Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 10:28:16 GMT

Politicians are set to return to Queen’s Park on Monday after a chaotic 15-week summer break that saw two cabinet ministers’ resign, a cabinet shuffle, and a major policy reversal. There was also the release of two damning reports from the auditor general and integrity commissioner about the process to remove lands from the Greenbelt for housing development.The return of the legislature will see Premier Doug Ford set about backtracking on a decision to remove 7,400 acres of land from the Greenbelt to build 50,000 homes following almost a year of public outcry. The surprise announcement came following a caucus retreat in Niagara Falls, Ont., where party members shared with Ford what they have been hearing about the Greenbelt from people in their communities. The RCMP is reviewing information to determine whether it should investigate the Greenbelt land swap. Ford has said he is confident nothing criminal took place.A review of the Greenbelt announced earlier this month wi...

Archaeologists unearth the largest cemetery ever discovered in Gaza and find rare lead sarcophogi

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 10:28:16 GMT

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Palestinian workers in the Gaza Strip have found dozens of ancient graves, including two sarcophagi made of lead, in a Roman-era cemetery — a site dating back some 2,000 years that archaeologists describe as the largest cemetery to be discovered in Gaza. Workers came upon the site l ast year during the construction of an Egyptian-funded housing project near Jabaliya, in the northern Gaza Strip. Since then, crews have worked to excavate the 2,700-square-meter (2/3 acre) site with the support of French experts.Now, what was once an inconspicuous construction lot — surrounded by a grove of nondescript apartment buildings — has become a gold mine for archeologists looking to understand more about the Gaza Strip. Gaza, a coastal enclave home to some 2.3 million people, has a rich history stemming from its location on ancient trade routes between Egypt and the Levant. But a number of factors — Israeli occupation, Hamas’ 16-year takeover of the territory and ra...
