Canadian woman detained by ICE in a ‘nightmare’ situation, family says

Paula Callejas was trying to expand her swimsuit business in Florida after taking time off to take care of her ailing father in Canada before his death. Instead of celebrating the fashion line, the Canadian was taken into United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention.
The 45-year-old’s family said their finances are being stretched as they try to navigate the confusing and difficult legal and immigration systems in the United States.

Quebec businesses sue Ottawa over temporary foreign worker rule changes
A group of Quebec businesses are suing the federal government for $300-million over Ottawa’s sharp tightening of the temporary foreign worker program last fall, arguing that the policy reversal was too abrupt and could drive some of them into insolvency.
The lawsuit, filed in late May, includes nearly two dozen companies in industries from plastics to truck components to slaughterhouses concentrated in the Montéregie region of the province, just outside Montreal, along with five temporary foreign workers whose livelihoods will be or have been affected by the policy changes.

Two years ago, before Justice Maria Carroccia presided at the Hockey Canada trial, she was behind the bench for a long and complicated murder case in her hometown of Windsor, Ont.
Three men were accused of killing a young woman in a dispute over drugs and money. The trial stretched out more than four months under the spotlight of local attention.

Doctors are prescribing nature – but we don’t know how it works
Over the past five years, more than 1.3 million Canadians have received a medical prescription for a dose of nature to alleviate health issues, though critics say the science is lacking.
The PaRx program was launched in Canada by the BC Parks Foundation in November, 2020, eventually expanding to other provinces. Crafted by health care professionals, the program recommends at least two hours per week of time in nature, in chunks of no less than 20 minutes at a time, and offers patients tips on how to achieve those goals.

A party to celebrate a mistake

This week a breathless announcement arrived in my inbox. “Toronto is set to celebrate a historic cultural milestone,” it said. On Aug. 23, the city would hold its very first official “Sankofa Day.” What’s that, you say? You may well ask.
Sankofa Square is the obscure new name for Yonge-Dundas Square, the one-acre public space at the corner of Yonge and Dundas streets, right across from the Eaton Centre. Sankofa Day, its organizers tell us, is another name for the International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition.

Alberta adds $2.8-billion to Heritage Fund, expands board of new oversight corporation
Alberta’s government has contributed $2.8-billion to a provincial wealth fund that now stands at $30-billion and fleshed out the board of directors for a new corporation that was set up to make the fund grow faster.

Yukon prepares for vote on possible switch to ranked-ballot elections

The last time Yukon residents voted in a territorial plebiscite it was about allowing the sale of alcohol, this time the vote will be on the equally dizzying question of electoral reform.
More than a century since that 1920 plebiscite, the vote that is expected to be part of this year’s territorial election could see the Yukon become the first jurisdiction in Canada to move to a ranked ballot from the current-first-past-the-post system.

B.C. drug body members resign as health minister apologizes to family of 10-year-old girl with rare disease

Alex Delvecchio quietly built a Hall of Fame career with the Detroit Red Wings

By the age of 23, Alex Delvecchio had placed his name on the Stanley Cup three times. He kept skating with the Detroit Red Wings until he was 41, but he never won another championship.
For nearly a quarter-century, he quietly put together one of the greatest careers in National Hockey League history, though few outside Detroit paid much notice. The forward never won a scoring title, never was named a first-team all-star, never won a most-valuable-player award. Overshadowed by teammate Gordie Howe, it was barely noted upon Mr. Delvecchio’s retirement as a player that he was the league’s second-highest scorer of all time, trailing only his famous linemate.
Alberta serial romance scammer fights court ruling keeping him in prison indefinitely

Chevron’s $53-billion Hess deal greenlit after Exxon’s legal challenge fails

Chevron CVX-N has scored a critical ruling in Paris that has given it the go-ahead for a $53 billion acquisition of Hess HES-N and access to one of the biggest oil finds of the decade.
Chevron said Friday that it completed its acquisition of Hess shortly after the ruling from the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris. Exxon XOM-N had challenged Chevron’s bid for Hess, one of three companies with access to the massive Stabroek Block oil field off the coast of Guyana.

Why First Nations are clashing with Ontario and Ottawa over bills aimed at speeding up megaprojects
First Nations leaders have opposed both the federal government’s Bill C-5 and Ontario’s Bill 5, pieces of legislation that would allow the two governments extraordinary powers to ignore existing laws – including environmental regulations – to fast-track megaprojects such as mines or pipelines.
They say the two bills run roughshod over the constitutional requirement that governments consult First Nations about development on their traditional territories. A group of nine First Nations in Ontario launched a constitutional challenge this week of both Ontario’s and Canada’s bills.

After 18 years of work, Toronto’s Port Lands opens to the public
On a sunny July afternoon, the Don River flowed into Toronto Harbour. Its banks were lined with lake sedge, switchgrass and Canada anemone. Paths and bridges laced through the landscape, which looked as if they had always been there.
In fact, this stretch of river and its surrounding lands − now known as Biidaasige Park − are entirely manufactured. They are not a work of nature but a feat of civic imagination.
They are the product of a $1.5-billion effort known as the Port Lands Flood Protection Project, which has redrawn the mouth of the Don and conjured vast new public spaces from what had long been a civic afterthought.
