The shot, which came despite Springer being hit on the knee earlier in the series, secured Toronto’s first trip to the World Series since 1993. Carney said the victory evoked memories of Joe Carter’s iconic walk-off home run that s

Vote counting resumes in municipal elections across Alberta

Vote counting in Alberta's municipal and school board elections has resumed.

B.C. to extend unpaid leave for 'catastrophic' illness, injury: Eby

The British Columbia government is proposing changes to the province's Employment Standards Act to allow up to 27 weeks of unpaid leave each year for people facing what Premier David Eby described as "catastrophic" illness or injury. Eby told a news conference in Victoria that the change would take effect this fall if the bill is passed by his New Democrat majority government. He says the leave would ensure people undergoing treatment such as chemotherapy could take the time they need without worrying about job security. Labour Minister Jennifer Whiteside joined Eby, saying workers deserve to
