Ford was at the MTCC announcing an accelerated Ring of Fire road construction plan when he said the convention centre would be rebuilt at a new, yet-to-be named location. He also said it would be huge — two-million square feet compared to the current centre’s 442,000 square feet. “The reason it has to be (so big) is we are losing so many conventions,” he argued.…

A majority of justices appeared to lean toward a narrow ruling in favor of a Texas man who argued he shouldn’t have been charged with a crime just because he owned a gun and smoked marijuana a few times a week. The Trump administration asked the high court to revive a criminal case against Ali Danial Hemani under a law that bans all illegal drug users from owning guns. But both…

The premiers of Ontario and Nova Scotia announced Monday that the two provinces have entered into a first-of-its-kind interprovincial trade deal for alcohol sales. The agreement will allow residents to purchase alcohol directly from local producers in the other province, including distilleries, wineries and breweries.

Starting Tuesday, producers in both provinces can begin applying for authorization…
