Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says she is playing “good cop” as other Canadian leaders take a more adversarial stance against Donald Trump’s tariff threats, preferring to seek common ground with the U.S. administration on energy.Ms. Smith told an audience at a major U.S. energy conference on Wednesday that she favours expanding oil export capacity to the United States, but plans to push for more access to other markets if the two countries are unable to repair their fractured trade relationship.
Police in Nanaimo, B.C., say they’re spearheading a public awareness campaign with local bar owners and Crime Stoppers over “several reports” of drinks being drugged at local nightclubs in recent months.Police say people have reported having a drink and immediately having trouble breathing and feeling unwell, with some seeking medical attention for nausea and light-headedness.They say those symptoms are common if drinks have been spiked with GHB, often called the “date rape drug,” although the incidents don’t always get reported but have been posted on social media.
