Burnaby RCMP’s Criminal Collision Investigation Team continues to investigate a fatal collision that resulted in the death of a motorcyclist.

Just after 2:00 a.m., on Sunday June 19, Burnaby RCMP frontline officers responded to a report of a single motorcycle crash near Willingdon Avenue and Sanderson Way. The motorcycle was travelling southbound on Willingdon Avenue at the time of the crash, which is believed to have occurred at approximately 1:55 a.m. A 22-year-old motorcyclist was pronounced dead on scene.

Alberta government to introduce back-to-work law for striking teachers

The Alberta government is preparing to introduce emergency legislation that would end the province-wide teachers’ strike and require educators to return to their classrooms. Premier Danielle Smith said the strike, which began on October 6, has disrupted students’ learning for too long and must be resolved through government action if no last-minute agreement is reached. The government’s plan would compel thousands of striking teachers to resume work immediately. Negotiations between the province and the Alberta Teachers’ Association have stalled over wage increases and classroom condit

Canada expected to lose measles-free status after year-long outbreak

Canada is set to lose its international recognition as a country free of endemic measles, following a year-long outbreak that began in New Brunswick and spread across several provinces. The nation first eliminated measles in 1998 and maintained that status for over two decades, meaning new infections were typically linked to international travel rather than local transmission. That changed last fall, when domestic spread continued beyond 12 months — a key threshold used by the World Health Organization to determine endemic status. Since October 2024, more than 5,000 people across Canada have

Trump Imposes Extra 10% Tariff on Canadian Goods After Ontario Anti-Tariff Ad

U.S. President Donald Trump says he is adding a 10 per cent surcharge on imports from Canada, citing frustration over an Ontario government advertisement that criticized American trade tariffs. The ad, which used a quote from former U.S. president Ronald Reagan, aired during the opening game of the World Series and called for fairer treatment of Canadian products. Trump announced the additional tariff on his social media platform Truth Social while en route to Malaysia aboard Air Force One. He said Ontario Premier Doug Ford should have removed the advertisement sooner, despite Ford’s commitm
