The federal budget has passed its second big test in the House of Commons, as federal Conservatives wrap up a difficult week. One of their MP's crossed the floor to the Liberals, another says he is leaving Parliament altogether.
And: The Canadian Food Inspection Agency culls the ostrich population on a farm in Edgewood, B.C. Yesterday, the Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal to save the flock. Tests last year detected avian flu in some dead ostriches on the farm. The fate of the birds has been hotly debated, as the farm owners and supporters have demanded they be saved.
Also: Drought is forcing many Canadians who rely on wells to turn to bottled water. And the line to dig new wells just keeps getting longer.
Plus: Onboard a NATO surveillance plane, what’s next for pharmacare, U.S. flight cancellations, and more.
