15 h. ago Canada sees biggest shift in population in over five decades

Canada is seeing its population shrink following a steep decline in the number of international students and foreign workers.According to Statistics Canada, the population fell by 0.2 per cent in the third quarter of 2025 between July 1 and Oct. 1, bringing it to a total of 41,575,585 as of Oct. 1. With its low birth rate, Canada has been experiencing a low level of natural increase, only adding 17,600 more people during those three months. The agency attributes this population decline largely to fewer temporary residents.Canada has introduced several policies aimed at reducing the number of non-permanent residents, and their impact has become increasingly evident this year. The largest decline occurred in the third quarter with a drop of 176,47, followed by the second quarter (down 58,719) and the first quarter (down 55,194). According to StatsCan, the third quarter decline was the largest drop since records began 54 years ago in 1971.As of Oct. 1, temporary residents made up 6.8 p...

16 h. ago Toronto Raptors reportedly interested in trade for LaMelo Ball

Is there a world where we could possibly see LaMelo Ball playing in a Toronto Raptors uniform?Though that situation may never come to fruition, the Raptors reportedly expressed trade interest in the supposedly disgruntled Charlotte Hornets point guard this past offseason. The 24-year-old, who has struggled to stay healthy early in his NBA career, was an All-Star back in 2022."Speaking of trade interest, the Toronto Raptors checked in on the availability of Ball over the summer," NBA insider Michael Scotta of HoopsHype wrote.Ball, who is currently out with an ankle injury he sustained against the Raptors earlier this month, is averaging 19.4 points through 16 games this season. The 2024-25 campaign, in which he was limited to 47 games, saw him average a career-high 25.2 points.Though his point totals have dropped slightly this season, he's currently averaging what would stand as a career-high 8.5 assists.Ball, drafted third overall in 2020, has an extremely high skill s...

Shortly after being demoted to a bullpen role, he was placed on the injured list due to, as he put it, a variety of ailments."I've been battling all year long with my elbow, my bicep, but with the way my team was competing out there, I was trying to trying to [stay] out there," Berrios said in an appearance on MLB Network. Berrios has taken plenty of heat for his distance from the team during their historic run to the World Series this past fall.
