OTTAWA – Cities are going to need federal and provincial financial support very soon if they are to house 25,000 refugees over the next few months, says the mayor of Canada’s capital city.
Ottawa can accommodate between 800 and 2,000 refugees, or 350 to 450 families, says Jim Watson.
But rental accommodation — likely at market rates — is going to be expensive, he said Thursday, and other levels of government will have to provide cash to pay for the housing as the refugees arrive, probably within the next two weeks.
“We’re going to need some financial resources because most of the refugees will, in fact, be going into private apartments, which are at market rent,” Watson said outside the British High Commission on Thursday after helping to launch the local Salvation Army’s Christmas charity drive.
Watson said he stressed the need for cash in speaking Wednesday with Ontario’s municipal affairs and housing minister, Ted McMeekin, and got a positive response…

Courier delivery model could speed up recreational access to marijuana: CEO
– canadianbusiness.com
TORONTO – The CEO of one of Canada’s licensed medical cannabis producers says a delivery-by-courier model would be a good first step as the new Liberal government looks to allow recreational access to the drug.
“I think there may be an interim opportunity for distribution to happen quickly, to show a milestone of achieving things, because milestones in politics seem to be important,” Bruce Linton, CEO and chairman of Canopy Growth Corp. (TSXV:CGC) said during the company’s second-quarter earnings call Thursday.
“If the feds wish to have limited recreational access by way of direct courier, and then evolve it into presentation into LCBOs or SAQs or wherever, that could be something that could happen, and certainly we are actively, actively advocating that kind of first step.”
Linton made his comments as Canopy Growth Corp. — a combined company formed by Tweed Marijuana Inc. and Bedrocan Cannabis Corp. — reported net income of $3.9 million, or five cents per share on a diluted basis, for the three months ended Sept…
