Ottawa is spending $4.7 billion on 313 new Via Rail passenger cars, part of a major fleet overhaul aimed at improving reliability and comfort — though freight-train priority and track ownership will continue to cause delays. Plus, Canadian food regulators are investigating an illegal relabelling operation in India after a bag of chips with an English-French label was found in a warehouse raid, raising concerns that expired products could be bound for Canada. And in The Big Picture: Ukraine’s former defence minister is launching a Palantir-backed defence tech startup that will use the country’s wartime experience to build technology for Ukraine and its allies.
