<\/p>\nIt says many other cities in Canada aren\u2019t seeing the same shift, and manufacturing regions in Ontario continue to face weaker overall trade performance.<\/p>\n

Canada\u2019s biggest arms expo is booming as Carney prioritizes defence<\/p>\n
Canada\u2019s biggest arms trade show is booming amid an uncertain geopolitical climate and Ottawa\u2019s drive to rebuild the military.<\/p>\n
Hundreds of defence equipment and tech companies will jostle to sell their wares at CANSEC in the nation\u2019s capital over the next two days.<\/p>\n
Christyn Cianfarani, head of the Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries group that hosts the show, says companies attending CANSEC are working hard to promote the Canadian firms in their supply chains this year.<\/p>\n
Prime Minister Mark Carney has pushed to boost domestic defence spending and to use the sector to help shore up the economy, campaigning last year on Buy Canadian policies and reducing the amount of Canadian defence dollars headed to the U.S.<\/p>\n

B.C. Indigenous relations face \u2018fraught context\u2019 but treaty commissioner undeterred<\/p>\n
Tensions between British Columbia and First Nations have been rising as Premier David Eby navigates calls to amend the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act.<\/p>\n
The new head of the B.C. Treaty Commission, George Abbott, says his appointment comes at a \u201cchallenging time\u201d following two court rulings that sided with First Nations, a move critics say threatens property and development rights.<\/p>\n
Abbott has warned against directly linking treaties to UNDRIP and DRIPA, but stresses modern treaties will provide much-needed certainty and benefits for First Nations, government and industry.<\/p>\n
He says one of his priorities is to speed up treaty negotiations, adding that some First Nations have waited more than 30 years for agreements.<\/p>\n

How Daniel Roher and Matt Johnson charmed rising British star Leo Woodall<\/p>\n
After two back-to-back films with high-profile Toronto directors, British star Leo Woodall suggests he should perhaps only work with filmmakers on this side of the Atlantic.<\/p>\n
Woodall, who had a breakout role in the Sicily-set season of \u201cThe White Lotus\u201d as a hard-partying swindler, has worked with Daniel Roher for the movie \u201cTuner\u201d and with Matt Johnson on a biopic about the early life of the late Anthony Bourdain. <\/p>\n
Woodall\u2019s first taste of Canadian hospitality came two years ago when he stepped onto the set of Roher\u2019s \u201cTuner,\u201d which marked the Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker\u2019s first foray into narrative features.<\/p>\n
The film, which also stars Dustin Hoffman, follows a piano prodigy turned piano tuner who suffers from Hyperacusis, a hearing disorder that amplifies everyday sounds, leading to pain in the ear.<\/p>\n
