📰 Escalation in Gaza and Diplomatic Efforts

The conflict in the Middle East has seen a significant escalation with new strikes in Gaza following the collapse of a proposed ceasefire deal. While Hamas accepted the terms of a ceasefire proposal brokered by Egypt, Israel found the terms unacceptable and announced it was sending a delegation for further negotiations. Israel's military has instructed 100,000 people to evacuate parts of Rafa, and the country's war cabinet has approved a targeted operation against Hamas. International entities, including Canada, the US, and the UN, have warned of catastrophic humanitarian consequences should an offensive take place. Despite the tensions, there have been celebrations in Rafa with displaced residents expressing gratitude. The proposed ceasefire includes three phases of 42 days each, comprising a ceasefire, a hostage and prisoner swap, and a complete withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza. However, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's War cabinet has decided to continue military operations, emphasizing the need to fight for the lives of captive Israelis held by Hamas. The situation has also sparked protests in Tel Aviv, with some believing the deal offers the best hope for hostages' return.

📚 University Commencements and Anti-Semitism Concerns

Columbia University has canceled its main commencement ceremony due to safety concerns, opting for smaller ceremonies instead. The New York campus has been central to pro-Palestinian demonstrations in the US, with nearly 2500 arrests across over 75 campuses. Meanwhile, McGill University in Montreal has seen continued protests, with students demanding the school divest from companies doing business with Israel. The Prime Minister and the leader of the opposition have denounced the surge of anti-Semitism on Holocaust Remembrance Day. A report reveals a surge in anti-Semitic incidents in Canada, with more than 5,700 cases in 2023, more than double the previous year's figure. The increase is particularly notable in the three months following Hamas's attack on Israel on October 7th.

🚔 Legal Proceedings and Security Concerns

A Winnipeg man, Jeremy Scabi, whose lawyers admit he killed four indigenous women, pleads not guilty due to mental illness. The case has drawn significant attention as it raises questions about criminal responsibility and the impact of mental health on violent acts. Legal experts suggest that proving not criminally responsible due to mental illness can be challenging and may lead to delays in the trial process. If the judge disagrees with the defense, Scabi could face a conviction of first-degree murder. In another case, Donald Trump has been fined for violating a gag order in his criminal hush money trial, with the judge threatening jail time. A Pennsylvania pastor has survived an assassination attempt after an armed man's gun failed to discharge. The attacker was charged with multiple crimes, and a family member of the attacker was later found fatally shot in his home.

🏠 Short-Term Rentals and Housing Policies

The federal Liberals in Canada are proposing new measures to increase transparency over foreign influence, which includes creating a foreign influence registry and giving more power to the country's spy agency. The bill aims to address transnational threats and violence by foreign governments and their representatives. It also seeks to enhance the ability to share information with provincial and local governments, private companies, and academic institutions. The bill comes in response to past incidents of foreign interference in Canadian politics and aims to become law within a year. Additionally, there is a growing focus on short-term rentals like Airbnb and their impact on the housing market. British Columbia is implementing stricter rules for short-term rentals, while in Ontario's Cottage Country, there is a debate on requiring short-term rentals to register and comply with local regulations. These measures are being considered to address housing shortages and concerns about rowdy visitors in some areas.

🎶 Hip Hop Feud and Cultural Milestones

A rap battle between Drake and Kendrick Lamar has escalated, with both artists releasing multiple songs with serious allegations against each other. The feud is believed to have roots in Drake's career and questions about his street credibility. Fans have even renamed Drake's Toronto mansion on Google Maps as owned by Kendrick. The Weeknd, a Canadian Grammy Award winner, has also taken sides with Kendrick, adding to the ongoing feud. Meanwhile, a Beatles fan received a personal reply from Paul McCartney six decades after expressing her love for him. McCartney, now in New York, invited the fan to a photographic exhibition about the early days of Beatlemania at the Brooklyn Museum.

hearing that Jeremy scabi admits to

play06:18

killing their loved ones I don't even

but that's what scab's lawyers are

play06:44

arguing against saying he's not

play06:47

criminally responsible for the deaths

play06:49

due to a mental illness now the question

is not did he do it but why did he do it

play06:54

it's a defense legal experts say is

play06:57

difficult to prove in these types of

play06:59

cases the accused under goes a forensic

anywhere from a few months to a year but

play07:25

the families are holding out hope it's

play07:27

been all about Justice for my cousin and

play07:30

uh we're going to get it we're going to

play07:31

get it and we're going to get all four

play07:33

if the judge disagrees with the defense

play07:35

scabi could be convicted of first-degree

play07:38

murder if he's found not criminally

play07:40

responsible a review board would

play07:42

determine what happens to him which

play07:44

could include time in a psychiatric

strong open and free democracy these

play12:35

strengths however can make Canada Target

play12:37

for those who wish to advance their

play12:39

interests to the detriment of our own

play12:42

the bill requires people who pressure

play12:44

Canadians on behalf of foreign

play12:46

governments to register it also changes

play12:49

the CIS act to allow it to provide more

play12:51

information and gives the spy agency

play21:09

my a battle between two of Hip Hop's

biggest stars continues to spiral ctv's

play21:14

Adrian gobrial on the

play21:17

Discord in the rap game beefs between

play21:19

artists have been around nearly as long

play21:21

as the genre and when I wake up though

play21:24

rarely do we see dueling dis tracks on

play21:26

the level of Canada's own Drake and

play21:28

Compton Kendrick Lamar square off in a

play21:30

heavyweight lyrical battle I think this

play21:33

is insane the artists have released no

play21:35

less than 11 songs detailing serious

play21:38

allegations against each other with

play21:41

piercing Precision the small sample

play21:43

includes this Kendrick track called

play21:44

Euphoria a play on an HBO series with

play21:47

the same title produced by Drake the

play21:50

lyrics speak for

play21:54

[Music]

play21:55

themselves two days ago Drake dropped

play21:57

this reply

play22:01

[Music]

play22:04

I've met Drake twice I've actually met

play22:07

kendri goo music journalist Rudy Blair

play22:09

believes this beef has roots as deep as

play22:12

Drake's career when it comes to street

play22:15

cred um Drake has never really had that

play22:19

even though he's tried with the look The

play22:20

Swagger people are just like dude you're

play22:23

always going to be the wheelchair kid in

play22:25

the grassy when I pr was it appears that

play22:29

Kendrick isn't the only one living

play22:30

rentree in Drake's head fans have also

play22:33

taken to Google Maps and renamed Drake's

play22:35

Toronto Mansion as owned by Kendrick his

play22:39

home is Kendrick's home right now the

play22:41

feud also has Canadian Grammy Award

play22:43

winner the weekend siding with Kendrick

play22:45

sending musical Jabs of his own in

play22:47

Drake's Direction while the fight might

play22:49

be far from over multiple critics

play22:51

believe Canada's very own may be down

play22:54

for the count this could definitely

play22:57

affect his future if if I was Drake

play22:59

honestly I would lay low the clear

play23:02

winner on the streets might actually be

play23:04

new ho King a Toronto restaurant

play23:06

play23:08

used as a backdrop in a music video by

recipient of a wave of hungry music

play23:15

loving customers Adrian griel CTV News
