For the first time in over 30 years, Newfoundland and Labrador’s Northern cod stock has been deemed “healthy” by Ottawa. In June, Fisheries and Oceans Canada upgraded the cod stock’s status from “critical” to “healthy” and simultaneously increased the commercial quota for cod by 55 percent, to 59,000 tonnes a year. Newfoundlanders say the move has left them hopeful, but also trepidatious after the devastating experience of a 32-year moratorium. “This is the most hope we’ve had in Newfoundland for the cod fishery in years,” said Alberto Wareham, owner of Icewater Seafoods, a fish processing plant 150-kilometres west of St. John’s. “[But] nobody wants to repeat what happened in 1992.”

Lawmakers and the governor on Monday failed to extend a state grant program that helped schools upgrade their air conditioner systems, a decision that will allow utilities that funded the program to claw back funds for their ratepayers. The California Schools Healthy Air, Plumbing, and Efficiency program — CalSHAPE for short — set aside nearly $1 billion in utility funds to help schools assess and upgrade aging HVAC and plumbing systems. But the California Energy Commission abruptly closed applications in 2024, leaving $191 million unused — money that must now be returned to utilities by law. After last-minute negotiations, lawmakers passed a budget trailer bill giving schools that had already received funding an additional three years to finish projects before the state claws back the money. But they dropped a separate measure that would have re-opened applications for schools to make upgrades because it did not have support from Gov. Gavin Newsom, according to sources familiar with the negotiations. “I don’t understand why (Newsom) doesn’t have the backs of everyday people in California, and why he doesn’t think that children deserve a safe place to learn with air conditioning,” said Leah Stokes, a political science associate professor at UC Santa Barbara who has advocated for the program. “This is all on him.”
