Remigration! – Hundreds of food delivery drivers protest downtown to demand dignity, fair pay from employers

Hundreds of delivery drivers gathered at a protest in downtown Toronto on Monday to demand that their employers provide fair pay, safe working conditions and dignity at work.

A newly formed group, called Delivery Drivers United, organized the protest in Nathan Phillips Square. The group is made up of more than 900 workers who work for such platforms as Uber Eats, Skip and DoorDash.

A bunch of food delivery guys were protesting in Downtown Toronto today.

They went around shouting unintelligible slogans (fair pay?) and ended their march at Uber’s offices on Bloor Street East.

If your lunch didn’t arrive, now you know why.

Here’s their web site. Apparently Door Dash and Uber Eats drivers are the economic engine of commerce in Canada.

If hackers can take control of a supermarket freezer, how vulnerable is other tech?

Supermarkets across Europe have been hit by a suspected cyber-attack affecting their fridges and freezers, and raising concern about the vulnerabilities of internet-connected hardware from industrial machinery to humble domestic appliances.

Smart devices which are connected to the internet can include fridges, central heating, and even washing machines.

And while that makes them easier to control remotely, in theory, any device which goes online can potentially be exploited by malicious actors.

John Ivison: ‘Red flags all over’ Carney government’s buy-in of AI company Cohere

I am not, it should be acknowledged, an expert on the merits of frontier AI models.

I am, however, a reasonably seasoned observer of government ministers proclaiming solemnly that they have just made a very prudent investment of taxpayers’ money, on the most favourable of terms, as AI minister Evan Solomon did this past weekend.

Sometimes it works out: the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion may yet turn out to have been a profitable investment by Ottawa.

U.S. will stop $4B in aid to Israel at the end of the year, Trump says

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he has made a deal with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the United States to stop sending $4 billion in aid annually to Israel, without providing details.

Oil prices slid in response to Trump’s comments.

“Bibi Netanyahu and I have made a deal that we give Israel $4 billion a year, and we made a deal months ago that we’re stopping,” he said in a phone interview with “Fox and Friends,” saying that the money would get “cut off at the end of the year.”

BREAKING: President Trump says the U.S. will end roughly $4 billion in annual aid to Israel by the end of the year, revealing that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to the decision.

“Because they don’t need it,” Trump said during an exclusive interview on @foxandfriends, describing Israel as a thriving country that no longer requires American financial assistance.

Trump also said Netanyahu raised the idea of ending the aid himself. He emphasized that Israel remains one of America’s most reliable allies as the two countries prepare for a major shift in their financial relationship.

Lutnick who derailed trade talks is now reviving them

OTTAWA — U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, whose last-minute demands led to trade talks breaking down in August, has become the behind-the-scenes “driving force” pushing Canada and the U.S. to re-engage on a deal, multiple sources tell CTV News.

Sources in both countries say Lutnick initiated the re-engagement just over 10 days ago, after months of stasis, and has centred talks around the Section 232 tariffs that apply to steel, aluminum, lumber and autos because that is his purview.

Two Afghan migrants followed a 14-year-old girl onto a train before repeatedly sexually assaulting her in the toilets, a court heard.

Baryalai Rahimi, 25, and Mirebadurahman Sadat, 29, allegedly ignored the vulnerable teenager’s repeated pleas as they abused her on a mid-afternoon Southeastern service travelling from Kent to London Bridge on February 5.

Rahimi and Sadat deny a total of 20 charges including multiple counts of sexual activity with a child.

Can the Carney government’s second budget help put Canada on a path to net zero?

In the spring of 2024, nine months before he formally entered politics, Mark Carney made a couple of public appearances to discuss the state of the Canadian economy and the possible paths forward.

And on at least one specific area of policy Carney suggested he would do things differently than Justin Trudeau.

“Personally, would I swap one battery plant for a million, million-five heat pumps?” Carney asked himself rhetorically during a Q&A in Toronto, referring to a series of deals the Trudeau government signed to attract battery manufacturing facilities to Canada. “Yeah, I would. Because that would deliver — let’s deliver stuff for people.”

What a crock. Carney and Brookfield stand to make a tidy profit from the heat pump scam.

CHARLEBOIS: A price freeze that doesn’t freeze your grocery bill

The grocery industry’s annual “blackout” begins in November and generally runs through the end of January. During this period, grocery chains applying the policy refuse certain price increases requested by their suppliers. For shoppers hoping for relief, that may sound reassuring. But freezing suppliers’ prices does not mean freezing the grocery bill.

WTF?

A baby elephant named Ellie was discovered alone in the wild in South Africa, having been rejected by his herd due to a severe umbilical abscess and hernia.

Ellie remained lethargic and deeply depressed, showing no will to live. Recognizing that elephants are intensely social creatures, the team introduced him to Duma, a retired service and sniffer dog residing at the sanctuary.

The effect was instantaneous. As soon as they met at the sand pile, Ellie’s demeanor shifted from despair to curiosity. The two became inseparable, with Duma’s playful energy teaching Ellie how to be a joyful calf again. She finally had a chance to heal and enjoy life.

Who should be privileged to become our 51st state?

We don’t want all of Canada, especially the French-speaking locations. As President Trump reminds us, they don’t really have much we need, though Alberta looks tempting.

At a campaign rally in Corpus Christi, Texas, Trump intriguingly floated the idea of Venezuela potentially joining the union. After all, they are being a bit more cooperative, and they have massive oil reserves.

What about the U.K.?
