Recently released data for the first six months of 2024 from Toronto Public Health has found that the median age of death for women experiencing homelessness in the city is just 36.

In 2022, unhoused women who died in Toronto were on average 42 years old. That number was 43 in 2023.

The median age at death for men experiencing homelessness in the first half of 2024 was 50.

Torontonians residents, in general, live much longer with men typically dying at the age of 78 and women at the age of 85, according to 2022 data.

A sudden, rash move by the mercurial administration of U.S. President Donald Trump, in terms of oil tariffs or the Enbridge pipeline, would be a serious source of financial concern, even for Canadians who are eager to see the country wean itself off oil production as a revenue source and hasten the transition to a clean-energy economy.

This has Canada suddenly considering its short and long-term export and transport options for an industry that will still be around for a few more decades.

That includes breathing some life into an idea that sounded fanciful mere months ago: Transporting oil across the northern Manitoba muskeg and filling tankers at a port on Hudson Bay.

As calls grow for removing Canada's interprovincial trade barriers to help counter the effects of a potential trade war with the United States, some experts say Manitoba is among the provinces that stand to gain the most from any regulatory cuts.

That idea was borne out by a recent index from the Montreal Economic Institute, which in 2021 suggested that if those barriers had been completely eliminated in 2020, Manitoba's gross domestic product per capita would be nearly $5,000 higher in 2030 compared to a status quo scenario. Only Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador would have seen greater gains, the institute said, with GDP boosts of $10,000 and $9,000, respectively.

The idea of reducing barriers to trade between the provinces and territories isn't new, but has gained renewed attention in recent weeks, with federal Internal Trade Minister Anita Anand saying this week those barriers could all crumble within a month.

A new project providing transitional housing in converted shipping containers in Gatineau, Que. is proving a success, advocates say.

On a parking lot next to the former Robert-Guertin Centre in Hull, Village Transitiôn aims to reduce homelessness by providing private and safe lodging to residents who previously lived in tents.

The first residents moved in shortly before Christmas and already the 40 units of the project's first stage are full.

"It's small ... but it's perfect," said one woman. CBC is not naming her due to the potential stigma associated with homelessness.

Last trip to the grocery store I couldn't find any non-US salad kits, and Silk NextMilk is made down there now, because I guess our plants were the listeria ones. Chip dip was surprisingly hard to find too, although I did it.

I'm very pleased with how many vegetables actually come from Mexico (definitely via the US though), and there's even a few things you can get from greenhouses, so that situation is less dire than I'd expected.
