"The Regina Police Service says threats related to a permit allowing a downtown Regina mosque to amplify a call to prayer will be taken seriously and investigated under Canada's enhanced hate crime laws. In a statement issued this week, police said they are aware of threats being made in connection with the practice and have increased security measures around Muslim places of gathering. "The Regina Police Service is aware of threats being made in relation to this practice and, in response, an enhanced police presence will be visible around Muslim places of gathering," the statement said." @reginapolice @JamesWestgateSn

"There's a new report from Equifax Canada painting a grim picture of Canadian household finances." Equifax's Rebecca Oakes "We look at the dollar amount of those individuals are becoming insolvent. That balance is much higher than it has been in previous years. So, you know, when consumers are finding themselves in financial difficulty, it's actually for a much greater amount of debt that they kind of end up with" "...typically it's those consumers that don't own a home, or maybe those perhaps in the lower income." CBC's Seth "But what they're also finding among those insolvencies are individuals who do own a home, that they themselves are sort of finding themselves in that level of debt." Oakes "Some of that is really going to be linked to consumers who maybe purchased homes during the pandemic when those interest rates were super low." Anyone recall Jun 9, 2020 Justin Trudeau's interruption “Interest rates are at historic lows, Glen.”? — consequences @equifaxcanada
