Description
While the results of this weekend’s B.C. election are still up in the air, voters in New Brunswick head to the polls. It appears to be a very tight race, where voters will decide whether to stay the course with the Progressive Conservatives or elect a Liberal government. South of the border, the U.S. presidential campaign heats up. And: King Charles was heckled in Australia. The heckler was an Indigenous Australian Senator who accused the King of genocide inside Australia’s parliament. Also: First Nations are now some of the biggest land developers in the Vancouver area. Many see this as a major step toward reconciliation but others worry there's not enough oversight. Plus: bike lanes, olive harvest, a town divided over coal, and more.
