CALGARY, AB, May 31, 2025 /CNW/ - MEG Energy Corp.

We are working closely with the utility company and other stakeholders to restore grid connection and return to full capacity. "The safety of our people and protection of our assets remain our top priorities, and there is no immediate risk to either," said Darlene Gates, President and CEO.

New FCM report urges bold federal-municipal partnership to unlock Rural Canada's economic potential Français
OTTAWA, ON, May 31, 2025 /CNW/ - At a pivotal moment for Canada's economy and communities, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) has released The Future of Rural Canada —a bold roadmap to unlock the full potential of rural communities as essential partners in national prosperity. As global uncertainty reshapes economic priorities, rural leaders are ready to drive solutions that diversify trade, strengthen local infrastructure, and build a more resilient, inclusive economy for all Canadians. Rural Canada is a cornerstone of national prosperity—rich in resources, innovation, and untapped potential. With modern infrastructure, reliable connectivity, and updated fiscal tools, rural communities are ready to drive growth in critical sectors and expand Canada's global trade footprint. But unlocking this potential requires a renewed, results-driven partnership across all orders of government—because when rural communities thrive, the entire country moves forward. "FCM is proud to present its vision of Canada's future, and how this can achieve safer and more resilient communities with all orders of government working hand in hand," said Neal Comeau, Chair of FCM's Rural Forum. "This report contains the missing key to unlock long-term prosperity, thanks to the work of dedicated municipal elected officials across the country." As the federal government begins a new mandate, the report highlights key challenges— such as public safety, aging infrastructure, and major gaps in digital connectivity—and offers practical solutions to help rural communities thrive. Key recommendations include: Expanding broadband and cellular service to meet the needs of the 21 st Century rural economy. Strengthening partnerships with rural municipalities is key to ensuring federal infrastructure programs reflect rural realities—unlocking economic potential and improving access to markets across the country. Elevating rural policing and reforming the bail system through intergovernmental collaboration is essential to ensuring safer, more resilient communities across Canada. Grow rural housing supply by empowering municipalities through a renewed federal-municipal partnership that aligns tools and infrastructure to deliver results. Advance climate resilience by partnering with rural municipalities to strengthen infrastructure, protect communities, and support long-term sustainability. Recognizing all communities, including rural and urban areas, as essential partners in delivering national priorities, alongside provincial and territorial governments. This is the first national rural report of its kind in seven years — grounded in the voices of rural leaders from coast to coast to coast. It calls on the federal government to work with rural municipalities through a National Prosperity Partnership to unlock rural economic potential, fully connect communities with reliable internet and cellular service, and ensure safety and strength in every corner of the country. As Canada modernizes how municipalities are funded, rural realities must be front and centre. A renewed fiscal framework must deliver equitable support for all communities—because rural Canada is not just part of the solution, it's essential to building a stronger, more resilient future for everyone. The Federation of Canadian Municipalities is the national voice of municipal governments, with more than 2,000 members representing more than 92 percent of the Canadian population.

Fall of Mongolian coalition government could lead to severe economic downturn
Mongolia faces a crunch parliamentary vote on Monday which could lead to fall of coalition government New analysis from Mongolian Economic Development Board indicates this could lead to a sharp fall in national income and foreign direct investment (FDI), as well as spiralling inflation Political instability will jeopardise economic progress achieved in the last few years ULAANBAATAR, Mongolia, May 31, 2025 /CNW/ -- As Mongolia's parliament prepares to vote on Monday on whether the country's coalition government should remain in office, new economic analysis warns that the demise of the government could see the size of Mongolia's economy contract by over 20% within six months, and FDI fall by almost 40% year-on-year. Prime Minister Oyun-Erdene called on Wednesday for members of the Great State Khural to decide on whether the coalition government, which has been in place since last June's parliamentary elections, should remain as a way of ending recent political instability. The Prime Minister is due to address the Khural on Monday ahead of a 'confidence vote' – likely to be deemed one of the most important moments in Mongolia's political history since becoming a democracy in the early 1990s. As the vote approaches, new economic data – which can be viewed in full here – produced by Mongolia's Economic Development Board warns of the scale of the economic hit Mongolia could face, namely: A 22% reduction in Gross National Income within six months A 12.2% increase in inflation within a year Year-on-year unemployment rising to 2.5% The Mongolian Tugrik depreciating against the US Dollar by 17.9% by the end of 2025 An 18-point year-on-year decrease in Mongolia's Political Stability Index These forecasts are in line with the experiences of other countries where political instability has had a negative impact on the economy, including following the fall of a coalition government: According to data from the World Bank and other key sources, the coalition breakdown in Estonia caused FDI to tumble from 7.54% in 2021, to 0.74% in 2024, and its economic growth to stall from 7.3% in 2021, to -0.9% in 2024 An international study analysing data from up to 169 countries between 1960 and 2004 has concluded that high levels of political instability are associated with lower GDP per capita growth, particularly due to declining productivity growth and reduced accumulation of physical and human capital Commenting, Dr Batnasan B., Professor at the Business School of the National University of Mongolia and Member of the Economic Development Board, said: " The latest data clearly highlights the potential economic consequences of a collapse in Mongolia's coalition government: a sharp economic downturn, runaway inflation, and a rise in unemployment. "It is entirely appropriate that elected representatives decide who governs the country. But it is equally important that such decisions are made with full access to the facts and a clear understanding of the potential risks. "The Economic Development Board's analysis—combined with lessons from other countries that have faced similar circumstances—presents a compelling warning: all the hard-won economic progress Mongolia has achieved in recent years could be jeopardized if Monday's vote results in increased political instability." This new analysis, as well as precedent from around the world, clearly shows the magnitude of the decision to be taken by lawmakers on Monday, and the jeopardy to the significant economic progress Mongolia has made since the COVID-19 pandemic, including adding $9 billion USD to its economy and increasing GDP per capita by an additional $2,400.
