🚑 Breaking & Incidents

  1. Des plaisanciers retirent un ourson de 30 livres du lac Okanagan. Christina Zamniuk et sa famille ont secouru le petit le 12 sept. après l'avoir vu en difficulté; ils ont suivi les conseils téléphoniques des agents de conservation et l'ont relâché près du rivage. Des spécialistes de la faune ont déclaré aux journalistes que les chances que ce ourson d’environ 30 livres prenne suffisamment de poids pour l'hiver sont « très minces », a dit Angelika Langen de la Northern Lights Wildlife Society.
  2. Une femelle ourse et son ourson ont traversé un Pharmasave à Hope pendant environ cinq minutes. Le personnel a filmé les deux traversant la rue pour inspecter les allées de produits, a indiqué l'employée Kim Glentworth; une vidéo de la rencontre sur TikTok (plateforme de vidéos) a atteint environ 111 000 vues, a ajouté Kara Kelso.

🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. Kerry-Lynne Findlay a démissionné de son poste de cheffe du Parti conservateur de la C.-B. après 113 jours. Findlay a quitté son poste dimanche et le parti a nommé le député Lorne Doerkson chef par intérim quelques heures plus tard; ce départ survient après des turbulences au sein du caucus, dont l'expulsion récente du député John Rustad, note le rapport.
  2. Le chef par intérim Lorne Doerkson affirme que les Conservateurs de la C.-B. ont invité environ six députés à revenir. Doerkson a dit à Global News qu'il bénéficiait d'un solide soutien et que cinq députés avaient accepté l'invitation jusqu'à présent, ajoutant que le parti est prêt si le premier ministre David Eby déclenche une élection surprise cette semaine.
  3. Le maire de Vancouver, Ken Sim, a demandé à la province de ne pas appeler d'élection anticipée avant le vote municipal du 17 oct. Sim s'exprimait lors du lancement de sa plateforme ABC Vancouver et a cité une motion de la Union of B.C. Municipalities demandant à la province d'éviter le chevauchement des campagnes; ABC a annoncé des engagements incluant l'interdiction de la consommation à ciel ouvert de drogues dures et une hausse de 0 % de la taxe foncière en 2027.
  4. La C.-B. a déposé une poursuite en Californie contre OpenAI à propos de la fusillade à l'école de Tumbler Ridge. La procureure générale Niki Sharma allègue qu'OpenAI n'a pas informé les forces de l'ordre des menaces avant l'attaque du 10 févr. qui a fait huit morts; la province demande la divulgation des interactions du tireur avec ChatGPT et un appui pour les efforts de reconstruction, y compris une nouvelle Tumbler Ridge Secondary School.

🏈 Sports

  1. L'ailier Paul Cotter dit vouloir se faire une place avec les Vancouver Canucks. Cotter, 26 ans, a signé comme agent libre en juillet et a déclaré aux journalistes lors du camp d'entraînement à Penticton qu'il croit que l'équipe est « affamée » et que sa sixième saison dans la LNH sera l'occasion de devenir un joueur à plus grand impact, citant les entraîneurs Bruce Cassidy et Sheldon Keefe.
  2. Plusieurs joueurs de la LNH ont changé d'équipe pendant l'intersaison, dont Sergei Bobrovsky vers Toronto. La Presse canadienne note que Bobrovsky, 38 ans, a rejoint les Maple Leafs après avoir mené la Floride à des Coupes Stanley en 2024 et 2025; d'autres mouvements incluent Brady Tkachuk aux Panthers et Darnell Nurse à San Jose.
