Mark Lazarus, NBC Universal president of television and streaming, quickly acknowledged the uncertainties in speaking to the ad representatives. At an earlier news conference, Fox executives talked about upcoming shows, but not when they would appear. The strike will likely mean a greater reliance on unscripted fare, said Allison Wallach, president of Fox’s unscripted programming.

Unseasonably hot temperatures continue in much of British Columbia with a heat warning issued for the north coast, including Kitimat and Terrace. The province’s River Forecast Centre also issued several high streamflow advisories for the Skeena River, the Upper Columbia and East and West Kootenay Rivers and others, as high temperatures accelerated the spring snow melt. People are being warned to stay away from fast moving waters and unstable banks. B.C.’s interior has been particularly hard-hit by flooding and fires this spring, including Cache Creek, where flooding earlier this month forced people from their homes and damaged highways.

McGee, one of the school’s college counselors, is the architect of the famous “rejection party.” To attend this party, you only need one thing — a printed letter of rejection from a college to which you applied. Bring the rejection letter, step right up to the shredder and push start. AdvertisementIn Braff’s story McGee says, “You have to print it out because there is no satisfaction in deleting an email.” After the shredder, the bonus round is an ice cream sundae, because after all, “ice cream heals all wounds.” It is a rejection party, not a wake. Harvard Business School rejected Warren Buffett, and Nobel Prize winner in medicine, Harold Varmus, was rejected by Harvard Medical School — twice. And hold on to the hurt— trust me, it will feel very good later.

Lithium, coined 'the new oil,' is shifting global markets. According to the United States Geological Survey, global consumption increased by 41 per cent from 2021 to 2022. In 2022, Canada produced an estimated 500 tonnes of lithium — an amount dwarfed by the tens of thousands of tonnes produced by global lithium powerhouses. Johnson notes that China — the world's third-largest producer of lithium — connects "the next link in the supply chain," often acting as the world's processor and manufacturer. China is also responsible for over half of the world's lithium refining.

Nabawi and her sister were among about 300 people who gathered in Richmond Hill on Mother’s Day at an outdoor event held to highlight the plight of women in Afghanistan. The Mother’s Day event specifically focused on the Hazara community, an ethno-religious minority group facing increased attacks since the Taliban took over. “We co-ordinated with other organizations to help the Hazara community because they have specific needs, as they are being discriminated against and persecuted,” said Halima Bahman, co-founder of Hazara Women organization. “They need specialized support.”Having fled the Taliban in 1998 over violent attacks against the Hazara, Bahman experienced trauma and persecution first-hand. Event volunteer Suhaila Akbarzada arrived in Canada with three children in 2017, having completed a Grade 4 level of education.
