Canadian refugee applicant detained in U.S. says he crossed border by mistake

A Bangladeshi man who had been living in Canada as a refugee applicant says he accidentally crossed into the United States earlier this year and is now being held in an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Buffalo after Canada declined to take him back. Mahin Shahriar told The Canadian Press he entered the U.S. on May 12 after what he believes was a human trafficking attempt. Shahriar said he was struggling with depression when a friend near Montreal offered him a short stay to recover.

Surrey’s proposal is backed by the City of Surrey and the Surrey Police Board. SPS plans

Dawson Creek declares local emergency as drought strains city’s water supply

The City of Dawson Creek has declared a state of local emergency in response to a worsening drought that has pushed water reserves to critically low levels. Mayor Darcy Dober said the measure was necessary after years of conservation efforts could no longer offset the impact of consecutive dry seasons. The declaration allows the city to seek provincial support and resources as it works to identify temporary water sources and protect essential community services. City officials emphasized that Dawson Creek is not yet out of water but is taking proactive steps to avoid that outcome. The Kiskati

B.C. report warns youth suicide rates remain unchanged as province lags in prevention strategy

A new report commissioned by British Columbia’s chief coroner warns that despite years of concern and investment, the province has made little progress in preventing youth suicide. The findings echo long-standing national data showing that suicide remains one of the leading causes of death for young people across Canada. The review, led by Dr. Jatinder Baidwan, examined the deaths of 435 individuals aged nine to 25 between 2019 and 2023. It found that suicide continues to be the second most common cause of death among children and youth in B.C., and the third among those aged 19 to 29. Those

Flights delayed after B.C. airport hacked with pro-Hamas messages

The airport in Kelowna, B.C., says some flights were delayed after its terminal information screens and public address system were hacked, with social media posts showing pro-Hamas messages on the displays. The posts show screens at Kelowna International Airport saying "Israel lost the war, Hamas won," and calling U.S. President Donald Trump a pig. Other videos depict slogans being played over the airport's public announcement system. The airport has confirmed the incident on its website, adding that staff successfully removed the unauthorized messaging by a "third party." The update posted a
