The bank agreed to plead guilty to charges that it violated the Bank Secrecy Act in federal court in New Jersey last week. TD also settled a number of civil investigations by the U.S. Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, the Federal Reserve and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. [...] According to prosecutors, TD Bank’s U.S. unit failed to uphold proper anti-money laundering controls for almost a decade, from 2014 to 2023, during which time prosecutors said numerous criminal enterprises were able to transact through the bank. This included a Chinese drug trafficking group that bribed bank employees and was ultimately able to launder more than $470 million in cash linked to the sale of fentanyl and other illegal drugs, as well as another money laundering scheme that sent tens of millions of dollars to Colombia.

>There’s already been a vetting process to weed out some resolutions, but this one made it through, which suggests “someone in the party thinks that this is worth debating,” Young said. > >“I think this reminds us that the base of the UCP is host to a pretty substantial group of people who do not believe that climate change is real, or they don't believe that it is driven by human activity, and they think that any actions taken to transition away from fossil fuels are unnecessary.”
This is money that should have gone into healthcare to pay doctors and nurses more, to hire more doctors and nurses, to open more spots in medical and nursing schools to train more doctors, or into education to increase teacher pay or the number of teachers or the condition of it schools. How about to pay for bussing so our buses aren't cancelled 1 or 2 days a week because of a lack of drivers willing to drive or kids for poverty wages? This is a very expensive political stunt. He's throwing you a few bucks so that you will ignore the billions of dollars of graft his government is committing. It's bullshit. If every person in Kemptville Ontario signed over their cheque to the local hospital it would be able to buy the CT machine it's been fundraising for, a CT machine the government should be paying for in the first place I pledge to say fuck you to Doug Ford and his stupid political stunt and to sign poverty my $200 cheque to KDH the day it arrives to help pay for the CT machine my taxes should have already paid for. Please consider doing the same. Sign over your cheque, your hard earned tax dollars, to a local school or hospital. That's where this money should have gone anyway.
Wesley Wark, a national security expert with the Centre for International Governance Innovation, said Trudeau's testimony wasn't terribly revealing. Wark pointed to the report the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP) released in June, which suggested some parliamentarians had been "'semi-witting or witting participants" in foreign interference activities. Wark also said it's not clear to what extent the unnamed parliamentarians could be compromised — and suggested many may not even be aware that they are. In the past, Poilievre has defended his decision not to receive a national security clearance and get briefed by intelligence agencies by arguing that it would prevent him from speaking freely and criticizing the government on foreign interference issues. (Richard) Fadden said that wouldn't be the case. "Just because you have a security clearance doesn't mean you have to become a Carthusian monk and never speak," he said. He also said that Poilievre could choose to be briefed only on issues affecting his own party if he wanted to create a buffer ensuring he could criticize the government on foreign interference.

Others say it takes away already limited parking space in the Plateau. > > The general public seems to be missing the point of the curb extensions as a traffic calming initiative with the added benefits of greenery. Instead focusing on the removal of parking spaces, and not on the increased visibility and lower vehicle speeds these types of installation promote.
>"Importantly, these changes include strict limits on disclosing personal information about Canadian citizens, permanent residents, or any individuals in Canada, as well as the names of Canadian entities or corporations, without additional authorizations," said Townsend. >"CSIS welcomes any opportunity to brief elected officials about the threat landscape at any classification that is appropriate."
> The Alberta government is launching a $7-million advertising campaign in Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia in what it says is an effort to throw cold water on the federal government's plan to implement an emissions cap on the oil and gas sector.
>Poilievre's decision not to go through security screening means that no one in the party is in a position to act on the intelligence or challenge its accuracy, said Trudeau. >"The decision by the leader of the Conservative Party to not get those classified briefings means that nobody in his party, not him, nobody in a position of power knows the names of these individuals and can take appropriate action," he said. >"It also means nobody is there to stand up for those individuals if the intelligence is shoddy or incomplete or just allegations from a single source."
PM's latest testimony comes days after Canada expelled 6 Indian diplomats --- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he has the names of Conservative parliamentarians who are involved in foreign interference. In explosive testimony before the foreign interference inquiry today, Trudeau said he instructed the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) to warn Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre and protect the party's integrity. "I have the names of a number of parliamentarians, former parliamentarians and/or candidates in the Conservative Party of Canada who are engaged, or at high risk of, or for whom there is clear intelligence around foreign interference," he said. "And I have directed CSIS and others to try and inform the Conservative Party leader to be warned and armed, to be able to make decisions that protect the integrity of that party, of its members, from activities around foreign interference." The term "parliamentarian" can refer to senators or members of the House of Commons.

India said Monday it is recalling its ambassador and other diplomats from Canada, hours after it rejected a Canadian notification that the ambassador was a “person of interest” in the assassination of a Sikh activist last year.

>Historically, models of isolation and violence inflict deep harm on already targeted peoples: Indigenous, Black, racialized, disabled, criminalized people and drug users. Studies show that forcibly institutionalizing people creates worse outcomes than other forms of support. People already struggle to access voluntary treatment, counselling and bed-based services. This type of incarceration often reduces tolerance to substances, increasing the risk of fatal overdoses upon release, particularly when community-based supports are lacking.
