30 articles il y a 1 heure 11

🚑 Breaking & Incidents

  1. Des pannes du service 911 signalées ce matin en Ontario et au Québec. La Police provinciale de l’Ontario et plusieurs corps de police ont fait état de perturbations intermittentes du 911 et ont recommandé d’utiliser les lignes non urgentes, comme celle de la PPO au 1-888-310-1122, pendant qu’elles travaillent avec les fournisseurs pour rétablir le service.
  2. Six personnes hospitalisées après une collision en face-à-face à Gatineau causée par un conducteur roulant à contresens. La Sûreté du Québec indique qu’un Nissan circulant à contresens sur l’autoroute 50 a percuté un autre véhicule vers 23 h 30; deux passagers à l’arrière demeurent dans un état critique et l’autoroute a été rouverte vers 6 h 30 jeudi.

🏈 Sports

  1. Claude Giroux et les Senators ouvrent le camp d’entraînement, le vétéran toujours en quête d’une première Coupe Stanley. Le joueur de 38 ans a signé une prolongation d’un an et s’est entraîné dès le premier jour; l’entraîneur Travis Green a salué son rythme; les nouvelles acquisitions William Eklund, Andre Burakovsky et le gardien Samuel Ersson figurent parmi les joueurs à surveiller cette saison.

🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. Le gouvernement de l’Ontario a sollicité des idées pour utiliser ses nouveaux pouvoirs de zone économique spéciale prévus par le projet de loi 5 quelques jours après son adoption. Une lettre de juin 2025 du chef de cabinet du premier ministre Ford demandait aux ministères des propositions pour élaborer le cadre, les critères et les règlements permettant la création de zones où les règles provinciales pourraient primer sur les lois municipales.
  2. Le premier ministre Doug Ford se dit ouvert au traitement obligatoire des personnes dépendantes, tandis que des experts mettent en garde contre les limites de ressources. Ford a dit qu’il appuyait l’envoi forcé de personnes en traitement; la Dre Leslie Buckley du Centre de toxicomanie et de santé mentale (CAMH) a indiqué à Global News que la province aurait besoin d’importantes ressources nouvelles et de centres autonomes pour mettre en œuvre une telle politique.

🚨 Crime & Public Safety

  1. Des documents non scellés du "Project South" allèguent qu’un agent de Toronto vendait des insignes, des uniformes et des adresses privées à des criminels. Des transcriptions d’écoute électronique et des notes de surveillance nomment le constable Timothy Barnhardt de la 12e Division et mentionnent des frais de 500 $ pour des recherches dans des bases de données; le matériel a été rendu public après qu’un juge eut assoupli les interdictions de publication.
  2. La PPO saisit plus de 365 000 $ en cannabis illégal et accuse quatre personnes après avoir démantelé l’opération en ligne « 420 Highway ». L’enquête menée de juillet à septembre a conduit à trois mandats de perquisition à Windsor le 2 septembre, à la saisie de cannabis séché, de concentrés, de produits comestibles, de produits de vapotage, de tabac de contrebande et de 24 000 $ en argent comptant.
