Veteran B.C. MLA barred from federal Conservative run says Tories must fix nominations

A longtime B.C. MLA who was barred from running for the Conservative party in the April federal election said the Tories need to do a deep dive into their nomination processes — but he has little faith that will happen. Michael de Jong said too much power has been centralized with the party’s leadership in Ottawa and he’s not alone in feeling frustrated with the way nominations were run.But he said the party’s leadership has shown little willingness to acknowledge fault.Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre told a podcast this week that the party’s support in the April 28 election “didn’t actually come down that much” compared to January, when it was projected to sweep to a huge majority. 2:10 B...

Early puberty may increase chances of mental health issues: Study

An earlier-than-usual onset of puberty could be related with a higher chance of mental health issues, with incidence of depression and ADHD remaining high for at least eight years following onset, a study has found. `Central precocious puberty` is a condition in which physical changes associated with this stage of growth begin early -- before age eight for girls, nine for boys. Researchers, including those from University Hospital Essen, Germany, looked at over 6,500 individuals -- around 1,100 who had early puberty and the rest who did not -- using the country`s health insurance data, following them for 13 years. Findings, published in The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Network Open, show that those who attained puberty early were about 50 per cent more likely to be...

What is NATO’s new 5% defence spending pledge, and how will Canada meet it? – National

Canada joined its NATO allies on Wednesday in agreeing to a new defence spending target of five per cent of GDP — but the details are more complicated. Members of the alliance will have until 2035 to reach the new spending goal, for one thing. And the five per cent is being split into two categories: “core defence requirements” and broader defence-related infrastructure and industry.Speaking to reporters at The Hague at the NATO summit, Prime Minister Mark Carney expressed confidence that Canada will achieve its new objectives after lagging behind the alliance’s spending goals for years.“We’ve arrived at this summit looking forward with a plan to help lead with new investments to build our strength,” he said.“The investments we’re making in defence and security, broader security, given the...

Three Key New Features and Changes I’m Excited About in the Second macOS Tahoe Beta

I'm pretty excited about macOS Tahoe. Apple's annual operating system upgrade is poised to introduce a number of exciting new features and changes, including a fresh design and an upgraded Spotlight Search. Tahoe won't be available to the general public for a while, as the OS is still in beta testing as Apple irons out the kinks. To that end, the company dropped the second beta for macOS Tahoe this week, and it includes three key features I'm particularly interested in.AirPods beta enrollmentSpeaking of beta testing, did you know that Apple has a beta program for AirPods? If you didn't, that's probably by design, since up until now, only developers could enroll their AirPods in the beta. That's now changing: With Apple's latest releases this fall, users will be able to opt-in to the AirPod...

Feds to table bill with tougher bail, sentencing provisions in fall: Fraser – National

The Liberal government will table a bill this fall introducing stricter bail conditions and sentencing for some crimes, particularly those involving organized crime, human trafficking, home invasion and car theft, Justice Minister Sean Fraser said in an interview. “It’s perhaps obvious, given the tenor around the criminal justice system, that reforms are in order,” Fraser told The Canadian Press.The government will consider including additional reforms but “at minimum” will implement the crime policies the Liberals promised during the spring federal election, Fraser said.Fraser was named justice minister by Prime Minister Mark Carney in May, following an election campaign which saw Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre blame the Liberals for a wave of violent crime.In their campaign platfor...
