The clock is ticking for fans of Canadian hardcore band F***ed Up.

The Polaris Music Prize-winning Toronto act announced Wednesday that it was giving fans a limited-time offer for a full album of new music.

“Who’s Got the Time & a Half?” was posted on their Bandcamp page around midday.

The Damian Abraham-fronted group says it was recorded in only 24 hours earlier this year.

They said fans have just 24 hours to snap it up for themselves before it vanishes.

The album is priced at US$5 on the website and arrives two days before the band releases “Another Day,” a previously scheduled studio album to coincide with a run of Canadian tour dates next month.

The album is available at the Bandcamp link: https://bit.ly/3ywUrDG

Former Saskatchewan Party legislature member sentenced to probation for assault

Published

 on

MOOSE JAW, Sask. – A former Saskatchewan Party legislature member has been sentenced to 12 months probation after pleading guilty to assault. 

Gregory Lawrence also faced a charge of assault by choking but it was dropped following the plea in court Wednesday in Moose Jaw, Sask.

A court document says Lawrence shoved and choked a woman during an argument in 2019.

As part of his probation, Lawrence is barred from contacting the victim and going within 50 metres of her home or workplace.

Lawrence resigned from the governing Saskatchewan Party caucus in January as police investigated complaints against him.

He represented the constituency of Moose Jaw Wakamow until October and did not seek re-election.

WSIB to give Ontario employers $2B in surplus funds

Published

 on

TORONTO – Ontario Premier Doug Ford says eligible businesses will be getting a share of $2 billion that the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board is returning due to a surplus.

This marks the second time the WSIB has given a surplus back to employers, having distributed $1.2 billion in 2022.

Businesses are eligible if they have not been convicted more than once under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act or the Occupational Health and Safety Act since 2020.

As well, the WSIB is cutting the average premium rate employers pay from $1.30 to $1.25 per $100 of insurable payroll.

A new WSIB Health and Safety Excellence program will also give $1,000 to employers that create a new health and safety action plan through the program.

Ford also announced that the province is removing a $150 fee for apprentices taking their first Certificate of Qualification exam, which he says will make it easier for people to start careers in the trades.
