The auditor general and integrity commissioner found favouritism toward developers, with $8.8 billion tied to land value shifts. Ford reversed the removals, triggering an RCMP probe as parties blame motives and call for clearer consultation before expediting projects.

Kingston mayor calls to close care hub after fatal assault
Kingston Ontario faces calls to clear an encampment and shut the Integrated Care Hub and safe injection site after a deadly assault near the hub. Police arrested a 47 year old man on two counts of second degree murder and one count of attempted murder. The Kingston Community Legal Clinic says the mayor's plan is premature and could worsen overdoses homelessness and shelter capacity. Mayor Bryan Paterson says the encampment fuels public safety concerns and pledges to address vulnerable residents with a safer approach.
