鶹 study provides further evidence that aspen patches can mitigate wildfires

dzܲԾé - Thu, 07/02/2026 - 15:07

Researchers at 鶹 have confirmed that aspen play a key role in forest fire prevention and mitigation across Canada. Planting these trees near communities can reduce both the likelihood and severity of fires and limit how far they spread, the researchers said.

“Aspen is not a 100 per cent effective fire deterrent, but compared with other species, it is a better choice to plant around communities or critical infrastructure,” said Flavie Pelletier, lead author and recent PhD graduate in Natural Resource Sciences.

Pearl Eliadis on Quebec's Domestic Violence Disclosure Law | Weekends with Rob Fai

News - Wed, 07/01/2026 - 16:52

June 20, 2026 | Pearl Eliadis joined Weekends with Rob Fai to unpack Quebec's newly passed Bill 4, the Gabby Renaud Law, which comes into force in December and will allow people at risk of intimate partner violence to request information about a partner's police or corrections history. Modelled in part on the UK's Clare's Law, the Quebec version stands out from similar disclosure regimes already in place in Alberta and Saskatchewan by pairing "the right to ask and the right to know" with a support component for people once they receive that information.
