What a night it was at the Mary Brown’s Centre. Musicians sang and played, the people came and the business community pitched in. The result: a grand total of $1.69 million—and counting—for victims of Hurricane Fiona. That includes money raised from the We Stand On Guard Again relief concert and the matching funds from the federal government. Social media told of long lineups for chicken as Mary Brown’s donated 100 per cent of its proceeds from Sunday sales to the cause. It turned out to be their busiest day ever in Newfoundland and Labrador with sales hitting the $335,000 mark. Thank you Mary Browns.

The Supreme Court asked the centre and states to ensure the practice is stopped. New Delhi: The Supreme Court today slammed the use of the "two-finger test" in cases of rape and sexual assault and asked the centre to ensure the practice is stopped. The practice has no scientific basis to ascertain the sexual history of women, and it instead re-traumatises them, the Supreme Court said as it ruled that any individual conducting the "two-finger test" on a survivor will be held guilty of misconduct. "It is patriarchal and sexist to suggest that a woman cannot be believed when she states that she was raped merely because she is sexually active," the top court said.  A Supreme Court bench comprising Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justice Hima Kohli made these observations while restoring conviction in a rape case.  The bench overturned a Jharkhand High Court's ruling acquitting a rape and murder convict, and upheld a decision of a trial court holding ...

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi while laying the foundation stone for an aircraft manufacturing facility in Gujarat's Vadodara said it was India's giant leap towards becoming self-reliant in aviation sector.  "In the coming years, the Defence and Aerospace sectors will be two important pillars for making India ' Atmanirbhar '. By 2025, our defence manufacturing scale would cross $25 billion. Defence corridors being established in Uttar Pradesh and Tamil Nadu would power this scale," he said. This is the first time that such a huge investment is taking place in India's defence aerospace sector, the PM said, adding that his government has carried out several economic reforms over the years. These reforms have hugely benefitted the manufacturing sector and given it a boost, he added. "The world's fastest growing aviation sector is in India today. We are about to be in the top three countries globally in terms of air traffic," he said...

Les enquêteurs sont-ils passés à côté d’un crime  ? En décembre 2012, à Lille, une jeune fille disparaissait dans la nuit du vendredi 14 au samedi 15. Le corps d’Ingrid Marchal était retrouvé, le 31 décembre, dans la Deûle , au parc de la citadelle. Quinze jours plus tôt, le corps d’une autre femme avait été découvert au même endroit. Les constatations évoquent une noyade, mais beaucoup de zones d’ombre entourent l’enquête. Des pistes restent inexplorées. Sur l’insistance de la mère d’Ingrid Marchal, Dominique Blondiaux, une information judiciaire finit par être ouverte, en 2014. Instruction qui se terminera par un non-lieu en 2018, faute d’éléments probants. Aucune nouvelle des compléments d’expertises Pour Dominique Blondiaux, pas question de laisser tomber. Depuis le début, elle est persuadée que sa fille n’est pas tombée toute seule dans les eaux du canal lillois. Et voilà bientôt dix ans qu’elle se bat pour découvrir la vérité. Elle a même écri...

Despite hundreds of calls and complaints — and millions of dollars in contracts disputed by homeowners — an Ontario heating and cooling equipment company continues to operate even with dozens of charges alleging violations of the province's Consumer Protection Act, a CBC Marketplace investigation reveals. The Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery is responsible for consumer protection, and states on its website that it handles complaints and enforces consumer protection laws.  Through a Freedom of Information request — a process that allows the public, including journalists, to access government records —  Marketplace found that there have been more than 400 incidents, inquiries and complaints since January 2019 made to Consumer Protection Ontario, a program within the ministry, involving Ontario Green Savings.  In those complaints, homeowners have described feeling "lied to," "cheated" and "scammed."  And many shared detailed descripti...

Des patients sur le carreau : voilà la crainte d’au moins 12 000 médecins généralistes qui, aujourd’hui, exercent encore alors qu’ils ont dépassé l’âge de la retraite. Sans eux, les déserts médicaux - où le nombre de praticiens par habitant est insuffisant - seraient encore plus nombreux. Emmanuel Macron a annoncé, mercredi soir sur France 2, qu’ils ne seraient bientôt plus tenus de cotiser au-delà de l’âge légal de départ à la retraite , histoire de les encourager à poursuivre leur activité. Est-ce suffisant ? Tous pointent une situation « critique ». Read the full article here

An 88-year-old Toronto woman was stranded 7,600 kilometres from home after a medical emergency and a fruitless search for a hospital bed in the Greater Toronto Area, and her case should be a warning to future travellers, says her son. Mike Pace’s mother, Carmen, was on vacation on the Mediterranean island of Malta in September when she had a stroke. To make matters worse, Pace said he and his family were told by his insurance company that there were no hospital beds available in Toronto or Mississauga to treat his mother. After weeks of waiting, Pace said his insurance company presented him with an unusual option: his mother would be flown back to Toronto anyway and dropped at a local emergency room. “It is stressful,” Pace told CTV News. “It’s created a lot of anxiety for the family abroad.” Carmen Pace is transported by airplane to a St. Joseph's hospital in Toronto. (supplied) Leaving a transfer patient at an emergency room is known colloquially as “dumping.” The travel in...

The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled that a 2011 change to the Criminal Code requiring sex offenders to automatically be added to the sex offenders registry is unconstitutional. In a five to four split, the top court ruled that anyone who has been added to the National Sex Offender Registry since 2011 can apply to have their status changed.  Former Conservative prime minister Stephen Harper's 2011 changes to the Criminal Code required sex offenders' names to be automatically added to the registry. Anyone convicted of two sex offences or more remains on the registry for life. The changes meant judges no longer had the discretion to submit the names of sex offenders to the registry.  Prior to the 2011 change, a Crown prosecutor had to apply for a Sex Offender Information Registration Act (SOIRA) order and ask a judge to decide whether the offender should be added to the sex offender registry. The court considering the order would have to determine ...

A lot of weather records were smashed yesterday in the province with 14 either broken or tied. A warm southerly flow also brought a lot of moisture with it but it’s just the opposite today as winds front to the northwest which means cool and dry. Meteorologist Robert Grove of the Gander Weather Office says Thursday was unseasonably warm. Thirteen records were broken and one was tied. St. John’s was the hot spot at 21.6, an all-time record by far, and Millertown-Buchans tied their record high for October 27. Finished with max 21.6°C on this last day of our warm spell. History says odds are slim that 20+°C occurs again this year (have never had one beyond Oct 30 in the past).

Prime Minister Narendra Modi , while addressing the first Chintan Shivir (brainstorming session) of state home ministers and top police officers, pitched the idea of a single uniform for police forces across the country on Friday. “The ‘One Nation, One Uniform’ for police is just an idea. I am not trying to impose it on you. Just give it a thought. It may happen, it may happen in 5, 50 or 100 years. All the states should just think it over,” the prime minister said, adding that he believed the identity of police across the country should be the same. “There is one important issue for our nation. Currently in our country, there is a ‘one nation, one ration’ card; ‘one nation, one mobility’ card; ‘one nation, one grid’ and a ‘one nation, one sign language’. Just like this, all the states should think of a ‘one nation, one uniform’ policy. It will also provide profit and also will give a common identity to law enforcement as citizens will recognise police personnel anywhere in the coun...

" J ’étais surpris comme vous tous."  Roger Battesti, 80 ans, le déclare d’emblée face à la cour d’assises spéciale de Paris. Il le répétera de diverses façons, ce jeudi après-midi: "J’étais loin, loin de savoir ce qu’il allait faire." Loin d’imaginer que son ami très intime allait commettre une tuerie de masse. En cette huitième semaine de procès 14-Juillet, la cour tente de percer les mystères du tueur au camion, abattu par la police après avoir fait 86 morts à Nice. À ce titre, Roger Battesti apparaît comme un témoin clé. Il le surnommait "Momo", l’appelle aujourd’hui "Labouhlel". Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel, pour sa part, lui donnait du "cher ami" . Ce retraité niçois était le confident de "MLB". Son mentor. Et son amant. Dans la galerie de proches du terroriste qui se succèdent à la barre , Roger Battesti détone. Ce résident niçois, né en Algérie il y a quatre-vingts ans, en paraît vingt de moins. Son visage aux trait...
