Mississauga city council approves one-year data centre pause (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Mississauga council voted unanimously Wednesday to put a one-year freeze on new data centre projects, the latest municipality to hit the brakes on the artificial intelligence-fuelled buildout. The pause is framed as a chance to study what guardrails the city could place around new data centres as local lawmakers grapple with residents’ concerns about possible energy, water and noise impacts. “We’ve heard your voice loud and clear,” Martin Reid, the councillor who sponsored the moratorium, said d
El Niño expected to extend fall and delay winter’s arrival (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s shaping up to be a mild fall across much of Canada, The Weather Network’s forecast suggests, with a potentially historic El Niño expected to prolong the season and delay winter’s arrival.

Read excerpt
Wildfires across northern Ontario have torched more of the province’s forest than during any previous year on record, early estimates suggest, with a recent burst of fast-moving wildfires responsible for nearly all of the area burned in just a few days. The province’s latest numbers suggest fires have burned through more than 7,250 square kilometres of Ontario’s forest, surpassing the previous record set in 2021. Fire estimates are often revised once officials get a closer look at the devastatio
