  Canada's new climate plan explains the price we pay for procrastination Actions taken a decade ago would be bearing fruit now. We're running out of time. Addressing unnamed politicians who would say that the current moment — with the war in Ukraine stoking inflation and driving up gas prices — is a bad time for fighting climate change, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told his audience in Vancouver on Tuesday that "this is no time for excuses." "The question is not whether we keep going on climate action," Trudeau argued. "The question is how much more we can do, and how quickly." The climate plan Trudeau's government released on Tuesday is one proposal for how much and how fast Canada should move. His government will continue to face questions about whether it is moving as quickly as it could. But the new report also shows exactly how much bolder Canada's governments and industries must be if this country is to do its part to ensure a livab...

  As buyers shy away from Russian oil, security concerns are reshaping global economy Shortly after Canada and other Western democracies announced sanctions on Russia, the world heard a frightening warning about the impact they would have — not just on Russia, but on the global economy. The warning came from Russia's deputy prime minister, Alexander Novak, and its focus was the world price of oil. "It is absolutely clear that a rejection of Russian oil would lead to catastrophic consequences for the global market," Novak said in a televised statement. "The surge in prices would be unpredictable," he warned. "It would be $300 per barrel, if not more." As the North American price of oil fell back to about $100 this week, it was easy to scoff at the Russian official's alarmist warning. But while there are good reasons that oil prices above $300 US are not in the cards, the invasion of Ukraine has set in motion a series of events that will l...

The history of Bangladesh was full of sorrow because it lived under the influence of many nations before its independence. Bangladesh is one of those countries that get freedom two times one is upon the ideology of Muslims and the second one is due to political instability. The journey of Bangladesh’s independence is not a bed of roses. It is like a sharp Nail injected in the head by a hammer. Millions of people lost their lives for getting freedom from outsiders’ influence.  British raj remains over 80 years and the right of Muslims living there got neglected. At the time of independence on 14 th August 1947 millions of Bengali people took part in the war with the passion to get Martyrdom. Can we imagine living without a home and family? The condition of people in Bengal was the same as the whole sub-continent. At the time when Pakistan declared its independence, Bangladesh was part of it. Muslims living in India have to travel west of East Pakistan, in the shifting process, ...

  With the war in Ukraine causing a range of short and long term issues, with the global economy likely requiring years to recover, Cyprus should shift its focus to the West for investment, particularly when it comes to the real estate market, fintech company WiRE FS CEO Pavlos Loizou said on Monday. “In our view, the age-old strategy of occasionally focusing on specific markets outside of the European Union, with significant profit margins, is over,” Loizou said, stressing that property market professionals should have a more long-term view. Loizou explained that over the past three decades or so, the Cypriot real estate market focused on trying to attract business from the United Kingdom (2000-2008), Russia (2008-2012), China (2012-2017), and the Middle East (2016-2018) dubbing the approach opportunistic, rather than aiming for a more sustainable way to develop the sector. “As it should be in terms of politics, we believe that the time has come to act rationally and turn to...

 I am very thankful to God that he chooses me to become an angel of virtue for a minority person in our country. About a month ago I was traveling on a public bus suddenly a person with a sad face entered the bus. Looking at the situation of him the passenger sitting with that person asked about the cause behind his sadness. The person said that “ he was in an emergency to send money to his home ”. He was a stranger and don’t know much about the remittance companies available in this country. Also, he visited many shops in the market and they are charging much higher than his affordability. He was in the country due to a study tour and didn’t carry much money with him. I was sitting just behind his seat listening to all story. I feel that this person needs my help because I know about a remittance company which is available in both countries. I stood up and called him to sit at the vacant seat beside me.  By offering a juice I gave him support by saying “ stay relaxed beca...

  The action, in which  GERB leader Boyko Borissov , his personal PR while Prime Minister Sevdelina Arnaudova and former Finance Minister Vladislav Goranov were arrested on Thursday night, received various interpretations and it remains to be seen which one will prevail. This was commented on by analysts in the Darik program "The Week". There are several hypotheses about what happened around the arrest of GERB leader Boyko Borissov, said Prof. Ivaylo Dichev. "The simplest thing is that the Minister of Interior just did something stupid, unprepared action. The second hypothesis from GERB - that a PR campaign is being carried out to divert attention, God knows what, from prices, etc. The third hypothesis I see in social networks, is that there is some information from Laura Coveschi, that she will be involved in this investigation and that in fact she is being tested by the prosecutor's office to be hit afterwards and that there are some documents for her, "sa...
