🚑 Balita ng Kagyat at mga Insidente

🏛️ Pamahalaan at Pulitika

  1. Sinasabing pinarurusahan ng pamahalaang Ford ang pagtututol, ayon sa survey ng StrategyCorp sa 32 CAO ng mga munisipalidad ng Ontario. Tinukoy ng mga CAO ang isang “hatiin at sakupin” na pamamaraan at binanggit ang pagkabahala ng mga munisipalidad dahil sa mga panukalang AI data centre at pagkapuno ng mga pinagkukunan.
  2. Nakipagkita si Premier Doug Ford (Punong Ministro ng Ontario) kay Per Bank (CEO ng Loblaw) sa kanyang tahanan sa Etobicoke noong 17 Abril. Naganap ang pulong isang araw matapos tanggihan ni Ford ang pagsisikap ng oposisyon na i-regulate ang pagpepresyo sa grocery, ayon sa kalendaryo ng punong ministro na nakuha mula sa mga rekord ng freedom-of-information.
  3. Bumaba ang bilang ng nagtakbong trustee sa ilang school board na nasa ilalim ng provincial supervision, kasama ang sa Ottawa (pambansang kabisera ng Canada). Inilagay ni Education Minister Paul Calandra ang walong board sa ilalim ng kontrol ng probinsya; walang itinakdang hangganan ang supervision at nakaapekto ito sa desisyon ng mga kandidato, ayon kay Donna Dickson, dating konsehal na tumakbo para sa posisyon.
  4. Nagkakayanig ang mga kampanya para sa pagka-alkalde ukol sa planong transit ni Mark Sutcliffe (mayor). Pinagtatalunan ng lokal na mga kampanya sa Ottawa ang lawak at gastos ng mga mungkahi ni Sutcliffe bago ang eleksyong munisipal.

🏥 Kalusugan

  1. Layunin ng Ontario na ikonekta ang karagdagang 600,000 katao sa primary care. Nakatakda ang plano ng probinsya na abutin ang karagdagang 600,000 residente para mapabuti ang access sa doktor o primary-care teams.
  2. Maaaring na-expose sa impeksyon ang mga kliyente ng isang salon sa Carleton Place, nagbabala ang health unit. Naglabas ng exposure warning ang lokal na health unit na naka-ugnay sa mga kliyente ng salon.

💼 Ekonomiya at Negosyo

  1. Umalis ang pinuno ng ByWard Market District Authority (awtoridad ng pamilihan sa Ottawa) matapos ang pitong buwang panunungkulan. Ulat: nagbago ang pamunuan ng pamilihan sa downtown Ottawa matapos umalis ang pinuno pagkatapos ng pitong buwang serbisyo.
  2. Gagastusin ng Ontario ang 10 milyong dolyar ng Canada sa mga bagong programa para sa skills-development training. Inanunsyo ng probinsya ang $10 milyon na pamumuhunan para sa mga inisyatiba sa kasanayan at pagsasanay.

🏈 Palakasan

  1. Nanatiling walang panalo ang Ottawa Redblacks (koponan ng CFL) sa kalagitnaan ng season ngunit positibo pa rin. Wala pa ring panalo ang koponan sa puntong ito ng season, ayon sa lokal na coverage ng kanilang kampanya.
  2. Umusad sina Gabriela Dabrowski (mula Ottawa) at ang kanyang partner na si Barbora Krejcikova sa Round of 16 sa Cincinnati Open. Nakapasok ang pares sa huling 16 ng torneo sa Cincinnati, ayon sa ulat.
