"For years they've turned a blind eye to all the lucrative moonlighting SAS troops get up to on their downtime. "Finally, it would appear this complacency has slapped them in the face.

A Vancouver woman who is eight months pregnant says her landlord is threatening to raise the rent once her child has been born. Joy Maynard and Antoine Moore are expecting their first child any day and have been living in their Vancouver basement suite since April 2021. They told their landlord earlier in the summer about the pregnancy and Maynard said he informed them that his son is the owner of the house so they need to be talking to his son about these matters. That’s when they said they were informed that any additional occupant would cost them $600 a month. “We also told them that my mom is coming to visit. The son said that my mom is going to be considered an occupant,” Maynard said. “So any rules that they have pertaining to occupants applies to my mom and as well to the baby. So there was a set amount in our release that spoke about new occupants and it was $600 per person. We were hoping $600 for a baby would have seemed ridiculous to everybody, but they were like, ‘No, this is what it says in your lease. It’ll be that for the baby regardless. So there would be a stiff increase in your rent’.” B.C.'s Housing Minister, Ravi Kahlon, told Global News Monday that this couple's landlord should "give himself a head shake" but he is in a legal position to do this.

The Biden administration on Tuesday indicated to congressional lawmakers that it would be willing to support a new border authority to expel migrants without asylum screenings, as well as a dramatic expansion of immigration detention and deportations, to convince Republicans to back aid to Ukraine, four people familiar with the matter told CBS News. The White House informed Senate Democrats that it could back those sweeping and hardline immigration policy changes as part of the negotiations over President Biden's emergency funding request, a roughly $100 billion package that includes military aid to Israel, Taiwan and Ukraine, as well as money to bolster border enforcement and hire additional immigration officials.

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak faced revolt from some of his own lawmakers in a parliamentary vote on his flagship migration policy of sending asylum seekers to Rwanda on Tuesday after they said they could not back an emergency bill to revive his scheme. Last month, the UK Supreme Court ruled the policy of deporting those arriving illegally in small boats on England's southern coast to the East African nation would breach British and international human rights laws and agreements. In response, Sunak has agreed a new treaty with Rwanda and brought forward emergency legislation designed to override legal obstacles that would stop deportations. But the move has deeply divided his Conservative Party, alienating both moderates, who are worried about Britain breaching its human rights obligations, and those on the right wing who contend it does not go far enough. Defeat in Tuesday's vote could put his premiership in jeopardy.

Three years after Fortnite-maker Epic Games sued Apple and Google for allegedly running illegal app store monopolies, Epic has a win. The jury in Epic v. Google has just delivered its verdict — and it found that Google turned its Google Play app store and Google Play Billing service into an illegal monopoly. After just a few hours of deliberation, the jury unanimously answered yes to every question put before them — that Google has monopoly power in the Android app distribution markets and in-app billing services markets, that Google did anticompetitive things in those markets, and that Epic was injured by that behavior. They decided Google has an illegal tie between its Google Play app store and its Google Play Billing payment services, too, and that its distribution agreement, Project Hug deals with game developers and deals with OEMs were all anticompetitive.

For nearly seven decades, the United Steelworkers Hall Local 1190 on South Third Street in Steubenville, Ohio, was more than just a place to file grievances and vote on contracts. The two-story brick building was central to the communal life of generations of steelworkers and their families. It was where they held wedding receptions; where their kids got Christmas gift bags; and where, sometimes, families first learned that their husband or son was not coming home from the mill. The union hall was also one of the only public venues in town where second- and third-generation immigrants, as well as black steelworkers, could mingle as part of one union family. Today, it stands—like many former businesses, homes, and churches in Steubenville—empty. The union hall is a victim of both the collapse of America’s steel industry and the decimation of organized labor. Steubenville, which lies on the Ohio River bordering West Virginia, is the prototypical Rust Belt town. So much so that it was one of the locations for the 1978 film The Deerhunter, which follows a group of steelworker friends serving in the Vietnam War. At one point, Steubenville was home to some 30,000 steelworkers and an equally strong labor movement. But that was decades ago. With the local manufacturing economy destroyed, the steelworker hall is largely an artifact of the past, just another empty building on another empty block.
