Two laptops and other electronics are set up in a room adjacent to the operating room. A wide window pane separates the two spaces. At the laptops sits a man in blue scrubs, his hand on one of the laptops. On the other side of the glass, two male doctors talk as they look at an oversized monitor on the wall that shows graphs and charts. Next to the doctors is a patient on a gurney.

Four conditions for the new Clean Electricity Investment Tax Credit

The little heart is fashioned out of plywood and is attached to a long piece of plastic with purple ribbons a couple of inches long hanging from it. The wooden piece would fit in the palm of your hand. The woman holding it has wraparound sunglasses and a white shirt. She’s standing in a row of women who are holding similar items. The mood is somber, with shadows and sunlight intermingling across the faces of the group.

Historic meeting of ministers needs to look at international human rights

Trois affiches sont visibles sur un poteau qui s’élève en bordure d’une route pavée. Celle du haut invite à circuler à basse vitesse en raison de la présence possible d’enfants, celle du milieu signale que les lieux sont une propriété privée de la nation Squamish et la dernière, plus grande, recommande aux gens de s’isoler chez eux ou, à défaut, de maintenir une distanciation sociale. Un filet de basket-ball est visible derrière les panneaux et l’on aperçoit un village en arrière-plan.

Une rangée de bidons rouge vif se trouve à côté d'une camionnette blanche. Au premier plan, un homme coiffé d'un bonnet d'hiver qui lui couvre les oreilles, vêtu d'une veste et d'un pantalon de couleur foncée. Derrière lui se trouve un homme portant un volumineux gilet gris-bleu avec un grand drapeau noué autour du cou et accroché dans le dos. À l'arrière-plan, on aperçoit la tour de la paix de la Colline du Parlement. D'autres personnes se déplacent. Une rangée de gros camions est garée côte à côte à proximité, avec des affiches de protestation attachées aux véhicules. Elles ne sont pas lisibles, à l'exception de l'une d'entre elles, qui dit « merci ».
