A Canadian Senate vote awarded senators a tax free 153 dollar daily bonus for attending sessions, on top of a 62000 dollar salary and 9800 dollar allowance. Critics warn the move entrenches self spending and could push the budget toward 1.5 million if all 104 senators claim it.
A Angus Reid poll finds Canadians worry about the environment but resist major life changes. Most oppose banning city car use, fuel taxes, and urban charges, while refundable deposits on containers and targeted recycling funding gain support.
The choice of Bruce Phillips as privacy commissioner draws opposition from Liberal MPs who warn the independent office must be nonpartisan. Critics argue his past partisan actions, including naming Liberal critics to reporters, undermine impartiality despite government assurances.
Ottawa notes that Canada’s provincial premiers have not boosted reputations during Meech Lake negotiations. They appear on TV after long sessions, often answering shouted questions from media. Some premiers were sidelined, six of ten lacking a vital role in the talks.
The piece assesses Canada’s premiers during Meech Lake negotiations. It highlights Ontario’s David Peterson as bland and limited, Alberta’s Don Getty’s locker room vibe, Nova Scotia’s John Buchanan's avuncular steadiness, and Manitoba’s Gary Filmon gaining respect by pushing hard for concessions.
A SF sidewalk theft ends with a cab driver pinning suspect Ocie McClure against a wall. He breaks a leg in the struggle and receives an eight year prison sentence, while the purse owner is hospitalized. The piece casts McClure as a victim of circumstance in a harsh society.
Royko portrays Ocie McClure and public figures as perpetual victims in a satirical piece. He asserts a $5 million damages claim against a cabdriver and cab company for leg pain and cites a chain of hypothetical consequences to critique modern fault-claim culture.
The Canadian Track and Field Association signals readiness to allow Johnson to compete again in September, despite a lifetime ban on federal funding, if the Dubin inquiry's recommendations mandate strict anti-doping reforms for athletes coaches and officials. The report's results could redefine amateur sport for Canada and influence Johnson's Olympic prospects.
