NoneAlberta Premier Danielle Smith calling out Prime Minister Justin Trudeau over his government’s plan to give out $250 rebates to Canadians as well as pausing GST on certain foods, some alcohol, and children’s clothes and Christmas toys, ahead of a potential federal election. “The rebate is going to be timed for the new election, I think it’s pretty obvious what they’re trying to do here. Because, if they genuinely wanted to deliver tax relief across the board in a fair way, they would end the carbon tax, they would end the tax on gasoline and diesel, and end the tax on home heating fuel. Instead, they decided to do something really political, that’s going to cause a lot of headaches for retailers. But how is the prime minister’s cheques and GST holiday different than Premier Smith’s affordability payments and fuel tax pause given out to Albertans in the months leading up to the last provincial election? Political experts say other than some small details, it isn’t. “They’re all short-term measures. And she mentions the timing. I looked and the timing is exactly the same. The affordability payments were announced in November 2022 before the spring election in May 2023,” said Brendan Boyd, a political science professor at MacEwan University. For her part, Premier Smith told the media her government’s affordability measures came at a time when Albertans needed it. “When we were at the height of our inflation crisis, you have to remember we were seeing inflation rates of 5 and 6 per cent, we saw gas an oil prices peak at the same time, we saw electricity prices peak at the same time. That’s why we gave our fuel tax reprieve when we did, that cost us somewhere in the order of $2.8 billion to deliver that relief,” explained Smith. Professor Boyd says while a $250 cheque and a slight GST holiday won’t be enough to change the tide of the upcoming federal election, he says Prime Minister Trudeau may be taking some lessons from the us federal election earlier this month. “There’s been a real recognition in the post-mortem of the US election that the democrats have lost working-class voters in swing states and across the board. And I think you’re seeing some of this recognition from the Trudeau government and the Liberals think this is something we need to address,” said Boyd. “I think it shows this is maybe part of the strategy going forward over the next, however long til election, is a concerted attempt to win back working-class voters.”NEW YORK — A New York City police officer shot a 19-year-old man allegedly armed with a gun in the Bronx on Friday, officials say.

Constantino running for NY-21 seatJORGINHO received a ticking-off from referee Anthony Taylor after “turning into Ben White” with some “dark arts” for Arsenal. The former Chelsea star played all 90 minutes as Mikel Arteta’s men moved up to second with a 5-2 win at West Ham. Arsenal scored all five of their goals in a first-half blitz. And the result means they are now within six points of leaders Liverpool, who play defending champs Manchester City on Sunday. The Gunners’ win never looked in doubt after racing into a 4-0 lead. Bukayo Saka’s penalty, which came after a quickfire double from the Hammers, put the result beyond doubt. But that didn’t stop Jorginho from doing everything possible to get his team over the line. With just moments remaining, Arsenal won a direct free-kick which was lined up by loanee Raheem Sterling. The game was a done deal by that point, with many home supporters already exiting the building. Yet Jorginho showed his competitive side by standing in front of West Ham goalie Lukasz Fabianski in an attempt to play mind games. FOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS The Gunners have become the best in the league for their set-piece routines, with defender White often the focal point for ruffling opposition feathers. But Jorginho’s efforts were quickly picked up by ref Taylor, who gave him a telling off before Sterling’s free-kick sailed over the bar. Fans were quick to react to the incident too, with many loving Jorginho’s attempts to replicate the injured White’s set-piece “dark arts.” One said: “Jorginho blissfully epitomising dark arts.” Another declared: “Jorginho still finding the time to be unsporting.” One noted: “Jorginho turned into Ben White for a moment.” Another yelled: “What was he trying to do there?” One fan had a different opinion, adding: “Jorginho ridiculous! Anti-football!”
