Eby won't stop BC Ferries from building new ships in China, but says it's ‘not ideal'

Premier David Eby says he won't interfere with BC Ferries' decision to hire a Chinese state-owned shipyard to build four new vessels, a move that has been panned by opposition critics and unions. The premier faced questions from reporters about the controversial contract for the first time Tuesday, upon return from a trade mission to Asia that did not include a stop in China. Read more: Minister flags concern over BC Ferries' deal with Chinese state-owned shipyard BC Ferries operates independently, but the province, as the B.C. Ferry Authority, is its sole shareholder and it is funded by the provincial and federal governments. That hasn't stopped calls for the NDP to step in and reverse the plan. Eby said he's 'not happy with the result' of BC Ferries' five-year procurement process, but the need to replace the former Crown corporation's major vessels—most of which are 50 years old and frequently break down—is the more pressing matter. 'The decision to reopen…is not just a billion-dollar decision, it is well in excess of that when you're re-tendering again in an inflationary environment,' Eby told reporters in Victoria. 'In addition, the amount of time that would take – it took five years to get to this process, and I will not leave families sitting on the blacktop waiting for a ferry that is broken down in the strait somewhere when they need to get to see grandma.' No Canadian companies placed a bid to build the ferries. B.C.'s main shipbuilder Seaspan said it's currently too busy building for the military, and even when it has time down the line, the company argued last September, it won't be able to compete with countries that pay lower wages and have lower safety standards. Read more: BC Ferries union upset Chinese company was hired to build new vessels Transportation Minister Mike Farnworth said earlier it would cost more than $1 billion extra if BC Ferries were to build in Europe, but he too expressed concern over the contract going to China. The exact value of BC Ferries' contract with China Merchants Industry Weihai Shipyards has not been revealed, with officials citing the need to protect future procurements. Terms include payment tied to delivery, refund guarantees and a fixed price. Read more: Business leader says BC Ferries' hiring of Chinese shipyard is 'informed decision' When the deal was announced, BC Ferries CEO Nicolas Jimenez said CMI Weihai 'was the clear choice based on the overall strength of its bid' and noted the shipyard has built ferries for several major western corporations including Canada's Marine Atlantic. Nevertheless, the decision created a stink in the era of 'Buy B.C.' and 'build, baby, build,' not to mention China and Canada's ongoing trade dispute. 'I agree it's not ideal that the ferry award went to China, but reopening would mean a delay in delivering ferries for British Columbians who are desperate for them. It would mean significantly increased costs, and at this point, I'm not prepared to do that,' Eby said. The premier insisted there's an opportunity to work with the federal government to make sure there's capacity for the next round of BC Ferries vessels, expected after the latest four, to be built in B.C., or at least in Canada. 'It's important to me that wherever we can, we're building Canadian, we're creating Canadian jobs. but it's equally vital to me that when there's no Canadian company willing to bid on a contract, that we don't leave families sitting on the tarmac waiting,' Eby said. 'We need the ferries urgently, and we've got to go. That doesn't excuse either our government or the federal government from the work that we need to do ahead to make sure that the next round of ferries is built right here at home.'

Shovels hit the ground on modern, state-of-the-art fire station in New Tecumseth

A new, 12,600 square-foot, state-of-the-art facility just broke ground in New Tecumseth, Ont. located at 6365 14th Line. (Town of New Tecumseth) A new, 12,600 square-foot, state-of-the-art facility just broke ground in New Tecumseth. Shovels officially touched down Tuesday marking the start of Fire Station #4. The town hopes this modern facility will continue to strengthen emergency response and fire safety within the community. The new fire station, now located at 6365 14th Line, will be the town's fourth municipal station and the second in Alliston, expanding coverage and improving response times for all residents. 'This important project reflects the Town's commitment to public safety, ensuring top-tier fire rescue services for all residents,' said New Tecumseth Mayor Richard Norcross. Before deciding on the site location the town conducted a thorough site suitability review, assessing servicing needs, traffic impact, and financial feasibility. The chosen spot, adjacent to the existing sports field and Public Works yard, was notably the best fit to support efficient fire operations. 'Fire Station #4 will enhance emergency preparedness and response capabilities for high-growth areas. It will be a one-storey facility with three drive-through apparatus bays, firefighter dormitories, training and meeting rooms, administrative offices, a kitchen and dining area, equipment maintenance and decontamination spaces,' shared members of the town. The new facility is set to support faster response times, strengthen emergency preparedness. It is scheduled for completion in late 2026 or early 2027, according to town officials.

Trump to extend TikTok sale deadline for 90 days, White House says

U.S. President Donald Trump will extend a June 19 deadline for China-based ByteDance to divest the U.S. assets of short video app TikTok for 90 days despite a law that mandated a sale or shutdown absent significant progress, the White House said on Tuesday. Trump had already twice granted a reprieve from enforcement of a congressionally mandated ban on TikTok that was supposed to take effect in January. 'President Trump will sign an additional executive order this week to keep TikTok up and running,' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday. That would extend the deadline to mid-September. 'President Trump does not want TikTok to go dark,' she added, saying the administration will spend the next three months making sure the sale closes so that Americans can keep using TikTok with the assurance that their data is safe and secure. Trump said in May he would extend the June 19 deadline after the app helped him with young voters in the 2024 election. Earlier on Tuesday, he had told reporters on Air Force One he expected to again extend the deadline. 'Probably, yeah,' Trump said when asked about extending the deadline. 'Probably have to get China approval but I think we'll get it. I think President Xi will ultimately approve it.' The law required TikTok to stop operating by January 19 unless ByteDance had completed divesting the app's U.S. assets or demonstrated significant progress toward a sale. Trump began his second term as president on January 20 and opted not to enforce it. He first extended the deadline to early April, and then again last month to June 19. In March, Trump said he would be willing to reduce tariffs on China to get a deal done with TikTok's Chinese parent ByteDance to sell the short video app used by 170 million Americans. A deal had been in the works this spring that would spin off TikTok's U.S. operations into a new U.S.-based firm and majority-owned and operated by U.S. investors, but it was put on hold after China indicated it would not approve it following Trump's announcements of steep tariffs on Chinese goods. Democratic senators argue that Trump has no legal authority to extend the deadline, and suggest that the deal under consideration would not meet legal requirements.
