Canada has entered into negotiations to procure Saab’s Airborne Early Warning & Control Aircraft.

This new system will help the Canadian Armed Forces to detect and deter threats across the Arctic — and support more than 3000 Canadian jobs, from the skilled trades to engineering and tech.

I worked as an intelligence contractor for the RCMP from 1999 to 2006. It was known then that org crime and criminals in general were in the airports. One attempt to investigate the degree to which this was a problem was shut down due to "privacy concerns" about the secure side work force.

A neurologist charged with 48 counts of sexual assault is acquitted, no prison time because the male judge believed that there were “valid medical reasons” for the assaults.

Operating in the High North means vast distances, changing conditions, and critical timing.

GlobalEye delivers early warning and situational awareness in demanding conditions.

Developed by Arctic neighbours—combining Swedish innovation with Canadian aircraft expertise.

Took the Gripen out for a ride yesterday.

Strong, smart and at supersonic speed - Sweden!

X – won’t you help me? Send this to someone who also should get themselves a piece of world class engineering and innovative adaptable software.

Welcome to Sweden, we are open for business.

“The new [Science Centre] project is priced at $1.04-billion over the next 30 years. Of this, design and construction costs make up approximately 75 per cent. This is more than double the $322-million the government initially promised in 2023. It also exceeds the government’s price tag for renovating the existing building in Don Mills.”

[Kenny Yu: Father killed in North York Gen Hospital @kenny_yu]

Dear All Who Care,

I am writing to you today with a frustrating and heartbreaking update regarding the investigation into the death of my father, Peter Yu. As you know, he was left unmonitored for 72 hours at North York General Hospital despite a cardiac emergency.

We relied on the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO)—the public regulator—to hold the doctors accountable. Instead, they are using a legal loophole to shut our family out of the process.

Today, the CPSO investigator officially told me that she will not allow me to see the doctors' written excuses or explanations for what happened during those 72 hours. She claimed it is "not their process" to show the family this evidence before they make a decision.

What is really happening:
The CPSO is using a bureaucratic trick (known as a "Section 75" investigation) to downgrade me from a legal "complainant" to a mere "witness." By doing this, they can run the investigation behind closed doors, keep the doctors' defenses a secret, and completely strip my family of our right to appeal their final decision to an independent judge.

They are protecting the hospital and the doctors from public scrutiny.

I am fighting back. Today, I issued a formal legal demand to the CPSO leadership, and I have escalated this matter to the office of our local MPP and the Health Critic.

Please share this update on your social media (Twitter/X, Facebook, Threads, etc) so the public sees how the CPSO operates in secret.

I will not let my father’s death be swept under the rug by a system designed to protect itself. Thank you for standing with my family. I will keep you updated.

With gratitude,

Kenny Yu.

Fix @OC_Transpo please. Ottawa commuters won’t survive this.

[Robert Fife @RobertFife]

From Canadian Press:
The federal government is ordering public servants to return to the office at least four days a week.
A Treasury Board message to deputy department heads says executives will have to work on-site five days per week starting May 4.
All other employees must be in the office four days a week as of July 6.
The message says the government will engage with unions to implement the plan.
Discussions will focus on issues such as assigned seating and occupational health and safety.
The message says more information will be shared "in due course."

[Sierra Fullerton @SierraFullerton]

When will the government finally clean house at the @cpso_ca ? Why will the regulator only suspend predatory Ontario Doctors when it becomes front page news? A patient committed suicide before criminal charges were laid... @SylviaJonesMPP @MarjoriePLC https://t.co/oc8f1NdLGQ

@amazingmap You can also do this in Toronto.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Today, we are opening an entirely new and truly meaningful chapter in our relations—relations between Ukraine and Sweden, and more broadly, overall security relations in Europe.

Today, we have the first document signed between our countries, paving the way for Ukraine to acquire a substantial fleet of Swedish-made fighter jets—Gripens. These are great aircraft, strong aviation platforms capable of performing a wide range of missions. Everyone can see what threats they help counter. We expect that the future contract will enable us to obtain at least 100 of these jets.

I thank @SwedishPM Ulf Kristersson and Sweden for their readiness to cooperate on this matter, as well as the Saab company, which manufactures the Gripens.

A Kelowna man was convicted of domestic violence charges and then released ... where he then allegedly murders his estranged wife within hours. None of these outrages are anomalies. They are all the expected consequences of a system working as intended.

Report to police was that a girl was buried "somewhere" because her stepmom slammed her head into a wall (leaving a hole in the wall).

I found her GoFundMe but I can't share it because of the pub ban. Can't even write her name. Her death is semi-private.

@WilsonLo24 Yes! That's the one. This week was the worst commuting I've had in the nearly decade I've lived here. My trip time in the morning was doubled (1h 40 mins) both days I was in office. Late buses, broken train, traffic on the parkway...the works.

[Sierra Fullerton @SierraFullerton]

First day of back to school and @OC_TranspoHelps has already given up. How late can they make everyone in the city today? I'm at 25mins and counting....

[Sierra Fullerton @SierraFullerton]

@vittoria_rosa Can't wait to see it!

[Dean Tester @DeanTester]

Have they considered making transit actually good?
