Send this page to someone via emailThe Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) must face a defamation lawsuit by a U.S. charity alleging the publicly funded news outlet repeatedly aired false claims that it deceived its donors, a Washington, D.C., federal judge has ruled. U.S. District Judge Randolph D. Moss on Tuesday rejected the CBC’s bid to dismiss the case on the grounds that a Canadian court would be the more appropriate venue. 1:14 NDP ethics critic says WE Charity scandal report points to ‘insider access’WE Charity alleges the CBC’s hour-long investigative story about it advanced false claims about its finances and projects that were contradicted by the network’s own reporting and information WE Charity provided. The scandal, which forced WE Charity to wind down its Canadian operations, is unrelated to the lawsuit, but the nonprofit alleges it motivated the CBC to “sensationalize” its reporting. The CBC’s motion to dismiss did not address the merits of WE Charity’s claims but argued that a Canadian court would be the more appropriate forum.

WINNIPEG - A Winnipeg man found guilty of first-degree murder in the stabbing death of a sleeping toddler has lost his bid to have the conviction overturned. The Manitoba Court of Appeal says the trial judge did not make a mistake in allowing the video because its probative value outweighed its prejudicial effect. The video established Jensen’s motor skills around the time the murder, the Court of Appeal decision said. The decision also noted Jensen did not ask the trial judge to revisit his decision to admit the video at any point during the trial. The Appeal Court determined the trial judge “applied the correct legal principles” and his decision did not amount to any injustice.

As the studies and reports pile up and support claims of systemic anti-Black racism, we end up with more discussions, some promises, and then, a few months later, we do it all over again. They were interesting: 75 per cent of Black Canadians believe racism is a problem in the workplace. The CEOs of more than 300 Canadian corporations signed a pledge to combat anti-Black racism in corporate Canada. Another report in 2022 about anti-Blackness and its effects in health care, Canadian medical journal acknowledges its role in perpetuating anti-Black racism in health care.

Previously, Cambodia had to rely on importing packaged or dried shiitakes, as transporting fresh ones proved unfeasible. But now, a shiitake mushroom, a species native to colder Asian regions, thrives. This can only be achieved through the ingenious use of greenhouses. Grower Kheang Vanda stated: “While shiitake mushrooms are common in cooler regions like Japan, Korea, and China, I’ve mastered creating greenhouses that mimic these climates, perfect for cultivation. SY’s greenhouses cleverly use insulation on roofs and walls, maintaining the necessary cool temperatures and mitigating external heat for successful mushroom cultivation.

Without beating around the bush, Dr. Morrow told me I was palliative with end-stage multiple sclerosis, a disease I’d had for years. But it was really the MAID death of a friend with MS in 2021 that prompted my own thoughts. People even paid me for my work, which helps with hefty pharmaceutical bills not covered by my health plan. We plan to have a few close friends and a family member with us ahead of time for bubbly, and my lifelong friend David playing viola. To this day, Dennis reiterates our wedding vow, to love in “sickness and in health.” His gentleness proves it.

Case in point is the situation of H-2A farm workers with visas and legal contracts, and they're highly exploited. These regulations, to me, seem outdated, given the vast evidence on pesticide exposure in farm workers, but they are in compliance with federal law. Lisbeth Iglesias-RíosYes, just so just to give a little bit of context of the Michigan Farm Worker project. Like the big example is in Florida, the Immokalee farm workers, they are unionized.
