11 MNAs were subject to a harassment complaint or report
Photo of the Red Room of the National Assembly in Quebec City, taken on Sept. 19, 2024. (The Canadian Press/Jacques Boissinot) No fewer than 11 members of the National Assembly (MNAs) out of 125 were the subject of a complaint or report related to harassment in 2024–2025. That's nine more than the previous year, according to the annual report on the prevention and management of incivility, conflict, and psychological or sexual harassment in the workplace at the National Assembly. Tabled Friday, the report states that 104 cases were handled over the past year, compared to 80 the year before. However, only one complaint was deemed admissible. The names of the complainants and the MNAs involved cannot be disclosed, as confidentiality is guaranteed under the harassment policy adopted by the National Assembly in 2023. Five formal complaints Only five formal complaints were ultimately filed—four for psychological harassment and one for a combination of reasons. Of those, one was deemed admissible, one was dismissed, one was withdrawn, and two are currently under review to determine if they are admissible, according to the report. The admissible complaint is currently under investigation. \ In addition to the 11 MNAs, six political staff members, five managers, and five National Assembly employees were also the subject of a complaint or report, for a total of 27 people. That's already more than triple the eight individuals implicated in 2023–2024. The report also reveals that among those who sought 'support, advice, or intervention' related to incivility, conflict, or harassment, 45 were women, and 32 were men, for a total of 77 people. Among those who filed a report or complaint, 12 were women, and seven were men, for a total of 19. Finally, among those named in complaints—meaning those identified by complainants as being responsible 'for a difficult interpersonal situation, harassment, or similar conduct'—14 were men and 13 were women, totalling 27 individuals. The National Assembly's policy includes processes to address 'difficult interpersonal situations,' as well as corrective and disciplinary measures. These measures can include 'limiting or banning access to the workplace and/or services,' verbal or written warnings or reprimands, 'suspension or demotion,' or 'termination of employment,' the report reads. 'The investigator or the commissioner for compliance (…) may recommend certain measures be imposed on the individual concerned,' it adds. 'These may include restorative, corrective, or disciplinary actions. It is then up to the appropriate authority to implement them.' This report by The Canadian Press was first published in French on June 6, 2025. By Patrice Bergeron

Dog poop isn't allowed in Sudbury roadside litter containers
City officials are reminding the public that they don't want to see dog waste left in litter bins around Greater Sudbury. The city of Greater Sudbury has approximately 230 roadside litter containers across the municipality and staff want to remind residents dog waste is not allowed in them. Nataly Whissell, Manager of Collection and Recycling says its not uncommon for the city to do a mail blitz to send out reminders of where the waste should go instead. 'They should be bringing it home. A couple of options there. Mixing it with your regular garbage. So we do have a maximum amount of 10% volume in your garbage can, residents can also participate in a dog waste digester support program. They can flush their the dog feces in the toilet. They can consider hiring a company to remove the pet waste. And, of course, there's always the option to deliver the extra pet waste directly to a landfill site,' she said. Whissell tells CTVNews there are several reasons why people are not allowed to dispose of pet waste in the containers. 'Often, times when there's too much dog waste in a bin, it'll cause it to be overloaded, it becomes overweight and then we can't collect from it. So we have to send extra resources out to collect. It also makes roadside litter containers pretty dirty and smelly for anybody in the surrounding area and certainly increases the likelihood that the waste collector and surrounding properties and surrounding vehicles could be sprayed with the disease causing bacteria found in dog poop,' she said. Michel Babin walks his dog along Bancroft Drive sometimes up to three times a day. Often finding dog poop bags and trash on the side of the road. 'I've been putting it into the garbage bins with the last one. It says waste…I didn't even know. I had no clue," he said. Hope McKinlay has a 3-year-old dog and says it doesn't make sense. 'There's a garbage bin for garbage. You want me to put my Gatorade bottles, my food waste, stuff like that but I can't put actual waste like 100% not if it's human. Maybe not, but dog waste is kind of the one thing that the reason is the garbage. So it's not just strewn along the trails where people walk, where they hike. I wouldn't want to step in that. I'd rather it be in the garbage,' she said. For more information on pet waste visit

B.C. government is going to be ‘biggest barrier' to new pipeline, says former B.C. premier
The federal government introduced legislation on Friday that it says will eliminate federal barriers to internal trade and speed up major national projects. Former B.C. premier Christy Clark tells Power & Politics that the two big challenges to getting a new pipeline through B.C. will be seeking Indigenous consensus and getting the agreement of the provincial government.
