Thirteen community organizations in Montreal's Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough had until 5 p.m. Friday to vacate their long-time home, but they refuse to pack up. Instead, they're fighting the eviction, which was ordered by the building's owner, the (CSSDM). The school service centre has been renting the space to the organizations for about 20 years, but now plans to use the property for a French-language learning centre Among the groups being evicted is (SNAC), which offered food assistance to 1,970 households over the last year, feeding nearly 4,000 people from their location in the C on Laverdure Street There is also an organization that supports people dealing with addiction, homelessness and mental health issues. There's a daycare and , a youth advocacy group, as well. There's even a francisation centre already on site, offering French-language classes. There are services for seniors, a meals-on-wheels program and educational services, too, said Rémy Robitaille, head of , the council representing the groups getting evicted "We won't move from here, even if they told us to move at 5 p.m. tonight," he said, noting the community groups are challenging the eviction in court. The organizations say they have nowhere to relocate after months of struggling to find something affordable. Rémy Robitalle, head of Solidarité Ahuntsic, said the eviction saga has dragged on since 2022, beginning with a 200 per cent rent increase. (Gabriel Guindi/CBC) The landlord, the CSSDM, said in a statement Friday that it is facing a sustained increase in educational needs in the Ahuntsic-Cartierville sector, particularly for francisation programs offered in adult education. At the same time, the , which houses the CSSDM's current francisation centre, is being renovated and the the programming there needs to be relocated to the , the statement said "To fulfil our primary mission of providing education and to avoid a service disruption in the absence of any other facility capable of accommodating all our students, we are compelled to reclaim full possession of the building," it said. Given Solidarité Ahuntsic's repeated refusals, since 2018, to sign a lease with the CSSDM, the organizations are currently occupying the premises under a month-to-month tolerance lease, the statement added. The eviction is a lawful step, the CSSDM said, and legal proceedings are ongoing. The council has refused rent increases for six years while the school service centre continues to pay electricity, heat and maintenance, it said. Several politicians have condemned the decision to force the groups out, including MNA Haroun Bouazzi, who represents the Maurice-Richard riding, which includes parts of Ahuntsic-Cartierville and Montréal-Nord. Bouazzi has called the eviction a disaster for the neighbourhood's social and community safety net, noting that 25,000 people rely on the organizations' services each year. Bouazzi is urging the (CAQ) government to intervene and grant a reprieve. He has been lobbying for the government to delay the eviction since the spring. Along with a petition, he submitted a detailed demand to the government, explaining the urgency of the situation, but said the only response he got was one deferring responsibility to the CSSDM. The CSSDM argues the eviction is necessary to provide French courses, but Bouazzi points out that French-language programming is already available there. Efforts to delay the eviction for three years have been supported by Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough mayor Émilie Thuillier and federal MP Mélanie Joly, who represents the riding of Ahuntsic-Cartierville. The three-year reprieve would allow the organizations to relocate to a new facility in the Écoquartier Louvain, a social development planned for the borough but for which construction has not begun. The development, which will include 800 to 1,000 housing units, is expected to accommodate co-operatives and a shared space for community groups as well. "All the community organizations will have a place together in the new centre, but we need time to build it," Thuillier said. In the meantime, officials are urging the Quebec government to give the CSSDM more funds so it can find more suitable premises for the francisation centre it wants to create. Bouazzi said the building is very old and that, before it can be used as a learning centre, it would need extensive renovations that would take four years — longer than the community groups need to relocate. The Centre communautaire d'Ahuntsic houses 13 community organizations, all of which are facing eviction. (Julie Marceau/Radio-Canada) "I have a hard time thinking that this government will destroy the social mesh we have here," he said. "I am sure that what they want is noble and positive, but now that we understand the consequences, we have to stop this madness." Robitaille noted that the groups' trouble with their landlord began in 2022, when the CSSDM increased their rent by 200 per cent. The organizations attempted to refuse the rent increase, but the CSSDM threatened to sell the building. When the organizations offered to buy it, the service centre instead opted to retake it for educational purposes. Robitaille said it's not clear to him why the CSSDM wants to evict the organizations so soon. "It's strange they want to remove the francisation courses that we already give to around 400 people a year," he said, noting the renovations to get the building up to code will be costly, but the government has been cutting back on subsidies for . The Ministry of Education issued a statement Friday afternoon, saying the CSSDM owns the building and is responsible for its use, including surplus properties. "If the CSSDM needs the space for students, the educational mission must always take priority," the ministry said.Trump asks court to pause law that could ban TikTokDonald Trump has urged the US Supreme Court to pause a federal TikTok law that would ban the popular social media app or force its sale, with the Republican US President-elect arguing that he should have time after taking office to pursue a "political resolution" to the issue. or signup to continue reading TikTok and its owner ByteDance are fighting to keep the popular app online in the United States after Congress voted in April to ban it unless the app's Chinese parent company sells it by January 19. They have sought to have the law struck down, and the Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case. But if the court does not rule in ByteDance's favour and no divestment occurs, the app could be effectively banned in the United States on January 19, one day before Trump takes office. "This case presents an unprecedented, novel, and difficult tension between free-speech rights on one side, and foreign policy and national security concerns on the other," Trump said in a filing on Friday. "Such a stay would vitally grant President Trump the opportunity to pursue a political resolution that could obviate the Court's need to decide these constitutionally significant questions," the filing added. Free speech advocates separately told the Supreme Court on Friday that the US law against Chinese-owned TikTok evokes the censorship regimes put in place by the United States' authoritarian enemies. Trump indicated earlier this week that he favoured allowing TikTok to keep operating in the United States for at least a little while, saying he had received billions of views on the social media platform during his presidential campaign. The US Justice Department has argued that Chinese control of TikTok poses a continuing threat to national security, a position supported by most US lawmakers. TikTok says the Justice Department has misstated the social media app's ties to China, arguing that its content recommendation engine and user data are stored in the United States on cloud servers operated by Oracle Corp. The company added that content moderation decisions that affect US users are made in the United States. Advertisement Sign up for our newsletter to stay up to date.

PARKER — Magic may have touched Fairview football’s Class 5A quarterfinal game at EchoPark Stadium during last week’s stunner over No. 2 Mountain Vista, but on Saturday afternoon in the same location, it was the No. 7 Knights who were spellbound. Sixth-seeded Legend just proved too much to handle in the 35-21 finish, especially during the third quarter. The Knights played the Titans toe-to-toe, save for that 12-minute blip to start the second half. And with it, their 12-1 season came to a grinding halt as the Titans now move on to play No. 1 Cherry Creek in the title game next week. Prior to the start of this season, the Knights hadn’t won a playoff game since 2019. They made up for it by winning three. “We’ve had really good seasons the last few years, and so there was a hunger,” head coach Tom McCartney said. “The guys just didn’t want to be denied. They wanted to win their home playoff game. They wanted to show that they could beat one of the elite teams, so that kind of hunger and that kind of belief in each other carried us.” The Knights’ stars shined even in defeat, as they had through every victory leading up to the finale. Sophomore quarterback Ki Ellison put together a strong performance with 231 passing yards and touchdown passes to junior defensive back Toray Davis, who finished his afternoon with 49 offensive yards, and senior wide receiver Jordan Rechel. Rechel added another 123 yards. The score from Rechel down the stretch handed him his 29th touchdown of the season. He entered the contest tied for No. 1 in the state in that category. “Obviously with Jordan, the guy’s been a four-year starter,” McCartney said. “He led the state with touchdowns last year. He’s now leading the state again this year as a senior. He just finds ways to get in the end zone. He never comes off the field. He’s had a special four years and he’s going to be hard to replace, meaning you can’t replace someone like him. He’s a once-in-a-generation type player. He’s phenomenal.” Davis, he said, has an equally bright future ahead of him as he’s fielding Division-I offers left and right. He showcased why from the first snap. Davis kicked the game off with a 15-yard reception from Ellison in the corner of the end zone, but the Titans were quick to respond every time the Knights passed the pylon in the first half. Legend’s Ryken Banks put together his own receiving touchdown, this time on a monster 48-yard gain, just two minutes after the Knights first altered the scoreboard.

(Alissa Noe/BoCoPreps.com) Davis turned his opening score into a heroic effort on defense to save the Knights from their first big error of the game. Legend’s Aaron Carlson, having picked off Ellison’s short pass, sprinted 75 yards back toward the end zone. But just before he touched the line, Davis knocked the ball out of his hands, then recovered it in the end zone himself. “I looked back and I just saw he had the ball,” Davis said. “I knew I was the only one that would be able to catch him. I just had to hawk him down and punch the ball out.” Brock Kolstad pushed the Knights back into the lead with a short run into the end zone four minutes into the second quarter, but as the popular saying goes, “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” That’s exactly what Legend did. Derek Neuenschwander made Ellison pay for his second mistake midway through the second, taking the interception a short distance back to score and draw the two teams at 14-14 going into the half. The Titans secured that disadvantage with a major defensive stop within the 5-yard line in the closing seconds of the first half, then flipped the script in the third quarter. Legend turned up the physicality coming out of the break, and punished the Knights for every missed tackle en route to a 28-14 lead heading into the final quarter. Ellison and Rechel helped stop the bleeding with a 35-yard connection in the final eight minutes, but the Knights couldn’t stop the Titans from touching the scoreboard one more time. Fairview’s season ended just one stop short of its first title game appearance since 2013, but this band of Knights achieved a feat that hadn’t been done in five years. Rechel, who said he’ll make his college decision in the next few months, wouldn’t trade the experience. “This team is very special,” he said. “I’ve never been a part of a team like this team. Things didn’t end the way that we wanted to, but just to be able to come out here and be on this field with this team, there’s just no other feeling compared to it. It’s just the brotherhood and the camaraderie and just everyone having each other’s backs. We never gave up to the very last whistle.” View a list of Prep sports and high school teams we cover.Hugh Grant ‘s career has entered what the actor himself coined the “freak show stage” of his career. From the oh-so-tiny Oompa Loompa in Wonka to the short-lived Edward Keplinger in The Regime , the seasoned British actor has departed from his romantic lead typecast. For his most recent leading role as Mr. Reed in Heretic , Grant traps two young Mormon missionaries in his basement game of faith and horror. Green-haired, dancing orange man aside, Mr. Reed is his most extreme role to date. Playing a man who traps women in cages is as large a departure as he can take, especially when his origins are largely rooted as charming leads in romantic comedies. And not just any romantic leads. Grant has starred in some of the most iconic romantic comedies: Edward Farris in Ang Lee’s Sense and Sensibility , William Thacker in Richard Curtis ‘ Notting Hill , Charles in Four Weddings and a Funeral (the first of his three films with the famed romance director), David the Prime Minister in Curtis’ Love Actually . Essential to each of these roles, Grant’s charming smile and self-effacing mumble made him a heartthrob of the ’90s and ’00s. But a heartthrob is not exempt from their red flags. Like a wolf in a beloved Englishman’s clothing, Grant’s characters have always been more villainous than they appear. The actor’s breakthrough role as Charles in Four Weddings and a Funeral marked him as good-looking and disarmingly likable. Charles flipped a leading man’s role on his head, appearing as non-threatening and passive, his true motives often taking a backseat to politeness. However, for the friend who forgets rings, arrives late, pursues a woman in a relationship, and abandons his fiancée at the altar, suave and shy are not necessarily the first words that come to mind. Perhaps his most cardinal sin of all was committed in Notting Hill . How did he allow Julia Roberts walk out the door to be ambushed by the paparazzi?! Without her pants?! On multiple occasions, when given the opportunity to profess his feelings to his own heartthrob Anna (played by the real-life movie star Roberts), William chose silence and inaction. He even rejected Anna’s own proposal to pursue the relationship legitimately after he had spent an entire year forlorn about what could have been. Never establishing a backbone to communicate properly with the women he truly loves has perhaps been a throughline of Grant’s romantic career. Even his casting as Edward Farris in the 1995 Sense and Sensibility fits the bill, the price of his inactions and omissions being paid by the woman who loved him most. His most meaningful encounter in the film, in my opinion, came far too late. In the final act, Elinor Dashwood ( Emma Thompson ) realized that Farris had been engaged to and then married a woman of higher society. This was the engagement that Farris had failed to mention during the entirety of their courtship. The man was shelling out his monogrammed kerchiefs left and right. Unforgivable! Lastly, Curtis’ 2003 holiday rom-com Love Actually follows the love stories of 10 different individuals and those in their lives. “Love” is used liberally as Grant is one of the many male characters engaging in inappropriate romantic relationships with his own employees. Grant plays David, the Prime Minister, who initially resists the urge to act on his attraction to a junior member of staff, Natalie ( Martine McCutcheon ). While he presents himself as a moral politician, looking down on the U.S. President ( Billy Bob Thornton ) for making his own advances on Natalie, David acts on his attraction in the end nonetheless. While the pair ends up in a public, seemingly unproblematic relationship (for now) by the end of the film, we can’t overlook their checkered origins. Looking back, Grant has actually always played the villain. We just weren’t looking hard enough. More Headlines:
US budget airlines are struggling. Will pursuing premium passengers solve their problems?COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A fight broke out at midfield after Michigan stunned No. 2 Ohio State 13-10 on Saturday as Wolverines players attempted to plant their flag and were met by Buckeyes who confronted them. Police had to use pepper spray to break up the players, who threw punches and shoves in the melee that overshadowed the rivalry game. Ohio State police said in a statement “multiple officers representing Ohio and Michigan deployed pepper spray.” Ohio State police will investigate the fight, according to the statement. After the Ohio State players confronted their bitter rivals at midfield, defensive end Jack Sawyer grabbed the top of the Wolverines' flag and ripped it off the pole as the brawl moved toward the Michigan bench. Eventually, police officers rushed into the ugly scene. Ohio State coach Ryan Day said he understood the actions of his players. “There are some prideful guys on our team who weren't going to sit back and let that happen,” Day said. The two Ohio State players made available after the game brushed off questions about it. Michigan running back Kalel Mullings, who rushed for 116 yards and a touchdown, didn't like how the Buckeyes players involved themselves in the Wolverines' postgame celebration. He called it “classless.” “For such a great game, you hate to see stuff like that after the game," he said in an on-field interview with Fox Sports. “It’s just bad for the sport, bad for college football. But at the end of the day, you know some people got to — they got to learn how to lose, man. ... We had 60 minutes, we had four quarters, to do all that fighting.” Michigan coach Sherrone Moore said everybody needs to do better. “So much emotions on both sides," he said. "Rivalry games get heated, especially this one. It’s the biggest one in the country, so we got to handle that better.” Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.

AP college football: https://apnews.com/hub/ap-top-25-college-football-poll and https://apnews.com/hub/college-footballIf “ rawdogging ” flights and “ gate lice ” bugging airline staff weren’t enough for bizarre travel trends this year, there’s a new type of passenger causing chaos in the airport – those playing “check-in chicken”. The latest category of flyer applies to travellers who wait to book a seat until check-ins are almost closed in the hope of scoring the best available seats. That’s the coveted extra legroom chairs and roomy exit row aisles in most cases. According to Chelsea Dickenson, The Cheap Holiday Expert, leaving it last minute to check in online for a Wizz Air or Ryanair flight is usually a foolproof way to secure extra legroom or a seat up front. She claims these airlines, which charge extra to pre-book seats, split up parties travelling together by placing them “in the bad seats”, leaving the best spots on the plane up for grabs. In a TikTok video, Chelsea says: “Essentially, what they do is they palm off the middle seats or the back of the plane in the hope that you will then pay to change your seat and if you sit tight and wait, you will see that the only ones left are extra legroom seats and the ones at the front of the plane.” However, the last-minute strategy is, of course, not without risk for those who jump on the TikTok trend. The boarding hack works best when “chickens” keep a beady eye on the check-in seating plan throughout the day, Chelsea adds. Chelsea warns travellers playing chicken with check-in not to leave it until the last minute as an overbooked flight could leave you without a seat. “Wizz Air and Ryanair both have a fairly high average load factor - around 94% - and so planes are often close to full,” wrote the travel blogger. The “check-in chicken” boarding hack follows a crackdown on “gate lice” by American Airlines . AA announced this month that it is expanding its new technology to control “ gate lice ” – keen passengers with an itch to line up at the gate before they are called to board a flight. More than 100 airports across the US will now use the boarding tech over the busy Thanksgiving and Christmas travel period after successful trials in Albuquerque, Washington and Tucson last month . The new software will not accept the boarding pass of passengers before their group number is called and will make an audible sound to alert gate agents that they have broken boarding protocol. A message will also be displayed on the screen for airline staff, who can then instruct cutting-in customers to stand aside until their group is called to board.

Nebraska will be trying to preserve its perfect in-state record when it hosts South Dakota on Wednesday night in a nonconference game in Lincoln, Neb. The Cornhuskers (4-1) are 3-0 at home and also won Friday at then-No. 14 Creighton, beating their in-state rivals on the road for the second straight time. But the last time they did that, in 2022, they followed that win with a 16-point loss at Indiana to open Big Ten Conference play. "Believe me, we've addressed a lot of things," Nebraska coach Fred Hoiberg said. "A lot of people are saying some really positive things. You've got to find a way to put that behind you. I've liked how our team has responded and come back to work after that great win at Creighton." Brice Williams leads the Cornhuskers with 18.2 points per game and was one of five players in double figures against Creighton. Juwan Gary topped the list with 16. South Dakota (6-2) comes to town off a 112-50 home win Monday night over Randall, the third non-Division I school it has beat. The Coyotes' last game against a D1 opponent was Friday at Southern Indiana, resulting in a 92-83 loss. This will be South Dakota's second nonconference game against a Big Ten opponent, after a 96-77 loss at Iowa on Nov. 12. In December, the Coyotes also visit Santa Clara, hovering near the top 100 in KenPom adjusted efficiency, before jumping into Big Sky play. "The schedule is very good and that should help us," third-year South Dakota coach Eric Peterson said before the season. "We have some good nonconference games that should help prepare us for the end of the season." Nebraska has held four of its opponents to 67 or fewer points, with Saint Mary's the only one to top that number in the Cornhuskers' lone loss. Opponents are shooting 38.1 percent this season. South Dakota shot below 40 percent in its two previous games before shooting 62 percent against Randall. Isaac Bruns, who scored 20 to lead South Dakota in the Randall game, paces the Coyotes with 12.9 points per game. --Field Level MediaUS homelessness up 18% as affordable housing remains out of reach for many peopleIndian-American Kash Patel's Rise From Public Defender To FBI Director
