A man who allegedly drove a pickup truck through the gates of Rideau Hall in Ottawa now faces charges, but police are still not saying anything about his motive.

He is identified as 46 year old Corey Hurren, a member of the military reserves.

He was arrested by RCMP not far from the front door of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's current residence.

Trudeau was not there when the alleged incident occurred on Thursday morning.

The RCMP say Hurren had several weapons on him, including at least one gun.

He faces 22 charges, including one for uttering threats.

The rest are weapons charges.

He appears in court again July 17th and will remain in custody.

Alberta Premier Smith urges talks as Alberta teachers launch provincewide strike

Alberta's teachers are off the job and PremierDanielle Smith is urging them to come back to the bargaining table. Smith, speaking to reporters in Montreal, says the two sides are not far apart and expects fixing classroom complexity issues to be the focus of future talks. The 51,000 members of the Alberta Teachers' Association went on strike as promised this morning to back demands for a better deal. The labour action impacts more than 700,000 students across 2,500 public, separate and francophone schools. The teachers overwhelmingly voted against the government's latest offer, w

Three men arrested, charged in extortion shooting in Surrey, B.C.: police

Three men have been arrested and charged on shooting allegations that police in Surrey, B.C., say are believed to be linked to an extortion investigation. Police say charges stem from an early-morning shooting on March 27 in a residential area of the city where multiple shots were fired at the home. The service says in a statement that no one was hurt and that its investigation eventually led police to believe the shooting was "related to an ongoing extortion investigation." All three accused are in their twenties and police say Mandeep Gidda, Nirmaandeep Cheema and Arundeep Singh are due to a

Pivotal talks between Israel and Hamas begin in Egypt on eve of Gaza war anniversary

Israeli and Hamas officials have launched indirect talks in Egypt on a potential ceasefire in Gaza. They are discussing the U.S.-drafted peace plan to end the war on the eve of its second anniversary. The negotiations focus on a ceasefire's first stage. That includes the partial withdrawal of Israeli forces and the release of hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. U.S. Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are expected to join. Many uncertainties remain about the plan including the disarmament of Hamas and the future governance of Gaza. Israel continues with airstr

French PM resigns hours after naming government, plunging France further into political chaos

France's new prime minister, Sebastien Lecornu, has resigned just a day after naming his government and less than a month in office. The French presidency announced Monday that President Emmanuel Macron accepted his resignation. Lecornu's choice of ministers faced criticism across the political spectrum. His decision to bring back former Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire to serve at the defense ministry was particularly controversial. Other key positions were largely unchanged from the previous Cabinet with Bruno Retailleau as interior minister, Jean-Noel Barrot as foreign minister and Gerald D

Classes suspended in Alberta as provincewide teachers strike set to begin today

Some 51,000 members of the Alberta Teachers Association are poised to begin a strike today. The labour action, if it goes ahead, will impact more than 700,000 students across 2,500 public, separate and francophone schools. Most school boards _ including those in Edmonton, Calgary, Fort McMurray and Lethbridge _ have sent notices telling families that barring an 11th-hour deal, classes would be paused beginning Monday. Both sides appeared far apart late last week but the union said Friday they had resumed ``exploratory conversations.'' Teachers rejected the government's latest offer
