🏛️ Gobierno y política

  1. La primera ministra de Quebec abierta a que vuelvan los vinos de EE. UU. a las góndolas, pero solo con ganancias comerciales. La primera ministra Christine Fréchette dice que los vinos estadounidenses pueden regresar si Ottawa asegura reducciones arancelarias para la industria forestal, el aluminio y la manufactura, y si se mantienen intactos el sistema de gestión de oferta y las protecciones del idioma en Quebec; una nueva ronda del 50% de aranceles de EE. UU. comenzará el 19 de agosto.
  2. Dos desfiles rivales del Orgullo en Montreal aumentaron la seguridad tras el ataque en Berlín. Los organizadores de Fierté Montréal reforzaron la seguridad para el desfile del centro de este año tras un ataque mortal en Berlín, y participantes, incluidos asistentes de larga data, señalaron las recientes leyes provinciales en Alberta, Saskatchewan y Columbia Británica que restringen la atención a jóvenes trans como parte de la escalada de tensiones.
  3. Productor de manzanas de Quebec desplegó un cañón antigranizo español de 160,000 dólares canadienses al sureste de Montreal. Maxime Brie, de Verger des Bois‑Francs, dice que el cañón —que se afirma es nuevo en Canadá— puede proteger hasta 80 hectáreas y está vinculado a una estación meteorológica SPAG monitoreada por meteorólogos en Brasil.

🏥 Salud

  1. Quebec confirma un segundo gato del área de Montreal con rabia de mapache; 3 personas más recibieron tratamiento post‑exposición. Salud Pública de la Montérégie informa que el segundo gato infectado fue encontrado en Saint‑Anicet, lo que eleva el total de rabia de mapache en Quebec en 2026 a 139 casos hasta la fecha; las autoridades recuerdan reportar animales muertos o desorientados.
  2. El Neuro trabaja en investigación dirigida por genes para un niño de 3 años con paraplejía espástica hereditaria. Investigadores del Neuro (Instituto Neurológico de Montreal) analizan los datos genéticos de Gurmoh Gill para desarrollar tratamientos que busquen frenar la progresión de la paraplejía espástica hereditaria (HSP), según Ziv Gan‑Or, director de investigación clínica.

🚨 Crimen y seguridad pública

  1. Décadas de quejas por brutalidad y racismo han profundizado la brecha de confianza entre la policía de Montreal y las comunidades. Una serie prolongada de quejas y reuniones que datan de más de una década, incluida una reunión en una comisaría en 2015 provocada por fotos de presuntas golpizas policiales, sustenta las preguntas continuas sobre si el Service de police de la Ville de Montréal investigó adecuadamente las acusaciones de perfilamiento racial.
  2. Juicio en Nueva York contra un hombre de Montreal acusado por la muerte de su hija de 9 años entra en su cuarta semana. Luciano Frattolin, de 46 años, está siendo juzgado en Elizabethtown (Nueva York) por homicidio en segundo grado y ocultamiento tras el hallazgo de Melina Frattolin, de 9 años, ahogada en un pantano; se ha declarado no culpable y está detenido sin derecho a fianza desde julio de 2025.
