‘Don't leave help sitting on the table': Sask. reaches out for federal wildfire support
WATCH: As some residents are being cleared to return home after wildfires threatened their communities, the province is looking for federal support. Loading the player instance is taking more time than usual Loading the player instance is taking more time than usual After repeated calls for the province to seek military support from Ottawa to aid with wildfires — the provincial government says it's seeking federal help and expects to hear back soon. This news comes as the opposition and some evacuees demand better support all around. 'When lives and homes are on the line, you don't leave help sitting on the table,' NDP MLA Jordan McPhail said at a news conference Monday morning. He's referring to federal help, particularly military help, and why it hasn't been brought in for over a week now. That inquiry may have been answered, in part, by the provincial justice minister Monday afternoon. 'We have indeed identified ways that we believe the federal government can support our efforts, 'Tim McLeod told CTV News. The province isn't asking for federal support with firefighting, but with getting evacuees back home and dealing with the aftermath of the fires. 'We have made a request to the federal government to provide two base camps to support our crews and have also made a request for tents for sheltering up to 200 people,' he said. The government will not confirm if this is the military aid which has been talked about by the NDP opposition and others. Meanwhile, some evacuees joined the NDP in Saskatoon Monday to express their frustration over the system to get aid to those who need it. Kari Lentowicz from Denare Beach lost her entire home to fire. She says she hasn't received any financial aid yet and doesn't know why the system is so delayed.

She's staying with a friend in Saskatoon and knows others don't have that luxury and would like the support handled better. 'I can still feed myself, I bought some clothes the other day, even though I had a breakdown in the store. I am fortunate that I've got a place to lay my head at night that isn't an evac centre,' she says. Denare Beach wildfire Kari Lentowicz' home in Denare Beach, before the wildfire.

'We can see next door what could have been done, what should have been done, but wasn't, just wasn't,' Miller said. McLeod says residents needing support should call the SPSA or Red Cross. Those residents CTV News spoke to say they have called all the numbers, and are still waiting.

Create Account Released on Tuesday, the new Angus Reid survey suggests two-thirds of Canadians support Prime Minister Mark Carney's announcement Monday to boost Canada's defence spending to two per cent of our GDP — a minimum requirement under NATO that Canada has never achieved since the alliance introduced the benchmark in 2006. That plan, Carney said Monday, will ensure 'Canada is strong at home and reliable abroad,' and prioritize made-in-Canada manufacturing and supply chains. Sixty-eight per cent of those polled are in favour of increasing Canada's defence spending — with 51% wanting Canada to stop at two per cent, while 17% say they'd like to see spending go even higher. Twenty-three per cent want to keep spending where it is — currently 1.37% of GDP — while just 10% want defence spending reduced. Your noon-hour look at what's happening in Toronto and beyond.

Broken down by party, 71% of Liberal supporters and 76% of Conservatives want defence spending increased, dropping to 55% for Bloc Quebecois voters, and 51% for NDP supporters. Unsurprisingly, NDP supporters were most likely to want defence spending decreased at 21%. With word this week that NATO's considering increasing defence spending benchmarks as high as five per cent, 47% say a spending increase that high would take away from other priorities, while 36% described it as a fair target.

Forty-six per cent say they're not that confident the Liberal government will make significant progress in strengthening our armed forces, compared to 44% who say they do. Canada's efforts to distance itself from the United States also includes Canada signing onto the ReArm Europe defence plan, a deal Carney is hoping to ink by Canada Day. Sixty per cent described this plan as a good idea, while just 23% said Canada should remain close to the United States. Canada, Carney said on Monday, needs to find ways to stop sending three-quarters of our defence capital spending to the United States. The poll was conducted among 4,067 Canadian adults between June 2 and June 8, 2025 via the Angus Reid Forum. As margins-of-error cannot be applied to online panels, a comparable probability sample would yield one no greater than ± 1.5%, 19 times out of 20. bpassifiume@ X: @bryanpassifiume RECOMMENDED VIDEO Toronto Blue Jays NHL Columnists Toronto Maple Leafs Columnists

Despite court ruling, Quebec plans to maintain 33% tuition hike for out-of-province students
By Amid legal pushback, Quebec says it remains committed to its contentious tuition reform targeting Concordia and McGill, vowing to maintain a steep fee increase for out-of-province students. In April, Quebec Superior Court Justice Éric Dufour ruled that parts of the overhaul were 'unreasonable' and ordered key sections struck down. The Coalition Avenir Québec government did not appeal the ruling by Monday's deadline. Dufour told the province to immediately scrap French proficiency requirements for non-Quebec applicants and gave the government nine months to come up with a new fee structure for out-of-province Canadian students. The government's plan had called for a 33-per-cent tuition hike for these students. In his ruling, Dufour criticized Déry's arguments, echoing the universities' contention that the plan was put forward without sufficient evidence. 'We observe an absence of data on which the minister claims to base her decision,' Dufour wrote. 'At the very least, what she had on hand in no way substantiates the reasonableness of the outcome.' On Tuesday, Simon Savignac, a spokesperson for Higher Education Minister Pascale Déry, indicated that the government stands by its original plan. 'The ruling not only supports the measure to correct the financial imbalance between English- and French-language universities, it also recognizes the government's responsibility to take the necessary steps to protect the French language in Quebec,' he told The Gazette. 'With regard to the tuition fees charged to Canadian students outside Quebec, we firmly believe that it is not up to the Quebec government to guarantee financial accessibility to studies for non-Quebecers.' He said the government is 'staying the course' on the tuition hike. The government's interpretation of the ruling is that the judge did not rule that the 33-per-cent hike was unreasonable, but rather 'the path we've taken and the reasons invoked for the increase.' Savignac said it's too early to say how the government will proceed. Regarding French proficiency, he said Déry 'will be pursuing discussions with English-speaking universities over the coming weeks regarding the terms and conditions surrounding knowledge of French for students from outside Quebec.' In their lawsuits, Concordia and McGill said Quebec's reforms violated equality and language rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. McGill also asserted that the measures contravened anti-discrimination provisions of Quebec's Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, particularly regarding harm to its reputation and academic freedom. However, the judge did not rule on charter issues, saying the matter could be resolved on administrative law grounds. Like the Quebec government, Concordia and McGill did not appeal the ruling.
