🚨 Krimen at Pampublikong Kaligtasan

  1. Ayon sa pulisya ng Gatineau, ang 52-anyos na pinaghihinalaang ‘handyman’ ay maaaring may iba pang biktima sa Gatineau at Ottawa. Inaresto ang lalaki noong 20 Nobyembre 2025 matapos ang mga ulat tungkol sa nawawalang panloob mula sa mga tirahan; naniniwala na ngayon ang mga imbestigador na maaaring may karagdagang biktima sa Manoir des Tremble at iba pang parte ng Gatineau at Ottawa. Hinihiling ng pulisya sa sinumang may impormasyon na makipag-ugnayan sa kanilang yunit.
  2. Isang 73-anyos na babae ang namatay pagkatapos ng home invasion noong Sabado sa London, Ont.; isang 40-anyos ang hinaharap ng kaso ng second-degree murder. Ayon sa pulisya, tinusok ang babae sa paglusob at namatay sa ospital; ang akusado ay sinampahan ng mga kasong kabilang ang break and enter, pag-atake sa isang pulis, at obstruction.
  3. Si Nathan Bell hinatulan ng 10 taon at siyam na buwan dahil sa pagpapaputok ng baril sa Moss Park shooting. Napatunayang walang sala si Bell sa first-degree murder noong 22 Mayo matapos ang anim na linggong jury trial pero humarap siya sa sentensya na may pag-amin sa tatlong bilang ng paglabag sa mga kautusan ukol sa armas at nahatulan sa pagpapaputok ng baril na may layuning managas.

🎨 Komunidad at Kultura

  1. Ipinagdiriwang ng FAN EXPO Canada ang ika-30 taon nito sa Metro Toronto Convention Centre. Binuksan ang kombensiyon noong Huwebes, ipinagdiriwang ang milestone ng Pokémon kasabay ng FAN EXPO, at tampok ang LEGO AT-RT na gawa mula sa higit 142,000 bricks na umabot ng mahigit 1,000 oras ng paggawa.
  2. Bukas na ang Paranormal Cirque Nightmare sa Kingston sa ilalim ng malaking tolda na pinaghalo ang sirko at horror. Ang touring production—nilikhang Italy noong 2014—ay naghahalo ng aerial acrobatics, cabaret at horror; ayon sa ensemble member na si Momi, naglilibot ang palabas sa Canada at U.S.; ang performer na si Garpej Wrete ay apat na taon nang nagturok sa produksiyon.
  3. Binatikos ng mga pinuno ng Indigenous ang executive order ng Estados Unidos na pinapangalanang muli ang Lake Ontario bilang ‘Lake America’. Tinawag ni Wendat Nation Grand Chief Pierre Picard na “hindi katanggap-tanggap” ang hakbang at sinabi niyang humiling siya ng pagpupulong kay U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra; tiniyak naman ni Prime Minister Mark Carney na ang lawa “ay kilala bilang Lake Ontario ‘noon, ngayon at palagi.’”
