100th Davis Day held in Cape Breton on anniversary of coal miner's death
The 100th anniversary of Davis Day is marked at the Davis Square in New Waterford, N.S. (CTV Atlantic / Ryan MacDonald) Davis Day is commemorated every year in Nova Scotia on June 11 to remember a deadly riot that proved to be pivotal for workers' rights in Canada. One hundred years to the day after the death of Cape Breton coal miner William Davis, hundreds of people gathered at Davis Square in New Waterford, N.S., Wednesday to mark the centennial. A large contingent of Davis's descendants were in attendance, including a great-grandson who bears his name. 'My dad was William Davis, I'm William Davis, my son is William Davis, my grandson is William Davis,' said Bill Davis, who came from Connecticut for his first Davis Day since the 80th anniversary in 2005. 'I think he'd be very proud of all the family that was here today, and the last few days, how we've come together as a family to celebrate him and remember him,' said Davis's granddaughter Norma MacDonald. Davis Day The 100th anniversary of Davis Day is marked at the Davis Square in New Waterford, N.S. (CTV Atlantic / Ryan MacDonald) William Davis, a 37-year-old father of nine, was shot and killed by coal company police during a workers' protest. Davis Day has been marked each June in coal mining communities across Nova Scotia ever since – to not only honour the miner's memory but to raise awareness about safety on the job and workers' rights. In 1985, on the sixtieth Davis Day, ATV News reporter Greg Boone – who attended Wednesday's centennial commemoration – spoke with William Davis' son Bobby Davis at the coal miner's grave in Union Grove Cemetery. The Bobby Davis said he was thirteen years old at the time his father was shot. '(A man) just told me 'Come on with us,' and when he got us home he told us all that there was an accident and father was killed,' Bobby Davis told Boone. Davis Day The 100th anniversary of Davis Day is marked at the Davis Square in New Waterford, N.S. (CTV Atlantic / Ryan MacDonald) On Wednesday, those who worked in the coal mines spoke about how Davis and others who fought for miners' rights helped lead to more equitable wages and safer working conditions. 'There was some major accidents and yes people lost their lives but there were other incidents where some were saved on account of the safety measures they took in the mines,' said John MacLeod, a retired coal miner and current member of the Men of the Deeps. Though coal mining in the Maritimes isn't the industry it once was, Nova Scotia NDP leader Claudia Chender said some of the lessons from that fateful day 100 years ago still apply. 'We heard about the Westray Law at the federal level and the need for that law to actually be used, so I think we remember all of that on a day like today,' Chender said.

Toronto police ID 15-year-old boy killed in Mount Dennis shooting
A 15-year-old boy died after being shot on June 7 in Toronto's Mount Dennis area, near Buttonwood and Charlton Settlement avenues. Toronto police have identified the 15-year-old boy shot and killed in the Mount Dennis neighbourhood over the weekend. Police say Jahkai Jack is the city's 14th homicide victim of the year. A witness told CTV News Toronto on Monday that Jack was with two friends near a bench in the area of Buttonwood and Charlton Settlement avenues, west of Weston Road and Jane Street, when he was shot Saturday night. He recounted hearing the friends asking for help while carrying Jack. The witness said he called 911 but was put on hold for 10 to 15 minutes, prompting him to flag down a passing vehicle to try to get the boy some help at the nearby West Park Healthcare Centre. Police say Jack was later transported to a trauma centre, where he died shortly after. The suspect fled the area before officers arrived, police say. No description has been released. The motive behind the shooting is still unknown. Homicide investigators are asking anyone with information to call them at 416-808-7400 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477). Meanwhile, Toronto Paramedic Services is reviewing their response time to the shooting. On Tuesday, Mayor Olivia Chow, responding to reports that the first caller had to wait six minutes and 43 seconds before they could speak to someone, called it 'unacceptable.' 'People need help immediately when they call. As I said, every moment counts,' Chow said.

‘Hell hath no place hot enough for them': Sask. premier calls out scammers targeting evacuees
The Canadian Red Cross and Government of Saskatchewan are warning residents after receiving reports of scammers targeting wildfire evacuees in the province. 'Individuals eligible for financial assistance will NOT need to provide their social insurance number, bank account information or credit card number during their registration or to receive assistance,' the Red Cross said in a statement Wednesday. The organization said that evacuees will never be asked for any sort of payment in order to receive assistance. Additionally, the organization said it will never send a link through a text message, as the Canadian Red Cross only communicates via email, phone or in-person. Evacuees are asked to stay informed and to immediately contact their local police service if they suspect they've been a victim of fraud. 'Hell hath no place hot enough for them.' — Premier Scott Moe Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe had some choice words for those allegedly scamming residents who have been forced to flee their homes amid the wildfire state of emergency. 'You're the lowest form of life that is in existence here today,' he said, referring to the scammers. The premier noted that many evacuees from the tri-city area of La Ronge faced a dangerous drive in the dead of night while fleeing their homes and had to drive through the wake of the Ditch02 Fire during their escape to Prince Albert. 'For someone to take advantage of a family that is in that situation – hell hath no place hot enough for them,' he added. Moe also asked residents to be diligent and to immediately report any suspected scam or fraud to the Saskatchewan RCMP or their local law enforcement agency. More information on scams and fraud prevention can be found on the Government of Canada's website. Those looking for information on the province's wildfire situation or supports can call the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency's (SPSA) information line at 1-855-559-5502.
