For decades, Cuba's tourism sector has enjoyed a reputation as an "economic locomotive" — a term used by authorities who saw it as the lifeblood of the Caribbean island country's economy. How tourism reshaped the Cuban economyBefore the 1959 Cuban Revolution, Cuba's tourism industry was largely privatized, much of it owned and exploited by the American mafia as a gangster's paradise. Around that time there were roughly 100,000 to 120,000 direct jobs in Cuban tourism, and close to 500,000 workers were directly and indirectly linked to tourism, Spadoni noted. The country's tourism sector has been on the decline for several years, with the number of international visitors down more than 50 per cent between 2018 and 2024. Cuba's tourism industry has been challenged both by government mismanagement and by a series of external factors, including U.S. travel restrictions, the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's war in Ukraine.

may have given rise to concern about Canadian school safety, but there is inevitable anxiety that goes with reviewing security measures and concern about mental health is paramount among experts. Schools across Canada already have intense safety measures in place. Durham Regional Police are looking into four incidents at an elementary school, where security events were hastily declared. That could include writing cards and letters to people in Tumbler Ridge, or organize fundraising events for them. Or it could involve doing an art project to honour the community of Tumbler Ridge and posting it on social media.

TLDRCanada has officially joined the European Union’s Security Action for Europe (SAFE) program, offering loans to member states to invest in defence capabilities.
