Privy Council says a report assessing work of foreign interference panel sent to PMOOTTAWA — An assessment of the work done by a panel tasked with flagging incidents of foreign interference during the 2021 federal election is now complete and has been sent to the Prime Minister's Office and the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians, the Privy Council Office has confirmed. The update from the Privy Council marks the first report on its status. The Privy Council Office says an unclassified and public version of the report is being finalized and will be made available soon, but offered no specific timeline.

The CBC belongs to all of us, and should always be off the table for any political party. Where Poilievre went too far is his promise to cut funding to the CBC. The CBC is not biased—although I imagine anything in the middle might look like it’s far left when you’re sitting as far right as Poilievre. The CBC regularly gets reviewed for bias in its news coverage and always passes with flying colours. The CBC, which belongs to all of us, is the exception, and should always be off the table for any political party.

It's taking a toll on residents, including women and children living in shelter care at the Grace Sparkes House, which sits on the town's south side, away from many critical services. There's another bridge that connects the town's south and north sides, but it's much farther down the highway and farther away from the town's center and business district. Slaney says the shelter has always depended on taxis to transport women and children from both sides of the town.
