Copper wire stolen from 30 West Nipissing utility poles, police investigating
Copper theft continues to grow throughout North America, causing power outages in some remote Nova Scotia areas. CTV News' Paul Hollingsworth reports. Northern Ontario police say thieves caused $40,000 in damage when they stole the grounding copper wire from 30 utility poles in West Nipissing earlier this month. Ontario Provincial Police responded May 7 to the theft of a large amount of copper wire on Guenette Road, it said in a news release Tuesday. 'Officers are seeking the public's assistance in identifying the individual(s) involved in the theft or possession of this item,' OPP said. 'If anyone has any information regarding this investigation, please contact the OPP at 1-888-310-1122. Should you wish to remain anonymous, you may call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) or submit information online at where you may be eligible to receive a cash reward of up to $2,000. Ref.# E250570942." According to Schmidt's Auto Recycling, scrap copper prices can range between $1.96 and $4.52 per pound depending on the type. Thieves also stole about $100,000 of copper wiring by cutting down 33 hydro poles in Cobalt near the Hound Chute Generating Station. Theft charges laid A pair of suspects from Quebec were arrested in Matheson and charged with stealing about $50,000 in three separate incidents. In April, OPP charged a 35-year-old man for damaging hydro poles and stealing copper wire in the Town of Spanish. There is no indication any of the cases are related. Why do thieves target copper? 'Thieves target any areas of exposed copper for its high scrap value and the ease of taking it to a number of different scrap yards for cash,' Ken Hall Plumbers said in a blog post on why copper is stolen so much. 'Stolen copper is valuable as scrap metal because it can be easily reused to make fibre optics and high-value plumbing and electrical parts.'

Repeat impaired driver gets 9-year sentence for crash that killed 2
The impaired driver in a 2023 collision in Ottawa's east end that left two people dead has been given a nine-year prison sentence, an Ottawa court heard Tuesday. In May 2024, Shallen Mckay pleaded guilty to two charges of impaired driving causing death, and one charge each of driving while prohibited and taking a motor vehicle without consent. The charges stemmed from a crash on Aug. 2, 2023, at the intersection of St. Laurent Boulevard and Montreal Road. Taking into account the time she has already spent in jail since her arrest, Mckay has more than six years left to serve. The Crown had asked for a 12-year sentence and her defence had argued for five years. Mckay had a previous impaired driving conviction dating back to 2018. In that case, she was sentenced to 30 days in jail and probation, as well as a 12-month driving prohibition. Way over speed limit According to a statement of facts about the August 2023 collision, Mckay ran four red lights and was speeding between 156 and 162 km/h in a 50 km/h zone before the crash. The light at the intersection she entered just before the collision had been red for 38 seconds. Her blood-alcohol concentration was nearly three times the legal limit. Franck Ntwari, 41, and Innocent Muhoza, 44, died in the other vehicle. The two men were heading home after having dinner with friends before the collision occurred. Mélanie Rubavum, Ntwari's mother, was recovering from surgery when she heard her son was gone, she previously told CBC.
