  2. 法院批准西捷航空(WestJet)在空乘性骚扰集体诉讼中支付450万加元和解金。 不列颠哥伦比亚省一名法官本周批准了这笔450万加元的和解;原告称平均每人获得不到500加元,和解还要求西捷委托进行独立的骚扰评估。

  1. 艾伯塔选举管理局称 Voterlink 未在10月19日公投前删除选民登记。 首席选举官戈登·麦克卢尔(Gordon McClure)告诉艾伯塔居民,Voterlink 无法删除登记,且过去在省选中投过票且未搬家或未改名的人很可能仍然在册。
  2. 省府推迟今年稍晚实施新的学校旗帜限制与每周国歌要求。 与春季法案相关的规则——包括部长有权命名学校——原定于9月1日生效,然而教育部表示为便于咨询沟通,旗帜和国歌相关变更将推迟到今年稍后实施;其他条款,例如新的学生行为准则,仍将于下月开始执行。
  3. 皇家骑警在红鹿缴获超1公斤疑似芬太尼与1.5万加元现金。 7月的一次交通拦截及随后在兰开斯特社区的搜查中,警方缴获超过一公斤疑似芬太尼、约334克可卡因、24克冰毒和1.5万加元现金;一名22岁卡尔加里男子被起诉,23岁的拉文德·辛格·戈萨尔(Ravinder Singh Gosal)未出庭。
