It’s frustrating for Rosie Harris to go to the two stores in Nain and be unable to buy essential items like toilet paper, baby wipes, cleaning supplies, ketchup, or rice, due to the Kamutik W ferry being unable to deliver to the Inuit community on Labrador’s north coast. Harris has four young children at home who are picky eaters, and without staple foods they eat, the mother has had a hard time cooking enough food they enjoy.

Steak dinners, crab cakes and love for Toronto: We asked NBA draft prospects if they worked out for the Raptors

3 days ago | wellandtribune.ca | Libaan Osman

BROOKLYN, N.Y.—The Toronto Raptors are known as an organization that keeps its cards close to its chest, making it difficult to pinpoint which top NBA prospects were invited for pre-draft workouts over the last few weeks. The private meetings are a good indication of which players the team is interested in drafting. It’s anyone’s guess as to who they might take ninth overall at Wednesday’s draft in Brooklyn, N.Y. — or if they’ll end up picking in the top 10 at all.

6 days ago | wellandtribune.ca | Bill Sawchuk

Sometimes, the wheels of justice turn slowly. It took Niagara Regional Police nearly three months to painstakingly collect the evidence that brought Richard Moore, 38, of Niagara Falls, to justice in a St. Catharines courtroom Friday in the hit-and-run death of 84-year-old cyclist Nestor Chemerika. Then Moore needed two tries six months apart before the court could accept his guilty plea for failing to stop at a fatal accident.
‘If you can’t sell them, why would you build them’: Niagara housing starts fall 23 per cent to start 2025

1 week ago | wellandtribune.ca | Victoria Nicolaou

The sound of buzz of saws and hammers have noticeably faded across Niagara this year, as housing construction cooled to its lowest pace in a decade. But it’s not just sluggish sales keeping shovels out of the ground as newly built homes sit on the market — experts point to a mix of elevated supply, rising costs, tariffs and economic uncertainties fuelling the downturn, with builders choosing to hit pause rather than risk unsold inventory.
