Conestoga College to vacate buidlings in Kitchener and Brantford as leases expire
Conestoga College announced the leases at their locations at 274 Colborne St. in Brantford and 49 Frederick St. in Kitchener are expiring.
A statement from the college to CBC News says the programs offered at those locations will move to a new spot.
"In downtown Kitchener, academic-related operations will transition to 1 Young St.," the statement said.
"In Brantford, operations will move to 50 Wellington St.."
The Brantford move takes effect May 1 while the Kitchener move to Young Street will happen in September.
Student housing and other locations
Across from the Frederick Street campus in Kitchener, the college is in the process of renovating a former office building for student housing. The college says the redevelopment of that 12-story vacant office building at 22 Frederick St. will continue.
Colleges in Ontario have undergone a number of changes this year due to international student caps. Conestoga saw their intake of students cut by 50 per cent.
Support staff at Conestoga College were told at the beginning of April they can expect layoffs in the near future.
Vikki Poirier, president of OPSEU Local 238 which represents support staff at the college, said at the time they had been holding information sessions for employees knowing other colleges were cutting jobs.
Conestoga has also announced other relocations and partnership programs:
The college says it will also welcome students to its new location in Stratford this fall.
Phase 2 of the Conestoga Skilled trade campus in Cambridge is scheduled to welcome students in the fall of 2026.
The school has also partnered with the Grand Erie District School Board to form a new program with the board called the College-Within-a-School Program. It's the first one in the province.
There's no word on the future of the buildings at Frederick Street in Kitchener or Colborne Street in Brantford.

'Uncertainty is the only thing that is certain': Sask. farmers react to Chinese duty on canola
Canola producers say they're not surprised about China's latest move in its ongoing trade war with Canada. Everybody was kind of expecting this day to come. It was just a matter of when and what level the tariffs were going to be applied at, said Bill Prybylski, president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan. On Tuesday, China's Ministry of Commerce announced a 75.8 per cent preliminary duty (new window) on Canadian canola seed after an anti-dumping investigation it began last year. China claims the dumping of Canadian canola into the Chinese market is hurting its domestic canola oil market. The investigation — and the 100 per cent tariff levied on Canadian canola oil and meal in March — were launched in response to Canada's 100 per cent tariff on Chinese electric vehicles. Ottawa has said China has until September, when its investigation formally ends, to make a final decision on the duties, but it could extend the deadline by six months. 'Caught in the middle' While the latest round of canola tariffs were expected, that doesn't make the process any less frustrating for producers like Prybylski. We feel like we're caught in the middle of a trade war that we neither wanted, or started, or have any influence on, he said, speaking with CBC News from his farm near Yorkton, Sask., about 175 kilometres northeast of Regina. Multiple agricultural and canola associations say China's move effectively shuts Canadian canola out of the Chinese market. According to the Canola Council of Canada, China is the largest market for canola seed and the second largest market for Canadian canola. The latest data provided by the council (new window) shows Canada's canola exports to China totalled $4.9 billion in 2024. For now, producers are cautiously watching the price of canola. Rick White, president and CEO of the Canada Canola Growers Association, said it is too early to tell what those prices might look like. But with the harvest of this season's crop set to get underway in the coming weeks, there's no doubt this is going to be economically painful, he said. The price is likely to sag, the opportunity to deliver will likely be slowed and it could be a rough road here for the next year, White said. Prybylski agreed, saying he believes many producers will likely have to sell their products at a loss. Premier Scott Moe said he wants a quick resolution to this dispute and hopes to speak with Prime Minister Mark Carney soon. Photo: CBC / Don Somers Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe lamented the new duty's effects on producers in the province. Speaking in Saskatoon on Tuesday, Moe said he has reached out to Prime Minister Mark Carney to speak with him on the issue and get it dealt with immediately. Moe said the Canadian canola sector is larger than the steel, aluminum and electric vehicle industries combined. Our federal government cannot sacrifice a $43-billion canola industry, 200,000 jobs in that industry that is largely based, in fairness, in Western Canada, to protect the fledging electric vehicle industry, largely based in Eastern Canada, Moe said. WATCH | Canola farmers feel forgotten amid trade war, ongoing Chinese tariffs: In early June, Canadian and Chinese trade ministers committed to meet to address trade issues. In a post on social media Tuesday (new window) , the Chinese Ministry of Commerce said officials from both countries met four days ago and discussed trade and ways to deepen co-operation. The Prime Minister's Office deferred comment on China's latest canola tariff to the minister of international trade, who did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Saskatchewan Opposition NDP Leader Carla Beck urged Moe to visit China immediately. Given the level of threat we see right now, it doesn't make any sense to me that we are not using that office today to deal with this, she said in Regina. Moe said he's open to going on a trade mission to China with Carney. Saskatchewan has a trade office in Shanghai and Moe went there in 2018. China remains a top importer of Canadian canola, but it exports few electric vehicles to Canada. Canada has justified its levies on Chinese electric vehicles by arguing they protect planned investments at home. Canada also matched a similar move by then-U.S. president Joe Biden, who hit Chinese EVs with American tariffs. Chinese EVs are significantly cheaper than North American-made EVs, in part because of lower labour and environmental standards, and state subsidies. WATCH | From April: 'That's a big hit': China slaps 100% tariff on Canadian canola products: Cathy Holtslander, director of research and policy at the National Farmers Union, said that although the latest canola announcement is not ideal, Canadians shouldn't panic. Speaking in Saskatoon, Holtslander said the sale of canola to export markets doesn't really begin until October. That means the effect may not be immediate. Holtslander said she believes the latest announcement is a negotiation tactic and could be resolved politically. The politics are extremely complex and unpredictable. I think uncertainty is the only thing that is certain now.

Anaergia Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Anaergia Inc. ('Anaergia', the 'Company', 'us', or 'our') (TSX: ANRG) (OTCQX: ANRGF), a company that offers integrated waste-to-value solutions to reduce greenhouse gases by cost-effectively turning organic waste into renewable natural gas ('RNG'), fertilizer, and water, released its financial results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 ('Q2 2025'), and the related management's discussion and analysis ('MD&A') for the period. All financial results are reported in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated. Highlights and Management Commentary Anaergia's financial results for the second quarter of 2025 reflect the ongoing strategic transition in its business model. The Company's shift to a capital-light strategy was the primary driver behind our strong quarterly results led by significantly higher revenue, higher gross profit margin, and an increase in Revenue Backlog. Anaergia is uniquely positioned to benefit from the growing demand for sustainable waste solutions, underpinned by a robust market, and regulatory and environmental tailwinds. The Company provides complete, integrated resource recovery solutions globally. Anaergia's products and services respond to regulatory and customer demand for sustainable waste management services that are superior to landfills and composting while producing carbon negative fuel, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Anaergia is focused on providing cost effective and sustainable solutions that leverage our experience with project development, execution and our network of owned infrastructure. "Reflecting on my first year as CEO at Anaergia, I am excited to highlight the transformative progress we've made. We have strategically redefined Anaergia as a leading technology company in the RNG sector, delivering complete solutions though our capital sales business, and we are well positioned to capture expanding opportunities. Our second-quarter financial results demonstrate significant advancements enabled by our transition to a capital-light business model, clearly showcasing Anaergia's positive trajectory," stated Assaf Onn, Chief Executive Officer of Anaergia. "Additionally, our Revenue Backlog surged to $244 million at the end of the quarter, increasing from $200 million in the previous quarter and $104 million at the start of the year. This growing backlog, along with $43.8 million in new contracts announced since the end of the second quarter, enhances our visibility and optimism for the future. We are enthusiastic about the ongoing transition and remain confident that the most promising developments are yet to come," added Mr. Onn. Financial Results for Q2 2025 Financial highlights: Revenue increased by 36.8%, or $8.7 million, to $32.3 million in Q2 2025, as compared to Q2 2024. Revenue increased primarily due to higher revenue from Capital Sales, most significantly in Italy and North America. Gross profit margin percentage increased to 32.5% in Q2 2025 from 17.6% in Q2 2024, or a 14.9 increase in percentage points. This is attributable to higher margins from all three segments, Capital Sales, Build-Own-Operate ('BOO'), and Operation Maintenance Services ('O&M'). Adjusted EBITDA 1 loss in Q2 2025 of $2.2 million improved by 72.1%, from an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $8.0 million reported in Q2 2024. This positive variance reflects a substantial improvement in our results from operations which was driven by the increases in revenue and in gross profit. Three months ended: 30-Jun-25 30-Jun-24 % Change (In millions of Canadian dollars, except %) Revenue 32.3 23.6 +36.8% Gross profit 10.5 4.1 +152.9% Gross profit % 32.5% 17.6% +14.9 percentage points Loss from operations (4.1) (11.7) +64.6% Net loss (9.5) (13.4) +29.0% Adjusted EBITDA 1 (2.2) (8.0) +72.1% Six months ended: 30-Jun-25 30-Jun-24 % Change (In millions of Canadian dollars except %) Revenue 57.1 48.6 +17.7% Gross profit 15.9 10.6 +49.6% Gross profit % 27.8% 21.9% +5.9 percentage points Loss from operations (9.8) (21.9) +55.2% Net loss (15.4) (24.8) +38.1% Adjusted EBITDA 1 (6.2) (14.1) +56.2% Statement of Financial Position 30-Jun-23 31-Dec-24 (In millions of Canadian dollars) Total Assets 226.1 233.3 Total Liabilities 185.5 180.1 Equity 40.6 53.2 For a more detailed discussion of Anaergia's results for Q2 2025, please see the Company's financial statements for Q2 2025 and related MD&A, which are available at the Company's SEDAR+ page at Non-IFRS® Measures This press release makes reference to certain non-International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non-IFRS measures to provide investors with supplemental measures. Management also uses non-IFRS measures internally in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets and assess our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. Management believes these non-IFRS measures and industry metrics are important supplemental measures of operating performance because they eliminate items that have less bearing on operating performance and highlight trends in the core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. Management believes such measures allow for assessment of our operating performance and financial condition on a basis that is more consistent and comparable between reporting periods. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of public companies. Definitions of non-IFRS measures and industry metrics used in this press release are provided below. ' Adjusted EBITDA ' is defined as net earnings before finance costs, taxes and depreciation and amortization adjusted for our normalized proportionate interest in our Build-Own-Operate assets and one-time or non-recurring items, stock-based compensation expense, asset impairment charges and write downs, gains and losses for equity-accounted investees, gain or loss on equity method adjustment, significant one-time provisions, foreign exchange gains or losses, restructuring costs, Enterprise Resource Planning ('ERP') customization and configuration costs, litigation and other claims settlements, gains and losses resulting from changes in certain balance sheet valuations (such as derivatives and warrants) and acquisition costs. ' EBITDA ' is defined as net income before finance costs, taxes and depreciation and amortization. ' Revenue Backlog ' is defined as the balance of unrecognized, undiscounted, consolidated revenues from signed contracts in our Capital Sales and O&M Services segments. For our Capital Sales contracts, we have modeled only projects that have been contracted. For our O&M Services segment, while most of our in-hand contracts are 5-15 years in tenure, we have conservatively modeled for only 3 years of contracted revenue. See 'Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures' below for a reconciliation of the foregoing non-IFRS measures to their most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. Conference Call and Webcast Details A conference call to review the Company's financial results will take place at 9:00 a.m. (EDT) on Wednesday August 13, 2025. It will be hosted by management of Anaergia. An accompanying slide presentation will be posted to the Investor Relations section of the Company's website shortly before the call. To listen to the webcast live: The webcast will be archived and available in the Investor Relations section of our website following the call.

Grown Rogue Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
Pro Forma Revenue and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, including New Jersey affiliate, ABCO Garden State LLC ("ABCO"), were $8.01 million and $1.82 million, respectively, up 4% and down 12% year-over-year, and up 8% and down 2% on an apples-to-apples basis, excluding the 2024 second quarter contributions from the termination of the Vireo services agreement. Continued ramp in our New Jersey cultivation operations' second full quarter of sales, ongoing growth investments in talent and overhead, and substantial pricing pressure in Oregon and Michigan impacted our state-level and overall margins. Oregon operations generated $3.08 million in revenue and $0.80 million in Adjusted EBITDA (26.1% margin), maintaining healthy margins despite a challenging pricing environment, with our ASPs on A-grade flower down 25% YoY. Michigan operations contributed $2.28 million in revenue and $0.78 million in Adjusted EBITDA (34.2% margin), maintaining healthy margins despite a challenging pricing environment, with our ASPs on A-grade flower down 26% YoY. New Jersey affiliate ABCO generated $2.65 million in revenue and $1.29 million in Adjusted EBITDA (48.6% margin), demonstrating continued operational progress and replicable execution of our cultivation platform. Reported IFRS revenue was $5.56 million, with Adjusted EBITDA of $0.53 million. MEDFORD, Ore., Aug. 12, 2025 /CNW/ - Grown Rogue International Inc. ("Grown Rogue" or the "Company") (CSE: GRIN) (OTC: GRUSF), a flower-forward cannabis company, combining craft values with scaled production and disciplined execution, is pleased to report its second quarter 2025 financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025. All financial information is provided in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. Summary and Pro Forma Metrics (Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024) (US $ in millions) – Pro Forma figures are non-IFRS measures. * Includes revenue from New Jersey (ABCO) which is not included in Grown Rogue Consolidated results ¹ Non-IFRS financial measure. See MD&A for further details and reconciliations Market Performance by State (Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024) (US $ in millions) ¹ Non-IFRS financial measure.

We want to be clear to investors about our perspective on this: we believe price normalization is a natural and healthy part of any market — especially in cannabis, where lower prices pull more consumers into safer regulated products. We also firmly believe Oregon and Michigan are not outliers but rather harbingers of what every market in the nation will eventually experience to similar degrees, albeit on different timelines. Even as pricing has come down, our teams continue to deliver profitability and attractive returns on capital. We recognize that pricing will be cyclical and that we do not control the overall market price. Instead, we focus on what we can control — executing at the highest levels possible to continue to elevate our craft. This means remaining a constantly improving team, particularly when it comes to driving cost efficiencies and enhancing flower quality. From my lens, our team has executed on these priorities exceptionally well. We are applying everything we have learned in Oregon and Michigan in New Jersey, and we are excited to continue to apply these learnings to the other growth engines in our business. We are underway with construction of Phase 1 of our affiliate Illinois cultivation facility, and we are evaluating Minnesota as our next potential organic, new build market. With our administrative support, our National Director of Cultivation was awarded pre-approval for a Minnesota cultivation license, and we are currently evaluating real estate options. Minnesota has the key attributes that align with our organic growth model, most notably, a limited supply of craft-quality indoor flower. We're excited about the potential to bring Grown Rogue's flower-forward approach to customers in a state we came to know well during our advisory agreement with Vireo. While expanding into new markets, we've also made intentional investments in corporate overhead and team capabilities. We're bringing in the right talent and systems to ensure that as we grow, we preserve the operational discipline and culture that set Grown Rogue apart. These investments may put short-term pressure on margins, but they position us to capitalize on the opportunities we see emerging across the industry — including several distressed opportunities currently under evaluation. We are also monitoring recent federal discussions on potential rescheduling. We support measures that advance legalization, decriminalization, and reduce regulatory complexity. From a business standpoint, we'd welcome any changes that ease the regulatory burden of operating in the cannabis industry, although we do not expect any of the potential near-term decisions being discussed to materially impact our operations or growth strategy." "A confluence of factors, most notably increased competition, limited access to incremental capital and substantial debt and lease burdens, has created a window of significant financial and operational distress across the industry, with overbuilt and expensive cultivation infrastructure often at the center. We view this period of industry distress as a real opportunity — our flower-forward model is built to thrive in competitive, price-sensitive markets. By staying low-cost, high-quality, and disciplined, we're positioned to capture share where others are struggling, and we plan to lean into these opportunities. One of the reasons I joined the Grown Rogue team was my personal experience navigating complex and immature state-level supply chains and recognizing that the efficient production of quality flower is the economic engine of the industry — amplifying profits across the supply chain during periods of high pricing and providing resilience when markets grow more competitive. Distressed and restructuring transactions tend to be slow and complex, so it's hard to predict exact timing or the scale of what we might accomplish — but we'll be disappointed if this isn't a meaningful contributor to our growth over the next 18–24 months. Looking ahead, we remain laser-focused on executing our core organic growth strategy — expanding in New Jersey, advancing in Illinois, and positioning ourselves to enter Minnesota if the opportunity aligns. At the same time, we're prepared to leverage our operational expertise into distressed opportunities. I'm confident in the strong foundation we're building to support our future growth." Management Commentary from CFO, Andrew Marchington "Financially, we remain in a strong and flexible position – our core operations in Oregon and Michigan continue to generate healthy cash flow, and New Jersey is already contributing meaningfully while still early in its scale-up. As a reminder, because our New Jersey operations are through an affiliate, their results aren't consolidated in our IFRS financials. Instead, we provide Pro Forma Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures – to give investors a better view of our total economic interest. We've included a reconciliation to reported IFRS results below for clarity." Reconciliation of Reported to Pro Forma Results (US$ in millions) Pro Forma revenue and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS financial measures that include the results of the Company's New Jersey affiliate, ABCO Garden State LLC ("ABCO"), which are not consolidated in the Company's IFRS financial statements. Management believes these measures provide investors with additional insight into the Company's economic interest in all operating assets.

The Company defines "EBITDA" as the Company's net income or loss for a period, as reported, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and is further adjusted to remove transaction costs, stock-based compensation expense, accretion expense, gain (loss) on change in fair value of derivative liabilities, the effects of fair-value accounting for biological assets and inventory, as well as other non-cash items and items not representative of operational performance as reported in net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for the impact of various significant or unusual transactions. The Company believes that this is a useful metric to evaluate its operating performance. The Company defined "Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA" as the combined Adjusted EBITDA of the Company plus the Adjusted EBITDA of New Jersey (ABCO), with any intercompany transactions eliminated. "Pro forma Revenue" is a non-IFRS measure used by management that does not have any prescribed meaning by IFRS and that may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company defines "Pro forma Revenue" as combined revenue of the Company plus revenue of New Jersey (ABCO), an affiliate which is accounted for as an equity method investment, with any intercompany revenues eliminated. Non-IFRS Financial Measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Revenue are non-IFRS measures and do not have standardized definitions under IFRS. The Company has also provided unaudited pro-forma financial information, which assumes that operations which will be consolidated in the future are consolidated in the current reported periods. The Company has provided the non-IFRS financial measures, which are not calculated or presented in accordance with IFRS, as supplemental information and in addition to the financial measures that are calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. These supplemental non-IFRS financial measures are presented because management has evaluated the financial results both including and excluding the adjusted items and believe that the supplemental non-IFRS financial measures presented provide additional perspective and insights when analyzing the core operating performance of the business. These supplemental non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or as an alternative to, and should only be considered in conjunction with, the IFRS financial measures presented herein. Accordingly, the following information provides reconciliations of the supplemental non-IFRS financial measures, presented herein to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS.
