If you've been following the currents of online culture over the past couple of weeks, there's a good chance you've heard about Bluesky with increasing frequency. The microblogging site, which was founded by a former Twitter CEO, has been skyrocketing in popularity since the presidential election earlier this month, in which Donald Trump won his second term in the White House. Some users of X (formerly known as Twitter), many of whom were already growing frustrated with the many changes made by its owner, Trump mega-donor Elon Musk, are finally jumping ship to Bluesky. Aside from being less politically fraught, Bluesky is fundamentally different from X/Twitter in a few key ways. Its decentralized structure means users have more freedom with their data, and it has several features that make it easier to find the kind of content you're looking for — or avoid the content you're not. But can this brash new upstart really unseat X as the de-facto microblogging site? To find out, we took Bluesky through its paces and spoke to experts. Bluesky was founded by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey , along with a number of people interested in decentralized technology — tech designed so that it isn't subject to the whims of a single company or its owner. The idea was that anyone could host their own instance of Bluesky, leaving the company responsible only for its own app and not for the platform as a whole. It may seem strange for the head of a company to work on a potential competitor, but Dorsey has a reputation as an iconoclast within Silicon Valley. In fact, further Twitter alumni got in on the ground floor of Bluesky, including Parag Agrawal, the CEO whose tenure stretched from Dorsey's exit to Elon Musk's arrival at the company. But when it came time to launch as its own company, Dorsey and Agrawal tapped Lantian "Jay" Graber, a promising young developer, as Bluesky's CEO. The decision to keep Bluesky independent of Twitter proved prophetic. When Elon Musk took over the latter company in late 2022, he promptly nullified a prior agreement that would have seen Twitter folded into the decentralized web of platforms using Bluesky's technology and fired the people working to incorporate that tech. However, as Twitter changed under its new owner and was eventually rebranded as X, Bluesky continued to develop in the background. After a beta period during which sign-ups were available via invite only, Bluesky opened its doors to the general public in early 2024. Since then, it has grown slowly, but the platform began to explode in mid-November 2024. On the surface, Bluesky may look like just another Twitter clone, but under the hood, it's a very different platform. Just as on Twitter, you can post, repost, quote, and like posts. The difference is that Bluesky is decentralized, meaning anyone can host their own data and take their account with them to another instance of the platform. By default, a new user will appear as @username.bsky.social, but if you don't like that, you can use your own domain. For example, SlashGear could theoretically rehost an account on its own domain, giving it a username like @username.slashgear.com. (At the time of this writing, SlashGear does not have a Bluesky account.) Another unique aspect of Bluesky is algorithmic choice. On Twitter, Threads, and many other social media sites, users are shown content based on a secretive algorithm closely guarded by the platform. On Twitter and Threads, you can choose between letting a proprietary algorithm decide what you see or sorting your timeline into pure chronological order. Bluesky, by contrast, lets you select between multiple open-source algorithms, giving users far more control over how their content gets sorted. This algorithmic control manifests most clearly in the Feeds feature, which lets users create and subscribe to custom timelines based on particular topics, sets of users, or other criteria. When creating a Feed, you can choose which algorithm you want to rank the posts and even select how much weight the algorithm will give to the recency of any given post. This feature helped Bluesky to take on a life of its own, with a community-curated DIY culture that feels both fresh and distinct from other Twitter-like competitors. Buzz around Bluesky spread quickly through tech and media circles at its initial launch, hitting a million app installs last year . Now, it's taken on new life since the 2024 presidential election. With X owner Elon Musk having thrown his weight behind President-elect Donald Trump, many X users who don't align with Musk's politics now see the platform as politically hostile. That feeling was egged on by the explosion of hate speech that coincided with Musk's loosened moderation on the site, some of which Musk himself has engaged with. SlashGear reached out to journalist and Internet culture expert Taylor Lorenz, who says of X, "It's a very intense political environment on the app, and Elon has removed user controls that used to protect people." The result has been a mass exodus of users, which has been Bluesky's gain. At the time of this writing, Bluesky is the number one app on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, where it has remained for several days. Bluesky is not the only alternative to X. Meta's Threads platform integrates seamlessly with Instagram and has already scored 175 million users as of July 2024. However, given that the point of leaving X was to escape from under the thumb of a tech billionaire, it's understandable that Threads, which is ultimately tied to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, would prove nearly as unpalatable for a large portion of expatriated X users. "Threads ended up going crazy with the content moderation," Lorenz said, "and now I think people are realizing that Bluesky is the best alternative. Bluesky offers a very comparable experience to kind of the original Twitter." While Bluesky is benefitting from the X exodus, whether the current spike in growth can continue as a long-term trend remains to be seen. Lorenz suggested that, due to Elon Musk's entrenchment in the incoming Trump administration, X will remain an important part of the media landscape. "I think political people are so incredibly addicted to Twitter," Lorenz says. "And now with Trump in office, Twitter is going to remain a politically relevant platform that keeps journalists on there because they're going to want to see what Elon says." Lorenz points out that X also remains the de-facto platform for Congresspeople and other public figures. However, she's not willing to write Bluesky off in that regard just yet. "If lawmakers and pundits and journalists all do go to Bluesky, then I think it could replicate what Twitter had," Lorenz says. Some public figures have already decamped to Bluesky from X, including journalists like New York Times columnist Jamelle Bouie and celebrities like "Star Wars" star Mark Hamill. According to award-winning author Charlie Jane Anders, who referred SlashGear to a public statement on the subject, her final straw was a reported proliferation of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) on X. "I feel the need to make a clean break from Twitter at this point," she wrote. "After all of the proliferation of hate speech, and the random shutdowns of progressive accounts that challenge the owner's rigid orthodoxy, I was already wanting to make a break for it. But after the latest scandals involving CSAM, I really feel as though I have no choice." Whether or not Bluesky becomes the new Twitter, it's clearly promising what many people crave: a fresh start.By BILL BARROW, Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — Jimmy Carter, the peanut farmer who won the presidency in the wake of the Watergate scandal and Vietnam War, endured humbling defeat after one tumultuous term and then redefined life after the White House as a global humanitarian, has died. He was 100 years old. The longest-lived American president died on Sunday, more than a year after entering hospice care , at his home in the small town of Plains, Georgia, where he and his wife, Rosalynn, who died at 96 in November 2023 , spent most of their lives, The Carter Center said. Businessman, Navy officer, evangelist, politician, negotiator, author, woodworker, citizen of the world — Carter forged a path that still challenges political assumptions and stands out among the 45 men who reached the nation’s highest office. The 39th president leveraged his ambition with a keen intellect, deep religious faith and prodigious work ethic, conducting diplomatic missions into his 80s and building houses for the poor well into his 90s. “My faith demands — this is not optional — my faith demands that I do whatever I can, wherever I am, whenever I can, for as long as I can, with whatever I have to try to make a difference,” Carter once said. A moderate Democrat, Carter entered the 1976 presidential race as a little-known Georgia governor with a broad smile, outspoken Baptist mores and technocratic plans reflecting his education as an engineer. His no-frills campaign depended on public financing, and his promise not to deceive the American people resonated after Richard Nixon’s disgrace and U.S. defeat in southeast Asia. “If I ever lie to you, if I ever make a misleading statement, don’t vote for me. I would not deserve to be your president,” Carter repeated before narrowly beating Republican incumbent Gerald Ford, who had lost popularity pardoning Nixon. Carter governed amid Cold War pressures, turbulent oil markets and social upheaval over racism, women’s rights and America’s global role. His most acclaimed achievement in office was a Mideast peace deal that he brokered by keeping Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin at the bargaining table for 13 days in 1978. That Camp David experience inspired the post-presidential center where Carter would establish so much of his legacy. Yet Carter’s electoral coalition splintered under double-digit inflation, gasoline lines and the 444-day hostage crisis in Iran. His bleakest hour came when eight Americans died in a failed hostage rescue in April 1980, helping to ensure his landslide defeat to Republican Ronald Reagan. Carter acknowledged in his 2020 “White House Diary” that he could be “micromanaging” and “excessively autocratic,” complicating dealings with Congress and the federal bureaucracy. He also turned a cold shoulder to Washington’s news media and lobbyists, not fully appreciating their influence on his political fortunes. “It didn’t take us long to realize that the underestimation existed, but by that time we were not able to repair the mistake,” Carter told historians in 1982, suggesting that he had “an inherent incompatibility” with Washington insiders. Carter insisted his overall approach was sound and that he achieved his primary objectives — to “protect our nation’s security and interests peacefully” and “enhance human rights here and abroad” — even if he fell spectacularly short of a second term. Ignominious defeat, though, allowed for renewal. The Carters founded The Carter Center in 1982 as a first-of-its-kind base of operations, asserting themselves as international peacemakers and champions of democracy, public health and human rights. “I was not interested in just building a museum or storing my White House records and memorabilia,” Carter wrote in a memoir published after his 90th birthday. “I wanted a place where we could work.” That work included easing nuclear tensions in North and South Korea, helping to avert a U.S. invasion of Haiti and negotiating cease-fires in Bosnia and Sudan. By 2022, The Carter Center had declared at least 113 elections in Latin America, Asia and Africa to be free or fraudulent. Recently, the center began monitoring U.S. elections as well. Carter’s stubborn self-assuredness and even self-righteousness proved effective once he was unencumbered by the Washington order, sometimes to the point of frustrating his successors . He went “where others are not treading,” he said, to places like Ethiopia, Liberia and North Korea, where he secured the release of an American who had wandered across the border in 2010. “I can say what I like. I can meet whom I want. I can take on projects that please me and reject the ones that don’t,” Carter said. He announced an arms-reduction-for-aid deal with North Korea without clearing the details with Bill Clinton’s White House. He openly criticized President George W. Bush for the 2003 invasion of Iraq. He also criticized America’s approach to Israel with his 2006 book “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.” And he repeatedly countered U.S. administrations by insisting North Korea should be included in international affairs, a position that most aligned Carter with Republican President Donald Trump. Among the center’s many public health initiatives, Carter vowed to eradicate the guinea worm parasite during his lifetime, and nearly achieved it: Cases dropped from millions in the 1980s to nearly a handful. With hardhats and hammers, the Carters also built homes with Habitat for Humanity. The Nobel committee’s 2002 Peace Prize cites his “untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development.” Carter should have won it alongside Sadat and Begin in 1978, the chairman added. Carter accepted the recognition saying there was more work to be done. “The world is now, in many ways, a more dangerous place,” he said. “The greater ease of travel and communication has not been matched by equal understanding and mutual respect.” Carter’s globetrotting took him to remote villages where he met little “Jimmy Carters,” so named by admiring parents. But he spent most of his days in the same one-story Plains house — expanded and guarded by Secret Service agents — where they lived before he became governor. He regularly taught Sunday School lessons at Maranatha Baptist Church until his mobility declined and the coronavirus pandemic raged. Those sessions drew visitors from around the world to the small sanctuary where Carter will receive his final send-off after a state funeral at Washington’s National Cathedral. The common assessment that he was a better ex-president than president rankled Carter and his allies. His prolific post-presidency gave him a brand above politics, particularly for Americans too young to witness him in office. But Carter also lived long enough to see biographers and historians reassess his White House years more generously. His record includes the deregulation of key industries, reduction of U.S. dependence on foreign oil, cautious management of the national debt and notable legislation on the environment, education and mental health. He focused on human rights in foreign policy, pressuring dictators to release thousands of political prisoners . He acknowledged America’s historical imperialism, pardoned Vietnam War draft evaders and relinquished control of the Panama Canal. He normalized relations with China. “I am not nominating Jimmy Carter for a place on Mount Rushmore,” Stuart Eizenstat, Carter’s domestic policy director, wrote in a 2018 book. “He was not a great president” but also not the “hapless and weak” caricature voters rejected in 1980, Eizenstat said. Rather, Carter was “good and productive” and “delivered results, many of which were realized only after he left office.” Madeleine Albright, a national security staffer for Carter and Clinton’s secretary of state, wrote in Eizenstat’s forward that Carter was “consequential and successful” and expressed hope that “perceptions will continue to evolve” about his presidency. “Our country was lucky to have him as our leader,” said Albright, who died in 2022. Jonathan Alter, who penned a comprehensive Carter biography published in 2020, said in an interview that Carter should be remembered for “an epic American life” spanning from a humble start in a home with no electricity or indoor plumbing through decades on the world stage across two centuries. “He will likely go down as one of the most misunderstood and underestimated figures in American history,” Alter told The Associated Press. James Earl Carter Jr. was born Oct. 1, 1924, in Plains and spent his early years in nearby Archery. His family was a minority in the mostly Black community, decades before the civil rights movement played out at the dawn of Carter’s political career. Carter, who campaigned as a moderate on race relations but governed more progressively, talked often of the influence of his Black caregivers and playmates but also noted his advantages: His land-owning father sat atop Archery’s tenant-farming system and owned a main street grocery. His mother, Lillian , would become a staple of his political campaigns. Seeking to broaden his world beyond Plains and its population of fewer than 1,000 — then and now — Carter won an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy, graduating in 1946. That same year he married Rosalynn Smith, another Plains native, a decision he considered more important than any he made as head of state. She shared his desire to see the world, sacrificing college to support his Navy career. Carter climbed in rank to lieutenant, but then his father was diagnosed with cancer, so the submarine officer set aside his ambitions of admiralty and moved the family back to Plains. His decision angered Rosalynn, even as she dived into the peanut business alongside her husband. Carter again failed to talk with his wife before his first run for office — he later called it “inconceivable” not to have consulted her on such major life decisions — but this time, she was on board. “My wife is much more political,” Carter told the AP in 2021. He won a state Senate seat in 1962 but wasn’t long for the General Assembly and its back-slapping, deal-cutting ways. He ran for governor in 1966 — losing to arch-segregationist Lester Maddox — and then immediately focused on the next campaign. Carter had spoken out against church segregation as a Baptist deacon and opposed racist “Dixiecrats” as a state senator. Yet as a local school board leader in the 1950s he had not pushed to end school segregation even after the Supreme Court’s Brown v. Board of Education decision, despite his private support for integration. And in 1970, Carter ran for governor again as the more conservative Democrat against Carl Sanders, a wealthy businessman Carter mocked as “Cufflinks Carl.” Sanders never forgave him for anonymous, race-baiting flyers, which Carter disavowed. Ultimately, Carter won his races by attracting both Black voters and culturally conservative whites. Once in office, he was more direct. “I say to you quite frankly that the time for racial discrimination is over,” he declared in his 1971 inaugural address, setting a new standard for Southern governors that landed him on the cover of Time magazine. His statehouse initiatives included environmental protection, boosting rural education and overhauling antiquated executive branch structures. He proclaimed Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the slain civil rights leader’s home state. And he decided, as he received presidential candidates in 1972, that they were no more talented than he was. In 1974, he ran Democrats’ national campaign arm. Then he declared his own candidacy for 1976. An Atlanta newspaper responded with the headline: “Jimmy Who?” The Carters and a “Peanut Brigade” of family members and Georgia supporters camped out in Iowa and New Hampshire, establishing both states as presidential proving grounds. His first Senate endorsement: a young first-termer from Delaware named Joe Biden. Yet it was Carter’s ability to navigate America’s complex racial and rural politics that cemented the nomination. He swept the Deep South that November, the last Democrat to do so, as many white Southerners shifted to Republicans in response to civil rights initiatives. A self-declared “born-again Christian,” Carter drew snickers by referring to Scripture in a Playboy magazine interview, saying he “had looked on many women with lust. I’ve committed adultery in my heart many times.” The remarks gave Ford a new foothold and television comedians pounced — including NBC’s new “Saturday Night Live” show. But voters weary of cynicism in politics found it endearing. Carter chose Minnesota Sen. Walter “Fritz” Mondale as his running mate on a “Grits and Fritz” ticket. In office, he elevated the vice presidency and the first lady’s office. Mondale’s governing partnership was a model for influential successors Al Gore, Dick Cheney and Biden. Rosalynn Carter was one of the most involved presidential spouses in history, welcomed into Cabinet meetings and huddles with lawmakers and top aides. The Carters presided with uncommon informality: He used his nickname “Jimmy” even when taking the oath of office, carried his own luggage and tried to silence the Marine Band’s “Hail to the Chief.” They bought their clothes off the rack. Carter wore a cardigan for a White House address, urging Americans to conserve energy by turning down their thermostats. Amy, the youngest of four children, attended District of Columbia public school. Washington’s social and media elite scorned their style. But the larger concern was that “he hated politics,” according to Eizenstat, leaving him nowhere to turn politically once economic turmoil and foreign policy challenges took their toll. Carter partially deregulated the airline, railroad and trucking industries and established the departments of Education and Energy, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. He designated millions of acres of Alaska as national parks or wildlife refuges. He appointed a then-record number of women and nonwhite people to federal posts. He never had a Supreme Court nomination, but he elevated civil rights attorney Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the nation’s second highest court, positioning her for a promotion in 1993. He appointed Paul Volker, the Federal Reserve chairman whose policies would help the economy boom in the 1980s — after Carter left office. He built on Nixon’s opening with China, and though he tolerated autocrats in Asia, pushed Latin America from dictatorships to democracy. But he couldn’t immediately tame inflation or the related energy crisis. And then came Iran. After he admitted the exiled Shah of Iran to the U.S. for medical treatment, the American Embassy in Tehran was overrun in 1979 by followers of the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. Negotiations to free the hostages broke down repeatedly ahead of the failed rescue attempt. The same year, Carter signed SALT II, the new strategic arms treaty with Leonid Brezhnev of the Soviet Union, only to pull it back, impose trade sanctions and order a U.S. boycott of the Moscow Olympics after the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. Hoping to instill optimism, he delivered what the media dubbed his “malaise” speech, although he didn’t use that word. He declared the nation was suffering “a crisis of confidence.” By then, many Americans had lost confidence in the president, not themselves. Carter campaigned sparingly for reelection because of the hostage crisis, instead sending Rosalynn as Sen. Edward M. Kennedy challenged him for the Democratic nomination. Carter famously said he’d “kick his ass,” but was hobbled by Kennedy as Reagan rallied a broad coalition with “make America great again” appeals and asking voters whether they were “better off than you were four years ago.” Reagan further capitalized on Carter’s lecturing tone, eviscerating him in their lone fall debate with the quip: “There you go again.” Carter lost all but six states and Republicans rolled to a new Senate majority. Carter successfully negotiated the hostages’ freedom after the election, but in one final, bitter turn of events, Tehran waited until hours after Carter left office to let them walk free. At 56, Carter returned to Georgia with “no idea what I would do with the rest of my life.” Four decades after launching The Carter Center, he still talked of unfinished business. “I thought when we got into politics we would have resolved everything,” Carter told the AP in 2021. “But it’s turned out to be much more long-lasting and insidious than I had thought it was. I think in general, the world itself is much more divided than in previous years.” Still, he affirmed what he said when he underwent treatment for a cancer diagnosis in his 10th decade of life. “I’m perfectly at ease with whatever comes,” he said in 2015 . “I’ve had a wonderful life. I’ve had thousands of friends, I’ve had an exciting, adventurous and gratifying existence.” ___ Former Associated Press journalist Alex Sanz contributed to this report.

As Edmonton contends with a massive population boom over the last two years, Edmonton councillors discussed on Monday how they can help newcomers to the city. “Immigration is a federal and provincial responsibility, but at the same time as a municipality, we provide front-facing services to all Edmontonians. From public transit to recreational facilities, libraries, public safety and well-being, fire services,” said Mayor Amarjeet Sohi. While it’s not directly city jurisdiction, Edmonton city council approved a plan to increase access to front-line services and community engagement for newcomers to Canada and to the city. The city is preparing to hit a population of two million, which means an increase in Edmontonians using city services. “Migrants, it could be people like me, who came in as immigrants — and our children — now make up to close to 40 per cent of Edmonton’s population,” said Sam Juru, the executive director of Africa Centre. Juru spoke at city hall Monday, saying the city plan is needed as Edmonton’s demographics are changing. “So there’s more need to provide economic supports, people who want to start businesses, employment, social supports, things like housing, access to affordable transit,” said Juru. Edmonton’s mayor told CityNews Monday that newcomers to Canada are crucial to the city’s economy, as the city contends with a tough budget. “I want to highlight, we need to be very mindful, without immigration, without people moving to our city, our economy would not be able to grow, our society would not be able to advance. We need workforce,” said Sohi. Sohi says he intends to focus on strong services, while minimizing property taxes, when budget talks resume next week.James nets late to earn Hereford Pegasus draw at Westfields

Dutton promises teen ban won’t mean people need passports to log onNEW YORK — Notre Dame versus Army at Yankee Stadium. At one time it was the biggest game there was in college football. One of them was ranked No. 1 in four straight meetings from 1943-46, culminating with a 0-0 tie in a No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup that was dubbed the “Game of the Century.” Their meeting Saturday night isn’t at that level. But with the No. 6 Fighting Irish (9-1) in prime position for a spot in the College Football Playoff and the 18th-ranked Black Knights (9-0) one of only three unbeaten teams in FBS, it’s one of the most significant games on the last full weekend of November. “It’s an amazing opportunity to play a great program that has a lot of history and is a Top 25 program,” Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman said. “It’s going to be a great challenge on Saturday night.” Notre Dame has won eight straight and has been romping over opponents, just as it did in 2016 in the most recent meeting of what eventually became a one-sided series against Army. The Black Knights haven’t won since 1958, the last matchup in which both were ranked. “You walk around this building and look at all the photos of Army playing Notre Dame in the Polo Grounds and Yankee Stadium, and there’s a great history to this game,” Army coach Jeff Monken said. “And the history belongs to Notre Dame. They’ve won most of them. So it will take a great effort, but our guys are excited about the challenge and the opportunity and I hope we’ll play well.” This meeting was scheduled to honor the 100th anniversary of Notre Dame’s 1924 victory in New York at the Polo Grounds, when Grantland Rice famously wrote: “Outlined against a blue-gray October sky, the Four Horsemen rode again.” Army has won 13 straight, tops in the nation, has won every game this season by double digits and didn’t even trail in one until its 14-3 victory over North Texas two weeks ago. But the Black Knights haven’t played anyone like the Irish, who are No. 6 in the current playoff rankings. Notre Dame has allowed 14 or fewer points in five straight games, is near the top of numerous defensive categories and allows just 11.4 points per game. Win Saturday and at Southern California next week in their final game of the regular season and the Irish could be in position to host a playoff game. “I think the coolest thing is we’re in November now, getting to late November, and you’re in control of your destiny. That’s something that I haven’t been able to experience,” said quarterback Riley Leonard, a transfer from Duke. “And every day you kind of wake up and you’re like wow, this is cool. You have that motivation and that extra urge to go above and beyond, go the extra mile, because everything we want is right in front of us and we’re in control of our destiny.” The playoff may be out of reach for Army, currently No. 19. But the Black Knights need to keep their ranking as high as possible, as it could come into play as a tiebreaker with No. 20 Tulane to determine which hosts the American Athletic Conference championship game on Dec. 6. Notre Dame is 39-8-4 against Army, including 15-5-3 at Yankee Stadium. That includes a 2010 victory in what was the first football game at the current stadium, which opened a year earlier. Notre Dame routed Navy 51-14 last month. Like Army, the Midshipmen control the ball with their rushing attack and rarely commit turnovers, but the Irish recovered five fumbles and had an interception. “I met with the defensive staff and the first thing we said is the biggest mistake we can make is think this is Navy 2.0,” Freeman said. “It’s not.” Notre Dame serves as the host team for the game Saturday, even though it’s not far from Army’s home at West Point, New York. The Black Knights took a trip to Yankee Stadium this summer. “I think it’s a really cool moment,” linebacker Brett Gerena said. “I was new in my awareness with our history at Yankee Stadium and the Polo Grounds. I’m just really excited to relive that history and be a part of the legacy.” Army quarterback Bryson Daily and running back Kanye Udoh have combined for 1,918 rushing yards this season, the seventh-highest total by a duo in academy history. Udoh (856 yards) is on pace to join Daily (1,062 yards) as a 1,000-yard rusher with five games left. Army has had two players rush for more 1,000 yards in a season only twice (1984, 2012).

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says he has "zero tolerance" for intimate partner violence, but stopped short of saying his government would push through an opposition bill to declare it a provincewide epidemic. "We're 100 per cent behind making sure there is zero violence against women," Ford told reporters at an unrelated news conference in Burlington, Ont. "I have four daughters. And if anyone ever touched my daughters, that would be the worst day of their lives. It's unacceptable. I have zero tolerance for any sort of violence against women or anyone in that fact." NDP MPs once again called on the province to declare intimate partner violence (IPV) an epidemic on Monday, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. Ontario NDP Leader Marit Stiles said the government should have passed Bill 173, the Intimate Partner Violence Epidemic Act, in April this year and accused the province of stalling on the issue. Ford did not say why the province hasn't done so yet. Stiles calling IPV an epidemic means treating it as a public health crisis and devoting resources to fighting it. Resources mean supporting the courts and ensuring there is space for women at shelters, she said. Naming IPV an epidemic was the top recommendation of a coroner's inquest two years ago into the deaths of three women in Renfrew County in 2015, she added. "We have the evidence. We have the reports," she said Ontario NDP Leader Marit Stiles asked in question period on Monday: 'How many more people have to die before this government declares intimate partner violence an epidemic?' (Andrew Lahodynskyj/The Canadian Press) Bill 173 passed second reading on April 10, before being referred to the standing committee on justice policy. On the first day of the fall session this year, a motion to pass the bill was struck down, according to the NDP. Stiles told reporters at Queen's Park that Ford should be thinking of the issue not just in terms of his family, but in terms of the province as a whole. "He is not just a father, he's the premier of this province. He has a responsibility to everybody in this province," Stiles said. Stiles said the government has enough information to pass the bill without committee hearings and that it's offensive that the government will not pass the bill quickly. Stiles added the government is stalling because it doesn't want to spend the money. "It's outrageous that this government will not take this simple, straightforward step... Enough talk. Let's take action." Ontario NDP MPP Kristyn Wong-Tam speaks to reporters at a news conference at Queens Park on Monday. The NDP brought in representatives from more than a dozen legal clinics that support the move to have intimate partner violence declared an epidemic. (CBC) At a news conference on Monday morning, the Ontario NDP brought in representatives from more than a dozen legal clinics that support the move to declare IPV an epidemic. One representative of a legal clinic said naming partner violence an epidemic would help in court cases, such as in custody battles. In question period, Stiles said 34 women were killed this year between January and June in Ontario, or an average of five every month. Ninety-five municipalities in Ontario and six provinces and the City of Toronto have all declared IPV an epidemic. "How many more people have to die before this government declares intimate partner violence an epidemic?" Ontario's Minister for Children, Community and Social Services Michael Parsa said in response that violence against women and girls is a "horrific crime" and the government has supported the bill and is continuing to review and hear from experts on the issue. "We have made a commitment to make sure they have the supports and resources to continue to provide those supports to families," Parsa said Parsa said the government is investing $1.4 billion annually to make sure supports and services are available to families in Ontario and has partnered with the federal government on the National Action Plan to End Gender-Based Violence. "We will work with any partner, any level of government to stop violence against women in our province once and for all," Parsa added. NDP MPP Jessical Bell said the move cannot come soon enough. "Every day of inaction puts lives at risk," she said. "Ontario needs to catch up... Lives are depending upon it."
One in eight New Zealand children are obese, a new report says. File photo: Reuters A report released on Monday by the Helen Clark Foundation shows that more than one in three New Zealand adults are obese, the third-highest rate in the OECD, while one in eight children are affected. The numbers are significantly worse for Māori and Pasifika people. Obesity is now the country's leading risk factor for death and disability, ahead of smoking, according to the report. It recommended that the government introduce policies to help improve the accessibility of healthy foods and curb the marketing of unhealthy products targeted at children. "For Kiwis to be healthy, they need to be living in a healthy food environment, but our streets, supermarket shelves and school canteens are packed with food that is convenient, highly processed, and high in fat, salt, and sugar, while our airwaves amplify and target these unhealthy products," Helen Clark Foundation executive director Murray Bruges said. "If politicians fail to accept this, the same failed policies of the past will be repeated." The majority of New Zealanders supported tougher rules on unhealthy food, report co-author Adam Bradshaw said. Obesity was putting immense strain on the health system and costing New Zealand up to $9 billion per year in lost productivity, he said. "While the causes of obesity can be complex, the fact that New Zealand has so far chosen not to implement policies we know work in other countries is making a bad situation worse. "It's time for New Zealand politicians to also take some responsibility to tackle our growing obesity problem." The report recommended: • Introducing a levy on sugar in food, to bring levels down • Removing sugary drinks from schools • Ensuring healthy food is served in hospitals • Adopting new technologies and treatments for the prevention and treatment of obesity Dave Letele, who founded the weight loss gym BBM Motivation, said some of New Zealand's poorest communities had an oversupply of fast food outlets. The report's proposals emphasised the need for immediate government action, he said.
