Montreal shooting, inflation & CPI on the rise, Keir Starmer out, and more

6/22/202628 min

A shooting in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood leaves one person and a police officer dead. The suspect was also killed.

Also: The high price of everything. Canada’s inflation rate rises to 3.2%, its highest level in more than two years. The cost of gas was the driver. The consumer price index also ticked up. That was led by alcohol and food, especially tomatoes, which have jumped a whopping 45% from a year ago.

And: Just two years after his landslide victory, Keir Starmer announces his resignation as UK Prime Minister following a string of missteps and mistakes, and plummeting popularity. He plans to leave his post by September.

Plus: Canada’s nuclear ambitions, new stop planned for Alto high-speed rail, behind the scenes of India’s Cockroach Party, and more.
