The health board in Nunavik, the Inuit region of northern Quebec, issued a smoke alert for two communities on Tuesday as forest fires continue to affect air quality in the province. “The air quality is affected in some communities due to smoke plumes from forest fires in Quebec,” the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services (NRBHSS) said in a statement. The majority are clustered southwest of the Nunavik region and were listed as under control. However, throughout the summer, the winds have periodically driven the smoke as far south as Montreal, and as far north as Nunavik.

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--News Media Canada, the Canadian Association of Broadcasters and CBC/Radio-Canada (“the applicants”) have applied to Canada’s Competition Bureau to investigate Meta’s abuse of its dominant position, as evidenced by its decision to block news content from its digital platforms in Canada. Through Facebook and Instagram, which together account for more than 70 per cent of the online social media market in Canada, Meta effectively has substantial control over access to Canadian news. The applicants ask the Competition Bureau to use its investigative and prosecutorial tools to protect competition and prohibit Meta from continuing to block Canadians’ access to news content. We also deliver content in Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Punjabi and Tagalog, as well as both official languages, through Radio Canada International (RCI). We are leading the transformation to meet the needs of Canadians in a digital world.

Chinese and Russian vessels that recently operated near the Aleutian Islands should serve as a wake-up call to increase funding for military capabilities in the region, Alaska Senators Lisa Murkowski and Dan Sullivan said in a joint statement on Saturday. “The incursion by 11 Chinese and Russian warships operating together – off the coast of Alaska – is yet another reminder that we have entered a new era of authoritarian aggression led by the dictators in Beijing and Moscow,” Sullivan said. While the Russian and Chinese ships did not enter American waters, they were closely monitored by four U.S. destroyers and P-8 Poseidon aircraft, the WSJ report said. “This is a stark reminder of Alaska’s proximity to both China and Russia, as well as the essential role our state plays in our national defense and territorial sovereignty,” she said. “Last summer the Chinese and Russian navies conducted a similar operation off the coast of Alaska,” he said.
