UK's Strategic Move: Britain Signals Possible Support for Israel Amid Iran Conflict

The United Kingdom has hinted at potential support for Israel in its ongoing conflict with Iran, though officials emphasize that recent military deployments are primarily precautionary. British Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves stated on Sunday that additional military jets were sent to the Middle East to protect British bases and personnel. The escalation between Israel and Iran saw fresh attacks overnight, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warning that Iran would face intensified strikes in the coming days. Speaking to Sky News, Reeves called for de-escalation but acknowledged that Britain has previously assisted Israel in defending against missile attacks.

Claim Your Share: Navigating the $500-Million Bread Price-Fixing Settlement

 

Canadians who purchased packaged bread between January 1, 2001, and December 31, 2021, may be eligible for compensation from a $500-million class-action settlement. This lawsuit accused major grocery chains, including Loblaw Companies Ltd. and George Weston Ltd., of participating in a price-fixing scheme that artificially inflated bread prices.

Who Can Apply?

Eligible claimants include individuals and businesses that bought packaged bread in Canada during the specified period. The settlement covers most packaged bread products, but excludes fresh in-store baked goods, artisan loaves, and frozen bread.

How to File a Claim

Once the settlement process is finalized, an online claims portal will be available for submissions. Claimants will need to provide details about their bread purchases, though proof of purchase is not required for claims up to $25. Those who previously received a $25 Loblaw gift card in 2018–2019 can still apply, but the gift card amount will be deducted from their payout.

When Will Payments Be Made?

The exact payout per claimant depends on the number of approved claims and legal fees. Most eligible individuals could receive up to $25, with higher claims requiring documentation. The Quebec Superior Court is set to approve the province-specific settlement on June 16, after which the claims process will officially begin.
