This year, that player is Gabe Jacas, and he’s quietly one of my favorite EDGE fits for the Dallas Cowboys. Jacas plays strong, stays disciplined, and finishes more reps than he loses. Jacas isn’t chasing sacks on every snap, he will be collapsing space, closing escape lanes, and forcing hurried throws. Gabe Jacas’ Draft ValueWe all know Dallas is lacking a second-round pick. I see a George Karlaftis type of player in Gabe Jacas.
SC's CEO is Zachary Witkoff, son of Trump's Mideast and Russia envoy, New York realtor Steve Witkoff. The stablecoin was created by World Liberty Financial, a crypto firm co-founded by Witkoff, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and Barron Trump. And crypto presents a clear, hard to trace method for enriching the Trump and Witkoff families. No country has received more favours from the Trump administration than Qatar. "The message is the same throughout the Trump administration since Week 1," said Payne.

According to Earthquakes Canada, the quake had a magnitude of 2.5. Seismologist Allison Bent, with Earthquakes Canada, says the region northwest of Miramichi is probably the most active for earthquakes in Atlantic Canada.

Donald Trump barely shrugged when asked about the deal Prime Minister Mark Carney forged with China this week. I mean, it's a good thing for him to sign a trade deal. If you can get a deal with China, you should do that, right?” said Trump at the White House on Thursday. U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday it's a 'good thing' that Carney signed a deal with China. But he too wonders if the Americans are hoping to glean important information for their own trade deal.
Nobody said tanking was easy, and while the benefits are obvious, maybe these guys could throw us a bone? That road trip couldn't have gone any worse for the Canucks, honestly. I am already feeling uneasy at just how bad they're going to look tonight. Unfortunate for him and the Oilers, but potentially a ray of light for the Canucks if they hope to not hit double digits on this losing skid. GAME DAY CHATTER#CanucksHere's a fun and curious rumour for your Saturday morning.
Two years after a “pause” on new approvals for wind and solar farms was lifted, 14 major renewable energy projects have yet to break ground in southeastern Alberta. The Brooks solar field near the southern Alberta city was one of the first utility-scale solar projects in the province when it opened in 2017. Both will affect an energy project’s business plans, leading renewables companies to put work on hold. Worry over rural tax baseThose two municipalities are home to 60,000 oil and gas wells considered to be marginally economical, according to provincial government reports. According to the Business Renewables Centre, 16 Alberta municipalities each received more than $1 million in tax revenue from renewable power projects operating in their jurisdictions.
On Friday, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a three-year China deal that will relax tariffs on canola, peas and seafood in exchange for allowing the import of 49,000 Chinese-made electric vehicles per year. Before announcing it, Carney said that this new friendship “sets us up well for the new world order.”Which has me wondering: What’s the plan if China invades Taiwan? Are we going to keep the trade going while issuing a multitude of empty statements condemning the conflict in the South China Sea? In 2023, President Xi Jinping had instructed the army to be ready by 2027 for a Taiwan invasion, according to U.S. intelligence at the time. Carney seemed to be aware of the risks a year ago when he identified China as our biggest security threat.

Unless there are stricter mechanisms for accountability, nothing prevents what you are about to read from happening again and again. Take the procurement and purchase of electric buses in Edmonton and Calgary. CBC reported that by late 2023, only 16 of Edmonton’s 60 electric buses were fit to be on the roads on a given morning. In August 2025, Calgary Transit announced the procurement of 120 new electric buses and linked the decision to federal support and diversification of fuel sources. Edmonton and Calgary committed sums large enough to change the trajectory of other urgent files, then treated accountability as optional.
After that date, gun owners who possess one of the more than 2,500 makes and models of guns which the government has deemed too dangerous for public use will not be able to receive compensation. Once submitted, participating firearms owners would be provided with information on collection efforts sometime in the spring, the department says. Failing to participate would expose firearms owners to consequences including the possible revocation of their license, the minister said. Officials who briefed reporters confirmed that interested firearms owners in those jurisdictions would still be able register, given that the program was being rolled out nationally. Whether to include versions of the SKS, a popular hunting rifle, on the government’s list of “assault-style” firearms remains under review.

Seizure overview and basic facts Local law enforcement recovered approximately 230 pounds of clams taken from a Coupeville beach in what officials called an unusually large illegal harvest. Larger hauls increase the ecological and economic stakes—removing a greater biomass from local beds can affect reproduction and local harvest opportunities. Successful response required law enforcement, resource managers, and possibly public-health or environmental staff to coordinate quickly. Enforcement capacity and funding needs The seizure spotlights the resource demands placed on law enforcement and resource agencies when responding to substantial illegal harvests. Be ready to report, participate in local budget and policy discussions, and help ensure Island County’s beaches remain productive and accessible for legal harvesters and future generations.
