Netanyahu slams UK, France and Canada for opposing military action in Gaza

The UK, France and Canada are threatening concrete actions against Israel, including sanctions, for its activities in Gaza and West Bank. The joint statement on Monday sharply criticizes Israel's decision to allow a limited, basic amount of aid into Gaza after nearly three months of an Israeli blockade wholly inadequate. The statement also calls on Israel to stop its "egregious" new military actions in Gaza and to immediately allow in humanitarian aid. The statement came shortly after Israel and the United Nations said the first few trucks of aid had entered Gaza which the UN humanitarian chief described as a drop in the ocean of what is urgently needed. The three countries' statement said they have always supported Israel's right to defend itself against terrorism but called the escalation disproportionate. The statement marked the first significant threat from the UK and France since the start of the 19-month war.

Canadian PM Carney names Indian-origin Anita Anand as foreign minister

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a major Cabinet shakeup, including naming Indian-origin Anita Anand as the new foreign minister, on Tuesday as he shapes a newly re-elected Liberal government. Carney, who replaced Justin Trudeau earlier this year and won election last month, named Anand foreign minister, replacing Mlanie Joly, who becomes the minister of industry. Anand previously served in roles including defence minister. Franois-Philippe Champagne retains his job as finance minister, while Dominic LeBlanc remains minister of US trade at a time of a trade war between Canada and the United States. Carney won the job of prime minister by promising to confront the aggression toward Canada shown by US President Donald Trump, while preserving the calm demeanour of an economist who has led the central banks of both Canada and the United Kingdom. Canadians elected this new government with a strong mandate to define a new economic and security relationship with the United ..

Canadian prime minister's Liberals fall short of majority in Parliament

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberals celebrated election victory in a stunning turn of fortune but fell short Tuesday of winning an outright majority in Parliament, and the party will have to seek help from other another, smaller party. The vote-counting agency Elections Canada has processed nearly all ballots in what turned out to be a razor-close race that will leave the Liberals three seats short of a majority. Recounts are expected in some districts. Carney's rival, populist Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, was in the lead until US President Donald Trump took aim at Canada with a trade war and threats to annex it as the 51st state. Poilievre not only lost his bid for prime minister Monday but was voted out of the Parliament seat that he held for 20 years. That capped a swift decline in fortunes for the firebrand Poilievre, who a few months ago appeared to be a shoo-in to become Canada's next prime minister and shepherd the Conservatives back into power for the fir

Liberals win Canada election amid Trump trade war, statehood threat

The Liberal Party has won the federal election in Canada, culminating a process marked by US President Donald Trump threats on a trade war and of making the country the 51st American state. With this result, the Liberal Party's leader and current prime minister, Mark Carney, will remain in the job, and will form a new government with a new cabinet. It's still unclear if the liberals will have a majority in the Parliament or whether they will need to look for alliances with other parties. Here's what to know and what comes next: Who did Canadians vote for? Canadians voted for all 343 member of the House of Commons, one for each constituency. The winning candidates were those who finished first, whether or not they won a majority of the votes. A party needs 172 seats in Parliament for a majority.

Vehicle attack in Vancouver devastates vibrant, growing Filipino community

For Bennet Miemban-Ganata, owner of a popular Filipino restaurant in Vancouver, the arrival of spring signalled the start of the season of fiesta," bringing both good business and a celebration of culture. From Filipino Restaurant Month in April to Filipino Heritage Month in June, there would be colourful clothes, folk dances and traditional food like crispy lumpia, marinated and grilled pork belly, and beef stew. And of course, there would be togetherness for Vancouver's rapidly growing Filipino community. All that made Saturday night's vehicle-ramming attack on a large crowd at a Filipino block party all the more devastating. We felt ... the whole day that it's a fun celebration, that people are happy being together, Miemban-Ganata said as she fought back tears Monday during an interview at her restaurant, Plato Filipino. We were just there to have fun, to know that we have each other in a foreign land. A black Audi SUV barrelled down a closed, food-truck-lined street and struck

Donald Trump's influence looms over Canada's poll as Liberals win

Donald Trump cast a long shadow over Canada's national election and many Canadian voters noticed. In his first 100 days back in the White House, the U.S. president has lobbed barbs at America's northern neighbour, levied tariffs on Canadian goods and talked about making Canada the 51st state. It had many Canadian voters thinking about Trump and how the parties on the ballot would respond to him. Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberals won over Conservative opposition leader Pierre Poilievre, a dramatic reversal of fortune credited largely to Trump. Here are some voices from voters casting their ballots in Monday's elections: Poilievre sounds like mini-Trump' In Toronto, Reid Warren said he voted Liberal because he saw the party as the best amid what he characterized as real uncertainty in the economy particularly.
