Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says it took too long for Hockey Canada's leadership to step down and their departure now is only the first step to transforming the culture of hockey in Canada. The president of Hockey Canada and the board of directors left their roles Tuesday following months of pressure for change at the top of the organization amid questions of their handling of abuse and sexual assault cases. Trudeau says there is a culture to change in the sport to protect employees, athletes and children across the country. He and Sport Minister Pascale St-Onge have been demanding the resi

The federal government has not bowed to demands to designate Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organization. But Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says it is going to permanently bar about 10,000 members of the Guards from entering Canada. Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland had a message for all Iranian-Canadians. Iranian police have violently cracked down on protests across the country following the death of 22 year old Mahsa Amini last month. She died two days after she was arrested by Iran's morality police for allegedly wearing her hijab too loosely.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has visited PEI to meet with some residents and see first-hand some of the extensive damage caused by post-tropical storm Fiona. Fiona left a trail of destruction across a wide swath of Atlantic Canada, stretching from Nova Scotia's eastern mainland to Cape Breton, Prince Edward Island and southwestern Newfoundland. Trudeau says some infrastructure was completely overwhelmed by the storm and Canada will need to plan for future climate-related disasters. Trudeau is also heading to two communities in Cape Breton later today, Glace Bay and Sydney.

People from across the Maritimes, eastern Quebec and southwestern Newfoundland are feeling low as the economic impact of storm Fiona's wrath is still being tallied. Power is still out for 266,000 homes and businesses throughout Atlantic Canada. At the height of the storm on Saturday, more than 500-thousand were in the dark, including 80 per cent of customers in Nova Scotia and 90 per cent of those in PEI. Even as crews work around the clock, some utility companies warn that it could be several days before the lights come back on.

Longtime diplomat Jennifer May will work to rebuild Ottawa's relationship with Beijing as Canada's new ambassador to China. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has named May to the post, saying she will be advancing Canada's work to stand up for democratic values, human rights and the rule of law. The post has been vacant since last December, when Dominic Barton stepped down following the release of Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig. The ``two Michaels'' had been detained in China for nearly three years in what was widely seen as political retaliation after Canadian authorities arrested Huawei exec

Atlantic Canada is preparing for hurricane-force winds, heavy rainfall and potential power outages this weekend. Hurricane Fiona is poised to become a ``very powerful'' post-tropical storm by the time it makes landfall in eastern Nova Scotia. The Canadian Hurricane Centre says the storm will pass through Cape Breton early tomorrow before making its way to Quebec's Lower North Shore and southeastern Labrador early Sunday. The prime minister says the federal government is standing by, ready to help as hurricane Fiona approaches the Maritimes. The storm could be the biggest to ever hit Canada, a
