Montreal is a gem of a city: It's safe and walkable, with a vibrant nightlife and a cultural calendar packed with events. It's also one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada, so why wouldn't you want to get in on the action? AdvertisementIt has become harder for Montreal renters to check everything off their wish lists without raising budgets. AdvertisementGiven the condition of Montreal's housing market, our "starter" is now just our forever home. Christopher O'Donnell/ShutterstockBusinesses also have to compete against the city's carousel of construction projects, which can reduce foot traffic, among other issues.

And each finalist offers the newly minted Democratic Party leader a particular way to balance the ticket. Here’s how each could uniquely help the Democratic ticket — plus the potential drawbacks already getting attention. Andy BeshearNo current Democratic governor has won a redder state than Kentucky, where Beshear has won statewide three times. That appeal could help boost the Democratic ticket with working-class, independent and even some Republican voters in battleground states across the U.S. Tim WalzWalz has won Democratic plaudits for a string of progressive policy wins in his state.

WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris is nearing a final decision in choosing her running mate and plans to meet with some of the top contenders in person over the next 72 hours, a source familiar with the process said. Josh Shapiro is among the top contenders for the vice presidential spot. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is among the contenders to be Harris' running mate. It's unclear if all of them have advanced to the final in-person interviews with Harris herself this weekend. Andy Beshear is one of the six vice presidential contenders, NBC News has reported.

Bilahari Kausikan, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Singapore speaks at The 2017 Concordia Annual Summit at Grand Hyatt New York on September 19, 2017 in New York City. But that is not the case today, due to the complexity of modern supply chains. Kausikan said that both the U.S. and China are parts of a single global system, "and their competition is within a single system." While there could be some separation in areas like high technology and finance, Kausikan said it would not be a complete separation of ecosystems. "In fact, I know of no business leader who actually believes this will happen," he quipped.

CNN —Set atop a hill on the Italian island of Sicily, Agrigento is a heritage tourist’s paradise. Sicily began enforcing water restrictions in February when the region declared a state of emergency amid a relentless drought.

Sicily’s regional president, Renato Schifani, said the island’s losses — between crops, empty reservoirs and dying livestock — have already topped €1 billion. “The consortium used to guarantee water rotation every five or six days,” he said, referring to a farmers representative group.

Like the American federal government, Canada's national government doesn't have a lot of control over housing policy. Related storiesOverall, the federal push has already been quite successful in changing the housing policy landscape across the country, Moffat said. Over the last several years, an influx of new immigrants, rampant investor speculation, and rapidly rising construction costs have also sent prices up. It would also impose a fine on cities that tolerate "NIMBY" — the anti-development "Not in My Backyard" philosophy — opposition to housing construction. Some American fans of Canada's Housing Accelerator Fund suggest it could be a model for US efforts to incentivize denser and more abundant housing construction.

Reuters —An heiress who has denounced the absence of taxes on wealth and inheritance in Austria has given the bulk of her money, 25 million euros ($27 million), to 77 organizations, including social and climate groups, as well as prominent left-wing ones. A spokesman said the 25 million euros was “the overwhelming bulk” of her wealth, though she retains an undisclosed sum. Engelhorn is a descendant of Friedrich Engelhorn, who founded German chemicals giant BASF in 1865. When Engelhorn-Vechiatto died in 2022, Marlene inherited a large sum. “Now, it is up to the political actors to do justice to what this group representative of the Austrian population has embodied,” Engelhorn said, calling for more debate on these issues.

Mexico's drug cartels and gangs appear to be playing a wider role than before in Sunday's elections that will determine the presidency, nine governorships and about 19,000 mayorships and other local posts. The country's powerful drug cartels have long staged targeted assassinations of mayoral and other local candidates who threaten their control. Security analyst David Saucedo says it's likely some drug gangs will try to force voters to cast ballots for their favored candidates. "It it is reasonable to assume that the cartels will mobilize their support bases during Sunday's elections," Saucedo said. While they did not say who was behind the attack, the town is completely dominated by two warring drug cartels, Jalisco and Sinaloa.

The media line fed to the public about weeks of protests at Columbia — and the administrative crackdown that followed — has been selective at best. Columbia students have made clear that that’s what drives their protests. Why, even as numerous students at Columbia and elsewhere have been doxxed, harassed and bullied, were no congressional hearings called? But if Columbia students didn’t care about their university and the values it claims to uphold, they wouldn’t have risked so much with their protests. By the same token, if students didn’t care about our country, they wouldn’t protest so vocally against its policies.

CNN —Six people were killed and two injured by gunfire at a political campaign event in Chiapas, Mexico on Thursday, according to a statement from the state Attorney General’s Office. A preliminary investigation found that the deaths occurred after a confrontation between armed civilians during an electoral campaign event that was attended by a candidate for the municipal presidency of La Concordia for the Chiapas Popular Party, Lucero López Maza. However political violence has spiked across the country as Mexico heads toward its largest election in history on June 2. The Attorney General’s Office said three of the victims, one of whom was a minor, were women, and three men. Earlier this week, eleven people were killed in mass shootings in the neighboring municipality of Chicomuselo, the state prosecutor said.

Marine insurance companies will be on the hook for much of the costs. These insurance companies are backed by insurance companies of their own – a type of business known as a reinsurer. The potential cost of insurance claims from the bridge collapse could be between $1 billion and $3 billion, analysts at Barclays wrote in a note Wednesday. “But other than that, the economic impact of what has happened will be enormous, but not recoverable from the ship,” Davies said. Maryland lawmakers, meanwhile, are drafting an emergency bill to provide income replacement for Port of Baltimore workers impacted by the bridge collapse.

Related stories"I would say it's certainly going to be one of the largest marine losses in history, of that there is little or no doubt," he said. Barclays analysts estimate that the disaster could lead to $3 billion in insurance claims, while Morningstar DBRS put the figure at $4 billion. AdvertisementBoth of those figures would surpass the $1.5 billion losses triggered by the Costa Concordia disaster.

We have tried almost every single way to approach gun violence in a way that people will pay attention. There have been 50 mass shootings in the United States so far this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive. Brett Cross says he's unfazed by critics who are against the use of AI-generated voices of children killed by gun violence. But earlier this month, it announced that robocall scams using AI-generated voices are a violation of telecommunications law. He says some parents who’ve lost children to gun violence were reluctant to take part in the project.

Love them or loathe them, giant cruise ships are among the most remarkable success stories of the mass tourism age. Rechristened the Mardi Gras, the first Carnival cruise ship sailed out of Miami that March. Cruise ships like the Icon of the Seas will spend the majority of their trip at sea. Eight years later, cruise ships such as the Diamond Princess became early incubators for COVID-19. Cruise Market Watch forecasts there will be 360 cruise ships in service at the end of this year, comprising less than 1% of the global commercial fleet.

People who claimed the power to control nature and the energy resources around them saw the environment as a tool to be used for progress, historians say. Over hundreds of years, that impulse has remade the planet's climate, too — and brought its inhabitants to the brink of catastrophe. Tapping nature for its resources drove progress and productivity for some, but it's also been a major driver of emissions and environmental degradation. By the mid-19th century, steam power was adopted in manufacturing, cotton mills, steam ships and locomotives around the world, turning coal into a global trade. Centuries later, the United Kingdom has nearly weaned itself off coal, with weeks or months at a stretch where the national grid gets no coal power.

The country is also almost certainly heading towards a recession — if it's not already in one — and the housing market is partly to blame, economists say. But immigration is just one of many factors at play — Canada's housing crisis far preceded the rise in immigration. Stillo believes Canada's housing bubble has been slowly "deflating" for the last 18 months, despite an upswing in prices earlier this year. But there isn't consensus on if and when Canada's housing bubble will burst — or even if there is a bubble. While housing prices have flattened recently as demand softens, he says they show no sign of significantly declining.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Adam Deitch said in court that Waithe's scheme victimized at least 50 women. Waithe worked at Northeastern from October 2018 to February 2019, when the university fired him, and had previously coached at Penn State University, Illinois Institute of Technology, University of Tennessee and Concordia University Chicago. Prosecutors said Waithe sent the women nude or semi-nude photos he had stolen and requested they send additional ones so he could conduct "reverse image searches." But, with the help of a hacker, Waithe stole nude pictures of one of the Northeastern athletes stored on her Snapchat account and cyberstalked her, Deitch said. While some ignored his emails, at least 17 women responded, sending him 350 nude or semi-nude photos, according to the indictment.U.S.

Representative to the United States, Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office T.H. Lai, vice president and the ruling Democratic Progressive Party's (DPP) presidential candidate, has led in most opinion polls ahead of the election, which is taking place as Taiwan comes under increased pressure from China to accept its sovereignty claim. The United States, as with most countries, has no formal ties with Taiwan, but is the island's most important international supporter and arms supplier. 'INDEPENDENCE ACT'Like Lai, Hsiao is despised by China, which has twice placed sanctions on her, most recently in April, saying she was an "independence diehard". The DPP's smooth handling of its vice presidential nominee stands in contrast with efforts by Taiwan's two main opposition parties to agree on a joint ticket.

By Rich McKay(Reuters) - A Jewish school in Montreal was hit by gunfire early on Sunday, making it the third time in less than a week that a Jewish school in the Canadian city was hit amid heightened tensions over the conflict between Israel and Gaza, police said, according to local media. Bullet impact marks and bullet shells were found after residents heard gunfire early on Sunday, CBC News in Canada reported. At the two other schools in Montreal, both reported finding a bullet hole in their front doors Thursday morning, local media reported. It was unclear if the incidents at Jewish schools in the city's west end were related. The ensuing Israeli bombardment of the Hamas-run Gaza Strip has killed more than 10,000 people, Palestinian health authorities say.

"I understand that people are so profoundly disturbed by what they see happening there," Trudeau told reporters in the Montreal area on Thursday.
