Osnaburgh House Near Hudson Bay Post To Close
After 177 years on the Albany River route, Osnaburgh House in northwestern Ontario will close at summer’s end as Hudsons Bay Co moves its store eight miles to the road to share in new traffic from Ignace. The region, once a busy trade hub, faces road access via a newly opened route and government plans to relocate Cree and Ojibway people, with new mill, box factory, and Indian school projects looming. Charles Livingston, 26, the manager from the Hebrides, oversees fur trade and welfare efforts while his family adapts to changing prospects.

Disturbances in Swaziland stem from a labour dispute
Swaziland has seen unrest centered on a wage dispute at the Havelock Asbestos mine. Swazi authorities paused strikes for 21 days to seek conciliation, but leaders refused to halt, prompting police action and the deployment of British troops as a supplementary force. A commission of enquiry was set up on May 29 to examine the dispute’s causes and the mine’s wage structure. Law and order now prevail as troops restore quiet and authorities pursue resolution.
