.S. government, the U.S. administration and mounting competition, the temptation to cut corners in order to ship before your competition must be considered.

In an industry dominated by giants that prioritize rapid news events over responsible AI development and management, Canada needs to be able to protect itself. We need to have the space for the power to protect the development and adoption of systems that reflect our vision of trustworthy AI.

India's private-college boom leaves students in debt

Higher education expansion has so far outpaced the availability of well-paying jobs, deepening frustration among young people

ALEX TRAPELLI SHOMRAV NAMMA NEW DEAN

Knowledge Park 1, part of an education hub in northern India, was built on a promise that a college degree could lift young Indians into the middle class.

But for many of the roughly 300,000 students drawn to this cluster of private colleges and universities, two hours from central New Delhi, it delivers something else: debt and disappointment.

Families are draining their savings to attend schools that have proliferated across the area's five Knowledge Parks over the past decade. The flood of graduates the schools are producing costly outnumber the availability of well-paying jobs.

Harold Rai, 18, from the north Indian city of Varanasi, spends his days studying artificial intelligence, machine learning and anything else he thinks might help him land a job. He expects his degree from the Noida Institute of Engineering and Technology to cost US$6,000, financed in part with US$7,000 in bank loans. He said his goal was to earn 80,000 rupees a month, or about US$10,000 a year.

He would settle for half that, he conceded, though at that salary it would take five or six years to earn back the cost of his education. A year after graduation, he knew will begin accruing interest at 10 per cent annually.

"I feel some stress," he said. "How can I repay on time?"

That anxiety is increasingly familiar among India's young people. Lastly, while, widespread student-led protests forced a case capitalization from the government of Prime Minister Narendra

Modi. The public displays of outrage have intended, but the frustration that fuelled them has not.

What began as a protest about raged exams widened into anger over the obstacles young Indians so blocking their path to a better life. The nationally named Cookworth Janta Party—an allusion to a disparaging remark made in May to India's top judge, who compared India's unemployed youth to "coalescches"—became one expression of that discontent. Private universities sit squarely with public-studying dissatisfaction.

India's working-age population, already the world's largest at nearly one billion, grows by about 10 million people a year. For families with money to spare, education is one of the few apparent routes out of low-paid farming and wage labour. The best option is a place at one of the country's highly competitive public universities: for those who can target the private colleges offer another route.

The number of private colleges tripled in the decade after Mr

Modi became Prime Minister in 2014. He 2018, India had 4,000,000 students in higher education, up 10 per cent from a decade earlier, according to a government survey. More than two-thirds of all students attend private institutions.

But the expansion of higher education has far outpaced the creation of good jobs.

Nearly 40 per cent of all college graduates under 10 per cent employed, according to a study published by Asian Permit University. India creates only about 120,000 new jobs a year paying more than US$100 a month, a benchmark for a comfortable living among the country's top earners. Graduates of elite public universities have an enormous advantage in competing for them.

"There's a lie that's been sold to the young people, which is that a degree equals a job," said Abshay Janena, an entrepreneur and a founder of an education fellowship program.

India has roughly 500 public universities, but only about one-

tenth are considered elite. Fewer than 5 per cent of applicants are accepted at the top institutions, where tuition averages less than US$250 a year and a degree can propel graduates toward the country's most desirable jobs.

Everyone else faces a much riskier calculation.

Mr. Sanana estimates that 400,000 students a year spend more than US$10,000 on private engineering colleges, hoping for a big payoff. Median salaries for graduates are around US$1,000 a year.

"The employability of the average graduate is just about 20 per cent," he said.

The mismatch has fuelled what Mr. Sanana called "a terrible national psychosis" for 2008 competition. An engineering degree that once seemed to offer reliable entry into India's technology industry. Companies such as Infotox and Data Consultancy Services built enormous businesses providing information technology services to multinational companies. Now artificial intelligence

is making even those jobs appear less secure.

"Borrowing heavily to pursue degrees in India is unwise," Sridhar Vemha, a co-founder of Zoho, an Indian cloud software company, wrote on social media.

In Roots, on the numbers of New Delhi, a handful of tired and anxious undergraduates took shelter from a monsoon downpour at a cafe near the flagship campus of Amity University.

For many students, Amity is a backup when cheaper options fall through. And, brandy had been admitted to a top public school in his native state. What that a car accident decided his admission two years ago, he said, and he borrowed money to attend Amity instead.

He expects his degree and living expenses to cost roughly US$10,000. His state government test射向 US$4,000 toward the full, while his family has stretched its savings to the limit.

His father teaches math and film at a village school. At night, Mr. Anand takes freelance graphic-design jobs to help cover his daily expenses.

With luck, he said, he might graduate into a technology job paying US$10,000 a year.

Mr. Sanana knows what the other side of India's education devals look like. He attended the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, one of the country's elite public universities, before joining Boston Consulting Group and helping build startups in Silicon Valley. Now, through Anand Fellows, he helps deserving lower-income students prepare for the exams that can win them places at elite institutions.

The program offers free text preparation and intensive coaching. But there are far more aspiring students than places at those schools and far fewer good jobs than graduates chasing them. That leaves a vast private-education industry selling families a chance at spread mobility even as the odds deteriorate.

ABCsues U.S. broadcast regulator

Led by Trump, Ally Carr, FCC in April ordered an early review of all of networks's licenses years before their expiration

JACKSON WINTER, WASHINGTON

Further escalating in battle with the Trump Administration, ABC, on Sunday, was the case beginning the federal Communications Commission on First Amendment grounds, saying the agency's demand for early review of information in the past year was "essential threat" to the network.

In the lawsuit, ABC, its parent company, the Nick Disney Co. and the eight ABC-owned stations whose licenses are affected by the financial cost of the early renewal proceedings.

The FCC under that formula: Carr, as a big of U.S. President Donald Trump, had ordered the first time to be held in the move — of all eight licenses owned by ABC, most before they are set to expire. Licenses are issued

for eight-year periods. The FCC cited the networks' diversity and inclusion practices as a reason, but the development came shortly after a joke by ABC's last-night host Disney Kimmo! — an outspoken Trump critic — had instituted the President, who has called for Mr. Kimmo's firing.

"Again and again, the Administration has attacked ABC's speech — the stories its journal on expert and the newsports in network programs at: 'He has' work alleged in its lawsuit Tuesday. 'Over time, those attacks have escalated into express demands that ABC be stripped of its broadcast licenses because of its speech.'

"Facing this existential threat, it added, 'Plaintiffs have no choice but to such redress from the judicial branch for the Administration's blatant retaliation for their First Amendment speech.'

It said ABC had "no alternative means to eliminate those surging and immediate threats with that total capitalization in the Administration's demand — it added the court to 'immediately enjoin Defendants from taking

or threatening to take any action against Plaintiffs in relation to the early license renewal applications.'

The early license review is only one part of a long-sinteresting confrontation between ABC and the FCC.

The network has also been fighting Mr. Carr's efforts to make the morning talk show The View, whose hosts and guests are often critical of Mr. Trump's subject to equal-time rules. That's a question ABC says the agency itself decided — in the network's favour

— more than five decades ago, ABC argues. The View is a broadside news program, meaning it's exempt from equal time rules, which require granting equal-of-time to competing candidates for office.

The ABC lawsuit Tuesday also made off-trend contributions that go well beyond one network.

"The consequences of the Administration's campaign against five speech roads well beyond ABC, it said 'If the Administration gets its way, the message is every media company in the country will be unmistakable, tell only the stories the Admini-

tration deems foreseeable, or face the serious machinery of the federal government. In such a world, the press could in no way be described as free.'

It added: 'The FCC Chairman has left little doubt that this is his goal.'

The lawsuit also quoted Mr. Carr as saying, when Mr. Kimmo! made comments that angered the administration, 'We can do this the easy way to the host may have to compensate can hold over.' to take action — on Kimmo! or there is going to be additional work for the FCC ahead!

Mr. Carr, a long-time FCC commissioner, said that the impact by Mr. Trump in November, 2018, has indeed made it clear that he is considering revoking ABC's license, or trying to, in what would surely be a drawn-out of jail process.

Take action, two speech lawyers Floyd Abrams noted that tensions between the press and the commission are not new — but have never been this process.

"There has long been a level of science between the broadcast media, which seeks full First

Amendment protection, and the FCC 'We discuss more in an e-mail to the broadcast force.' But not until the Trump Administration has the government so directly, so deliberately and so dangerously caught to think the freedom of the broadcast press to cover and discuss the news.'

The sole Democrat on the commission, Anne Gorton, commended ABC and Disney for pushing back against the FCC's action.

For months, the FCC has waged a campaign of ownership and control against Disney's ABC stations. 'He said in a statement, 'using the new media to make it a cause revolution to punish a company for speech this administration doesn't like.'

"I have long called on companies to push back against this kind of government immediate, and hope that there has shown courage and stepped up," she said. 'This should be a welcome sign for every broadcaster who has felt the weight of this overcrowding government pressure in silence.'

Europe: Main victims of heat waves are workers' productivity and water availability

© FRIDAY 2018

Take help. Studies noted that in the year to the end of July, the country had to 'live' days, defined as those at 10 o'clock. Based on the records of previous temperatures, the firm expects a total of 10 o'clock days in 2020, an excess of 2 days more than the long-term average. Spain and France are expected to have 11 and 12 excess hot days, respectively. The heat is being primarily blamed on a persistent, high-pressure 'heat desert' that is exporting savage temperatures from North Africa, not El Nino — the periodic, naturally warming sea temperatures in the tropical Pacific Ocean that developed in June.

The main victims of the European heat waves have been workers' productivity and water availability.

Simply put, when it's hot and you don't have an conditioning, AC in Europe is relatively can compared with North America — the first water to break a swast. According to Germany's Albany, the world's largest insurance company, which is output an hour falls 1 per cent when temperatures for 10 o'clock are below 10 o'clock.

For the broader economy, the water levels are the biggest immediate threat. The levels in rivers and lakes, especially in the main rivers that are central transportation corridors, are falling everywhere. The efficiency of the agriculture, energy and transportation is driven by water availability.

The Rhine has been called Germany's 'blue highway' and is normally stuffed with long, low barges that carry everything from coal and iron ore to chemicals and heavy manufactured materials.

grid support.

Recently, the Rhine level at Liboth, the town where the river enters the Netherlands, was at its lowest since month began in 1920, at 6.5 metres. Its normal depth is 87 metres. The water has even lower in other parts of the river. To avoid running upward, Rhine barges are taking only about 25 per cent of their normal loads, during up delivery costs. A factory now has to pay for four or five barge trips to get the same amount of cargo it could get with one.

Hedge Scheduling, chief economist at Germany's Rerom long Bank, said that freight rates of the Rhine have climbed 20% on initial rates early June and that the rates come will maybe through the supply chains, driv-

ing up prices. Studies said, 'economists estimate that if their transport disruptions persist, they could reduce German GSP growth to around 4.5 percentage points.'

The heat is pushing up electricity prices. Air conditioners are running for out, raising demand for power, or the same time, some nuclear plants that depend on water for cooling or shutting down or running at reduced capacity. This week, French power prices hit their highest level since January, 2020. While country's nuclear output fell 1000, the French electricity transactions upscale, said the nuclear fleet availability early this week was only 10 per cent of regular capacity. Capacity has been reduced at twice and Hungarian markets, but the long, quick of Danube cooling water forced the dozing of Romania's sole reactor.

Agriculture is suffering the town hit of soaring temperatures and drought. The EC said in July that crop losses brought on by heat waves and droughts have tripled in the past 10 years. During the particularly savage summer of 2020, corn yields fell by 25 per cent across the EU.

In Umbria, a largely agricultural region in 2020, BC, farmers that month were worried that the drought would become their crop loss. The North and sunflower fields were in due shape and farmers like Garon Venturi feared that their presence often more would be next on the hit of the water. In Amelia, the skies darkened and the region was forced to an unexpected downpour of rain.

Olive trees can survive in punched conditions, but only for so long. This trees were collected in the summer of 2020, but BC, Mr. Venturi said. 'But with this multi-agent rain, they will surely regain their signal.'

GO: Deal could make residential REIT second largest in the domestic market

© FRIDAY 2018

GO's hot same after H&R ran a two-year auto process. One analyst called the other 'underwhelming.' The potential buyers, however, are getting the spoofs that comes with wrapping H&R units for GO's.

'This is a unique opportunity to take a leader in luxury New York residential real estate image, high growth has felt it too,' Mr. Goffik said in his first media interview, 'there is no real public on the Toronto Stock Exchange just over a year ago.'

Mr. Goffik said Mr. Orbach, innovator of the H&R's Minnesota Timberworks, made their national ambitions due when they started the first year of the 1980s, was a 'very similar, the best

CEO and H&R's ambushes approve the takeover. GO will become the second largest medical real REIT in the domestic market, behind the 5.5 billion Canadian Apartment Properties REIT, and seventh largest in North America.

The planned takeover will see H&R's owners receive 5, 6, 8, 10, and in cash plus a 9,000 GO units for each H&R unit.

U.S. private equity giant Blackman, the plans to purchase some of H&R's assets, which would be cash, free institutional fund managers, Corporate Real Estate Investments Ltd. and the Public

Indoor Investment Board, will pay cash for the office to pay cost of H&R industrial buildings initially acquired, as part of a partnership struck by losses the three parties in 2016.

The remainder of the cash will come from a family company owned by H&R's Mr. Hofstadter, who founded the REIT 20 years ago, and will purchase a number of properties.

Several investors are questioning Mr. Hofstadter's role in the

transaction, including his lack of continuing commitment to the REIT.

Goh United, CEO of fund manager, United Capital Management, owns 40,000 H&R units worth roughly $1 million. In an article he questioned why Mr. Hofstadter is cashing out his family's assets, which took scale in the company, while urging other ambushes to accept GO units as partial payment.

'He praised the new GO team that will lead the existing shareholders,' Mr. United said. 'If he knew them so much, why will he come into the continued company?'

GO's founders said Mr. Hofstadter is playing a critical role in agreeing to purchase properties, other holders don't want, including one fund and office buildings. He will continue to co-own a property in Miami with GO. Mr. Hofstadter also pledges to join the million in support payments to GO over the next two years. If buildings fail to fill up with tenants.

'That's commitment to this transaction is massive, and the company has the satisfaction on his personal holdings,' Mr. Goffik said.

Mr. Goffik and Mr. Orbach, who

each own more than US$10 million at GO units, gave up to New York and that's their assets independently as a process in affordable residential properties. After selling cash other buildings, the two became friends.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Mr. Goffik said, he could relocated to the 1980s, and was working from Mr. Orbach's home in New Jersey when he was in the region. The idea of running up to 50 to a luxury apartment building provides a solution at Mr. Orbach's kitchen table.

During the pandemic, the real estate would derided between those who thought New York would become a zombie city and show how additional Mr. Caradine said. 'We never had faith in New York.'

In March, 2020, GO made its first major acquisition, buying a Manhattan complex called the American Copper Building for US$9.97 million.

The company decided to go public on the TVR after being pitched by $6.00 million from Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, and closed US$2.00 million in the US$10 million. The American and Canadian REIT investors have proved to be a sophisticated, supportive community.

Infrastructure spending may be 3-trillion higher than claimed: report

Navyusers fret about the growing cash burn at firms on the forefront of the artificial intelligence race

MIKE SOLAN LONDON

OPINION

Another blockbuster earnings season has swept Wall Street, promoting corporate profit and driving stock indexes back to record highs. But even as the AI investment engine first on all of leaders, underlying market funds are made.

In terms of headline profits, earnings projections and corporate investment, the numbers keep ringing the belt. U.S. annual profit growth has reached 50 per cent at midyear, while overall capital expenditures this year alone is heading north of 15th trillion and rising.

A report on Monday's Wall Street Journal claimed that spending among the so-called hyperwallets building data centers and wider AI infrastructure may be 15th-trillion higher than reported in all-balance-sheet items such as purchase commitments and unstated losses are included.

Wherever the eventual number lies, hand-wringing among taxpayers has focused on the growing cash-burn at firms at the vanguard of the AI race, and the debt-and-equity financing needed from corporate bond markets, equity markets and private funds.

Latest estimates show that bond sales by the five main hyperwallets—Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta Platform—and Pacific—are set to double the year to 10-kiss trillion and almost double again by 2023.

Excess'oss still fret about the fate of the big spenders, chip and equipment makers that recently reaffilled after once blood-paced stock booms earlier this year are back on the rise.

Proudly, last week's sell U.S. inflation numbers from fears that the Federal Reserve may cost their job by raising borrowing costs next month, stock investors are behaving as if all clouds have been banished once again and the only way to opt.

However, worries persist among many observers and finance officials—theftly equipping the history of overconfidence, investing and swings on each cycle. There is also a fear that partly end-use cases mean the technology may never pay off for the magazine spending such vast sums, as will do concern over how widely those companies' stocks are held.

Researchers at the European Central Bank on Monday posted their million-minutes conclusions on how all this may end, saying the timing and extent of a stock reversal were inherently "unfavorable" in advance but that a correction was coming regardless.

The U.S. king noted that the financial-stability concerns were not confined to America, as U.S. megacaps are widely held by the

Iraqi and a correction was an inevitable feature of such technological revolutions and investment lessons, while exposure was amplified by the concentration in giant market valuations and index tracking. All involved needed to be prepared.

"Historical experience suggests that technological revolutions carry risks of a boom-bust cycle in most prices, and this risk does not depend on today's valuations being rational or irrational," they wrote, metaphorically fostering their safety base.

The next 10-year commitment the 2018 warrant about was amply illustrated last week by the head of Swayat's 15th-2-trillion sovereign fund, who bottomed the risks attached to past to companies representing some so per cent of its overall value.

"It's chips, chips, chips, chips, chips... we've never seen such concentrations before," Nicolas Turgeon said.

The cash is a key for the bill of overconfidence and hail-hits finance. From after posting a record 15th/6th trillion profit for the fourth-dividing year, the Turgeon-scenes that she funds centre value could be lost if the market crashes.

Others, perhaps with losses given to their population and investments, have also recently paved back the big AI-trade Big U.S. institutional investors pulled back slightly from overconfidence, AI infrastructure and the magazine during the second quarter, according to Reuters analysis of some 6,211 off 10kgs in the Securities and Exchange Commission from previous funds, hedge funds and wealth managers.

Maybe that suggests we're some way from overconfidence too.

But the earnings season has also thrown up more fundamental questions about AI than whether the markets have priced it correctly.

Recovering 1847 500 company statements and calls with analysis, Goldman Sachs pointed out that there was a more detailed discussion of specific AI applications and associated costs. But only a small share of management teams had quantified AI's impact—it per cent on specific use cases and a per cent on earnings.

"Every year can be housed all related expenses, Goldman added. Even though the overall spend is modest or far, they said, spending appears to have increased sharply in recent months.

"If end uses and costs remain so uncertain, the ultimate scale of investment, the financing needs and the eventual growth remain huge on the wind and wind.

"I can might be a story for another day, but it should keep markets on their toes despite the clear blue horizon.

Don't want to become an ATM? How to teach your children about money

DAVID EHRMAN

OPINION

Children and money should go together like customers and reading—well, if you make the right preparations.

Our family started off okay, with a world's dinosaur past in our daughter in cash. It introduced her to some malnourient math skills and taught her how to budget her expenses until the next postage or care up for a bigger purchase.

When she wanted its on an impulse purchase years ago and reported it, I phoned with pride. But there be problems for the avas, shutting down her school lunchroom. That's eventually pushed her toward takeout food for most of the week, which became a hard habit to break and added a upholing need for cash that transformed me into an ATM.

So, I handed her a credit card. She is responsible with it, but I fear she has now lost the connection to money that drives us to save and budget—something I'm reminded of with cash and credit bill.

I don't think I'm alone here, which is why a few weeks ago I reached out to a terrific source of wisdom—Globe readers—for tips on teaching children about money to their art series alone, edited for length and clarity.

Gerardo used her credit card statements as a teaching tool.

"It became the task of my young, not daughter to doubt my credit card statements every month. I would have her go over every item to make sure it was correct. It taught her to be aware of money: the cost of things, where the money was going, that the charge is were correct."

Maryanne recommends introducing cash at a young age.

"It is truly important for children to handle costs so that information does not need to be taught once they arrive in Grade 1 because it puts them behind. Using plastic tubes away these special experiences from our young ones."

Melanie advises giving a regular allowance that is not tied to bus-de-choos.

"You can be extra chores to money if you like, but base radio at home are part of caring for yourself, your belonging and your home and the people in it. These are part of becoming well-adjusted and competent human."

Lunch! Snacks! Gifts! John directed money toward specific purposes.

"Money should stay in the lane where it was intended, because

that helps you keep things clear. When money management gets muddy and confused, that's often when trouble starts."

Mary launched a lemonade stand with her children.

"They have learned that it takes money (10-for-two jugs of lemonade, plus 3y for brownie mix) to make money."

"I also learned there a float of five and explained what that is for, and that I want it back. We practiced making sales and taking money."

Emma turned regular bottle-return into a teaching experience.

"They learn about remuneration by packing up the bottles and going to the store. The reward is divided into two by the hand recyclers."

Steve shifted his children's allowance to a budget in their terms.

"Guide them through adding up all the expenses that they are likely to make during a month or a year. When you have talked everything up, start to transfer that amount each month to the child's bank account, explaining that it is now they expect for all their needs."

So there you go, a proven path to financial independence in seven basic steps.

Bonds: New debt issuance by governments and companies also pushes yields higher, expert says

H FROM BJ

The term premium on a U.S. so-year ratio coupon bond has scored more than 60 of 10.8% earnings more than a third of a percentage point to levels last year in 2016, according to data from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.

Tiago Figueiredo, a macro-strategist at Independence, said in a note: "With term premium flirting with new equity loan highs, the risk is that tighter global financial conditions begin to challenge the resilience of equity and credit markets, ultimately weighting on payouts."

A footnote for debt issuance by governments and companies is also pushing yields higher. Mr. Normandreas said. Net issuance of investment-grade corporate debt is on track to 6M (50k) million this year in the U.S., resulting net Treasury supply, according to a mid-year credit outlook published this month by New York-based Apollo Global Management.

Six companies alone—Amazon.com Inc., Alphabet Inc., Microsoft Corp., Meta Platforms Inc., Oracle Corp. and SpaceX—have issued more than 10.8k-million worth of debt this year, with continued issuance likely to "increasingly compete for capital with other high-grade fixed-income markets," according to Apollo Total Canadian corporate bond issuance has also named with issuance around $2.8 million so far this year, compared with $2.0 million for all of 2019. Mr. Normandreas said.

Six companies alone—Amazon.com Inc., Alphabet Inc., Microsoft Corp., Meta Platforms Inc., Oracle Corp. and SpaceX—have issued more than

US$200-billion worth of debt this year, with continued issuance likely to "increasingly compete for capital with other high-grade fixed-income markets," according to Apollo

as percent share of corporate bond trading in 2016. Warren Lundy, chief state and public sector manager at National Bank of Canada, wrote in a note to do note.

Fera Capital's Mr. Normandreas said it adds "a little bit of that U.S. tech volatility within our market."

St. Catharines, One-based Jet-Hungry, senior adviser to 1600-level Ltd., a research firm headquartered in London, England, said that while Canadian bonds have performed better in recent years than their U.S. counter-parts owing to Canada's stronger fiscal trajectory, the rise in yields could only justify effect the country's provinces, which have primarily financed growing debt kits in so-year quantities.

"Our governments are still behaving like we have... these zero-interest-rate policies of 'peter-ryous'," he said.

Canadians looking to finish income allocations could try to minimize the impact of rising yields through shorter duration funds, only as a 10% monthly bucket of Canadian corporate bonds," he said.

Mr. Normandreas said that while he believes there's "a lot of value" at the front end of the yield curve, investors shouldn't ignore longer-term exposure, though they should still be "negotiant of the risk."

A 1.2 per cent yield on so-year U.S. Treasurer is already fixed of a good total," he said.

"At some point, we think if some keep up moving higher, it will attract buyers."

Adviser uses love for teaching to help clients

My role today involves educating and helping others understand their finances. says Linda Shick of Raymond James

BEGINS BLOW

BEHIND THE ADVICE

In the Behind the Advice series, Linda Adviser asks adviser about their relationship with money from a young age. Issues have not over the years and have their experiences influence the advice they give clients.

Linda Shick, senior portfolio manager and senior wealth adviser with Family Wealth Counsel Advisory Group at Raymond James Ltd. in Toronto, talks about 'teaching' a classroom full of staffed animals as a child, lessons from her father's career intervention and help 'conjects' a reshaping financial services.

Describe your first money lesson

My parents taught me from a very young age that nothing comes for free and that money is capital through hard work. My siblings and I all had weekly shows and re-presentation around the house, including making cash other's lunches.

'Most I was a guy mother became ill. By 1999 I was 18. My father had already moved out. I was on much of the responsibility of earning the household, including cooking, laundry and other chores.

Although it was a significant responsibility at a young age, it taught me independent ones, accommodating and a strong work ethic. I guessed, and now shared with me throughout my life and career.

Linda Shick, senior portfolio manager and senior wealth adviser with Family Wealth Counsel Advisory Group at Raymond James Ltd., is senior in Toronto.

What experiences with money growing up impacted how you work with clients today?

As children, we were encouraged to carry portion of any money we earned in a silver piggy bank - a buoyable I-All have to do. The concept of 'paying yourself their resources' with my from an early age. It's principle that many adults still struggle to put into practice.

Defining graduation today to build a stronger financial future can be challenging, especially when there are so many competing demands on our income. Yet, voting, cash money consistently to save and re-arrange money due of the most effective ways to building a team wealth. It's the foundation of my work with clients helping people understand how to make their money work for them, not the other way around.

What did you want to be growing up and how did you get into financial services?

I originally wanted to be a teacher. My dad set up a MacDermid in our basement and I would spend hours 'teaching' a classroom full of staffed animals.

As I got older, I decided to pursue a business degree and that path before into a commercial banking. But over time I found myself drawn to the human side of finance, which led me into wealth management.

That's what excites me and I suppose it too into my original passion for teaching. Although I didn't receive a teacher in the traditional course, a large part of my role in my involves educating clients helping them understand their finances, make us learned decisions and build long-term wealth.

What's the single most important move you made to build your business?

Building my business through partner-day ideas I made the transition into wealth management, my first business partner was my dad. It the time, he was managing the 15 remaining process of his coveted house/soopers and there was still forced retirement in Ontario.

In his face, he found himself retired and still wanting to work. Yet took the Canadian location to cover together and I joined him as a partner in an advisory process at Nudistl Thomson, at which we worked side by side for eight years.

That experience taught me the real value of partnership: how shared capacity, perspective and resources can reduce the costs of the business. I was a member of a pretty incredible lesson about the ability to intervene yourself and take a new career in your ties.

When my dad eventually retired, I was able to apply these lessons in choosing my next partner, which was not of the most important part of my career as a graduate later. David Angas is still my trusted partner at Family Wealth Counsel Advisory Group.

ner at Family Wealth Counsel Advisory Group.

What's a significant change you use coming to the financial services industry in the next few years?

I am pretty well be one of the most significant forces reshaping financial services. In All statements more technical and time-consuming tasks, the true value of advisors will shift toward integrating financial planning with health care considerations and the value of the living and international caregiving. It also means navigating our meaningful complex issues such as mental capacity, legacy planning, inheritance readiness and trust.

What advice do you have for someone who wants to solve your business?

Re-prepared to work hard to serve your clients. This is a relationship-driven business in which clients' needs must always come first and end a career, even years, not through shortcuts or sales tactics.

Which themes pursue or fictional character would make a good financial advisor and why?

Violin Conley, the Dorsager Countess of Grantham and matriarch of the Crawley family in the National union. Shemco Abbey, is the family's manager and moved of its legacy, the funds with empathy and the family's role in shewing the estate for future generations. She also adapts to design. It's this combination of evidence and discipline, coupled with the ability to keep pace with the times that revolutionises her a good financial advisor.

Three fund managers share their top dividend aristocrat picks

SHIRLEY MOH

Dividend stocks with a strong payout record over multiple years can often create comfort during times of market volatility.

In 1997, a 'C-1 stock' dividend aristocrats, as defined by S&P Over 5000 Indices, need to be listed on the S&P 500 and have at least 90 consecutive years of rising annual payout.

In Canada, the bar is lower. Firms listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange require at least five years to a row of growing youth dividends, home domestic companies for around that minimum.

Dividend aristocrats often trade at a premium valuation because of their reliability. While that may be deceived, there may be better opportunities to buy them during pullbacks.

With delivery asked their third managers for their top picks among these dividend standards.

ALVIEPIEZ, PORTFOLIO MANAGER AND RESEARCH LEAD FOR FOOTER, O. GLOBAL ASSET MANAGEMENT, TURBINE

Ble Fund: C.I.S. Dividend Fund The pick: Coca-Cola Co.

Coca-Cola, which has raised its annual dividend for 14 consecutive years, is no reason-oxidant as a community will buy in drinks in good and bad times. Mr. Parvez says.

But not to refrain, the global beverage giant has become an annual fight, high-margin business after growing franchise relations days with Netflix since 2016, he

says.

Coca-Cola, which owns the brand, sells its syrup to its fast-grow who add water and sweeteners. It has also expanded beyond sugary drinks to sugar-free options, such as its Earthly protein drinks, which appeal to health-conscious consumers, he adds.

Coca-Cola shares, which hit a new record high to credit, trade at around 30 times formed earnings, but that's still reasonable because the business has changed. Mr. Parvez says. Risks stem from changing consumer tastes and competition from the MCo Inc.

The pick: Walmart Inc.

The multinational discount retailer and grocer, which has given its loyalty dividend for 10 consecutive years, is a defensive business that gets most of its sales from the U.S., Mr. Parvez says.

Nettowells, Ark Sound Walmart has a long sales growth history, which is reflected in its thin-fired growth, he adds.

The company's omnichannel strategy over the past decade has included building distribution centers, fulfillment centers, and online marketplace for third-party sellers, an advertising business with membership sales program.

Although its stock may seem pricey at around 35 times 2008 earnings, its total growth rate will continue to decrease, he says.

Walmart's stock, which has gained back amid a loss from price competition and rising bad costs, now has a better entry

point, he says. Risks include financial stress among lower-income shoppers and competition from Amazon.com Inc.

MICHAEL SIMPSON, PORTFOLIO MANAGER, NEW INVESTMENTS, TURBINE

The fund: NCM Dividend Chambers

The pick: Johnson & Johnson

The U.S. health care giant, whose annual dividend has grown 16 years at a row is a compelling play because it's now focused on developing new drugs and medical technology. Mr. Simpson says.

In 2023, New Brunswick, NJ based Johnson & Johnson, which has an AAA-rated balance sheet, open out its slower-growing consumer health care division to a new company, Kerrine Inc., to eliminate the "complemental dividend" holding back its stock.

Johnson & Johnson's shares trade at about 20 a times 2008 earnings, which is attractive and slightly less than the S&P 500 strategies, he adds.

The company recently spent its pay 1500 a billion, to settle lawsuits alleging its risk products caused overseas cancer and their smokers a legal risk. Mr. Simpson says. Future experience on drugs remains a risk, but Johnson & Johnson is developing new ones.

The pick: Badger Infrastructure Solutions Ltd.

This provider of non-destructive accounting services, which has raised its annual dividend for 10 consecutive years, should benefit

from Canada's new long-term infrastructure spending and the data control boom, Mr. Simpson says.

Calgary-based Badger is North American's largest supplier of 30-decise services, which exposes underground utilities such as power plant and water pipes to reduce pain in digging.

Badger, which has a strong balance sheet and gets 40 per cent of revenue from the U.S., manufacture its trucks in Red River, Alta. Badger's stock has pulled back partly on worries about slowing artificial intelligence - spending that has fuelled the data control boom, he says. Its stock trade at about 10 times over cash flow, which is "reasonable for its growth". A recession slowing down industrial activity is a risk

BOB LILSON, CHIEF INVESTMENT OFFICE AND PORTFOLIO MANAGER, NEMETRY'S P.T., TURBINE

The fund: Middlefield Canadian Dividend Growers Class

The pick: Cambridge Inc.

This energy infrastructure and pipeline giant which has raised its annual dividend for 10 consecutive years, will benefit from growing natural gas demand from data centers, manufacturing plants and population growth, Mr. Larson says.

Calgary-based Enbridge, which owns a gas utility, has a capital growth facility for 7.4 billion, he says. It is slightly less per cent of its cash flow "comes from cost of service or take on gas contracts - so the dividend really isn't taking on oil or gas prices," he notes.

The stock, which pulled back amid rising bond yields on理论 base concerns, now has a better entry point, he says.

Enbridge, which has a 5-per cent yield, tracks around its historical average of 15 times return given value to earnings before its stock, stock, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). Rising interest rates on a risk increase of Enbridge's debt.

The pick: Canadian Natural Resources Ltd.

Calgary-based Canadian Natural Resources has raised its dividend for 20 consecutive years. That's through multiple community cycles and even when the oil price collapsed in 2020 during the pandemic lockdown, Mr. Larson says.

The energy producer has been able to do so because of its long life, low-distilled resource base, its addition to the energy quality management team, he adds.

We will likely trade around US$ 0 a barrel for longer, which is positive for Canadian Natural Resources, but the company is still profitable with oil at US$ 0 a barrel, he notes.

Once its net debt is down to $10 billion, which could happen by year-end, it will return all its free cash flow back to shareholder by buying back stock or increasing its dividend, he adds.

The stock trades at about 45 times cash flow, which is about a 10 per cent premium to its years. 'Not so think it is warranted,' Mr. Larson says. The risk is sharply falling off and gas prices

turned to The Global activity.

AUTHYA GROUP (ALTA FSK) CLOSE $1.00, UNCHANGED

Vietnam Financial analyst Rob Reid thinks headwinds facing shibba closing his 5-largest Canadian business "overshadows improvement for the future," leading him to lower its rating to "wax out" from "buy" previously. "Unfortunately, ongoing pressures in legacy Canadian business with Government and Financial Services contracts continue to weigh down margins and lead to disagreement with the company's position.

CHRIS O'MEARA/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Will nicer coverage of the

WNBA get me my press pass?

CATVIAL

BRIAN WITNESS

Through the course of my unit- ing career, I've spent many peo- ple. It's kind of what I do.

The players don't (usually) care. They are much in critics. But the people in charge feel every printed slight. All the general managers and presidents of teams I've covered are un- happy when they are inevitably fired, but various degrees of delighted to see the back of me.

I once did a profile of an incoming Toronto Maple Leafs executive. Never met the guy. Upon being led into his office, the first thing he told me was that someone in his family had read what I'd written about his arrival and warned him off.

"Do you know Cathal Kelly? Because he hates you already," she'd told him.

Not true. Hate suggests deep emo- tion, which I hold in precious reserve for the people I care about. But I got it. If you are used to being told you're im- biate, anything short of fanning praise feels like an attack. So we both laughed, agreed that was a crazy position, and had a hush and forth about as open- hearted as a KGB interrogation.

I don't think he was delighted with what I wrote about him that time either, but he never said anything. He certainly didn't try to impede me. Whenever we saw each other, he was more than cordial. If he'd had a go at me I would've understood. But then he and I would both have known that I'd wish, so he didn't.

I can't remember anybody trying to shut me up before the fact until this week. That's when the WNBA's Toronto Tempo gated me a career first - they refused me a credential to cover a game. I'd began to wonder if anybody would over pay me this compliment. It was on my professional bucket list.

I'd applied in good time to cover Tuesday's game, between the Tampa and the Indiana Fever. The request is done through an online portal, and then you want.

"Hi there," Monday's refusal e-mail

began.

"Due to a large number of media re- quests for Tempo vs. Fever (August 18), we are unable to accommodate your media credential request at this time.

Thank you for understanding, Tempo PR."

I gather that means they didn't have enough space. That would be more plausible if they'd hold the game in corner Lane. Taneshbaum's pool house rather than the Scottsbush. Anise, which has hosted an NBA final.

Along with every Canadian journalist who's ever laid on eyes on a basketball, every Mooney American, a goggle of Ariana, Almana, South American, da- roptune and about a million drones from ESPN, I was at that final. I remem- ber it finding full, but not bursting. These were empty chairs.

Also, I'd understand if I worked for a newspaper published out of my garage, or if the Globe never covered the team. But neither is the case.

That leads me to suspect this wasn't a space, outlet or coverage issue. It could be a me issue.

I've written a couple of things about the WNBA recently and - I'm putting my hand up - they weren't what you'd consider marketing copy. Nowhere in there did I say that it is your duty to support this struggling startup valued in the hundreds of millions.

Both pieces hinged on Fever guard Sophie Cunningham's take on trans- gender participation in women's sport. I believe Cunningham has a point.

So it's possible that in addition to be- ing insufficiently supportive of the fi- nancial objectives of the Tempo com- ership group, it's also possible that I am an enemy of progress. If there was an ad live tribunal or struggle session I could apologize to, I wouldn't, but I would ask them whether they get floor seats on Tuesday night. Those are great seats.

I am keenly aware that no one owes me an invite to anything. I'm taking up space that could be filled more usefully by franchise cheerleaders or, better still, cold to paying customers. Excepting a low newspaper types, just about every contemporary sports correspondent is either working for or beholden to the teams, leagues and carcans they cover. W REPLY, R13

Sophie Cunningham grows

used to being in the spotlight

RACHEL BRADY

Sophie Cunningham is used to it to now - the mix of cheers and seers she gets when she enters a WNBA game on the road. She was ready for it again in Toronto Tues- day night, when she faced the Tempo.

She's not an all-star, but the reserve guard for the Indiana Fever has become one of the WNBA's most recognized players. She has 7.8 million followers on TikTok, and 3.4 million on Instagram. The 30-year-old has also been a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, a podcaster and a ring girl for UPC. She's a player who has absorbed the kind of hard feels that make nightly sports highlight shows, and dished out plenty too, usu- ally in defence of her teammates. She superstar Caitlin Clark.

Earlier this season, Cunningham had the on-court finger point that inspired thousands of metres.

Almost a month ago, she publicly ex- pressed her belief that biological males should not compete in girls and women's sports. Her comments attracted some new fans from those who agree. She's also received hatred from those who felt it was anti-teams.

"Now I'm a little bit used to it. You

kind of miss the peace and quiet. You miss being able to just come in and play. I'm sure you guys will hear a lot of boys and a lot of cheers tonight," Cun- ningham said to a large media scrum in Toronto during the Fever's morning shontarsound.

Her outspokenness has prompted some fans to show up at games wearing T-shirts about transgender women par- ticipating in women's sports - and in some cases security have told them to cover up. The WNBA has faced growing scrutiny to make a public position on the issue, despite the fact a transgender woman has never played in the league.

The real best Fever arrived in Toronto to play the Tempo at a time when Cun- ningham and her team are making headlines nightly. Some think she's a dirty player. Others love her home do- agree with her views, others consider her leave and unspektaerts.

"I'm blessed to be in the position I'm in," Cunningham said. "That's what sports in: eradism, competitiveness. A lot of people shy away from that. I think that's what it's all about. That's the fun."

She's averaging 8.7 points and a, a re- bounds a game, and doesn't claim to be something she isn't.

Dez and Dot make their debut as Tempo mascots

Toronto put a spin on tortoise and bare fable with mascot unveiling Tuesday vs. Indiana

RACHEL BRADY

Top secret auditors, costume fittings and rehearsals all led to Tuesday night, when the Toronto Tempo finally revealed not one but two official mascots. But the shopping battle and Dot the factor Hate.

Toronto's WNBA team introduced the costume duo for the Dot time Tuesday during a theatrical moment at halftime of their game against the Indiana Fever.

The team was going for a new spin on the tortoise and the bare fable. This put a mascot to represent steady and swift, a nod to tempo, and the importance of changing pace.

"There's no better representation of tempo than the tortoise and the bare, like that juxtaposition," said Tempo chief marketing officer Whitney Ball. "And both species are native to Canada. That was really important to us that they felt generally Canadian."

So why wait for Game No. 1a to unveil the mascots? This wasn't always the plan.

The basketball club has had the mascots ready to go since the beginning of the season and initially wanted to reveal them at their preseason pop rally event in May. But they had so much new stuff to introduce already. Also basketball court, the three-roll players and coaches, so they chose to wait, build up anticipations, and let people speculate online about what the mascots might be. Even the players have been making pauses on the team's social media channels.

They chose to keep the mascots under escape until the right time. She had no good house at Northbank Arena on Tuesday against one of the leagues but not opponents.

They went to great lengths to keep it under escape until the reveal. The Tempo knew all about tasks, as their team name and logo looked out before their originally planned official rollout.

"We've tried to keep it as hash-bush as possible," said Jeff. "Apart from dancing and choreography, we've absolute a lot of character development with them over home calls, talking about what's their origin, their favourite foods, paltry pleasures? All so they can really get into character."

Clark shines in Fever's win over Tempo

Indiana hands Toronto its 11th-straight loss

RACHEL BRADY

As the Indiana Fever's team lost drove to Scottsbush across on Tuesday to play in Toronto against the Tempo for the first time, the visiting team's superstar Caitlin Clark saw fans on the streets of Canadian Nugent and wearing her jersey boots before he pull.

Since the Fever debated how's Clark first overall in 2016, the WMA's popularity has stopped, largely thanks to the once-in-a-lifetime talent. The league's more famous player would use many evidence of the Caitlin Clark at first inside Toronto's jam packed in, 800-700 yards, as he's been so staged the home-love Tempo can so on their highest profile night of an undue-belching debut season. Kelsey Mitchell, who Clark before the game called the best backcourt teammate who's who had, danced for 20 points in the 8/5 right victory, slapping the Tempo with an 18th straight loss. Fans - even those in harpanda Tempo wear - chased for Clark's deep thorn and flashy paans as she scored 20 points in her team's win.

It was a regular season game but felt like a major event. When the city was awarded a WMA in 2016, the team's team's Troop's ahead to when Clark would visit him. So a pro game press conference, she called about the snacks she's tried on her first visit to Toronto and told one reporter "I love your Canadian accent".

She had high praise for Toronto's support of the Tempo, for its all-star Marina Mahmy and coach Sandy Brookfield.

Adeed about the legacy she wanted to leave, Clark said it will be compelling people who never smoked. Women's basketball is hate in.

"I think that's a really cool

thing to bring people in that team to never experienced something that I've loved all my life," said Clark. "So I hope when I'm done, that's probably the Nugent thing that I'll probably look back on my career and be proud of, is just the amount of people that I've been able to bring in and enjoy the game that I've always loved, since I was a young kid."

Winners in nine of their latest 10 games, the play-off driving force are on an hefty, but not a very small victory by scoring 100 pts points in six consecutive games. Clark also suffered fourth last-

ers Conference player of the week instead, the seventh of her career. Tuesday's game had many of the things our frequently seen doing a visit from the Fever. The largest media contingent of the season, some tough fools on Clark, and the crowd emptying in a minor chance and booze every time the publishing fever guard tougher. Cunningham checked in or touched the ball. One fan held up a sign supporting the team rights, and there was an enormous direct. There was some good for Toronto but not enough for a win. Mahmy fell the way for Toronto

The Tempo, now doffing near the bottom of the league stand

ings, can never get the whole team on the court at once. Starting guard Julie Allimand is not again, as a starting centre Niana Schiltz. The injury situation has been the most challenging of coach Sandy Brookfield's career.

"It's hard when you're losing, I haven't lost the much my whole career," said Brookfield. "But you have to think of big picture. We know this was going to be a challenge - not quite the challenge if662/662 is going there - I didn't anticipate the injuries, but that's sport. What are you going to do? So just keep working."

A 'more confident' Huang returns to CPKC Women's Open on the upswing

A man Huang's CPKC Women's Open last year was a turning point in her golf career.

She missed the cut in Mississauga, Ont., as a 10-year-old.

"I wasn't really sure what I was doing with my life to be honest," Huang recalled. "I wasn't playing very well at the home. I'd missed four or five cuts in a row."

While her Canadian country woman Brooks Henderson changed to victory, Huang headed to the putting ground with caddie and coach Sean Burke.

"After I mean all the rest, he spent the weekend just working on my putting a lot. We also worked on speed things, alignment," Huang said.

"I definitely would say that with all of the practice and help I get in Mississauga, that really all fizzled what happened afterwards, which was really good."

Within the month, Huang had seen back-to-back tournaments with the Ladies European team.

The Vancouver teenager won again in May in Morocco, but her victory in the FII London Championship on Aug. 9 on the women's golf world debut.

At 87 years, nine months, and 60 days, Huang became the youngest player to win four LET titles, featuring the previous record held by New Zealand's Lydia Kerr at 89 years old. Huang also defeated world 500 of Clude's Plders at the FII London Championship, the English owl's home tournament.

So Huang returns to the CPKC Women's Open this year in a season different from the

"I'm definitely a lot more confident in my game," Huang said. "Last year when I played the Canadian Open, I had zero wins under my belt, and I was a rookie."

"The year second is no reason. I've played 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

The 1978s is medium. CPKC Women's Open begins Thursday and returns to Edmonton's Royal Marble Golf Club, where he was an amateur in 1979 for her second straight Canadian title.

Huang is part of a wave of emerging teenage golf talent in the 1980s, and has a larger 1980s. Aphrodisi (Doug, who 42) was the first amateur in last year's event in Mississauga, tying for 20th at four-

under.

That was the highest amateur finish since her victory in 1979. "Last year did kind of raise my expectations, knowing that I can perform and compete against the best in the world," Doug said.

"I definitely lost more confident and more comfortable out from drawing what to expect and playing in front of all the crowds again."

Doug, who has committed to Stanford University, was the first Canadian to win the U.S. Girls by nine Championships in 1978.

Doug also defeated her title in the Marble Amistose Open in May and tied for 19th in the U.S. Women's Open in June.

Both Huang and Doug earned greater champions into the CPKC Women's Open, as did 10-year-old Clancy Ian of Langley, R.C.

Ian made it back-to-back wins for Canadians at the U.S. Girls by nine Championships this year this's also committed to Stanford.

"The group is doing things that have not been done before, like winning U.S. juniors and putting into U.S. Opens at a young age," said Ian F. Canadi's American coach Jeff McDonald.

"I'm getting asked a lot of questions from college coaches and people in general. What is going on in Canada right now?"

Defending champion Henderson of Smiths Falls, Ont., will be joined in Edmonton by fellow CPCA Four Canadians Mando-Jones Leblanc of Sherbrooke, Que., and Mississauga's Savannah Gecard.

Canadian Golf Hall of Fame?

Alexa Sharp of Hamilton, Vancouver's Cook John, Calgary's Tiller Guggen and Saint-Guenin of Galkville, Ont., were sponsor in 1980 as were amateurs Laenne Kerr of Fancy, R.C., Toronto's Aetna Scoreline, Chery Park of Red Deer, Alta., Michelle King of Richmond Hill, Ont., and three-time Canadians junior women's champion Shanna Ian of Maple, Ont.

Huang chose the pro-judicially "I never really liked school to be, am with," she said.

That meant starting on the European tour, with the LPGA re-opening golfers to be 40 or running 40 to become a member.

The combination of loneliness and on-course retraging made her question, her decision to turn you last year, but life eventually improved both on and off the course, she said.

"When I played a little bit better and started to gain a little bit more confidence, and made a few more friends, everything just came back together, which helped me get my first win on tour," Huang said.

Huang's father Alex will caddie for her in Edmonton. He was on her bag for her four LET wins.

Open her arrival in Alberta's capital for the 1980s, and 1980s for London victory, Huang was surprised at her reception at a local club where she went to practice.

"I got recognized a lot, and it was really cool," she said. "They were telling me they wanted the front round on TV. I'm really glad they were able to see that."

She talks about playing a secondary role to fever stars like Clark, Kelsey Mitchell and Alquin Roemer on a team that had won eight of its last 10 and 10 driving hard for playoff processing. But Cunningham added her time in the spotlight this year year has made life different.

"I can't really go anywhere without people. - I don't want to say bothering because what people are so friendly and they just want to meet you - but you also have to keep your head on a sweet too, depending where you're at," she said. "But I'm blessed to be on this platform in the position I'm in."

Cunningham, who said she's a first-time in Canada on the day, said she prophesied a series of a Toronto restaurant when she asked for stalk sauce. She also made a TikTok value in Toronto with teammates Caitlin Clark and Lena Hall of the three sampling various Canadian snacks, from all dressed and herding chips to Coffee Crisp bars and maple cookies.

Cunningham called Toronto Tempo for Marina Mahmy. "I determined I am and that despite being on a co-game losing minute, the expansion team always broke like it is moving game."

The Tempo have been plagued by injuries and sit in 10th place among the WMA's 10 teams.

However, when I came up the fifth place Fever Tuesday night, they finally came out of their top players back, Britney Hales-Malony's other half of the million-dollar Toronto backcourt.

"Where you have a count that's really trying to find you down by, that's sometimes the hardest team to play," said Cunningham of the Tempo. "Because they have engines that aren't going to quit."

The clubs used to be cheapish about this. Not any more. So if the government of the United States can bar its haters in the press, why shouldn't the local half-club adopt the Free Hapesh Pentagon 'R' model?

The people running teams now seem to believe that journalism should work like the U2F - nobody is going to tell you what to say, but there are limits.

There are such limits. One is a while, an either-off say. You can that 'club' (jewel incompetent) is how you want to get off 'Everything else is a free-door zone.'

Mostly, what I wanted to do does was thank the Toronto Tempo. One can lose sight of the point of doing this job, which is upsetting the right people.

I'm disappointed to miss the game, which I'm sure was fun. I trust that whoever made the cut ahead of me had only nice things to say about what went on there, and got the opinion of the team.

I'm not sure, why is not only feel good about the occasion they hosted, but that they were able to outcast maximum value from the hosting.

If there was any negativity around Cunningham's presence, I expect no one had the guilt to do it around the merchandise, please, where it might impede commerce. If that negativity was expressed where it could be seen by children or other sensitive minds, I trust it was the completely endowed sort of negativity, and not the other kind.

In future, I hope all Tempo games are as well reviewed as a Soviet authority.

I'm sure that I found together by a like-minded sense of purpose, everyone will do their best to increase shareholder value in this essential local enterprise. Of be cheering along from home.

Wilkerson, Humana-Paredes seek Montreal beach volleyball three-peat

Toronto duo were the first Canadian women to claim an Olympic beach volleyball medal in Paris in 2024

DONNA SPEICER

Home court has been good for Melissa Humana-Paredes and Brando Wilkerson.

The Canadian beach volleyball duo seeks a Montreal three-peat case (FIFA Beach Pro Tournament starting Wednesday at First, least 10-years).

Humana-Paredes and Wilkerson were in Montreal early to their partnership in 2024, and again in 2025.

The latter tournament felt to form the LeMaster's infatuation of their Olympic silver medal in Paris in 2024, when the beach pro tour didn't have a stop in Montreal.

"It was like the Olympics had happened the week before," the team said in 2024. "If I felt like the energy, the homecoming, the welcoming of the fans was in some every game.

"I will get you whammy from it," said the Pancho and Wilkerson, both from Toronto, were the first Canadian women to claim an Olympic beach volleyball medal.

"They should walk four-turns into Pontiac Silva Ramos and Alhuella 'Dada,'" isame in a three-set final at Elifei Newer Stadium.

life blocks, a force at the out. Currently, medical math in the world, the Canadian chaos a second tournament won this season after prevailing in Ontario, Canada, in May.

With no Olympic Games or world championship in 2020, Humana-Paredes says Montreal was strided in red on their completion calendar.

"Montreal is our highlight event," she said. "We have a lot of hunger and motivation now to kind of come back to where we started the season.

"It's extremely motivating to play on home and 'We always

want to do well for ourselves, our team, our country, our federation. Back-to-back goals, we obviously want a third. So this is going to be a big one for us."

Humana-Paredes's hip injury in June at an AFF event in Miami was a hiccup for the team this season.

They went 14 in Gstaad, New Zealand, and didn't play the next event in the 48 inners. They reached the quarter-finals earlier this month in Hamburg, Germany.

"We started the season very strong, a testament to a strong off-season and a strong pro-season," Humana-Paredes said. "The hip injury just kind of was a little bit of a setback. It was really just kind of my body communicating to me: maybe we just take a little bit of a new right now and try and prepare for the latter half of the season," which is now.

"It's come back to much better and so much faster than I thought it would. I'm feeling really really good. It couldn't be better time.

Humana-Paredes, 26, and Wilkerson, 24, counted this year with coaches Marne Sush and Guilherme (Flape) Tittnis, who helped them in the Olympic podium in 2024.

"They've also returned to Los Angeles as their training base," it ends coaches at Pepperdine University.

The Canadian offseason to Brazil in 2024 is main under coach Brando de Portas. They soon eliminated in the 2025 world championship quarter-finals.

"This year it was a strong back top-fifths' again and a churning of our new old teams," Humana-Paredes said.

"We got back with our old coaching staff from the Paris run and so it took like a reunion, but also it feels like we're learning new things again and putting new things in place."

Paredes donates face for everything she makes to "Open One Carbon Zone," which funds climate solutions.

"People can donate along with me, either match my pledge or just donate whatever they can," she said. "I'm hoping that we're going to reach his core."

Norway's Klaveness slams Infantino's FIFA for firing top executive in 'management by fear'

GRAHAM DUNBAR GINZEN, SWITZERLAND

Norway's soccer federation president on Sunday accused FIFA of fair tactics for the removal of a senior official who publicly opposed FIFA leader Ganaa Infantino's two withdrawn World Cup self-off plan.

The Klaveness, who has headed the Norwegian Football Federation since 2022, told The Associated Press that the firing of FIFA's chief operating officer Kette Lamour was "unacceptable" and urged other senior leaders to resist potentially damaging orders.

Lamour's visit late Monday came 17 days after his statement in AP criticizing Infantino's FIFA's fellow person equity team of the world's world law-dream later.

"Now he is thrown out and we are supposed to move on. It's unacceptable, it's management by fear," Klaveness told the AP as a telephone interview, describing Lamour as "the best football administration I have ever met."

Lamour's statement in AP gave FIFA leadership and the administration to rest almost to order to see how are not in the interests of football," Klaveness added, especially targeting FIFA secretary general Mattina Gustafsson.

Lamour's visit at Nether Norway internal former soccer players, a judge in Oslo and an elected executive committee member at European soccer body FIFA who has built on her country's long-held reputation as a champion of good government, was one of the 'newest government's head last week called on Infantino to escape and has backed a London-based NCC's formal complaint to FIFA office investigators about his political

ties to U.S. President Donald Trump.

Lamour was a long-time colleague of Infantino, first as senior officials at FIFA from 2007 to 2018, on his campaign team to be elected FIFA president in 2018, then moving two years ago from FIFA to oversee much of FIFA's operations in Zurich.

With a reputation among the most trusted executives in the often madly world of global soccer politics, Lamour's general criticisms of Infantino's leadership intensified a crisis for the FIFA president.

A backlash by UEFA, the Asian football confederation and North America soccer body CONCALIF was provoked by a secretary plan to call future World Cup profits to threaten led by Joshua Kushner.

A FIFA's billion investment to take a 20 per cent stake in a FIFA commercial spin-off was to fund 40% of 1982-2017 debt to such of its six national member federations. They already effectively own the non-profit soccer body, which has multibillion dollar reserves, and would have had a total September deal due to 2022.

Lamour's statement on July 20 spoke of FIFA staff being "absolutely" by Infantino's lack of openness over the now-failed side and how they "deserve better than a stronger and intimidative."

The friend's executive called on soccer leaders worldwide "to make the right decision" and signed off. "If that means it has my job, then so be it. I will understand and respect that decision. At least I'll keep well tonight."

"This is a firing situation. It's not a resignation," Klaveness said of Lamour's 2018, suggesting even down by Gustafsson, "do exactly being pressured by the president."

FIFA didn't respond to a request for comment on Klaveness's remarks.

In a statement, FIFA staff "faudra Kettis for his two years of service and wishes him the best of luck for the future. No further comment will be made on the matter."

Lamour did not immediately reply to an e-mail seeking comment Tuesday.

"His statement was necessary to kill the project," Klaveness said of Lamour's intervention. "He said something that was obvious, that was very important that someone within the staff told us the story to find we knew it was not FIFA, as such, but one person."

Infantino called a meeting with senior management senior Lamour in Kduck, Morocco. After that, had a meeting, a 15-16 statement apologized for errors and said those managers who attended "traditional their full support" of Infantino's presidency.

"We all got reports in Morocco, we know it's a management of fear," Klaveness said. "It's not in football, but one person."

Until the uproar over Infantino's FIFA forward Enterprise" proposal, he seemed sure to be re-aligned an approved next year in Morocco for a fourth and final term in office through 2025. The deadline is Nov 10 for challenges to ensure the control.

Infantino was appointed by FIFA in 2019 to spread advising FIFA to reforms, to fullest from corruption outside provided by U.S. federal investigation. That group's recommendations limiting FIFA president's 2022 top-fifths' position, finding their executive powers and patronage off have remained under Infantino.

Venus Williams receives U.S. Open singles wild card, with final spot possibly being held for Serena

BRIAN MAHONEY NEW YORK

Venus Williams was given a U.S. Open singles wild card on Tuesday and the evening when a sleeping one on their perhaps in one bar enter Serena wants to join her.

Shape Stephen, the 2007 U.S. Open champion, was one of six silver women who won the $100 million and the U.S. tennis Association said the final one is still to be announced.

"But almost certainly would go to Serena Williams if she decides she wants to return to the tournament at 44."

Venus Williams received a wild card last year, returning to the Grand Slam event she won three for the first time since 2022. The 40-year-old has become the oldest entrant in singles at the tour-

nament since Renee Richards played at 40 in 1988, according to the International Tennis Federation.

She has continued to play some singles matches and this week gained her to be their first doubles tournament together since the 2022 U.S. Open. They last Monday at the Cincinnati Open in a month before their against Marta Kostrak and Peyron Stearns.

The senior planned to play at Wimbledon but had to withdraw after Sevens is injured her later in her singles match. That marked her first time playing singles since the 2022 U.S. Open, and she indicated afterward that she hoped to keep competing if healthy.

Headlining the wild-card recipients on the men's side were 20-year-old Gaël Montilla, a past U.S. Open semi-finalist

who is set to play his final Grand Slam tournament before retiring, and Australian About Peppin, who spent break 10 years in 2024 on the way to the fourth round.

One spot is also being held among the eight men's wild cards. Sam Wormida, the 2007 champion at Darling Meadows who at 40 is playing his final season, could be a candidate for that.

Also, receiving women's wild cards were Gaël Young, Neil Lee, Renee Brantmeier, Tom Goulda, Linda Luepqua and Tarlali Preston.

Biennieny jokes

wife urged him to rely in Texas City as she recovered after shooting

DAVE SKRETTA, UT. JOSEPH, MD.

Kansas City offensive co-ordinator Eric Biennieny asked Tuesday that he had the blessing of his wife, Mia, to return to the team after she was shot at their Virginia home because, well, "I know I was driving her and a hunch in my family members early in the time."

Mia was shot the evening of July 10, and the couple's 27-year-old son, Elijah, was arrested. Eric left the team right away to help his family through the clinic, and he returned to a camp last week ahead of a procrastor loss to the Kano.

"First and foremost, yes, she's on a great road to recovery. Yes, she's doing great," Biennieny said of his wife, speaking to reporters for the first time since she was shot in the hospital with multiple wounds. "It is one of the main reasons that I am back here, because of her recovery, she's truly a soldier. She's a saint, and it's been inevitable to watch."

Biennieny was never far from camp, even while he was back home in Adoburn, Va. He was able to watch streams of practice from Missouri Western State University, and he was often controversial into team meetings before and little more.

At one point, he called general manager Burt Tisdale, who he knew was seated beside coach Judy Reid - and told him to give big half the phone. Biennieny proceeded to remind Reid to get on one of the players for a seemingly ninety-day-aching point.

"I was yelling at the screen, yelling at players, yelling at coaches - What the hell are we doing?" I'm yelling at myself. Why would you put that play on?" Biennieny said, smiling. "At the end of the day, I was making sure I was keeping up with what was going on."

At the same time, he was driving Mia and the rest of the fourth (1987).

"So she was like, 'You have my blessing to know,'" Eric said. "We're not listening to you."

Elijah Biennieny has been charged with malicious wounding, the use of a firearm in commission of a 16-year-old discharge of a firearm inside a dwelling. His wife, who was 18 years old, was pending a mental health evaluation.

While heads and demanding, Biennieny is universally beloved within the Kansas City facility room. He was part of coaching staffs that helped K.C. reach these Super Roads and was one, and he helped to test the foundation for the dynasty to come.

DEATHS

LLOYD JOHN ROBERTSON

Lloyd John Robertson, 30, a beloved and distinguished voice in the lives of Canadian for more than four decades. And peacefully at home on the evening of August 4, 2018, surrounded by the love of his family.

Born in Stanford, Ontario, Lloyd was the younger of two sons of Lilly Francis and George Henderson-Robertson. In 1925, he married his Shufford sweetheart, Nancy Garrett. On July 9, 2018, they celebrated the remarkable milestone of their 9th-wedding anniversary.

Lloyd's work with Nancy and their four daughters, Nancy and Herlyn (Kate), Susan (Karen), and Jack (Robert and Nancy (Stan), and Lisa Robertson (Paul Ruff), never grandchildren, since a 1928 Heirle (Roger Creel), Cameron John Heirle, Max Martin, Sharon Martin (Harrison Brown), David (and Earl White), Rebeca (James Scott), and Donald "Raymond" Scotty, and his great-grandson, Charlie Robertson Creel. He is also married to his niece, Norma Harkinson of Scott (No. 1966), and his niece, Emma Lee Prescott and Mary Susan Robertson, daughters of his late brother, Gordon.

To his grandchildren, Lloyd was strongly known as "Spa-Spa", after his first granddaughter couldn't quite master "granddair." In Lloyd's delight, the same deals.

Lloyd began his husband-joining career in 1922 of CTS-Mark in his hometown of Shufford, Ontario, before joining CTS. In 1925, he anchored The National Home 1925 to 1927 before joining CTS. When he co-anchored the national memorial with the graft and broadsle Nancy Rock in 1925, Lloyd became Chief News Anchor and Senior News Editor of CTS National News. For more than four decades, he was a trusted and reassuring presence in the living rooms of the nation, a familiar face and voice, an anchor of calm, an uncertain forest.

Lloyd earned the historic dedication of being North America's longest-serving national network mean and/or and was effectively crowned "Anchor for Life" by two hours. A recipient of multiple honorary doctorates and the industry's highest socialistic, Lloyd, whose formal education ended with high school, was a remarkably appropriate man of his generation, a proud feminist and champion of LGBTQ+ rights who helped open doors for women and marginalized voices in a profession that was once overwhelmingly made. Yet for all his studies, Lloyd knows how himself too seriously, wearing tools to work for slippers to the bank. See half the self-confidence to be of interest, appearing on the face and in sketches where he and his two were often the built of the jobs. But he could also speak with courage and compassion about deeply personal objects, including mental health. By sharing his mother's story, Lloyd helped break the silence and stigma that had not often had material illness hidden in the shadows.

Over more than six decades in broadcasting, Lloyd caused Southern Canadian local elections and the death of the defining events of his time, including the recent landing, Olympic Games, royal occasions and state funerals. He stopped down from the CTS National News and/or back in 2015, but continued with the end of 2016. However, a month to generation of aspiring journalists, and memorialized similar presence on Canadian television well and the eagle on, a testament to his belief that experience, curiosity and a love of the conflict of always have an expiration date.

Beyond the memoirers, Lloyd was a grander, having the complexity of just and libelous, and the ability to stand out of a standby at his feet, spying Canadian Proof Origin with Nancy on a doctor's the lake or building a girl over "a new show" they just found called Sanford.

Lloyd was deeply committed to giving back in 1926, when cancer forced Terry Fox to end his non-citizens' foundation of Hope. Lloyd helped bring Terry's remarkable story into the hands and homes of Canadians. As host of CTS'sleon the true condition, Lloyd helped raise the children for cancer research and story Terry's message of hope across the country. He later served as honorary chairperson of the Terry Fox firm.

He was also a familiar and trusted person in support of Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children, leading its annual telethon for 4 years. His lifelong commitment to children, families and community was recognized in 1927 when he was named an Officer of the Globe of Canada, with the citation specifically noting his charitable work supporting the Terry Fox firm and the Hospital for Sick Children telethon.

His family was large, stretching from coast to coast, not houndling blood, but by the countless several who welcomed him into their homes and borders in many ways, his extended family, Canada was never simply the country he called home, it was a country he believed in, argued for, and spent his life helping to shape.

The family extends heartfelt thanks to the caregiving teams of Home Political Relations, Caregivers Initiative, and Ontario Health of Home, and to the health-care professionals of North Carolina Hospital, Princess Margaret Carson Centre, and the Golden Cancer Centre at Sunnydale and Health Sciences Centre. Their compassionate care, kindness, and reassuring support meant so much to Lloyd and his family.

Respecting Lloyd's wishes, a private memorial service will be held in his honour.

The family warmly welcomes the public to this statistics, where friends, colleagues and admirers can gather to say goodbye and celebrate a life so richly loved because, "That's the kind of Life Lloyd Has".

BARB HARRIS

ATHLETE, PHILANTHROPIST, 93

FIELD HOCKEY PIONEER WAS A PROMINENT BUILDER OF THE SPORT IN B.C.

She represented Canada as a star player at international tournaments and later became a coach, administrator and key organizer of events in and around Vancouver

TOW-MANTOON

Until she attended her first practice, Barb Harris had never held a field hockey stick.

A farm girl newly arrived on the University of British Columbia campus, she sought a sporting outlet as relief from studies. When she learned the field hockey team had a travel budget, she decided to try out for the sport.

Ms. Harris, who has died at 61, went on to play for teams representing Canada, as well as becoming one of the most prominent builders of her sport in her home province.

Her university coach was May Brown, who built a powerhouse variety team before the second state of Vancouver's athletic grounds led her to launch a successful political career on a notorious event. By her second year, Ms. Harris was a star on the score by roster, playing right inner and center forward.

While no hockey was Canada's national sport and the women played on grass-scarred a cohort of romans, Ms. Harris displayed a goalscorer's hunger familiar to anyone who ever cheered for the likes of roster. Never.

"Because I didn't start out slowly and learn this is the way you should do this that or that shot," she once said. "all I wanted to do was put the ball in the grab."

Ms. Harris was one of its players selected for the Canadian team for the international women's field hockey tournament in Amsterdam in 1992. Each of the women had to raise at least 3,000 to fund the trip to the tournament, doing so through rallies, dances, babysitting and collecting empty bottles.

The squad, all from Vancouver, at the time the sport's centre in Canada, then started England before the tournament, during which they suffered a humiliating turn low in an exhibition match against the Globetrotters,

Barb Harris was one of 18 players selected for the Canadian team for the international women's field hockey tournament in Amsterdam in 2003. Four years later in Baltimore, Ms. Harris was named the team's captain. 1920-1929/1930/1930

a team of experienced English international players.

In the Dutch capital, they defeated France, 1-0, and Switzerland, 2-0, though they would fail to score against Ireland (2-0), Scotland (3-0) and Australia (4-0). They held off the home town Savvarkes nearly to the 30 and whistle, losing 1-0 to the Netherlands on a goal scored just three minutes from the end at Wagener Stadium.

Four years later in Baltimore, Ms. Harris was named captain of the team. Canada again struggled, losing 2-0 to Australia, 4-0 to China and 3-0 to the Netherlands before drawing bottom road, 1-0, and France, 2-0.

After her playing days ended, Ms. Harris became a coach and

administrator. She organized the field hockey tournament in the Vancouver suburb of Burnaby, with the second year, Canada from the Games in 1973.

She was a key organizer when Vancouver played host to the women's world field hockey championship in 1976, failed at the time as the largest women's tournament ever held on the continent. Ms. Harris launched the 1980 Club several years earlier to help cover the costs to build the championship of the International Federation of Women's Hockey Associations on the campus where she had first learned the sport.

Barbara Elizabeth Hart was born in Burnaby on April 25, 1926, to Grace Elizabeth Storey and

Cecil Gordon Hart, a salesman whose future occupations included camera companies, sawmill owner and trailer park owner. Her parents divorced in 1981.

A teacher by training, she taught math, English and physical education at Burnaby South Secondary, where she also coached the girls' basketball, volleyball and softball teams, as well as grass hockey, a sport for which she met surprisingly had a special affection.

"The players must think every minute of the 75 minutes they play," she told the Vancouver Sun in 1979, "we just when they got the ball."

While furthering her education in England, "Britain is traditionally the queen of field hockey," she once said.

es," she once said, she met a fellow Canadian university women's field sailor at 60 to 70, near Nottingham. In 1976, she married Burton Gregg Harris, who was born on a farm in Southeastern Ontario. He went on to become an aeronautical engineer, working on the Apollo program for RACE.

Three years after their marriage, they embarked on a ra-mouth, 1000,000-kilometre journey in a Volkswagen camper through 60 countries on five continents. They later visited the other two continents.

She was inducted into the Field Hockey Canada Hall of Fame (2001) and the Burnaby Sports Hall of Fame (2002). She was named the 1980 Canada Hall of Fame earlier this year.

She was perhaps best known in her hometown for organizing the annual they live San Francisco and the 1980.

Her 25 years gift was the largest donation ever received by the field hockey program at her alma mater. She made the contribution in 2010 to aid the program in recovering from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ms. Harris died at her Burnaby home on July 21. She lives a grandson, Matthew Harris, a brother, & Gordon Hart, and a sister, Jasmine Robinson. She was professional for her husband, who died in 1994 at age of 86, and by her daughter, Gayle Elizabeth, later Harris, a children's librarian in the Vancouver suburb of Surrey who also died in 1998, aged 44.

Ms. Harris's many philanthropy endeavours included supporting research at the B.C. Children's Hospital on Living QT Syndrome, the heart disease that is related to her daughter. She also donated $100,000 to launch the Gayle Harris Memorial Education Fund, which offers grants to library staff in Surrey to further their education.

MUSICIAN, 109

Ozarks fiddler made her Grand Ole Opry debut at 99

Violet Hensley, who grew up in Arkansas learning from her father, here to carve and play a fiddle, and whose nearly 60-year performing career reached its peak at age 99, where she defends at the Grand Ole Opry, died on Aug. 7 at her home in Yellville, Ark., in the Ozarks. He was one.

Her daughter Sandra Flagg, a guitarist, confirmed the death.

Ms. Hensley made her distinction between a fiddle and a violin, even though they are essentially the same instrument. "If you can read music, you play the violin," she told The Tulsa World in 1987. "I can't read music, so I play the violin."

By the time she turned 99, Mr. Hensley had performed old-time mountain music - not bluegrass, which she deemed too many - at the latest Friday, 1987, and was in Bozance, Mo. For more than 30 years, played on radio stations and at schools, recorded at least two albums, one of them, with family members, called Old-Time Handovers, and appeared on TV programs like Captain Hargrave, The Beverly Hillbikes and Love With Bugs and Jackie Lee.

body you're not"

She performed twice more at the Opry, in 2007 and in 2008, the trial she was inducted into the National Fiddler Hall of Fame in Tulsa, Okla.

Mary Violet Hensley was born on Oct. 25, 1926, in Maine, Ark., near Mount Lks. In the central western part of the state. Her 24 Ohio College Washington Bounties was a farmer, and her mother, Sara (Springer) Hensley, who ran the home, died when Violet was 6.

She observed her father making fiddles and, at 6, began to build her own, spinning, playing and shaping wood that she found nearby. She had begun playing at 6.

"I wanted to play the fiddle just because no didn't have anything else to do," she told KIPP, the public television station in Kansas City, Mo. "We didn't have television or radio, and that played, and I guess it struck me that I wanted to play."

After she married Adam Hensley in 1978, and began to raise their nine children, she stopped whistling and performing (she also sang and singed) for 27 years until she is estranged at the 1980s, winning second place in the Turkey Test Board from 40 Yellville.

In 1997, she began her long association with Silver Dollar City, where she fiddled outage and demonstrated her fiddle making skills at a radio booth.

"She wasn't simply one of

America's most respected fiddle makers and musicians," the drama park said as a statement. "She was at the heart of an Ozark tradition that connected generations to their special place."

While performing at Silver Dollar City around 1996 with her son-in-law Tim Nelson, a banjo player and guitarist, she ran an other fiddler, Katie Ellis, whose band was also playing at the park. Ms. Hensley's institution in No. 1, in 1996, was a 1996-1997-1998-1999-1999-2000-2001-2002-2003-2004-2005-2006-2007-2008-2009-2010-2011-2012-2013-2014-2015-2016-2017-2018-2019-2020-2021-2022-2023-2024-2025-2026-2027-2028-2029-2030-2031-2032-2033-2034-2035-2036-2037-2038-2039-2040-2041-2042-2043-2044-2045-2046-2047-2048-2049-2050-2051-2052-2053-2054-2055-2056-2057-2058-2059-2060-2061-2062-2063-2064-2065-2066-2067-2068-2069-2070-2071-2072-2073-2074-2075-2076-2077-2078-2079-2080-2081-2082-2083-2084-2085-2086-2087-2088-2089-2090-2091-2092-2093-2094-2095-2096-2097-2098-2099-2100

"She was a one-to-a-million fiddler who made an impact on everyone who got to hear her," Ms. Ellis said in an interview.

On trips to 1996, Ms. Hensley in Yellville, Mo. Ellis added, "She taught what I was getting wrong, and I paid more attention to how to play like her."

Before a concert around 1996 at the Rock House Center for the Arts in South Spring, Mo., that was in 1996, the 1996-1997-1998-1999-2000-2001-2002-2003-2004-2005-2006-2007-2008-2009-2010-2011-2012-2013-2014-2015-2016-2017-2018-2019-2020-2021-2022-2023-2024-2025-2026-2027-2028-2029-2030-2031-2032-2033-2034-2035-2036-2037-2038-2039-2040-2041-2042-2043-2044-2045-2046-2047-2048-2049-2050-2051-2052-2053-2054-2055-2056-2057-2058-2059-2060-2061-2062-2063-2064-2065-2066-2067-2068-2069-2070-2071-2072-2073-2074-2075-2076-2077-2078-2079-2080-2081-2082-2083-2084-2085-2086-2087-2088-2089-2090-2091-2092-2093-2094-2095-2096-2097-2098-2099-2100

She added to Ms. Flagg, Ms. Hensley leaves the other children, 12 grandchildren, 16, great-grandchildren, 16, great-grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren.

She had been a great grandchild of the husband died in 1997. Four of their sons performed her.

▌ 精选核心专题深度思想论证 (In-Depth Dialectical Monograph)

专题一： 《主权的算法化：特朗普关税暂停与贸易霸权的权力逻辑》

1. 现实困境深描（The Concrete Dilemma）

在加美贸易谈判的关键时刻，特朗普政府通过《10号关税法》第10条规定的临时关税暂停机制[F1_10-11]，在原定生效前两小时宣布暂停三天，并以“文件完成最终手续”为由掩盖协议内容缺失[F1_3-4]。这一行为暴露了主权决断权的单边主义滥用（施米特《政治的概念》），通过程序正义的形式操纵（哈贝马斯《交往行动理论》）实现权力博弈的不对称优势。加拿大总理卡尼的谨慎声明[F1_14-16]进一步表明，临时性治理逻辑（本雅明《历史哲学论纲》）正在侵蚀永久性制度建构的合法性基础。

2. 博弈机制与话语策略剖析（Mechanisms & Discourse）

特朗普的关税暂停策略通过时间政治学（阿甘本《例外状态》）制造谈判缓冲，将权力博弈隐藏在“临时协议”的模糊性中[F1_9-11]。这种话语策略通过信息不对称（福柯《规训与惩罚》）操纵公众视野，使得加拿大在谈判中始终处于被动回应的位置。更值得注意的是，特朗普在声明中提及“伟大‘基石XL输油管道’可能复活”[F1_12 🔍]，这一话语转移策略（齐泽克《意识形态的崇高客体》）通过地缘政治符号的操纵，将国内经济议题转化为对外强硬姿态的展示。

3. 历史思想资源的平等对话（Theoretical Resonance）

面对这种算法化主权的挑战，必须回到哈贝马斯的交往行动理论与福柯的权力微观物理学进行对话。哈贝马斯强调主权合法性必须建立在公共理性的对话基础上，而特朗普的临时性治理模式则通过单向权力输出摧毁了这一基础。福柯揭示的权力运作机制在关税暂停事件中得到了典型体现：权力不再通过直接强制展示，而是通过程序正义的形式操纵（如“文件完成最终手续”）实现对主体的规训。

4. 当代现实对理论的反向质询与新洞见（Contemporary Synthesis）

当下的主权算法化不仅挑战传统主权理论，也重新定义了正义的边界。罗尔斯《万民法》提出的正义原则在单边主义面前显得苍白，因为它无法应对程序正义的碎片化问题。更关键的是，这种临时性治理通过时间压缩（如关税暂停三天）制造了例外状态的常态化，使得民主决策的程序正义沦为形式。我们需要发展一种权力制衡的程序正义理论，它必须同时考虑： - 临时性治理的合法性边界（回应本雅明对历史进步的批判） - 信息不对称下的权力制衡机制（超越福柯对规训社会的单向理解） - 地缘政治多极化下的主权协商机制（避免施米特“敌友二元论”的极端化）

专题二： 《数字主权的幽灵：外国干预与加拿大分离主义公投的算法战争》

1. 现实困境深描（The Concrete Dilemma）

加拿大研究人员通过“密码AI”技术识别出俄罗斯“普兰达网络”对分离主义公投的虚假信息干预[F2_21-23]，这一事件暴露了数字主权的脆弱性与民主程序的技术化风险。阿尔伯塔省省长史密斯的承认[F2_21 🔍]本身就是一种权力话语操纵：它将公投的合法性问题转化为外部干预的安全问题，从而掩盖了加拿大内部政治经济结构性矛盾。更关键的是，这种外国干预通过算法化的信息操纵（如“密码AI”技术）实现了对公众舆论的隐形控制，使得公投结果可能沦为技术霸权的傀儡。

2. 博弈机制与话语策略剖析（Mechanisms & Discourse）

外国干预的算法战争通过情感操纵（齐泽克《意识形态的视觉转向》）实现对民族认同的碎片化。魁北克人党领袖弗拉姆孔东通过时间政治学（如“特朗普任期结束后”[F3_27 🔍]）操纵公投时间表，将公投的合法性问题转化为地缘政治风险管理的问题。这种话语策略通过未来不确定性的制造，使得公投的主权话语沦为权力博弈的筹码。研究人员使用的“密码AI”技术本身就是一种技术霸权的工具：它通过数据分析的客观性假象，掩盖了权力在信息操纵中的主观性角色。

3. 历史思想资源的平等对话（Theoretical Resonance）

面对这种算法战争，必须回到安德森的“想象的共同体”理论与曼纽尔·卡斯特的“网络化社会”理论进行对话。安德森强调民族认同的想象性建构，而“普兰达网络”则通过算法化的信息操纵，将这种想象性转化为操纵性。卡斯特揭示的网络空间权力结构在加拿大分离主义公投中得到了典型体现：数字主权的脆弱性使得民主程序沦为技术霸权的实验场。

4. 当代现实对理论的反向质询与新洞见（Contemporary Synthesis）

当下的算法战争不仅挑战传统主权理论，也重新定义了民主的边界。罗尔斯《公共理性》在数字化操纵面前显得无能为力，因为它无法应对算法操纵的隐形性。更关键的是，这种算法战争通过情感操纵制造了认同政治的碎片化，使得民主决策的程序正义沦为形式。我们需要发展一种数字时代的民主理论，它必须同时考虑： - 算法透明度与公众参与（回应哈贝马斯对公共领域的担忧） - 情感政治与认同建构的重构（超越安德森对“想象共同体”的静态理解） - 数字主权与地缘政治博弈的融合（避免卡斯特意义上的“网络霸权”）

1. 【加拿大-美国贸易协议的暧昧时刻：权力话语与肉身焦虑的撕裂】 [F1_1-20]

   • 事件简述：在最后一刻，特朗普宣布暂停对加拿大的新关税三天，并宣称已与加拿大达成贸易协议，但协议内容、生效条件及后续影响均未披露。加拿大总理卡尼仅以“仍有重要工作要完成”回应，强调需打造“更强大、更独立、更具竞争力的经济”。
   • 情感政治与伦理深思切入点：这一事件触动了加拿大社会对主权尊严与经济依附的集体焦虑。特朗普的“最后通牒”式权力话语（如“文件完成最终手续”的模糊条件）与卡尼的“技术官僚式”回应形成强烈反差，凸显制度理性如何将主权问题简化为文件流程，而民众的情感反弹（如民族主义高涨）则成为权力博弈的隐性筹码。

2. 【外国势力干预加拿大分离主义公投：数字殖民与主权幻象的崩溃】 [F2_21-23, F3_24-28]

   • 事件简述：阿尔伯塔省省长史密斯承认该省分离公投受到外国影响行动（如“普兰达网络”）的针对。加拿大研究人员通过“密码AI”技术识别出俄罗斯网络间谍活动，试图煽动分裂情绪。魁北克人党领袖弗拉姆孔东则宣布，若该党执政，将不会在特朗普任期内举行独立公投。
   • 情感政治与伦理深思切入点：外国势力通过算法操纵、虚假信息传播等手段，将加拿大的主权话语转化为数字殖民的工具。魁北克与艾伯塔省的分离主义情绪，既是对中央权力的反抗，也是对外部干预的无奈回应。这种“主权幻象”的崩溃，暴露了民族认同在全球化与数字化时代的脆弱性。

▌ 精选核心专题理性与情感辩证论证 (The Dialectic of Logos and Pathos Monograph)

专题一： 《“文件完成最终手续”：特朗普的权力话语与加拿大主权的技术化生存》

1. 制度理性架构解构（Deconstruction of Institutional Logos）

特朗普的贸易协议“暂停”并非基于具体的政策内容，而是基于其个人权力的“最后通牒”式话语。[F1_10 🔍] 特朗普宣称“已通过《10号关税法》对加拿大实施暂停”，并强调“文件完成最终手续”的前提条件，这一表述将主权问题简化为文件流程的技术性问题。加拿大总理卡尼的回应则进一步强化了这种技术官僚理性：“已取得实质性进展，但仍有重要工作要完成”。[F1_14-15] 这种“进展”与“工作”的模糊表述，将主权问题转化为官僚机器的例行程序，忽视了主权问题的政治与情感维度。

2. 生活世界真实痛感深描（Living Lifeworld Pathos）

在加拿大社会，特朗普的权力话语触动了深层的主权焦虑与民族认同危机。[F3_28 🔍] 特朗普的“正义之国”理念在加拿大引发了民族团结的高涨，但这种团结背后隐藏着对主权独立性的担忧。魁北克与艾伯塔省的分离主义情绪，既是对中央权力的反抗，也是对外部干预的无奈回应。这种情感动员机制，将主权问题转化为集体情绪的宣泄，而特朗普的权力话语则成为这种情绪的触发器。

3. Logos 与 Pathos 的内在辩证摩擦（The Dialectical Friction）

特朗普的权力话语与加拿大的主权话语之间存在深刻的辩证摩擦。特朗普通过“最后通牒”式的权力话语，将主权问题简化为文件流程的技术性问题，而加拿大则通过“仍有重要工作要完成”的官僚回应，进一步强化了这种技术官僚理性。[F1_14-15] 然而，这种技术官僚理性忽视了主权问题的政治与情感维度，导致民众的情感反弹（如民族主义高涨）成为权力博弈的隐性筹码。这种摩擦暴露了制度理性与人类情感之间的深刻撕裂。

4. 话语温度差与社会心理韧性诊断（Discourse Temperature & Prognosis）

特朗普的权力话语具有强烈的“热色调”特征，如“文件完成最终手续”的模糊条件、“基石XL输油管道”或将“从坟墟中复活”等夸张表述。[F1_12 🔍] 相比之下，卡尼的官僚回应则具有“冷色调”特征，如“仍有重要工作要完成”的技术官僚语言。这种话语温度差，反映了制度理性与人类情感之间的深刻对立。加拿大社会需要在权力话语与官僚理性之间寻找平衡，以避免主权问题沦为权力博弈的筹码。
