The most concerning stat is season ticket sales, which were capped at 13,500 when the NHL returned to Winnipeg in 2011.

The cost for Toronto to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup is now projected to be nearly $80M “more than initially thought,” according to Sara Jabakhanji of CBC.ca. City staff now “estimate the hit to taxpayers will run about” $380M, linking the cost increase to Toronto “being awarded a sixth match, instead of the five initially predicted.” City Budget Chief Shelley Carroll yesterday “defended the cost escalation,” saying that the rise is “‘manageable’ and the economic return will be much more valuable for the city in job and economic growth.” When it comes to mitigating costs, Carroll said that these reports “allow the city to be ‘more accountable and more transparent,’” in addition to “counting pennies in the planning process.” Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow said that much of the rise in cost projections is “a result of inflation,” adding that she is “confident the city will find ways to offset some of the costs that fall onto Toronto.” Earlier this month, Ontario announced its commitment to giving Toronto up to $97M for the city's FIFA World Cup hosting duties, as “as long as the federal government matches its contribution” (CBC.ca, 2/26).

In the third quarter of the financial year 2024, AmBank’s performance was uplifted by a one-off tax credit of RM537.6 million. Overall, the one-off items for the quarter contributed a net benefit of RM135.1 million to profit after tax and minority interest. For the nine-month period, the group’s net profit stood at RM1.39 billion, compared to RM1.28 billion in the same period of the previous financial year, while revenue was recorded at RM3.48 billion, down from RM3.55 billion in the previous corresponding period. AmBank noted that while total income for the period slightly decreased to RM3.48 billion, income from its continuing operations remained largely unchanged at RM3.43 billion. Consequently, net interest income (NII) for the period declined by 8.7% to RM2.48 billion, partially offset by robust growth of 19.2% in non-interest income (NoII) to RM995.8 million.

Thomas want local MP Cathy McLeod defeated in fall electionTo the editor:The Conservative government’s Bill C-51 (Anti-Terrorism Bill), like the so-called Fair Elections Act of last year, is receiving widespread criticism. Our MP Cathy McLeod thinks C-51 is awesome, like she thought the Fair Elections Act” was awesome. She also thinks the recent trade deals, which Canada has signed, are great. These so-called “trade deals” allow foreign companies and investors to sue Canada over laws made by any level of our government they don’t like. We need an MP who will work for our interests, not against them.
