U.S. president Trump has attacked the sustainability movement, but a major pulse player urges investors to stick with the industry

A Canadian food industry executive is telling pulse companies to stick with their sustainability messaging despite attempts by powerful people to undermine the movement.

Murad Al-Katib, president of AGT Food and Ingredients, said U.S. president Donald Trump has been very vocal about his disdain for the green movement.

Protests during the upcoming G7 leaders summit in Kananaskis, Alta., may be starkly different than demonstrations happening this week against immigration crackdowns in the United States.

A University of Toronto research group that has been monitoring the meetings of world leaders since 1998 says its analysis shows Canadian protests are more peaceful and smaller.

But similar to the recent demonstrations in Los Angeles, they're likely to be against the policies of U.S. President Donald Trump.

The Canadian Institute for Health Information says more surgeries are being performed than before the pandemic — but wait times have still grown longer. 

The report released Thursday looked at wait times for hip and knee replacements, cataract procedures, cancer surgeries, MRIs and CT scans in 2019 and in 2024.

Psalm 19:1-2

The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.

Ecclesiastes 7:12

God has given mankind the ability to see beyond the present. And He has not given that ability to any other creation. He has given us eternity in our hearts, without which "man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end,"(Ecclesiastes 3:11).

I have italicized "the end" for the sake of emphasis. Let me tell you why.

The City of Dawson Creek is letting residents know that heavy rain is expected in the next few days. While the rain is helpful due to the recent dry weather, it could also lead to flooding in some areas, especially low-lying spots. City crews are keeping a close eye on the situation and getting things ready in case there is a lot of water runoff. Residents are encouraged to take steps to protect their property as well.
