Airdrie

Just before 11 p.m., Airdrie RCMP advised the public that a police incident in the Osborne Park area of the city had been resolved.

"The suspect has been arrested without the use of lethal force, and only minor injuries were sustained from the deployment of a police dog. Alberta RCMP thanks the public for their assistance," police stated in a news release. 

Earlier Monday evening, police alerted the public to a heavy police presence in the area, asking residents to avoid it.

Canada Post says it has received strike notices from the union representing some 55,000 postal workers, with operations poised to shut down by the end of the week.

The Crown corporation says the union informed it that employees plan to hit the picket line starting Friday morning at midnight.

A work stoppage would affect millions of residents and businesses who typically receive more than two billion letters and roughly 300 million parcels a year via the service.

Prime Minister Mark Carney reaffirmed Canada's "steadfast and unwavering support" for Ukraine in his first meeting with the country's president on Saturday in Rome.

His meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyy was one of several sitdowns with world leaders taking place in the Italian capital, where Carney — a devout Catholic — has travelled to attend the inaugural mass of Pope Leo XIV. The Prime Minister is making a concerted effort to meet with other G7 leaders ahead of the global summit Canada is hosting in Kananaskis, Alta., next month.

On Saturday, Parks Canada issued a bear warning for Lake Minnewanka Trail in Banff National Park due to bold bear behaviour and frequent activity in the area.

"Special caution is recommended when travelling in this area due to the following bear related situation," officials noted in the advisory which was posted online. "A female black bear with offspring made contact with a tent in a campground."

Officials say the bear has been displaying bold behaviour and is frequenting the area. The warning took effect May 17 and remains active until further notice.

Prime Minister Mark Carney had a brief audience with Pope Leo XIV Sunday afternoon at the Vatican following the pontiff's inaugural mass in St. Peter's Square.

Carney was seated in the second row with his wife Diana for the mass, in a section amongst other world leaders and heads of state.

The prime minister, who is a devout Catholic, was one of the few world leaders to kneel during the blessing of the Eucharist, and was spotted at two instances taking a picture of the Pope on his phone to mark the occasion — before the mass started and after it had concluded. 

As the first Indigenous person ever to lead the federal department responsible for delivering services to First Nations, Inuit and Métis, Mandy Gull-Masty knows she has a daunting task ahead.

But the newly-appointed Indigenous services minister also knows what it's like to sit at both sides of the table — as a cabinet minister now and, until recently, as the grand chief of the political body representing 20,000 Cree people in northern Quebec.
