OTTAWA – Canadian car dealers will have to sell a lot more electric vehicles under new regulations finalized on Tuesday. They can also receive credits for building electric vehicle chargers and can earn credits in advance of the new rules coming into place in 2026. He said by getting out ahead with early rules Canada will get more electric vehicles, eliminating some of the long delays consumers have faced. “We will do this by ensuring more electric cars come to the Canadian market, instead of the US or other markets that have similar targets,” he said. He said even now when maintenance and fuel costs are factored in, there is a cost savings to electric vehicles.

Specifically, Louise focused significantly more on Loretta and Erin than on the faces of total strangers. “Long-lasting social memory likely provided key foundations for the evolution of human culture and sociality as they extended across time, space and group boundaries,” the researchers wrote. “Most people who work closely with great apes have the impression they must clearly remember us, even over years of separation,” Krupenye said. The apes had last seen old companions at least nine months ago, and, in the most extreme case, bonobo Louise hadn’t seen Loretta or Erin in nearly 27 years at the time of testing. The chimps and bonobos at the Kumamoto Sanctuary, more “research-experienced” apes, showed the most robust biases toward former groupmates, the researchers said.

(CBC/Radio-Canada - image credit)The tent city near Gatineau's Gîte ami homeless shelter is a constant source of fear for François Lescalier. "It's not a very safe zone, especially at winter time," Lescalier said of the existing tent city. "We're afraid some of them could be frozen, so we are very happy there's a new solution that is going to start today with heated tents for 50 people." He acknowledges putting people in tents, even heated ones, is not a humane or lasting solution to the city's homelessness problem. Still, it's better than letting the tent city take root, with all its dangers.

No, not Premier David Eby — we’re talking about his federal doppelganger, Housing Minister Sean Fraser. Fraser has been on a run of reforms since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appointed him to the housing portfolio in July. In British Columbia, though, the federal minister’s breakneck housing pace has earned a few chuckles from the New Democrat administration. It may end up being the most ambitious public-sector housing construction plan in provincial history. Eby has been urging the feds to get back into the game of building federal housing, like they did decades ago.

A three-year-old puppet and her nana, popular among Canadian youth two decades ago, are taking over TikTok, and perhaps proving once again that Mona is a wonderful girl. With over 200 million views on the hashtag Nanalan on TikTok, odds are those scrolling through the app have either heard “Who’s that wonderful girl?,” or seen Mona and her nana together in a video. Toronto’s Jason Hopley and Jamie Shannon co-created “Nanalan’” when they were working at YTV originally to fill commercial spots as three-minute shorts. “You’re always free at your Nana’s place to do things, and because nanas are way more relaxed than your parents are, right … nanas are just awesome.”WHO'S THAT WONDERFUL GIRL, ANYWAY? “At the time, it was 1999, there wasn’t too many things starring a grandmother or a little girl,” Shannon said.
