Aided from the air by an RCMP helicopter and with multiple officers on the ground, the Nanaimo RCMP impounded 4 dirt bikes and 3 vehicles for a wide range of driving offences.

Prime Minister Mark Carney has appointed Chrystia Freeland as Canada's new special envoy for the reconstruction of Ukraine. While Freeland announced her resignation as transport minister on social media today, she will remain in the House of Commons as an MP until the next election. She left today's regular cabinet meeting smiling and talking with Carney, but neither answered questions from reporters stationed outside the room. Freeland has been one of the most prominent government advocates for Ukraine on the world stage, and spearheaded efforts to seize Russian financial holdi

Justice Minister Sean Fraser says he will introduce new hate crime legislation in the coming days, with reforms on bail and violent crime sentencing to follow. Fraser says the legislation will go beyond campaign commitments of protecting religious institutions from "obstruction and intimidation" and include measures for the broader community. During the election, the Liberals promised to make it a criminal offence to obstruct access to or threaten people visiting a place of worship, school or community centre. Police reports of hate crimes have been on the rise since the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas att

Ethan Katzberg won gold with a competition-record throw at the world athletics championships today as Canada's recent dominance in hammer throw continued. Katzberg's second throw of 84.70 metres just stayed inbounds and shattered the previous championship record of 83.63. The 23-year-old from Nanaimo, B.C., also eclipsed his own Canadian record as he defended his world title and added to his Olympic gold from the 2024 Paris Games. Germany's Merlin Hummel took silver at 82.77 metres and Bence Halasz of Poland earned bronze at 82.69 metres. Katzberg's performance came a day after C

Robert Redford has died at 89. The Hollywood golden boy who became an Oscar-winning director, liberal activist and godfather for independent cinema died in Utah on Tuesday. His publicist didn't immediately provide a cause of death. After rising to stardom in the 1960s, Redford was one of the biggest stars of the '70s with such films as ``The Candidate,'' ``All the President's Men'' and ``The Way We Were.'' Redford played the wily outlaw opposite Paul Newman in 1969's ``Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,'' a box-office smash from which Redford's Sundance Institute and festival got its name.

Transport Minister Chrystia Freeland is expected to leave cabinet for a special envoy role with Ukraine, according to multiple media reports. The announcement could come as soon as later today. Freeland joined Prime Minister Mark Carney's cabinet meeting this morning in Ottawa but blew past the TV cameras and did not answer any questions about her political future.

Freeland sought Liberal Party leadership earlier
