Shiromani Akali Dal leaders may face increased difficulties. Rebel leaders of the Shiromani Akali Dal have decided to meet Jathedar Sri Akal Takht Sahib in the next one or two days to ensure the strict implementation of the order issued by Sri Akal Takht Sahib on December 2, 2024.

Reports suggest that these leaders held a meeting at the house of Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa on Tuesday, where former Shiromani Committee president Bibi Jagir Kaur, Gurpartap Singh Wadala, Prof. Prem Singh Chandumajra, and several other leaders were present.

During the meeting, the leaders expressed concern that the Akali Dal leadership is running its own membership campaign instead of initiating the party membership drive under the supervision of the seven-member committee formed by Sri Akal Takht Sahib.

It was decided that this issue would be brought to the attention of the Jathedar Sahib of Sri Akal Takht Sahib in writing.

Poilievre urges Ottawa to fast-track Pacific pipeline amid U.S. move on Venezuelan oil

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is calling on the federal Liberal government to immediately approve a new oil pipeline to Canada’s Pacific Coast, warning that recent actions by the United States in Venezuela could threaten Canadian oil exports to American refineries. In a letter addressed to Prime Minister Mark Carney and posted publicly on Tuesday, Poilievre said the U.S. decision to effectively end sanctions and move toward reviving Venezuela’s oil sector has shifted global energy dynamics. He argued that a resurgence in Venezuelan heavy crude production could directly compete with

Quebec schools enforce formal address rules as part of new student conduct codes

Students across Quebec are returning to classrooms under new rules that require them to address teachers and school staff using formal titles, as part of a province-wide push to reinforce civility in schools. The Quebec government announced last year that both public and private schools had until January to adopt updated codes of conduct. These codes must require students to address teachers as “Mr.” or “Ms.” and, in French-language settings, use the formal form of “you” when speaking to staff. The conduct codes are also required to outline expectations for respectful behaviour bet

Maduro appears in U.S. court as lawyers prepare to challenge drug trafficking case

Deposed Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro made his first appearance in a United States courtroom Monday, facing drug trafficking and narco-terrorism charges that U.S. authorities say justified his arrest and transfer to New York. Maduro appeared briefly before a federal judge in Manhattan for an initial procedural hearing, a routine step that marks the beginning of what is expected to be a lengthy legal battle. His defence team is widely expected to argue that he cannot be prosecuted in the U.S. because of immunity claims tied to his status as a former head of state. Earlier in the day, Mad
