Ontario Auto Insurance Just Changed: What Every Driver Needs to Know Before July 1

  If you drive in Ontario, this affects you — starting July 1, 2026 , the biggest shake-up to Ontario's auto insurance system in decades is here. Nine benefits that were automatically included in every policy for years are now optional extras you have to pay for separately — or go without. The Ford government is calling it consumer choice. Critics are calling it a coverage cliff. Either way, Ontario drivers need to understand what just changed before their next policy renewal — because the default "basic" plan is now much leaner than what you're used to. From Standard Package to À La Carte Ontario's auto insurance has always included a bundle of Statutory Accident Benefits (SABs) — no-fault coverage that kicks in when you're hurt in a collision, regardless of who caused it.

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.
