Markus Hicks sentencing hearing continues with more victim impact statements
Two more statements detailed the toll Markus Hicks had on families and their loved ones in provincial court on Friday. As seen in November during the first part of victim impact statements, Hicks was once again brought into St. John’s from the Bishop’s Falls Correctional Centre to hear them in person. The mother of the two victims chose to deliver her statement in person, directly looking at Hicks the entire time. She opened by saying that this was not the first time she had to write a victim impact statement, having endured sexual abuse herself when she was younger. He added that he was a victim of sexual assault himself when he was younger.

So long, frozen juice from concentrate. The once-popular canned drink leaves shelves this year
The brand's frozen canned orange juice, lemonade, Fruitopia fruit punch and Five Alive juice blend will be discontinued by April, a spokesperson for parent company Coca-Cola confirmed to CBC News. Why frozen juice just diedIt’s the end of an era for popular frozen juice concentrate brands as Coca-Cola announces it is discontinuing Minute Maid, Fruitopia and FiveAlive products in Canada, over changing consumer habits. Juice brands are losing what beverage analysts refer to as share of throat. As other beverage makers get more innovative, frozen juice has largely stayed the same, she added. Elsewhere, the end of frozen juice might get overlooked.

Patriots, Seahawks battle for Super Bowl LX won’t be close
It sure felt like Sunday’s NFC Conference Championship game was the actual Super Bowl LX, didn’t it? The New England Patriots have caught every conceivable break this year, and they’ve needed every single one to get to the Super Bowl. Meanwhile, the Seattle Seahawks had to get past the Los Angeles Rams to win both the NFC West and the NFC championship. This will be a rematch of Super Bowl XLIX, held in Glendale, AZ just 11 years ago. Prediction: Seahawks 27, Patriots 17Predictions ScorecardI go into the Super Bowl 8-4 this postseason, so a winning record is guaranteed even if New England wins.

Chris Selley: Ontario minister gobsmacked by admired British public school, but we won't imitate it here
But by far the most interesting part of Calandra’s junket, from an Ontario parent’s point of view, was certainly his visit to London’s Michaela Community School. What that might mean for Ontario schools is much less clear; “nothing” is too plausible an answer. The school operates as a conscious repudiation of modern educational fads and an embrace of the old school: “private school ethos — no fees” is an unofficial motto. But Ontario parents can’t have any of this — except as a sort of background influence. If parents in London, England have that option, why can’t parents in London, Ont.?

Poilievre set to speak to Conservatives in Calgary, turning the page on a tough year for the party
CALGARY — Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will speak to party faithful on Friday evening in Calgary ahead of a leadership review that will decide his future . Poilievre will not only be trying to convince party members to cast a ballot in favour of keeping him on as leader as the party, but also turning the page on a difficult year for the party. A year ago, after the resignation of former prime minister Justin Trudeau, the Conservative party saw its massive polling lead crumble in the face of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s ascension as the new Liberal leader. In the subsequent April federal election, the party lost handily to Carney, while Poilievre lost his Ottawa-area seat, forcing him to run in an August byelection in rural Alberta. Poilievre is set to speak at 8:30 p.m.

David Eby says Alberta separatists are committing 'treason.' Is he right?
OTTAWA — British Columbia Premier David Eby sparked a firestorm of legal speculation about the foreign outreach of Alberta separatists on Thursday when he called the activities “treason” ahead of a first ministers’ meeting in Ottawa. Advertisement AdvertisementAdvertisement AdvertisementSome countries have criminal laws proscribing contact between unauthorized persons and foreign officials. However, there is no equivalent law in Canada barring private individuals from engaging in such communication. Advertisement AdvertisementAdvertisement AdvertisementEby isn’t the first public figure to use the word “treason” to characterize the group’s activities. Davies said he’s also taken steps to ensure he stays on the right side of relevant Canadian laws.
