  Canada’s Economy Has Now Stalled Twice. Is Your Emergency Fund Ready? Canada's economy is losing momentum, and it is a good time to ask yourself an important question: If your income disappeared tomorrow, how long could you cover your bills without borrowing money? Statistics Canada's latest GDP report, released October 30, showed that Canada's economy recorded virtually no growth in August for the second consecutive month.

Turmoil in Bangladesh: Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Resigns and Flees Amidst Protests

 


In a dramatic turn of events, Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has resigned and left the country for a “safer place” following weeks of intense anti-government protests. The 76-year-old leader’s departure comes after thousands of demonstrators stormed her official residence, demanding her resignation.

The unrest, which began as a movement against civil service job quotas, quickly escalated into widespread calls for Hasina to step down. The situation reached a boiling point when at least 90 people were killed and hundreds injured in violent clashes between protesters and security forces.

As the protests intensified, the government imposed a nationwide curfew and shut down internet services in an attempt to quell the unrest. However, these measures did little to deter the demonstrators, who continued to march through the streets of Dhaka, chanting slogans and demanding change.

In a televised address, Bangladesh’s military chief, Waker-Uz-Zaman, confirmed Hasina’s resignation and announced that an interim government would take over the administration of the country. The army has been deployed across the capital to maintain order and prevent further violence.

The resignation of Sheikh Hasina marks the end of her 15-year rule, during which she faced numerous challenges and controversies. As Bangladesh navigates this period of political uncertainty, the international community watches closely, hoping for a peaceful resolution to the crisis.
