野火、酒店费用丑闻与车队案 · 渥太华一周回顾

49 篇文章 18 小时前 14

🚑 突发与事件

  1. 上萨拉旅馆老板描述在西北安大略野火逼近时险些丧生。 Rylie Isaacs Laforge 报道,6月30日靠近千湖旅馆(Lac Des Mille Lodge)发生野火,旅馆上空滚过浓烟后进行了撤离;自然资源部数据显示,截至周四晚报告,西北地区有129起活动野火,其中62起尚未受控。

  2. 联邦调查人员在列车“被火包围”后对加拿大国家铁路展开调查。 运输加拿大(Transport Canada)称正在就视频显示靠近阿姆斯特朗(Armstrong,安大略)的列车被火团围困一事,监督加拿大国家铁路(Canadian National)是否违反《铁路安全法》;工会称列车员需接受吸入烟雾的治疗。

  3. 省长道格·福特在北部大规模撤离期间访问桑德贝。 福特在桑德贝会见撤离民众和第一响应者,称官员已在约40次任务中撤离约300人;他报告全省有191起活动野火,其中73起被认为失控,91起在观察中。

🚨 犯罪与公共安全

  1. 上诉法院认定车队组织者帕特·金犯有恐吓罪;下令重新量刑。 法庭裁定金与2022年2月渥太华抗议相关的一项恐吓指控成立,并在推翻其早前部分裁决后,要求重新进行量刑听证。

  2. 在9月量刑前,针对弗兰克·斯特罗纳赫的一项性侵定罪宣布审判无效。 辩护律师称一项民事投诉包含与审判证据不符的细节,导致与前雇员相关的性侵指控宣告审判无效;斯特罗纳赫此前因历史性罪行已有定罪,仍将面临量刑。

  3. 多伦多达弗林购物中心外电动滑板车相撞致一人死亡。 警方称骑手在布卢尔街以南发生碰撞后受致命伤;司机留在现场,达弗林街部分路段在急救人员处置期间封闭。

🏛️ 政府与政局

  1. 福特称在191起野火肆虐下无人遇难是“奇迹”;数社区撤离。 省长表示有81起火情失控,已部署150多支救援队、直升机和空中灭火机;阿姆斯特朗等社区及若干原住民保留地已实施撤离令。

  2. 旅游部长斯坦·乔因逾1.6万加元酒店报销争议辞职;省长称将退款。 乔承认三年内为多伦多酒店住宿报销超过16,000加元,尽管他住处靠近皇后公园,报道称他在辞职前已偿还该笔款项;省长道格·福特称所有有类似申报的省议员将向纳税人退款。

  3. 文件显示福特政府去年曾寻求放宽省议员酒店规则,应对费用申报。 会议记录显示,包括保罗·卡兰德拉(Paul Calandra)和史蒂夫·克拉克(Steve Clark)在内的部长建议将“特殊情况”津贴从极端天气扩展到夜间开会,这一变动与随后部分进步保守党省议员的酒店申报有关。

  4. 安大略男子蜱虫传播的无形体病发病后住院10天,省方警告蜱虫疾病上升。 彼得·雷德曼在被蜱虫叮咬后出现高热、呕吐和低血压,被诊断为无形体病(anaplasmosis);省卫生部提醒公众采取预防措施,因为莱姆病和其他蜱虫传播病例今夏上升。

🌦️ 天气与道路

  1. 野火烟雾让多伦多的空气质量继续居世界最差行列;官员称可能“短暂好转”。 环境部更新了橙色空气质量警告,西北安大略的烟雾持续,IQAir 报告空气极不健康,官员警告周末前空气质量可能再次恶化。

  2. 南安大略部分地区短时发布并解除龙卷风警报。 环境部约在中午12:20对米尔顿以东可能产生龙卷风的一场强烈雷暴发布警报,风暴以每小时40公里向东南移动,警告警报生效时应立即就近避难。

🎨 社区与文化

  1. 后备四分卫特雷·福特将为哈密尔顿对阵多伦多首发;回顾其加拿大足球联盟生涯。 特雷·福特,28岁,来自尼亚加拉瀑布城,将为哈密尔顿猛虎(Hamilton Tiger-Cats)第24次在加拿大足球联盟(CFL)首发;他此前为埃德蒙顿麋鹿(Edmonton Elks)首发23次,目前在哈密尔顿完成8次传球中的8次,合计59码。

🚑 (附加事件报道)

  1. 阿姆斯特朗附近列车员逃离野火火团后,铁路安全与工作场所调查持续。 就业和社会发展部正与运输加拿大协调,调查是否违反健康与安全法规;工会敦促加拿大国家铁路暂停在活跃野火区的运营,运输加拿大警告可能施加运营限制。
