* "Canadian police Thursday disclosed the arrest of four South Americans near the U.S. border carrying automatic weapons and 9-millimeter pistols amid growing fears that the Medellin cocaine cartel will attempt to retaliate against a U.S.-backed crackdown on Colombian drug kingpins." "Their arsenal included an Uzi submachine gun, Soviet and Israeli assault rifles and a Japanese grenade that was deactivated. Maps of several Canadian locations and an unmarked map of Maine were found in the cars, [Delbert Pelletier] said in an interview." "A defector from a Colombian paramilitary unit working for the Medellin cartel testified before the subcommittee Wednesday, saying among other things that [Bush] and subcommittee members could be targeted by the Colombian drug outlaws." "The four, traveling in three cars, were arrested Wednesday by police from Edmundston, New Brunswick, and were found to be carrying Venezuelan passports, two of which were determined to be fake, according to Edmundston's deputy police chief, Delbert Pelletier." "Although a grenade, tear gas, zap guns and a machete were found in the vehicles along with more than 2,000 rounds of ammunition for the weapons, a highly placed U.S. law enforcement source said: "It's not our belief that this is any kind of hit squad.""<ref>{{cite news |last1=Ostrow |first1=Ronald J. |title=4 Canada Arrests Heighten Fears of Drug Retaliation |url=https://www.proquest.com/docview/280932570/F66C4B7FE05D4C76PQ/3 |access-date=July 21, 2024 |work=[[Los Angeles Times]] |date=September 15, 1989 |page=14}}</ref>

Driving in Canada

As of May 2023, 82.6 percent of people in Canada use private automobiles as their primary form of transportation to their workplace.[1] Canada recorded nearly 26 million registered vehicles in 2020.[2]

The rules of the road

Canadian traffic laws are enforced under federal, provincial/territorial, and municipal jurisdictions.[3] Canada utilizes a right-hand traffic pattern, requiring traffic to keep to the right. Some provinces, however, initially had left-hand traffic patterns, with the exception of Quebec and Ontario which always had right-hand patterns.[4]

Unless there is a sign indicating otherwise, drivers are permitted to turn right on red everywhere in Canada except the Island of Montreal.[5]

Speed limits

See also: Speed limits in Canada

Speed limits are set by either the federal, provincial, or municipal governments depending on the jurisdiction under which the road falls.[6] In national parks for example, speed limits are set by Parks Canada, an agency of the federal government.[7][8][9] Depending on where you are driving, the speed limit typically ranges from 30 km/h to 100 km/h;[5] highway speed limits usually range from 100 km/h to 110 km/h depending on the province. British Columbia's highways have a speed limit of 120 km/h.[10]

Driver's license

Main article: Driver's licences in Canada

A driver's license is legally required to drive a motor vehicle in Canada. These licenses are issued by provincial/territorial governments, and must be carried when driving. The process to obtain a driver's license varies by province or territory, but typically contains a written test and a driving test.[11]

Risk and safety performance

In 2020, Transport Canada recorded 104,286 and 1,746 fatalities from vehicle collisions, an average decrease from 2011.[2]

Michelle Lise Wedge (born December 1, 1967) is a Canadian missing person who disappeared at the age of seven in Moncton, New Brunswick, on July 2, 1975.

Background

Michelle Lise Wedge was born on December 1, 1967.[1] She had five siblings, and the family lived on Dominion Street in Moncton, New Brunswick.[2]

Disappearance

On July 2, 1975, Wedge was riding her bicycle on Dominion Street, near her house in Moncton.[3] Her parents were away for the evening, and, having been supervised by her older siblings, she had been "enjoying the fact that she was up so late".[2] She returned home around 8:30 p.m., but left again shortly afterwards. Eyewitnesses last saw Wedge riding her "mustang-style bicycle" around that time.[4] Her bike was later found abandoned on the corner intersecting the Dominion and John streets.[3] She was described as having disappeared "sometime between dusk [9:13 p.m.] and dark [9:43 p.m.]". Wedge's siblings tried looking for her around the neighbourhood upon realization that she was missing, but to no avail. Wedge's parents were called at 11:30 p.m., and a missing person's report was made to police at 11:59 p.m.; Wedge was wearing navy shorts, stockings, and sandals, along with a red-and-white t-shirt at the time of her disappearance.[2]

The feature resulted in various calls being made to the RCMP.[7] Wedge's sister described their mother as having "wished for her return" and had "kept a picture of Michelle on her bedside table until her death" in 2014.[4]

*"However, one of the earliest moments in the series proves that isn't the case, as the scientist Dr. Wilzig defects from the organization early on."
*"While the organization doesn't get much time on-screen, it's clear that the Enclave have some sort of hidden base still very much active somewhere within walking distance of the L.A. ruins."
*The Fallout series' own Dogmeat (CX404). "Part of an Enclave breeding program, CX404 was saved by Dr. Wilzig despite not meeting the weight quota for healthy candidates in the program."[5] "Later, he's called Dogmeat by The Ghoul."[5]

*"The evil agency has been the primary antagonist of multiple Fallout video games, and The Enclave’s own past actions seem to make it a natural foe of Vault-Tec. Each group wants to rule the world in its own image. But if they are enemies, how did the evil masterminds at Vault-Tec let The Enclave get ahold of its cold fusion technology on Fallout?"[6]
*"Of all the factions featured in Fallout‘s first season, The Enclave was the least explored. But video game fans know all about the anti-communist, paramilitary organization."[6]

*"to accomplish its goal, it has enslaved people, performed horrible experiments, committed war crimes, and tried to wipe out entire populations and races."[6]
*"groups who compete with one another for resources have long been united in their hatred for the Enclave."
*"Until the truth about Vault-Tec came out in the series, the Enclave was the wasteland's unquestioned most evil group. But now that we know Vault-Tec's true purpose there are all new questions about how the two vile groups might be connected."[6]
*"spent years not only not only preparing to survive a nuclear war but also to rule after it commenced"[6]
*"spied on the experiments Vault-Tec ran on its Vaults prior to the great war"[6]
   *"then monitored life in the Vaults for centuries"[6]
        *"how Siggi Wilzig knew everything about Lucy MacLean's life"[6]
*"had the ability to manipulate vault behavior after the war"[6]
*"its members knew the nuclear bombs were coming"[6]

Appearances

The Enclave first appeared in Fallout 2,[3] 

*"They first appear as antagonists in Fallout 2, as they do not take kindly to those who have survived in America outside of their own installations and the vaults, as they believe them to be impure."[3]
*"This is a sharp contrast to their apparent downfall in the region after the destruction of their oil rig base at the end of Fallout 2. Fallout 3 was the last time the Enclave were seen as an active threat, albeit on the East Coast."[5]
*"The primary villians of Fallout 2 and Fallout 3 especially."[5]
*"Given how villified they were in the wasteland, they were met with stiff resistance anywhere they were found, including in Fallout 2 - where they had a base of operations on the West Coast."[3]


The Enclave was set to have a significant antagonist role in the Black Isle Studios release of Van Buren, which later cancelled.[1]

"Operation Overstep"[1] was the codename given to a sting operation conducted by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police done in order to catch members of the Medellín Cartel smuggling cocaine into the Canadian province of New Brunswick to distribute throughout Canada and the United States. In April 1989, the small plane used to smuggle 500 kilograms (1,100 lb) of cocaine, worth an estimated CA$250 million, crash-landed at the Weyman Airpark between Burtts Corner and Keswick. At the time, it was considered to be the largest cocaine seizure in Canadian history.

Background

During the 1980s, the United States began strengthening its surveillance operations on drug trafficking in the Caribbean and American Southeast, prompting South American smugglers to adopt new tactics for smuggling drugs into the United States, including flying them into the Canadian province of New Brunswick. At the time, Canada lacked the detection and intervention capabilities that the United States had, and New Brunswick in particular became a sought-after destination for drug traffickers due to being largely rural with several airstrips that were either rarely used or abandoned.[2]

In the late 1980s, the Medellín Cartel, led by Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar, took interest in New Brunswick as a North American smuggling route.[3] According to informant Douglas Jaworski[4][5] and corroborated by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) during later court proceedings, Escobar put into motion his cartel's plans to establish a cocaine "distribution base" for North America in the province.[4][6] After smuggling cocaine through flights to New Brunswick, traffickers would then use land transport to move it into the United States.[2]

Douglas Jaworski

Douglas Jaworski, a young Canadian pilot[7] with no criminal record,[8] worked for the Medellín Cartel in early 1988[9] by supplying them airplanes, performing money laundering for them,[7] while additionally routinely smuggling cocaine himself through flights.[9] He was assigned in Medellín by Alejandro Diego Vasquez Caycedo,[10] one of the cartel's senior managers, to help in the purchasing of a Aero Commander 695 by brokering the transaction. Jaworski fulfilled the task, and was further tasked by Caycedo to search Eastern Canada for an adequate airstrip that could be used by the cartel to fly to and distribute from.[9]

Operation

Instead of following through with Caycedo's assignment,[9] Jaworski went to the Toronto Pearson International Airport around the afternoon of December 16, 1988, where he approached Bert Gillies, a Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) constable. After talking to Gillies about "high-level dope dealers from South America," Gillies called over Keith Milner, his supervising corporal, who Jaworski nervously explained "that he could help the Mounties nab key members of the Medellín cocaine cartel."[11] Milner, out of interest and desperation for Jaworski to further contact him regarding the situation, provided Jaworski with his personal phone number. Before leaving, Jaworski followed Milner through extra details about what he knew as a worker in the drug trafficking industry.[12] Milner forwarded the information to his higher-ups, including Inspector Doug Ewing. Milner waited for Jaworski to contact him back,[13] which Jaworski did on December 20.[8] Jaworski had become increasingly nervous afterwards.[14] 

Further informant work, page 80+[15]

In total, Jaworski received CA$200,000 from the RCMP to act as an informant, with additional terms that he would be exempted from U.S. charges for tax evasion and money laundering by the Internal Revenue Service.[16][17][18]

new section

On January 19, 1989, Jaworski spoke with Caycedo on the phone to discuss Caycedo's "Jumping Jack Project".[19] Their conversation, which was wiretapped, had Jaworski give Caycedo the impression "that he was trying to buy property, set up a hangar, pay necessary taxes, and get his phone set up."[15] Because the RCMP had not fully trusted Jaworski yet, he employed excuses to stall Caycedo.[20] In February 1989, Jaworski, under Caycedo's instruction "to find an airstrip east of Montreal", used a helicopter to survey nine airstrips with the RCMP. These were then narrowed down to the two best options for Caycedo, the second of which was the Weyman Airpark; the RCMP preferred it due to being in closer proximity to their operations in Fredericton.[21]

Jaworski was tasked with persuading Caycedo to purchase the Weyman field, saying "that New Brunswick's airports were closer to Colombia than anywhere else in Canada" as well as using a false advertisement crafted by him and the RCMP which falsely listed the land as for sale.[22] Jaworski promised that he would get operations underway swiftly, and because Caycedo was also considering to take the operations to Albany, New York, Jaworski made further efforts to convince him that New Brunswick was a better choice.[23] 

"Jaworski and Pinguino surveyed tiny Wayman Field from the air. Wayman Field was a small private airstrip that belonged to a retired couple who were out of the country, but who had enthusiastically agreed to cooperate with the Mounties. The airstrip was near auto routes heading soutth, but also out of the way, making it a prime spot for Caycedo's operations."[24] Flying to New Brunswick, Jaworski being nervous for his family's safety:[25]

Initially, the flight to New Brunswick was to take place on March 13, 1989. The flight was cancelled at the time when smugglers were arrested in Sorel, Quebec.[26]

Crash-landing in New Brunswick

On April 3, 1989,[27] the plane crash-landed at the Weyman Airpark.[28][29] 

(expand on this later)
  • The flight was non-stop from Colombia.[30] The plane used was a Aero Commander 1000 with a twin-engine.[30] RCMP authorities waited for the plane to land, posing as drug dealers.[30] "a wing hit a tree as it was approaching the runway. The plane was severely damaged but no one was injured".[30] "the pilots panicked and ran off into the nearby woods. They were found moments later by undercover police who calmed them, whisked them off to Fredericton, and placed them on an Air Canada flight to Toronto. There, the pilots were led to believe that arrangements were being made to put them on a flight back to Colombia".[30]"Meanwhile, the drug packets were removed from the aircraft, placed on a truck, and "delivered to Montreal under our control," Supt. Pouliot said."[30] "Sources said the truck was driven by RCMP undercover agents posing as middlemen in a drug operation code-named Operation Overstep, which involved Canadian and U.S. customs officers and police in Fredericton, Montreal and Toronto."[30] "According to police, most of the cocaine was destined for the U.S. market, but at least 25 kilograms had been earmarked for Toronto and another 25 kilograms was slated for distribution in Montreal."[30] "Two Colombians, Jose Ali Galindo-Escobar, 27, and Fernando Augusto Mendoza-Jaramillo, 37, were arrested in Toronto on Wednesday evening, returned to Fredericton on Thursday and charged yesterday with importation of cocaine."[30] "Three other Colombians - Richard Delgrado-Marquez, 23, who lives in New York City, Carlos Mario Ortega-Gonzalez, 25, and Flora Emilse Currea-Miry, 30 - were arrested in Montreal on Thursday and charged with possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking and conspiracy to import cocaine."[30]


Arrests

  • "The RCMP made what it says is the largest drug seizure in Canadian history early Thursday when officers discovered 500 kilograms of cocaine with an estimated street value of up to 2300 million." "The cocaine in 500 single-kilogram bags cocaine arrived in Canada from Colombia last week on board a small two-engined aircraft which flew north along the US coast before crash-landing at a makeshift airport in New Brunswick RCMP in Fredericton said today." "There it was loaded on a truck and shipped to Montreal where it was found in a downtown apartment A Colombia-born man was arrested in the apartment." "Police said the pilot and two truckers who were also arrested came from Colombia as well."[31]
  • "Canadian police Thursday disclosed the arrest of four South Americans near the U.S. border carrying automatic weapons and 9-millimeter pistols amid growing fears that the Medellin cocaine cartel will attempt to retaliate against a U.S.-backed crackdown on Colombian drug kingpins." "Their arsenal included an Uzi submachine gun, Soviet and Israeli assault rifles and a Japanese grenade that was deactivated. Maps of several Canadian locations and an unmarked map of Maine were found in the cars, [Delbert Pelletier] said in an interview." "A defector from a Colombian paramilitary unit working for the Medellin cartel testified before the subcommittee Wednesday, saying among other things that [Bush] and subcommittee members could be targeted by the Colombian drug outlaws." "The four, traveling in three cars, were arrested Wednesday by police from Edmundston, New Brunswick, and were found to be carrying Venezuelan passports, two of which were determined to be fake, according to Edmundston's deputy police chief, Delbert Pelletier." "Although a grenade, tear gas, zap guns and a machete were found in the vehicles along with more than 2,000 rounds of ammunition for the weapons, a highly placed U.S. law enforcement source said: "It's not our belief that this is any kind of hit squad.""[33]
  • "Douglas Jaworski, 29, the star witness in a Montreal trial involving the largest cocaine seizure in Canadian history." "Jaworski has testified at the drug trial that in return for money, protection and immunity from prosecution, he agreed to become an informer for the RCMP about a major drug ring that was smuggling cocaine into Canada from Colombia." "He testified in Montreal that the RCMP had paid him $385,000 for his services. He said he wasn't broke when he went to the Mounties because he already had $435,000 in the bank." "But before he testified at the Montreal trial, he asked the Quebec courts to quash a subpoena requiring him to give evidence, saying the RCMP had failed to honor a commitment to provide security and financial compensation for his parents, even though there was "a real and substantial risk of physical harm to them or death."" "Jaworski argued that forcing him to testify would expose his parents "to the risk of being taken hostage, tortured and killed by members of the Colombian Medellin drug cartel," thereby breaching his parents' right to life, liberty and security of the person as guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms."[34]


Aftermath

Operation Overstep was part of "Project Amigo", a task force established by police in Ontario.[35]

In June 2010, Fernando Augusto Mendoza Jaramillo, one of the Colombian pilots involved in the smuggling bust, was murdered when a group of armed men waited for him to arrive at his farm in Cumaral, a municipality located in Colombia's Meta Department.[36]

The operation was later adapted into a theatrical play Cocaine Plane!, which was presented in early March 2015.[37]

University of New Brunswick Saint John (UNBSJ or UNB Saint John) is a satellite campus of the University of New Brunswick (UNB) in Saint John, New Brunswick. One of the two campuses of UNB, UNBSJ is the smaller campus and opened in 1964.

History

UNB's presence in Saint John dates back to 1923 when the Saint John Law School, established in 1892, became part of UNB. In 1953, the law school moved to the Starr Residence, known today as Beaverbrook House, which is still operated by UNBSJ. Eventually, after nearly forty years of remaining in Saint John, it relocated to the main campus in Fredericton.

Starting in 1951, UNB offered summer extension courses in Saint John High School and St. Vincent's Convent, which proved to be successful. This highlighted the existing demand for higher education in Saint John, which had been recognized by the city's Board of Trade as early as 1947. In 1959, there was a growing interest in establishing a college in Saint John, and a group called "Saint John College Development Incorporated" began advocating for a postsecondary institution in the city. However, the proposal faced skepticism due to UNB's financial challenges and the perceived surplus of degree-granting institutions in New Brunswick.

During this discussion, the City of Saint John provided the site of a former 229-acre farm on Sandy Point Road. The location was deemed advantageous due to its views, services, and its position in a rapidly developing area of the city. In September 1964, Beaverbrook House reopened as a satellite campus of UNB, enrolling 100 students. Over time, UNB Saint John expanded its operations to various locations, including the Old Provincial Building, the New Brunswick Technology Institute, the Presbyterian Church Hall, the YMCA building, as well as various high schools. Faculty recruitment posed a challenge, with many commuting from Fredericton or hired from high schools.

Simultaneously, plans for a new campus on the Tucker Park site progressed, with UNB's consulting architects, Larson and Larson, tasked with preparing a concept plan. The initial construction cost was $1,350,000,[1] which was part of a $10 million fundraising campaign led by UNB. In the same year, G. Forbes Elliot took the role as UNB Saint John's first principal. In 1965, the City of Saint John transferred ownership of 87 acres of land for the new campus.[2] Construction on the Tucker Park campus began in 1966, and the site officially opened in 1969, featuring Hazen Hall, Ganong Hall, and the Ward Chipman Library.

The campus expanded over the next two decades, constructing the G. Forbes Elliot Athletics Centre in 1975, the Canada Games Stadium in 1985, and the Thomas J. Condon Student Centre in 1986. Despite these developments, UNBSJ was considered a commuter campus until 1993, following the construction of the Sir James Dunn Residence. Additional buildings were constructed over subsequent years, such as the K.C. Irving Hall,[1] the Modern Languages Centre (now home to Dalhousie Medicine New Brunswick),[3] the Dr. Colin B. Mackay Residence,[4] and the Hans W. Klohn Commons.[5]

When a young boy with a bullet wound arrives in 1986, Tenma is about to operate when Chief of Surgery Dr. Oppenheim and Director Heinemann tell him to work on the mayor, who came in later instead. After a crisis of conscience, Tenma saves the life of the young boy who came in first while the mayor dies. At a banquet, Tenma asks for forgiveness from Director Heinemann who forgives him while blacklisting him and appointing Dr. Boyer the new chief neurosurgeon. Eva also ends their engagement. Weeks later, Tenma gets word from the police that Director Heinemann, Dr. Oppenheim and Dr. Boyer have been mysteriously killed. The chairman of the board appoints Tenma Chief of Surgery and Eva tries to reconcile, but Tenma ignores her.

Nine years later, Tenma learns that the doctors' murders were committed by the boy he saved when the now-grown boy, Johan Liebert, commits another right in front of him.[2] Johan is also the mastermind of the serial murders of middle-aged couples throughout Germany. Plagued by guilt, he resolves to find Johan and end the life of this "monster" he feels responsible for creating, while evading Inspector Lunge, who suspects Tenma of the murders. In his quest to kill Johan, Tenma nearly succeeds several times only to have him slip away until their final confrontation in Ruhenheim. When Johan wants Tenma to kill him, he threatens Wim Knaup when the child's drunk father mistakes Johan for a monster and shoots him. After Johan is flown to a hospital in a helicopter, Tenma treats him and is cleared of all charges. He later joins Doctors Without Borders, visits Johan's mother, and visits the comatose Johan in a police hospital.

Tenma is voiced by Hidenobu Kiuchi in the original anime and Liam O'Brien in the English adaptation.

Appearances

Reception

Comic Book Resources states that Tenma's role as a doctor and his value for life makes him an ideal protagonist in a piece of pseudo-detective fiction, as opposed to if he were instead a detective.[3] In another article, they also highlight the importance of Tenma's selflessness as a character trait while also considering it to be one of his largest flaws.[4] Tenma's moral obligation to act with intention to value life equally is also highlighted by The Daily Star.[5]

Canadian Syrup Inc., otherwise known as Steeves Maples, is a Canadian maple syrup company based in Elgin, a small village located in Albert County, New Brunswick. The company was established in 1869 and has worldwide distribution.

History

Steeves Maples began doing business in 1869 in Elgin, New Brunswick,[1] though members of the family have been in the industry there as early as 1825,[2] with festivals being held there annually.[3] John Steeves, the founder, used iron pots he received in exchange for lumber to create maple sugar by boiling the sap from sugar maple trees. Steeves followed business practices once done by the Mi'kmaq, beginning to trade his produce around the area and in nearby Moncton. As his business would be passed down generations, more trees in Elgin would start being tapped. Steeves Maples became the largest maple production company in New Brunswick within its third generation of ownership,[1] continuing to produce maple syrup in their Elgin plant.[4] Their products are commonly sold in Maritime grocery stores,[5] while also becoming distributed worldwide by the 21st century.[1]

In early 2001, maple syrup produced in Quebec was at risk of being boycotted in Vermont due to utilizing banned pesticide products. The alternative producers were those based in New Brunswick, including Steeves Maples, who refrained from using them.[6] In the 2000's, the company participated in a provincial business agreement that saw their trade be expanded into China.[7] In November 2008, the company also participated in an Atlantic Canadian trade mission in Chicago.[8] In 2009, their processing plant, located inside of a barn, was destroyed by fire.[4] At the time, the company employed 15 people at its rural plant,[9] with the fire having to be extinguished by six different firefighting departments.[10]
