More particularly and without limitation, this news release contains forward-looking information concerning the future payment of dividends and the timing and amount thereof which assumes the availability of free cash flow to fund such dividends.

Former Conservative leadership candidate Patrick Brown says he will appear before a House committee looking into foreign interference. The House of Commons standing committee on public safety and national security is looking into allegations that agents of the Government of India have engaged in electoral interference and criminal activities in Canada. Last week, MPs on that committee summoned Brown, currently mayor of Brampton, Ont., after he declined previous invitations. In a social media post on Monday, Brown said he has now agreed to appear before the committee — although he still questions whether his testimony would be useful to the committee. See my statement on the summons from the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security Committee currently examining foreign interference. ⤵️ pic.twitter.com/aelsOnWPIK — @patrickbrownont "I have no new evidence to contribute to the committee's proceedings and am concerned that my appearance has been sought for political reasons," he said in the statement. He argued that the public inquiry into foreign interference being led by Commissioner Marie-Josée Hogue would have been a more appropriate venue. He said he was never contacted by Hogue to testify. Agents of the Indian government allegedly attempted to derail Brown's campaign for the leadership of the Conservative Party in 2022, according to sources who spoke to Radio-Canada. The National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP) cited "India's alleged interference in a Conservative Party of Canada leadership race" in its explosive report on foreign interference. A redacted version of that report was made public in June 2024. Agents of Indian government interfered in Patrick Brown's Conservative leadership campaign: sources Member of Modi's inner circle behind Canadian criminal plot, official says Trudeau government grants extension to public inquiry into foreign interference "CSIS did not advise the Conservative Party of Canada of any intelligence suggesting there was foreign interference in the leadership contest," Sarah Fischer, director of communications for the Conservative Party, said at the time. "This is the first time we have heard about it." Radio-Canada has no evidence indicating that Pierre Poilievre, now the Conservative leader, was aware of the alleged actions of India's agents. He handily won the 2022 leadership race on the first ballot with 68 per cent of the available points. Poilievre's office told Radio-Canada it had no knowledge of any attempts by Indian government representatives to undermine Brown's campaign. Brown said in his statement that he has no reason to believe that foreign interference affected the results of the 2022 leadership race. Brown was disqualified by Conservative Party authorities in July 2022 following allegations of "serious wrongdoing" linked to election financing. At the time, Brown accused the "party establishment" of "wanting to make sure Poilievre did not lose." Sources told Radio-Canada that Brown's national campaign co-chair, Conservative MP Michelle Rempel Garner, allegedly was pressured to withdraw her support for Brown. The Alberta MP denied those allegations in a written statement to Radio-Canada. WATCH | Rempel Garner walks away from journalist attempting to ask question: Rempel Garner walks away from journalist attempting to ask question 1 hour ago Duration 0:11 Ahead of a parliamentary committee meeting on Monday in Ottawa, Conservative MP Michelle Rempel Garner walks away from CBC journalist Chris Rands as he attempts to ask a question about allegations that she was pressured to withdraw her support for Patrick Brown during his 2022 Conservative Party of Canada leadership race. Rempel Garner categorically denies the allegation. Sources who spoke to Radio-Canada say agents of the Indian government allegedly attempted to derail Brown’s campaign for the party leadership in 2022. A CBC News journalist approached Rempel Garner before the start of a separate committee meeting on Monday to ask about the allegations. Before the journalist could mention anything about the allegations, Rempel Garner rapidly got up from her seat and left the room. She later appeared at the committee virtually. Rempel Garner quit her position as co-chair of Brown's campaign in June 2022 before the leadership race had concluded. In her statement to Radio-Canada, the MP said she left Brown's campaign on her "own volition." "In no instance was I coerced in any manner, by anyone, at any time. I am an experienced parliamentarian, seasoned communicator, and former cabinet minister who has proven more than capable of developing senior grade positions entirely based on my own read of a situation ... to suggest that I'm not is ridiculous," Rempel Garner said in her statement. RCMP says it has 'strong evidence' linking campaign of violence to the 'highest levels' of Indian government India again rejects Canada's claim it works with gangs targeting Sikh separatists U.S. charges ex-Indian intelligence official in plot to kill Sikh separatist Poilievre is the only leader who has refused to obtain a security clearance in order to view the unredacted version of the NSICOP report. He has argued that it would prevent him from criticizing the Liberal government's approach to addressing foreign interference. Conservative Party spokesperson Sebastian Skamski repeated that argument in an email on Monday, saying that the government can use "'threat reduction measures under section 12.1 of the CSIS Act to make further information available" without limiting Poilievre's ability to speak. "Unlike others who are willing to limit their ability to hold the government to account on important issues of national security, Mr. Poilievre will not be gagged and left unable to speak or act on the information he may receive," Skamski said. When asked about the allegations in Radio-Canada's report, Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc said Poilievre should get his security clearance. "I have a lot of confidence in the work that CSIS does in terms of detecting and disrupting the foreign interference. I see those briefings very regularly and I wish the leader of the opposition was interested enough to be able to see them himself," LeBlanc told reporters.Global stock markets mostly retreated Tuesday as traders eyed looming US inflation data and a key European interest rate call amid global political upheaval. After winning numerous records in the weeks since the November 5 US presidential election, US stocks fell for the second straight day as analysts pointed to profit-taking. But Alphabet jumped more than five percent after Google showed off a new quantum computing chip that it described as a significant breakthrough in the field, arguing it could lead to advances in drug discovery, fusion energy and other areas. The Paris stock market retreated as French party leaders gathered at President Emmanuel Macron's Elysee Palace office to chart a route towards a new government. The euro also fell ahead of the European Central Bank's monetary policy meeting on Thursday. The ECB is expected to lower interest rates by 25 basis points amid weak eurozone growth. Independent analyst Andreas Lipkow said traders were taking a cautious approach ahead of the ECB meeting. The main US indexes struggled as traders eyed US consumer price inflation (CPI) data due Wednesday, which could play a role in whether the US Federal Reserve decides to cut interest rates next week. On Wall Street, "tomorrow's CPI report is in full focus with a looming rate-decision from the Fed coming," analyst Bret Kenwell of trading platform eToro said in a note. Following recent spending and jobs data "traders have felt even more emboldened to bet on a December rate cut, while the Fed has done little... to quiet that expectation," he added. Earlier, stock markets weighed "concerns that China's economic stimulus measures might not have a long-lasting effect", noted Dan Coatsworth, investment analyst at AJ Bell. The growth plan comes as Beijing contemplates Donald Trump's second term in the White House. The US president-elect has indicated he will reignite his hardball trade policies, fueling fears of another standoff between the economic superpowers. The Shanghai stock market ended higher but Hong Kong fell. Seoul's Kospi index rallied more than two percent after tumbling since President Yoon Suk Yeol declared short-lived martial law on December 3. On the corporate front, shares in Stellantis rose around one percent on the Paris stock exchange after the car giant and Chinese manufacturer CATL announced plans for a $4.3-billion factory making electric-vehicle batteries in Spain. Walgreens Boots Alliance soared 17.7 percent following reports that it could be acquired by private equity firm Sycamore Partners. Boeing jumped 4.5 percent as it announced it was resuming production at two Seattle-area plants that had been shuttered for nearly three months due to a labor strike.

The wildfire alert came in the middle of the night as some college students in Southern California were cramming for final exams and others were woken up in their dorms. But rather than run away from the impending blaze, some 3,000 students at Pepperdine University headed toward two buildings at the heart of the 830-acre (336 hectare) campus in coastal Malibu , California, to shelter in place. The protocol at the Christian university with picturesque views of the Pacific Ocean may seem to defy logic to those accustomed to scenes elsewhere in wildfire-prone California of thousands of residents evacuating fire zones in lengthy caravans of cars. For years, the university nestled in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains has had a special protocol due to its unique terrain and design that calls for students to be brought to a library and campus center where they can get food and water and have their basic needs met, said Michael Friel, a Pepperdine spokesperson. The school began preparing students and community members on what to do in case of a wildfire during new student orientation at the beginning of the academic year. When the fire broke out Monday night, school officials started communicating with students around 11 p.m. and activated the shelter-in-place protocol about two hours later, spreading the word through text messages, email, social media and by going door to door. “A lot of our students were woken up by a knock on the door, and we made sure they were aware of the conditions and we were able to get them out of harm’s way,” Friel said. The Franklin Fire quickly moved south, jumping over the famous Pacific Coast Highway and stretching to the coast, where large homes line the beach. Thousands of Southern California residents were under evacuation orders and warnings Tuesday with more than 8,100 homes and other structures under threat. County fire officials estimated that more than 3.5 square miles (9 square kilometers) of trees and dry brush had burned amid dangerous conditions fanned by dry, gusty Santa Ana winds that were expected to last into Wednesday. The cause of the fire was not immediately known. Ryan Song, a resident assistant at Pepperdine University, said he noticed the power went out at his dorm late Monday. When he looked out the window, he saw a huge pink glow. “I thought, ‘This is too bright,’ and it got bigger and bigger,” the 20-year-old junior said. “I immediately went outside and saw that it was a real fire.” Song and the other assistants went door to door to get students out. Most were calm and followed instructions, he said; a few who were scared rushed to their cars to get off campus. Song said he spent the next few hours racing back and forth in the dark between his dorm and the main campus to ensure no one was left behind. Pepperdine University officials said the campus was designed in the 1960s with fire safety in mind due to the region's experience with wildfires. Buildings were clustered together and covered in stucco while roadways were constructed to make it easy for firefighters to get in, said Phil Phillips, the school's executive vice president. During the 1990s, campus officials worked with Los Angeles County fire authorities to develop a safety plan, and authorities said the safest option for students would be to remain on campus. The school is diligent about brush clearance and has a plan to reduce smoke in shelter-in-place locations by taping shut doors and using air filters, he said. The nearby stretch of the Pacific Coast Highway can also become congested during an emergency, Phillips said, such as during the deadly Woolsey Fire in 2018. “What you don't want is to be stuck,” said Phillips, who has been at the campus for three decades — including as a student — and said he has been through seven fires. “Protecting our students, providing for their safety is a moral obligation for us, so we take it really, really seriously.” On Tuesday, heavy smoke from the Franklin Fire, burning northeast of the school, billowed over the campus 29 miles (47 kilometers) west of Los Angeles, and classes were cancelled and final exams postponed. Firefighters had not contained any part of the blaze as of Tuesday afternoon. The campus was singed but no injuries were reported, and only one structure possibly was minimally damaged thanks to firefighters' hard work and collaboration from students, faculty and others on campus, Friel said. Jim Gash, the college's president, said the campus was no longer threatened on Tuesday afternoon. “I am grateful that through prayer, preparation, and cooperation, our Pepperdine community safely navigated the challenges encountered over the last 12 hours," Gash said in a statement. “Our prayers continue to go out to the Malibu community.” ___ Taxin reported from Santa Ana, Calif.

Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile drone.” Emily Harper, Austin, TX “As a beginner, I was worried about handling a drone, but the Starship Drone made it so simple.
