Canada has reached an agreement with 120,000 striking federal workers, effectively ending one of the largest public-sector work stoppages in the country’s history, which had crippled services from passport renewals to immigration.

Toronto Star – ‘New’ a Fresh Take on On-Stage Portrayals of New Immigrants Deserves to Get the On-Screen Series Treatment
“New,” Pamela Mala Sinha’s portrait of a friend-group of Bengali intellectuals in 1970s Winnipeg, is a strikingly fresh take on stage and screen portraits of first-generation immigrants. As Sinha noted in a 2022 interview with the Globe and Mail, Canadian playwriting tends to come from the second- and third-generation perspective, with parents often used as comic foils and portrayed as old-fashioned (think Mr. Kim in “Kim’s Convenience,” which started its life as a play).
