Chinese PVC imports raise cancer risk for Indians: Report

Extensive dumping of poor‑quality PVC resin with high levels of carcinogen compounds by China poses a significant public‑health risk in India, and timely enforcement of the proposed Quality Control Order (QCO) is necessary, a report said on Thursday, November 13.

As Russia threats worsen, all Canadians can help security: Latvian envoy – National

Canada is taking “positive” steps to boost its defence spending and military presence in Europe, but Canadians themselves need to take collective responsibility toward national security to counter growing threats from nations like Russia, Latvia’s envoy says. In an interview with Global News in Vancouver, Kaspars Ozoliņš, Latvia’s ambassador to Canada, said “unfriendly countries” are not limited to geography as a means to influence or attack other nations, using everything from cyberattacks to disinformation. That requires businesses and civil society to defend critical infrastructure alongside government and military forces, he stressed.“It’s not just about whether you spend two per cent or five per cent (of GDP on defence),” he said.“There is an increased understanding (in Latvia) that i...

Starting in the late ’70s, hip-hop and rap ascended through popular culture, mostly in America but also in other countries. Then, in 1990, a breakthrough. Hip-hop and rap tracks began infiltrating the Billboard Top 40, and for the next 35 years, we saw dozens of these songs reach official hit status. By the end of the decade, hip-hop/rap had supplanted rock as the nation’s cultudral driver when it came to music. It seemed unstoppable. America would forever be a hip-hop nation.This month, however, a surprise. For the first time since 1990, the Billboard Top 40 was devoid of any hip-hop and rap.What happened? Does this mean it’s on the decline and on the way out? Well, no. The genres are very alive and well. Its absence has more to do with the way charts are compiled these days than the popu...
