Poilievre vows deadline for Ring of Fire permits and road plan
Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, visiting Sudbury, pledges a six month deadline to approve all federal mining permits in Ontario’s Ring of Fire and a one billion dollar three year program to build roads linking mines to highways and First Nations communities. He says funds come from cutting Liberal waste and notes the region’s minerals could boost national security and NATO defence spending.

Dairy faces long glass bottle shortage at Slate River
Neebing's Slate River Dairy reports a relief when 90 glass one litre bottles were returned but overall supply remains tight. The Canadian supplier Stanpac cites a Canada wide spike in demand and slower returns as factors, with a 10 week wait for new shipments. Local depots warn bottles are in short supply as customers prefer reusable glass and recall rates lag.
