Union says collective agreement is just the start of a broader fight to unionize major employers across the country
Canadian warehouse workers have signed the first-ever collective agreement with Walmart, a breakthrough labour organizers are calling a “historic and powerful step”.
But the union says the deal with a corporation long hostile to organized labour is only an opening salvo in a broader fight to unionize major employers across the country.
A long trade war looms. Trump’s scattershot protectionism, chaotic tariffs and belligerence against our natural allies guarantees that US trade policy will remain a hot mess
We are in for a long trade war.
In the months since “Liberation Day” last year, when Donald Trump let loose a volley of tariffs against imports from everywhere, countries have rushed to build new relationships in the hope of maybe circumventing the US to protect the global trading system.
Prime Minister Mark Carney warned this week that Jewish Canadians are being "brutally targeted," while also announcing a new anti-racism council that reportedly includes two members with troubling views on the Jewish state.
Following Carney's speech on antisemitism, critics reacted with anger at the makeup of the council and questioned how a body meant to fight hate and antisemitism includes two members who are reportedly hostile to the concerns of the Jewish community.
Omar Alghabra, a former Liberal party cabinet minister and Member of Parliament, has faced criticism for publicly mourning former Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. The former leader of the PLO was described by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies as "the father of modern terrorism." In the days following the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attacks on Israel, he declined a request to condemn them, when asked by Canada's Rebel News.
Alghabra has also faced scrutiny over past comments regarding Israel. In 2005, he criticized Toronto's police chief for participating in and leading a "Walk with Israel" event, according to The Jerusalem Post. He described the event as "a show of solidarity for a foreign state currently in the midst of an unresolved conflict" and referred to Israel as "a country that is conducting a brutal and the longest contemporary military occupation in the world."
Canada's opposition leader, Pierre Poilievre, pointed to a separate encounter with him involving a terrorist organization. "I remember Mr. Alghabra lobbying me before he was in politics to keep Hezbollah legal, so I'm not sure that he's the right guy to combat antisemitism," he told reporters.
Howeer, the Jerusalem Post reported that Alghabra had described Hamas as a terrorist organization during a 2016 parliamentary debate.
The other controversial member of the council, Avnish Nanda, represented efforts to keep a pro-Palestinian encampment at the University of Alberta in place. Critics of the encampment argued it created a hostile atmosphere for Jewish students following Hamas' Oct. 7 terror attack on Israel.
In April, B’nai Brith Canada’s League for Human Rights released a report showing that 6,800 antisemitic incidents took place in the country in 2025, representing a 9.4% increase over 2024. On average, this represented 18.6 incidents a day and was the "highest volume" the group has recorded since it began tracking incidents.
"I'm a Canadian-born Jew serving as rabbi of the vibrant Tifereth Beth David Jerusalem community in Montreal, and I was truly shocked to learn that among the people chosen to sit on Prime Minister Carney's newest council is Omar Alghabra, who publicly mourned the death of Yasser Arafat and remained silent when asked to condemn the attacks of October 7th," Rabbi Zolly Claman of Montreal's Tifereth Beth David Jerusalem Congregation told Fox News Digital.
"Canadian Jews are struggling to understand how our prime minister believed this would be a constructive appointment," Claman said.
When announcing the new Council on Rights, Equality and Inclusion, Carney stated, "The council has a clear mission to combat racism and hate in all their forms and to guide the Government of Canada as part of our efforts to build a fairer, more just, more inclusive society," He also said that, "The crisis of antisemitism in Canada today is specific, it’s severe, and it demands a targeted response. And that is what our government is fully committed to," Reuters reported.
When asked about Prime Minister Mark Carney's announcement, B'nai Brith Canada, one of the country's leading Jewish advocacy organizations said that while it welcomed the prime minister's acknowledgment of rising antisemitism, it believes additional action is needed to address what it views as a growing crisis facing Canada's Jewish community.
"B'nai Brith Canada acknowledges the Prime Minister's solidarity with the Jewish community," Simon Wolle, the organization's chief executive officer, told Fox News Digital. "He was right to mandate that the Special Advisory Council on Rights, Equality and Inclusion prioritize researching and combating antisemitism."
At the same time, Wolle questioned whether the newly announced council has the authority and scope necessary to effectively address the problem.
"But we are concerned because the council does not have the power or scale to address this crisis in an appropriate and meaningful manner," he said. "It is an important aspect of the government's approach to combating antisemitism, but it is not sufficient."
Wolle added that B'nai Brith Canada will "continue to call on the government to establish a National Emergency Task Force on Antisemitism, among other initiatives, because the Jewish community needs immediate action, not just words during this time of violence, hate, and threats to our right to exist and participate in Canadian society," he said. Wolle did not offer comment on either Omar Alghabra and Avnish Nanda appointments.
Claman added, "The Jewish community makes up just 1.2% of Canada's population, yet is the target of 75% of hate crimes, which is astoundingly disproportionate. Canada does not have a hate problem; it has a Jew-hatred problem. There is a very specific virus spreading rapidly across this country, and our prime minister is administering a broad catch-all antibiotic that will not help."
Canadian Jewish activist Ariella Kimmel said his speech lacked concrete solutions and failed to address what she described as growing hostility toward Jewish communities.
"There was nothing on the vile chants we hear on the streets, nothing about the mobs that target Jewish neighborhoods, nothing calling for police to enforce the laws that already exist," she said.
"What Canada doesn't need is another special council on racism. We need to address the real elephant in the room, the targeting of Jews using 'Zionism' as an excusable reason, led by radicalized progressives and Islamist fundamentalists," she said.
In response to Fox News Digital questions, a spokesperson for Canadian Heritage said, "The Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality, and Inclusion will play a critical role in bringing communities together around our shared values and in confronting hate and racism in our communities, so that all Canadians can live in our country without fear, in safety and dignity."
The statement continued, "On June 1, 2026, the Prime Minister directed the Council to begin by focusing on antisemitism. The Council has a clear mission: to combat racism and hate in all their forms, and to guide the Government of Canada as we build a fairer, more just, and more inclusive country. Information about the Council, including the terms of reference and member biographies, will be posted online in the near future."
Fox News Digital reached out to both Omar Alghabra and Avnish Nanda for comment.
Ukraine officially apologized to Greece late on Friday over the presence of a sea drone off of the island of Lefkada. Credit: AMNA
Ukraine officially apologized to the Greek government on Friday following the discovery of a Ukrainian sea drone near the Ionian island of Lefkada. The unexpected discovery of the uncrewed surface vessel prompted swift diplomatic action from Athens, which raised serious safety and environmental concerns regarding the military presence in Greek territorial waters.
Last week, the Greek government escalated the issue by lodging a formal double diplomatic demarche. Athens directed its official protests to both the Ukrainian Embassy located in the Greek capital and directly to the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Kyiv. Greek authorities clearly stated that the stray sea drone severely compromised the safety of civilian maritime navigation in the busy Ionian Sea, which is a popular tourist destination both for Greeks and foreigners. Experts noted that any accidental detonation or collision involving the device could have led to human casualties and inflicted extensive environmental damage on the region’s marine ecosystem.
Ukraine’s response to Greece
In direct response to the diplomatic protest from Athens, Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Heorhii Tykhyi released a public statement on social media late on Friday evening, addressing the issue. Tykhyi offered a formal apology on behalf of Ukraine, attributing the drone’s errant journey into Greek waters to the unpredictable circumstances generated by the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine.
“The Ukrainian side expresses its apologies for the incident, stressing that it was the result of circumstances brought about by the ongoing Russian aggression,” Tykhyi wrote in a statement published on Friday. He argued that the discovery off the coast of Lefkada, along with similar events reported in other regions, demonstrates how the current conflict threatens not only Ukraine but also friendly European states and the broader international community.
Addressing the specific maritime concerns raised by the Greek demarche, the Ukrainian foreign ministry noted its strict commitment to international law and the fundamental principles of civilian maritime safety. Ukraine also reiterated a strong, vested interest in preventing any similar occurrences from happening in the future.
Tykhyi pointed out that international and regional security, specifically maritime safety and combating the operations of Russia’s “shadow fleet,” remain urgent, shared priorities for both Greece and Ukraine. Despite the immediate friction caused by the drone’s discovery, Ukraine utilized the statement to emphasize the strength of its bilateral relationship with Greece.
The foreign ministry expressed deep gratitude to the Greek government and the Greek people, praising the country for its steadfast, continuous support of Ukraine since the very first days of Russia’s full-scale invasion. Kyiv concluded by reaffirming its dedication to deepening these friendly relations and maintaining a constructive dialogue across all areas of mutual interest.
Marta Magalhães foi eliminada dos quadros de pares femininos e mistos e o Sand Series de Portimão ficou sem jogadores portugueses, mas o derradeiro fim de semana na Praia da Rocha contará com os melhores do mundo e vários atletas nacionais nas provas que compõem a melhor semana de ténis de praia na Europa.
Um dia depois de somar duas vitórias no arranque da competição, Marta Magalhães não resistiu aos oitavos de final de pares femininos com Maire Bray e aos quartos de final de pares mistos com Mathieu Guegano.
Na parte da manhã, a portuguesa (22.ª classificada no ranking mundial) e a francesa (21.ª) perderam por 6-2 e 6-3 com a italiana Veronica Casadei e a espanhola Ariadna Costa Graell, quartas favoritas. Já ao final da tarde, Magalhães e Guegano cederam pelos parciais de 6-2 e 6-0 face aos segundos favoritos, Ariadna Costa Graell e Antonio Miguel Ramos Viera.
Em 2025, a açoreana e o gaulês terminaram o Sand Series de Matosinhos como vicecampeões. Já sem portugueses, o Sand Series de Portimão tem as seis melhores duplas masculinas apuradas para os quartos de final.
Líderes do ranking mundial e campeões em Matosinhos no ano passado, os italianos Nicolas Gianotti e Mattia Spoto formam a mais cotada, seguidos dos brasileiros Giovanni Cariani e Daniel Mola, vice-campeões da prova que marcou a estreia da categoria em Portugal.
Na prova feminina, o favoritismo foi ainda mais expressivo, dado que as oito parcerias mais cotadas carimbaram a presença nesta fase. As brasileiras Sophia Chow e Vitoria Marchezini são as melhores da atualidade e a elas seguem-se as italianas Giulia GasparriI e Ninny Valentini, vencedoras em Matosinhos.
Além das fases decisivas do Sand Series, uma das sete provas da categoria a nível mundial, no fim de semana de decisões também serão realizados um torneio internacional júnior (ITF BTJ100 U18), uma Prova A Nacional, um torneio nacional de sub 16, um torneio nacional de +40 anos e um evento social (Taça Beach Tennis Portimão).
