As always, check out the fantasy assistant for personalized waiver wire recommendations and team analysis. The 32-year-old is on-pace to hit 30 home runs and should be on fantasy rosters despite his .246 average. I'd be surprised if this hot streak lasts very long, but Rosario is in a good lineup and deserves a look while he's hitting.

The great news is that Canadian films and filmmakers always have a prominent place at our festival. At the same time, I think as related to Canadian cinema, we're really, really excited.

And Del Castillo warned: What happens in the oceans doesn't stay in the oceans. El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO)By now, most people have likely heard of either La Niña or El Niño, as we have just come out of three consecutive years of La Niña, and have now entered the El Niño phase. It has three phases: La Niña, El Niño and the neutral phase. For example, La Niña can bring higher rainfall to Indonesia and less rainfall to parts of the central and tropical Pacific. But once again, scientists are trying to better understand AMOC and the potential role that ocean warming and glacier melt will play in its circulation.

Nunavik currently needs approximately 800 additional social housing units, which means many people in the region live in overcrowded conditions. “I know some families living three to four people in one bedroom,” Jeannie Dupuis, the assistant director general at Kativik Ilisarniliriniq, the Nunavik regional school board, said. As of September 2022, the latest available figures, the school board was still short some 160 units for its staff. Each year the school board presents its housing needs to the Quebec provincial government, which then approves funding for the projects. “Sometimes the price is double or triple once they’re completed,” Sarah Aloupa, president of the Kativik school board said.

The timeline shows public updates on the fires were spotty and often vague, and much of the county’s attention was focused on another dangerous, larger fire in Upcountry Maui that was threatening neighborhoods in Kula. It shows no indication that county officials ever activated the region’s all-hazard siren system, and reveals other emergency alerts were scarce. The Lahaina fire, meanwhile, had escaped containment and forced the closure of the Lahaina Bypass road by 3:30 p.m. Just before 5 p.m., Maui County shared a new Lahaina fire report on Facebook: “Flareup forces Lahaina Bypass road closure; shelter in place encouraged.”Many were already running from the flames. At 5:20 p.m., Maui County shared another Lahaina fire update on Facebook: Evacuations in one subdivision were continuing, but access to the main highway was back open.

The latest fires in Canada, which have seen 20,000 people told t evacuate their homes in the city of Yellowknife, come two months after an outbreak of fires in the country engulfed North American cities including New York (pictured). Residents of Canada’s most northerly city have been told to evacuate as wildfires spread through the northwest territories. Other local communities in northern Canada have already suffered mass destruction as the wildfires spread throughout the region. A family escaping from Hay River said their car began melting around them as they drove away after an evacuation order was issued on Sunday. Canada has suffered far greater devastation from wildfires this year than usual.

But a CBC News analysis of actual wait times found that people usually end up waiting much longer than the website's estimate. He said unreasonable wait times are among the main sources of complaints to his office. Photo: (Justin Tang/The Canadian Press)The hours-long wait times are a regular feature of Kelowna, B.C. However, service demands do fluctuate, and at times callers experience higher than normal wait times, the spokesperson said. When service needs increase, the CRA does its best to rehire experienced, previously trained contact centre service representatives.

Luke Gordon Field, editor in chief of The Beaverton, said the blocking prompted him to act. The Beaverton never formally asked Meta to review its decision but Field said he believes the outcry, plus the changes to its Facebook information, pushed Meta to lift the ban. In an interview with CBC Toronto later, Field said The Beaverton advised Facebook that we were in fact satirists, liars, miscreants, tricksters. We're a creature of social media, Field told CBC Radio. Last week, CBC joined other new publishers in requesting Canada's Competition Bureau to investigate the news blocking.
