Ottawa and Alberta Forge Landmark Energy Accord

Prime Minister Mark Carney, left, meets with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith in Calgary on Thursday.   In a move that could redefine Canada’s energy landscape, Ottawa and Alberta have signed a new energy deal aimed at strengthening cooperation between the federal government and the province. The agreement signals a major shift in their often-contentious relationship, focusing on shared priorities such as clean energy investment, emissions reduction, and economic growth. The deal outlines commitments to expand renewable energy projects, modernize infrastructure, and support workers transitioning from traditional oil and gas sectors. Both sides emphasized that the accord is designed to balance Alberta’s economic reliance on energy production with Ottawa’s national climate goals. Observers note that this agreement could mark the beginning of a more collaborative era, reducing political friction and positioning Canada as a stronger player in the global energy transition.

Escalation in Gaza: Israeli Forces Advance in Khan Younis, 20 Killed

 

Israeli tanks advanced into the northern parts of Khan Younis in southern Gaza on Wednesday, leading to a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict. Palestinian medics reported that Israeli airstrikes resulted in the deaths of at least 20 people across the enclave.

The advance came a day after the Israeli military issued new evacuation orders, citing rocket launches from the area. The airstrikes targeted central Gaza, killing 11 people, including six children and one medic. Five of the victims were reportedly queuing outside a bakery. Additionally, nine Palestinians were killed by tank fire in Rafah, near the Egyptian border.

The situation in Gaza remains dire, with residents fleeing their homes amid the shelling. The humanitarian-designated area of Al-Mawasi has seen an influx of displaced families seeking safety. The conflict, which began after Hamas-led fighters attacked Israeli communities on October 7, 2023, has resulted in over 44,400 Palestinian deaths and widespread destruction.

The international community continues to call for a ceasefire, but the violence shows no signs of abating. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is worsening, with hospitals and aid workers struggling to cope with the influx of casualties and displaced persons.
