But is it just June — when the hours run long and the frustrations high — or has decorum in the chamber taken a nasty slide?

L'essentiel des nouvelles économiques, technologiques et financières[texte ni révisé ni corrigé à des fins de publication]Washington vole au secours de la Silicon Valley Bank, la 16e banque américaine, pour assurer les déposants et les investisseurs, et éviter une contagion de la crise qui a frappé ces derniers jours cette banque de Santa Clara, en Californie, ces derniers jours Vendredi, les autorités californiennes ont carrément fermé la banque. Les autorités fédérales américaines ont promis hier que, dès aujourd'hui, ses clients – principalement des startups et des sociétés de technologie – pourraient récupérer tous leurs dépôts. Le montant en jeu est de 200 milliards $US.La crise a des impacts au Canada: en effet, le surintendant des institutions financières a pris hier le contrôle des actifs de la succursale canadienne de la Silicon Valley Bank, qui a une antenne à Montréal.La Banque de Montréal a conclu une convention d'achat avec LoyaltyOne, une filiale de l'entreprise américaine Loyalty Ventures, pour lui acheter le programme de récompenses Air Miles et le «revitaliser». Loyalty Ventures a déclaré faillite vendredi.Air Miles affirme sur son site que le projet de BMO «n'affectera ni le solde des Miles des adhérents ni leur capacité à accumuler et à échanger leurs points».Le ministre fédéral des transports Omar Alghabra approuve, sous certaines conditions, l'acquisition de Vacances Sunwing et de Sunwing Airlines par WestJet Airlines, une acquisition dont le projet avait été annoncé il y a un an.L'une des conditions posée par le ministre est que, pendant au moins 5 ans, l'entreprise maintienne un bureau régional dans la région de Montréal. En annonçant son projet de transaction il y a un an, Westjet avait promis promis qu'elle maintiendrait un bureau à Laval pour sa division de vente de voyages, qui fera notamment concurrence à celles de Transat et d'Air Canada.L'emploi ne montre pas encore de signes de faiblesse au CanadaLes prévisionnistes s'attendent à ce que la succession des hausses de taux d'intérêt augmente le taux de chômage. Mais cela ne s'est pas encore produit.Selon Statistique Canada, le marché du travail a créé au Canada 22 000 nouveaux emplois en février, et le taux de chômage s'est maintenu à 5%, soit le même taux qu'en décembre et janvier. Pierre Karl Péladeau est le nouveau propriétaire des Alouettes de MontréalLe patron de Québecor s'est porté acquéreur à titre personnel de l'équipe montréalaise de la Ligue canadienne de football.«C'est une opération de fierté», a-t-il dit, ajoutant qu'une participation de l'entreprise qu'il dirige, Québecor, n'aurait pas été «appropriée». ---Détails sur ces nouvelles et d'autres nouvelles: https://infobref.com.S'abonner aux infolettres gratuites d'InfoBref: https://infobref.com/infolettres_Écouter les balados d'InfoBref: https://infobref.com/audio[Découvrez Actualités InfoBref, un balado quotidien des principales nouvelles générales, parfaitement complémentaire d'InfoBref Affaires]Voir notre épisode hebdo «à retenir cette semaine»: https://www.youtube.com/@infobrefCommentaires et suggestions à l'animateur Patrick Pierra, ou pour commanditer nos balados: editeur@infobref.com Hébergé par Acast.

Libby Znaimer is joined by Bill VanGorder, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Policy Officer of CARP, Anthony Quinn, Chief Community Officer of CARP, and John Wright, Executive Vice President of Maru Public Opinion. We begin the discussion off by remembering the late Honourable David Onley who died yesterday at the age of 72. David served as the 28th Lieutenant Governor of Ontario between 2007 until 2014. He will, of course, be remembered as well for his tireless advocacy for those living with disabilities. And, then we get our reaction from the squad regarding the province's plans to expand the surgeries conducted in private clinics for things like cataract, knee and hip replacements as a way to address the current backlog in surgeries in the healthcare system. ---- PROVINCE TO EXPAND SURGERIES IN PRIVATE FACILITIES Libby Znaimer is joined by Dr. Doris Grinspun, CEO of the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO) and Dr. Andrew Boozary, a primary care physician and the Executive Director of Population Health and Social Medicine at the University Health Network (UHN). The Ford government is planning to expand the number of surgeries that can be conducted in private clinics in the province in order to address the backlogs. This morning, Premier Ford made a televised announcement giving details of the plan alongside health minister Sylvia Jones. Is this the right approach? ---- REACTION TO OMAR ALGHABRA'S TESTIMONY AT THE TRANSPORT COMMITTEE IN OTTAWA Libby Znaimer is now joined by Melissa Lantsman, Conservative MP (Thornhill) and the transport critic. MP Lantsman gives reaction to federal transport minister Omar Alghabra's testimony at the House of Commons Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure, and Communities on Jan. 12.

Toronto's Pearson International Airport is making headlines again. Many travelers are complaining that it has taken days for them to get their baggage to wherever they flew out for vacation and that the communication on the whereabouts of their luggage was poor. So, how did this happen? And, was this year's holiday travel experience at Canada's international airports any smoother compared to last year as Federal transportation minister Omar Alghabra promised it would be? ---- THE LATEST ON THE WINTER STORM IN BUFFALO Jane Brown is now joined by Dr. Natalie Simpson, Chair and Professor Operations Management and Strategy School of Management at the University at Buffalo and an expert on emergency preparedness.

And, what lessons will the City and country learn from this kind of natural disaster moving forward? Our expert weighs in. Listen live, weekdays from noon to 1, on Zoomer Radio!

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're going to play the beautiful game: Amateur political punditry! In that context, we're also going to talk about all the issues around that other game being played on the world stage this week, and we're also going to talk about the national stage and the latest moves at a certain inquiry, plus the local stage with another new city councillor who'll talk about a very big first meeting. This Thursday, November 24, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: It's All Been Leading to This. It's the last week of testimony for the public inquiry into the use of the Emergencies Act, and it's probably the most consequential one. All your favourite cabinet ministers will be testifying - Bill Blair, Marco Mendicino, Dominic LeBlanc, David Lametti, Anita Anand, Omar Alghabra, Chrystia Freeland, and then on Friday, "Mr. Big" himself, Justin Trudeau. We'll talk about the latest developments. ¡FIFA la Revolución! The FIFA world Cup has begun in Qatar, but the first several days have been marked with completely predictable scandals: They promised beer, but there was no beer served. They promised to let up on some of their anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric, but a man in a rainbow t-shirt was barred from entering a stadium. Even the ticket app crashed on one point this week. So why are we indulging this thing? hiCarly! The first real city council meeting happened this week, and it had a some consequential implications about what the City of Guelph can do for the next four year. But it was nothing that council did, it was about the Government of Ontario's Bill 23. This week, we're joined by new Ward 2 Councillor Carly Klassen who will talk about her reaction to the implications of Bill 23 and other council business. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.

The Power Panel discusses what we learned from the testimony of ministers David Lametti, Anita Anand and Omar Alghabra.

Libby Znaimer is joined by John Gradek, a faculty lecturer at McGill University in Montreal and a former executive with Air Canada, Dr. Gabor Lukacs, President and Founder of Air Passenger Rights, and Martin Firestone, President of Travel Secure Inc. Canada's transportation minister Omar Alghabra will be holding a summit to address the upcoming holiday travel season. The minister says he is working to improve the situation of delays at the airports and improve efficiency with the airlines and says that his ministry is working to ensure more staff for the airports and airlines. But with the holiday season just a month away, does he have the time and resources to get this done successfully? The summit will include stakeholders from the airlines and airports. And, the minister had this to say about why it is happening: “We cannot go back to what we saw last summer." And, Marty is on site at Pearson International Airport awaiting to board a flight. He gives us first-hand observations of what is going on there. CANADA SOCCER AT THE WORLD CUP IN QATAR Libby Znaimer is joined by Bob Richardson, a member of the board of directors for Canada Soccer. Today, Canada faces off against Belgium in the world cup in host country Qatar. But, what is more remarkable than that is the fact that Canada is making its first appearance in the event in 36 years. So, how did we get here? And, what does this all mean for Canada on the world stage? Bob was also just recently featured in the Toronto Life list of most influential Torontonians for bringing the future world cup to our City in 2026 (which will be joint hosted by the US and Mexico as well). METROLINX'S PLANS TO UPROOT HISTORIC TREES AT OSGOODE HALL Libby Znaimer is joined by Steve Munro, a Toronto transit advocate followed by Mike Schreiner, leader of the Green Party of Ontario. Metrolinx has plans to cut down five trees in the historic grove at Osgoode Hall as part of its Ontario Line project and has notified the Law Society of Ontario that it will begin doing so on Dec. 5th or earlier. Our guests today explain why this is a bad idea and the damage it will do to the historic urban forest land that has been preserved for more than 200 years according to the law society.

Greg talks about the ongoing debates regarding the arrive can app. Over the weekend Omar Alghabra minister of transportation had some hard questions to answer.

The federal government's ArriveCan app is stranding travellers abroad and getting elderly Canadians getting fined because they aren't tech-savvy. Justin Trudeau and Omar Alghabra claimed it was a Covid app, but it's gradually morphing into a permanent requirement to enter your own country, True North's Andrew Lawton says.Support the show: https://tnc.news/lawton-heritage-club/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Libby Znaimer is joined by David Peterson, former Ontario Liberal Premier, Howard Hampton, former leader of the Ontario NDP and Hugh Segal who served as chief of staff to Ontario's 18th Premier, the late Bill Davis. Today: we start the discussion off with a recap of the new Ford government cabinet that saw, among other changes, Sylvia Jones take over as deputy premier and minister of health. Will Sylvia be able to fill the big shoes that her predecessor Christine Elliott left? And, we continue the discussion about government incompetence. There seems to be a lot of it these days. Some examples that come to mind include Global Affairs sending a senior rep to the Russian Embassy to celebrate Russia Day and federal transportation minister Omar Alghabra blaming travelers for problems at international airports like Pearson. Our panel weighs in on all of that and more. ---- HOW CANADA PERFORMED ON ITS PANDEMIC RESPONSE + FOURTH COVID-19 BOOSTERS

The shuffle will address those in the cabinet who say they do not plan on running again in the next federal election, sources told Global News. Sources said Navdeep Bains, who has served as Canada’s minister of innovation, science and industry since 2019, will not run again in the next election and will no longer be in cabinet. Foreign Affairs Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne is expected to replace Bains. Transport Minister Marc Garneau is expected to be shuffled in to replace Champagne at Global Affairs Canada, sources said. Omar Alghabra who currently serves as parliamentary secretary to the Minister of International Trade Diversification is expected to assume the role of transport minister, according to the sources. The federal Liberals found themselves 13 seats shy of the 170 needed to form a majority after the 2019 federal election. This means the government could be toppled if the opposition parties unite against it — potentially after the next budget in the spring, the first since the COVID-19 pandemic sent the federal deficit skyrocketing.

Omar Alghabra advocated for sharia law in Ontario. He has openly stated he does not believe that Hamas and Hezbollah were terrorist groups. He played a leading role in silencing the discussions to be lead on Parliament Hill by Baroness Cox of the UK Parliament. Why does Omar, like so many Liberals, want to shut down the voices of women?

The 12 Trolls of Christmas | #3 Omar Alghabra by Produced by Possibly Correct Media

Being kidnapped by terrorists or foreign dictatorships is a terrifying ordeal. For government officials, it is a nightmare as they do not want to “negotiate with terrorists” but yet face public demands to get the victims released. But based on my assessment of recent Canadian cases since Justin Trudeau became Prime Minister, the results are not encouraging for the victims. The Government of Canada only seems to invest significant efforts where the victims are connected to the Prime Minister's inner circles. It seems to help if you are connected to the Muslim Brotherhood and Omar Alghabra.
