Liberal MPs say party remains united after Guilbeault resigns from cabinet
Several Liberal MPs say the party remains united after Culture Minister Steven Guilbeault resigned from cabinet in response to the federal government’s new pact with Alberta on a proposed pipeline.
In a social media post Thursday, Guilbeault said he submitted his resignation to Prime Minister Mark Carney that afternoon — then spelled out his objections to the prime minister’s reversal of many of the key environmental decisions made by the previous Liberal government.
Guilbeault said he intends to remain on as a Liberal MP but will no longer serve as Carney’s Quebec lieutenant.
Government House leader Steven MacKinnon said Guilbeault has an “impressive track record,” but he “respectfully” disagrees with his interpretation of the agreement signed with Alberta.
Hodgson says it’s ‘premature’ to draw conclusions about B.C. tanker ban fate
Federal Energy and Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson says it’s “premature” for anyone to draw conclusions regarding the potential removal, or adjustment, of the West Coast tanker ban, since no pipeline route has been mapped out to bring oil from Alberta to the B.C. coastline.
Hodgson said people are “jumping to conclusions” with regard to any discussions about adjusting or lifting the ban.
Hodgson is in B.C. Friday to meet with Premier David Eby, fresh off the signing of a memorandum of understanding between Ottawa and Alberta to build a pipeline to the West Coast.
Ontario storm to linger into weekend with 60 cm of snow possible in some areas
Many Ontario residents are waking up to the sights and sounds of Old Man Winter after the first major blast of a multi-day winter storm.
Environment Canada says snowfall amounts could reach upwards of 50 centimetres for areas off Georgian Bay, and up to 60 centimetres in northeastern Ontario as the system lingers into Saturday.
The weather office says drivers should expect poor visibility as major snowfall has already blanketed roads in northern Ontario.
The storm knocked out power to thousands of Hydro One customers Thursday, and crews worked through the night to get people back online.
Two more grizzlies captured, to be assessed after attack on B.C. schoolchildren
Two more grizzlies have been captured on British Columbia’s central coast as conservation officers continue to look for the bear that attacked a group of schoolchildren and their teachers.
The B.C. Conservation Officer Service says two bears from Bella Coola are being assessed and noted that forensic evidence from last week’s attack is being analyzed.
It says drones equipped with thermal cameras are being used to try to locate any bears believed to be involved in the attack that seriously injured three children and a teacher.
Two other bears were previously captured during the search for a grizzly sow and her two cubs, which are believed to have attacked a group of 20 while on a field trip.
Statistics Canada to release third-quarter gross domestic product figures
Statistics Canada is expected to release its latest reading on the Canadian economy today.
The agency is scheduled to release its figures for gross domestic product for September and the third quarter as a whole.
A Reuters poll of economists ahead of the report predicts an annualized growth rate of 0.5 per cent in the third quarter, according to LSEG Data & Analytics.
Statistics Canada’s preliminary estimate for September released last month had called for an increase of 0.1 per cent in real GDP for the month and annualized growth of 0.4 per cent for the third quarter.
Christmas Tree sellers seeing high demand this year despite some price increases
With less than a month to go before the big day, Christmas tree sellers are preparing for some of the busiest days of the year.
An early snowfall in some regions seems to have stoked customer demand even as some trees are more expensive than last year.
David Thibeault from Treasy International says demand has exceeded expectations, with sales at his company up between 15 and 20 per cent from last year.
Doug Drysdale, with Drysdale Tree Farms Ltd., says the last weekend of November and the first weekend of December are the two busiest weekends of the year.
