A man accused of a violent attack last year at Nova Scotia’s largest hospital is now facing the charges alone after his two legal aid lawyers were granted permission to withdraw from the case Tuesday in Nova Scotia Supreme Court. Coulombe was supposed to appear in the Halifax courtroom in person on Tuesday morning, but he refused to be transported from the jail in Dartmouth. He also accused the judge and lawyers of being part of a conspiracy. Justice Patrick Duncan told Coulombe that without a lawyer, he would be required to appear in person for every subsequent court date. Nova Scotia Legal Aid has approved funding for Coulombe to get another lawyer and the judge strongly recommended he do so.

After Prime Minister Mark Carney signed a memorandum of understanding with Alberta to advance a new bitumen pipeline to the Pacific coast, he met with Coastal First Nations (CFN) leaders in January. The Coastal First Nations are an alliance of eight First Nations and nine communities along BC’s central and north coasts and Haida Gwaii, who are opposed to the project. Beginning with Rebel News, an assortment of right-wing and media columnists have tried to discredit the legitimacy of the Coastal First Nations. Coastal First Nations, as a group, does not make decisions for the individual nations. Coastal First Nations, working with the BC government since the 2006 agreements, established conservancies covering 85 per cent of the forest, alongside ecosystem-based rules for sustainable forestry, carbon projects and marine planning across First Nations' territories.

Key Takeaways Health care facilities’ ability to provide patient care can be threatened by large-scale telecommunication outages, requiring providers to build additional redundancy into their own infrastructure. In the months and years following major outages, health care institutions have taken steps to mitigate the threat of service disruption to patient care. Many of these users were health care providers and organizations, as well as patients trying to access health care. For complex critical systems, like health care, that rely on telecoms [ ], interconnectivity facilitates seamless and efficient data sharing across a network of health system partners. For health care organizations, using third-party services carries an inherent risk: tech disruptions that can’t be addressed in-house.

OTTAWA — A group of comfortable retirees are calling on Ottawa to shrink their Old Age Security (OAS) payments, saying they don’t need the money and it would be better spent on other priorities. “It makes no sense to me that I receive Old Age Security,” said Harry Grossmith, one of 11 retirees featured in a new video produced by advocacy group Generation Squeeze. “I’m not poor, I’m not struggling and yet I receive a bonus every month just for simply being a senior.”“We don’t need and don’t want OAS any longer,” added fellow retiree Victor Grosstern. OAS is currently Canada’s costliest federal program, eating up roughly one in every six dollars of federal spending. Kershaw noted that the government tabled a $78-billion deficit, its largest ever outside the COVID pandemic in November’s federal budget.

OTTAWA — Members of Parliament and human rights activists are demanding Canada do more to put pressure on the Islamic Republic of Iran, including sanctioning its supreme leader and increasing criminal investigations into perpetrators of the regime. “We need to name and shame the perpetrators,” said Brandon Silver, director of policy and projects at the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights. In 2024, the Canadian government listed the IRGC as a terrorist group under Canada’s Criminal Code. The Canadian government has sanctioned 210 Iranian individuals and 254 Iranian entities, with Canada severing diplomatic ties with Iran back in 2012. Iran’s supreme leader has warned of wider conflict if the U.S. decides to strike.
