Question: SF subpoenas Uber, Lyft over driver wages, classification

Represent this text to find a news title for it

After a California Supreme Court decision last month that could drastically affect the gig economy, San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera has issued subpoenas to Uber and Lyft.
Herrera wants to know whether the ride-sharing companies are classifying their drivers as employees or contractors, and is asking for documentation about driver pay, benefits and more. A key part of what he’s seeking is “proof that any driver classified as an independent contractor meets all three criteria set by the California Supreme Court,” according to the subpoena issued Tuesday.
The state’s high court in its ruling in April adopted the “ABC” standard: A worker can be considered an independent contractor only when a company can show the worker controls his or her work; that the worker’s duties go beyond what the business normally does; and when the worker “is customarily engaged in an independently established trade, occupation, or business of the same nature as the work performed for the hiring entity.”
“We don’t know whether these ride-hailing companies are breaking the law until they provide the information we seek in these subpoenas,” Herrera said in a statement Tuesday. “We are going to ensure that these companies comply with the Supreme Court’s ruling and with San Francisco’s laws.”
Herrera also issued a subpoena to Rasier, an Uber affiliate.
“This is a proactive way to get to the question of misclassification since with individual and class actions there is always the issue of settlements that do not resolve the actual question, as has been the case with both Uber and Lyft,” University of San Diego law professor Orly Lobel, a labor law specialist, said Wednesday. Amid the rise of the gig economy, Lobel has suggested reforming labor law protections.
The San Francisco-based ride-hailing companies have long faced the employee-vs.-contractor question. The California Supreme Court’s answer could upend the business models of their industry — the “gig economy” — which depends on low labor costs. Uber and Lyft, which make mobile apps that are used to hail rides, tout their drivers’ flexibility to make their own schedules when they defend their classification of drivers as contractors.
When reached for comment Wednesday, an Uber spokesman declined to comment. Lyft has not yet returned a request for comment.
Herrera has been investigating Uber and Lyft for about a year. Last June, he subpoenaed them for information as he investigates issues related to discrimination, safety and disability access. According to Herrera’s press release this week, Lyft has provided the information he sought, while Uber has appealed a court order to comply with his requests.

Uber is facing a $1.1 million fine in California after a state review found the ride-hailing company failed to investigate many "zero tolerance" cases involving alleged drunk drivers.
Of the 2,047 complaints Uber received about drunk drivers between August 2014 and August 2015, the company suspended only 574 drivers, according to a complaint filed this week by California's Public Utilities Commission, which handles the regulation of ride-hailing companies.
The complaint specifically focuses on 154 cases during the period, and alleges Uber conducted an investigation in only 21 of those instances.

Perhaps the most troubling detail: Within an hour of being the subject of a zero tolerance complaint, 64 Uber drivers were still picking up passengers.
According to the complaint, in many cases, there was "no evidence" that the company "followed up in any way with zero tolerance complaints several hours or even one full day after passengers filed such complaints."

An Uber representative told NBC News the company has "zero tolerance for any impaired driving," which is also outlined in the company's community guidelines.

By Scott T. Sterling
Sam Smith has announced that his new album The Thrill Of It All will be released on November 3.
The announcement was coupled with the release of a new single, “Pray.” The song is mid-paced and emotive, matching Smith’s powerful vocals with piano and a sparse beat, and gradually blossoming with a background choir, strings and guitar. “Pray” was produced by Timbaland.
The singer also announced a large run of North American tour dates for 2018.

Smith recently sat with Radio.com to discuss the new album.
“It’s a diary, but not just about me, the singer said. “It’s my thoughts and feelings on my family, fame, the world, all these different things. It’s still a diary just attacked it from a different angle.”
Sam also opened up about the role his family played in the making of his sophomore effort.
“My family have been a part of every single moment of this record, I live with my sister so every time I come back from the studio, I play her everything I’ve made,” he said. “I sat with my mom and dad this time a lot and actually my mom throws amazing dinner parties and I would go over their house and we’d all crack open a bottle of wine and we’d sit round the table and I’d play them stuff. They’re actually really honest with me and when they’re not feeling something they’ll let me know, and I’ll disagree with them.”
“My dad hated, “Stay with Me” I remember when I played it for him he absolutely hated it, so they’re very honest,” he continued.
“Some of my family’s stories have made it into the album so, which, it’s an amazing thing. The relationships my family have been in have inspired songs so it’s also their diary now as well.”
Sam Smith is set to perform at this year’s We Can Survive concert, set for Oct. 21 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. Smith will appear alongside Alessia Cara, Harry Styles, Kesha, Khalid, Lorde, Macklemore, P!nk and Sam Hunt.

Question: Park planned in memory of girl who died during Fort McMurray wildfire evacuation

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title!

A new park is planned in memory of a young woman who was killed while fleeing the Fort McMurray wildfire last spring.
Emily Ryan, 15, died in head-on collision during the mass evacuation of the city and surrounding communities. Aaron Hodgson, 19, her stepmother's nephew, was also killed in the crash.
The pair were in an SUV that collided with a tractor-trailer on Highway 881 on May 4. They both died at the scene.
Emily's father and stepmother want to use the funds they've received since her death to build a park in her memory, they said in emotional interviews with CBC News,
"Her life and weekends have been campfires and the outdoors," stepmother Melonie Matthews-Ryan said, "It started out as something we as a family thought was an important way to capture Emily's spirit in the nature and outdoors."
The wildfire forced 80,000 thousand people to flee the northern Alberta city and its communities. Panicked drivers jammed clogged streets and highways, while embers rained down from trees exploding at the side of the road.
Emily's father, Cranley Ryan, a deputy chief with the Wood Buffalo fire department, was battling May's wildfire when he heard his daughter died in a car crash. (David Thurton/ CBC News)
During those frenzied two days, Emily and Aaron moved from one Fort McMurray subdivision to another. They fled to a nearby town where all the hotel rooms were full. The pair slept in the car.
Eventually they made it to Conklin, a town 150 kilometers south of Fort McMurray, where volunteers welcomed them with a BBQ.
"The people of Conklin were like, 'Come. Pull in here. We got food, we got water,' " Cranley Ryan, Emily's father, said.
" 'We don't know how long it's been since you had a break.' "
Not much sleep
When his daughter and Aaron finally left Conklin. Ryan said they were part of a convoy heading down Highway 881. Someone in another car saw their SUV drift into the oncoming lane.
"We think (Aaron) just fell asleep after all that excitement. They hadn't had much sleep," Ryan said.
(Stephen Barkley)
Lac La Biche RCMP said the SUV collided with a semi-truck carrying rail ties near the Heart Lake First Nation.
The crash ignited a massive fire, visible kilometres away, which closed the highway. The investigation into the crash is over.
Although no one died during the wildfire, many in Fort McMurray consider Emily and Aaron casualties of one of Canada's largest evacuations.
Over the last eight months, the Ryan family received cheques and messages of support from the public. Initially they thought about using the money to build a reading bench.
Smoke from the crash could be seen from kilometres away, according to a witness. (Stephen Barkley)
"We didn't know where the limit was going to be," Matthews-Ryan said, "And the more donations that we get in, we realize the park gets to be even better than we could even imagine it being."
The family has received $16,000 so far and businesses have promised more.
Ryan admits he knows nothing about engineering a park and many of the details need to be worked out.
Family and friends hope the park will be in Beacon Hill, a community in Fort McMurray, because it was one of the areas hardest hit by the fire. Ryan and his five children also went to the school there.
In February, he hopes to form a committee with the municipality to turn their ideas into reality
Working through the pain
Projects like the park are helping Ryan and his wife work through the pain.
Emily's birthday on Dec. 1, which she shares with her triplet siblings, was especially tough.
"The day started out being very difficult," Ryan said, "I was having quite a time dealing with this."
They celebrated anyway.
"You get focused on doing other tasks and you get so much support from people that show up," Ryan said.
He welcomes distractions like these because it's a reminder life continues.
"You got to push through. It's not always the easiest."

Question: Mutharika blasted for snubbing the media on UNGA trip, labeled as coward

Represent this text to find a news title for it.

President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika’s move to stay away from at a press conference which was to take place at Kamuzu Palace to brief journalists on his trip to United Nation General Assembly (UNGA) has attracted criticisms from all corners with others describing him as coward.
President Mutharika directed Minister of Foreign Affairs and international Cooperation Emmanuel Fabiano, Minister of Information and Communications Technology Nicholas Dausi, State House Director of Communications Bright Molande and his Press Officer Mgeme Kalilani to hold media briefing on his behalf.
In his speech, Molande defended President Mutharika on his decision to stay away from the press, saying the press conference was not the only platform for Mutharika to issues arising.
Mollande said “there is no statutory requirement” that when a President goes abroad there should be a press conference on return.
But Malawians on the social media have not taken the issue lightly. Others went on throwing jabs at Mutharika.
Chris M. Banda wrote: “The results of becoming a president through the courts one fears reporters so too parliament! Only a stage-managed question from the useless mbc reporter can be responded to!”
Concurring with Banda’s remarks Dipipi wa Yudiefu wrote: “Lost opportunity. Pita is being ill advised by his all dull ministers. He is a moron too, cabbage. The easiest course to study kunjakutu ndi law. Anthu sadzivatu kuMalawi. Most law institutions are simply rented houses in some suburbs or housing estates. Some few years back we used to have lawyers in this country who studied through correspondence in South Africa. Ndiye osamukweza kwambiri nkuluyu. He is equally a naturally born dull person. According to one of our learned politicians in opposition, our president is one of vitsiru vophunzira.”
Others have went further in criticizing Mutharika’s advisors, saying they are ill-advising the President.
“Do these morons understand that the President is our employee paid using our taxes and we deserve to know what he was doing out there? How can they insult Malawians through such sentiments like there is no law requiring the President to address the press? It just shows how incompetent these people are,” wrote Charombanthu.
On his part, Charles Westad said: “He has to decide if he want to be a democratic leader or naive DPP dictator. The press confress is so malawian can get answers to why he cant controll his violent youth and think he can controll malawi.”
Meanwhile it is not known as to why President Mutharika has dodged the media on UNGA trip.

Quasi religious body, the Public Affairs Committee (PAC) has added its voice to calls for President Peter Mutharika to step aside following reports that his party has benefitted from public money loot through a dubious police contract of food supply.
PAC spokesperson Reverend Father Peter Mulomole was referring to a K145 million deposited in the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) bank account by Pioneer Investments, a contractor tasked with supplying $4 million worth of rations to Malawi's police..
A leaked report from the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) shows Mutharika may have beneftted from the supplier who is being investigated for 'Cashgate' style looting scandal.
"The President is not above the legislators law. This government has failed. When we say this government has failed, they ask us to bring evidence, this is the evidence," he said.
Mulomole said the scandal has shocked the nation, saying the only thing to do was for Mutharika to resign.
An audit expert, Reverend Zacc Kawalala, said it was bad financial governance for the DPP bank account to have a sole signatory, President Mutharika.
Meanwhile, Pioneer Investments has been awarded another contract at Escom where they are to supply and deliver conductors worth K1.5 billion.
Sources at Escom said the DPP bulldozed the contract to Zameer Karim, the owner of Pioneer Investments although there are enough conductors in stock.
Mutharika, in his closing remarks at the DPP convention, told the newly elected national governing council members to avoid using their positions to gain contracts from companies.
"I know some of you go to companies saying I am the director in the DPP so give me business. I am warning you -- you must stop. I know you," he said.
He said he is not eyeing for presidency for self enrichment.
Meanwhile, the Malawi Law Society has said Leader of Opposition Lazarus Chakwera's call for early elections after Mutharika resigns is unjustifiable.
The MLS president Alfred Majamanda said the laws are very clear that is when the president resigns or is incapacitated, the vice president takes over.

Question: Dual shows feature work of 100-plus artists at Sedona Arts Center

Sedona Arts Center is proudly featuring two spectacular artist events in Uptown Sedona.
In the Fine Art Gallery, SAC is showcasing the creative bronze sculptures and jewelry by Deanne McKeown along with fine knives and canes designed by Byron McKeown. Photographer Elaine Belvin graces their walls with her wonderful scenes of Arizona and beyond. Oil painters Sandra Meissner and Gary Jenkins are adding color with their paintings of the Salt River Horses, koi ponds and graceful birds in natural surroundings.
In the Historic Art Barn Theatre Gallery is the 38th Annual Juried Members Show featuring an impressive variety of artwork by member artists.
Deanne McKeown
Deanne was born in Missouri and lived in early childhood in the Pinal Mountains of central Arizona. She has explored a variety of media since graduating from the Kansas City Art Institute - painting and printmaking, fiber, leaded glass, graphic design...and most recently, jewelry design and bronze sculpture. For many years she worked in the field of medical illustration, both as director of the Design and Illustration department at the University of Kansas Medical School and as a free-lance illustrator of medical books.
“None of us perceive the world in exactly the same way. Our oneness lies in a yearning to touch and to understand. My work is an endeavor to share my thoughts and vision through form and color and relationships, hoping to charge my images with meaning which will reach across the spaces between us. However, in the long run, it’s all about making art - great if there’s communication, but if not, I’d still do it anyway. In looking back over a lifetime of working and exploring ideas, I realize that I have never created art, art has been, and is now, creating me.”
Byron McKeown
Byron was born in Kansas City, Missouri and in 1956 enrolled in the Kansas City Art Institute’s BFA program. Here he was introduced to the magical world of visual arts and where he met Deanne, the girl who was to become my friend, my wife and my life partner. At the Kansas City Art Institute he wasn’t taught to do “ART”, instead, was encouraged to ask questions . . . about everything. He learned the difference between just looking and actually seeing. The importance of identifying a problem before trying to solve it and experimented with a number of visual languages.
“I believe that I’ve learned more from my many failures than my few successes. Sixty years have passed since Deanne and I began our journey of exploration together. It has been, and continues to be, a wonderful life.”
Sandra Meissner
Sandra was born in St. Paul Minnesota. During the course of her education she learned the art of painting which she approached with gusto. She painted about 15 works for a one woman show where all the painting sold. Instead of continuing in art education she entered nurses training and did not paint again for 40 years.
After graduating from nurses training she worked as a nurse for a number of years until developing a passion for horses. She studied Dressage (classical riding) with two European Olympic coaches and went on to build a horse stable with an indoor hall where she successfully bought, sold and trained horses and riders. She has since retired from the horse world.
A great day now is to paint, working from photographs and to catch the light, shadow, color and contrast in the simple beauty of the subject. Sandra’s current body of work consists of painting flowers and horses. She prefers simple subjects that make a statement of their own individuality and creates an emotion such as serenity or drama.
“Painting is an outward expression of the inward excitement and fascination I see in color, line, shapes, shadows and light. I enjoy investigating the intricate design of things such as the warm or cool shadows of color on the edge of a flower petal or the reflection of light on the delicate eyelash of a horse. Contrasts in dark shadow versus bright light or soft curving lines in juxtaposition to hard straight lines keep me searching nature for the never ending supply of contrasts found in nature’s beauty that I enjoy trying to capture on canvas.”
Elaine Belvin
Elaine Belvin’s interest in photography was sparked by the beautiful landscapes she and her husband saw while hiking in the American Southwest. After a long career in Information Technology, photography is now her focus and hiking gives her access to remarkable sites.
Elaine brings a combination of artistic and technological skills to her images. She uses the camera as a tool to create works of art that capture an expression, a mood, a natural geometry, an exceptional quality of light, or a striking color palette. Computer technology helps her to transform what the camera captured into what she saw in her mind’s eye. It is this combination of artistic and computer skills that shapes the final product. Through photography, she has discovered a way of expressing and representing the things that touch her and hopefully, touch others.
Elaine’s portfolio includes nature, wildlife and vintage images from the American Southwest, Africa and other travel destinations. Her photographic work has consistently been recognized for its excellence.
Gary Jenkins
Gary was born in Brooklyn, New York and raised in St. Petersburg Florida. Upon graduation from the Ringling School of Art in Sarasota Florida, he moved to Southern California where he started his full-time art career working as a key line artist for a large greeting card company. This was followed by connecting with Aaron Brothers Art Supply. In his spare time Gary began painting and eventually developed his trademark style of oil painting, focusing primarily on landscapes and florals. As his career blossomed Gary was approached to participate in a television production which began a long and successful TV art career in addition to teaching, traveling and producing several books and DVD’s.
Gary has been painting for over 50 years and been a full-time professional artist/teacher for over 40 years. He is well known as a floral artist but he also enjoys painting exotic birds and fish along with a few landscapes.
The Sedona Arts Center is located at 15 Art Barn Road in Sedona.

Question: 5 ways to repel mosquitos this summer

Taylor Martin/CNET
Mosquitos are a nuisance. No matter where you live, you've likely encountered these flying pests that suck your blood and leave itchy bite wounds. In fact, with the rise of the Zika virus in recent years, mosquitos are more than a nuisance in some areas. Zika, West Nile and malaria, all carried by types of mosquitoes, are serious concerns for people across the globe. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) even approved the lab creation of bacteria-infected mosquitos last year to kill those that carry Zika. The Gates Foundation also funded a project to kill mosquitos known to carry malaria.
When it comes to protecting yourself from these pesky and sometimes perilous insects, there are several options. Here are a few methods of mitigation to make sure burgers are the only things bitten at your next barbecue.
Start with your surroundings
Before you slather yourself with bug spray, take time to make your backyard or outdoor space less inviting to mosquitos. Eliminate any standing, stagnant water where mosquitos could breed. That includes places like buckets, gutters, play sets or plastic covers.
If you have items outdoors that need water, like bird baths, fountains or rain barrels, empty any excess water you can and change out the water at least once a week to keep it fresh. If you have a pool, be sure to keep the water properly treated and circulated.

Grow your garden
If you're looking for a chemical-free approach to repelling mosquitos, potted plants and a few additions to your garden can go a long way. It's the essential oils inside these plants that truly repels mosquitos, and those oils are released when the leaves are crushed, burned or rubbed directly onto skin. Here's a list of plants thought to keep mosquitos at bay with their scents and essential oils:
Marigolds
Lavender
Citronella grass
Catnip
Rosemary
Basil
Lemon balm
Scented geraniums
Adjust your wardrobe
It's probably not the advice you'd like to hear in the hot summer months, but donning long sleeves, socks and pants is one way to protect against mosquito bites. Fabric can act as a barrier, making it more difficult for mosquitos to reach your skin in the first place. If long sleeves and pants aren't your summer style, tucking in your shirt is still a good idea.
Consider a repellent spray or device
Miguel Schincariol / AFP/Getty Images
If you're not bothered by the idea of a chemical solution (and we don't blame you if you are), there are dozens of sprays, wristbands and mosquito-repelling wearables on the market. The Guarden Bandito, a crowdfunded wearable uses scent and sound to repel mosquitos.
If you're stuck deciding what you need in a repellent, the EPA has a search tool to help you find the right fit for your situation. Which ones are most effective? The Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommends using an EPA-registered product with one of the following active ingredients for maximum repelling power:
DEET
Picaridin (known as KBR 3023 and icaridin outside the US)
IR3535
Oil of lemon eucalyptus (OLE) or para-menthane-diol (PMD)
2-undecanone
If you're pregnant, nursing or have a small child, it's important to take extra care when applying chemicals on or near the skin. Visit the CDC's website for tips on applying repellents safely.
Invest in a misting system
Misting systems are one way to seriously wage war against mosquitos on your property. These systems are made up of nozzles connected via tubing to a tank that holds an insecticide. The nozzles, set around the perimeter of your yard, spray a fine mist of insecticide to kill and repel mosquitos. Automatic spraying occurs in timed intervals, or you can activate the system through a remote control. Misting is thought to be safe for households with children and pets, and there are all natural misting solutions, but it's still recommended that you avoid the area while the actual misting is taking place.
This method of repeated spraying is effective, but it doesn't come cheap. DIY versions costs several hundred dollars, while full-service, professionally installed systems can cost as much as $5,000 for a quarter-acre lot. Still, if you have a serious problem with pests, you might be happy to trade your dollars for comfort. For more information on misting and how insecticides are regulated in your state, read the EPA's guide.
Try these methods to find the right solution for your space. Whether it's potted plants or potent sprays, you can enjoy a mosquito-free space all summer.

E.g. '['I found this news title. Can you represent it to find an explanatory news article?', 'Nobel Peace Prize awarded to anti-nuclear campaign group']' == '['This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title', 'OSLO— The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded Friday to the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, a group of mostly young activists pushing for a global treaty to ban the cataclysmic bombs.\nThe award of the $1.1-million prize comes amid heightened tensions over both North Korea\'s aggressive development of nuclear weapons and President Donald Trump\'s persistent criticism of the deal to curb Iran\'s nuclear program.\nThe prize committee wanted "to send a signal to North Korea and the U.S. that they need to go into negotiations," Oeivind Stenersen, a historian of the peace prize, told The Associated Press. "The prize is also coded support to the Iran nuclear deal. I think this was wise because recognizing the Iran deal itself could have been seen as giving support to the Iranian state."\nThe Geneva-based ICAN has campaigned actively for the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons adopted by the United Nations in July, but which needs ratification from 50 countries.

Question: Final vote count in New Zealand election tightens close race

TURANGI, New Zealand — New Zealanders still don't know who will next lead their country after a final vote count from a general election held two weeks ago tightened the close race between liberals and incumbent conservatives.
Election officials on Saturday released the final 17 per cent of the vote tally, including votes cast by people who were outside of their district or overseas during the election. The conservative National Party ended with 44 per cent of the vote, while the liberal bloc of the Labour Party and the Green Party ended with a combined 43 per cent.
Negotiations to form the next government will now begin in earnest.
Both sides will need to talk with the small New Zealand First party, led by maverick 72-year-old lawmaker Winston Peters. That party finished with 7 per cent of the vote, leaving it holding the balance of power.
Peters hasn't indicated which of the larger parties he favours. A former National Party lawmaker, Peters has formed coalitions in the past with both National and Labour.
In the 120-seat parliament, the votes translate to 56 seats for National, 46 for Labour, nine for New Zealand First and eight for the Green Party. The final vote count gave both Labour and the Green Party one extra seat apiece over their election night tally. Those came at the expense of the National Party, which lost two seats.
Prime Minister Bill English said voters had clearly favoured National over Labour and he looked forward to engaging with Peters so National could lead a strong and stable government.
The National Party has held power for the past nine years.
"Not since 1969 has the National Party finished ahead of the Labour opposition at four successive elections, and I want to thank everyone involved in this historic achievement," English said in a statement.
Labour leader Jacinda Ardern said she welcomed the final tally.

Zimbabweans flood registration centers to register to vote, and verify that their names are on the ballot, as the voter registration period wraps up, now that the election date of July 30th has been announced.

Question: Canada's economy suddenly hot

But is it real, analysts wonder?
Almost out of nowhere, Canada has become one of the fastest growing economies in the developed world.
The oil-producing nation, which struggled mightily with falling crude prices the past two years, grew at an annualized pace of almost 4 per cent in the first quarter, according to the Bank of Canada's latest estimates. No other Group of Seven economy even came close.
For all 2017, the central bank is projecting 2.6 per cent growth — which would put the economy at the top of the rich-country growth scale.
Yet even with the economy suddenly running hot, caution prevails. The Canadian dollar has had a middling performance despite the strong economic numbers.
At a rate decision last week in Ottawa, Canada's central bank revised up growth projections for 2017, but cut them for 2018. It also raised questions about the sustainability of the rebound and the country's long-term growth outlook.
The Bank of Canada "welcomes the recent strength in economic data and wants to see more of it in order to be more confident that growth is on a solid footing," Senior Deputy Governor Carolyn Wilkins told reporters Wednesday.
What Gives?
Policy makers provided three reasons for why they believe growth will revert to a slower pace:
The energy sector is stabilizing, which removes a major drag on GDP. But that doesn't mean it will be a source of growth any time soon. An increase in government transfers is boosting household spending, but here too the impacts on growth will level off. Housing activity in the greater Toronto region, which has been on a tear, will slow.
And they added another worry. Whatever growth there is just doesn't feel right given the weakness of exports and investment.
"We do not yet see the well-balanced base," Wilkins said.
Governor Stephen Poloz has often outlined what he thinks the economy will look like when things return to normal — a self-generating expansion not fuelled by policy. Trade and business investment are crucial to that story.
But those two components have rarely been weaker. The central bank for example sees business investment declining for a third straight year in 2017 — only the second time in records dating back to the 1950s that's ever happened and the first time outside of a recession.
Week Ahead
International securities transactions, investment in non-residential construction (Tuesday, 8:30 a.m.) Existing home sales (Tuesday, 9am) Bank of Canada Senior Deputy Governor Wilkins delivers remarks to Toronto Regional Board of Trade (Tuesday, 12:30 a.m.) Employment insurance, travel into and out of Canada (Thursday, 8:30 a.m.) Consumer price index, principal field crop areas (Friday, 8:30 a.m.)
Going Home
Exports and business investment remain an important part of the normalization narrative for the central bank, despite their recent poor performance.
By 2019, those two segments will contribute 1.3 percentage points to a forecast 1.8 per cent growth rate that year, according to the bank's new forecasts.
Without that, there will be nothing to offset an expected slowdown in household spending, residential investment and government stimulus.
In fact, what may explain policy makers' caution is that they're much more sure of the latter. Household consumption as a share of the economy has been hovering at the highest since possibly as far back as the 1960s. Debt levels are at records and Poloz believes Toronto's housing market is due for a correction.
As far as business investment and exports go, the central bank is struggling even to understand what's going on, let alone forecast it.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Michigan's Charles Matthews is removing his name from consideration for the NBA draft.
Matthews announced his decision Wednesday, saying he's learned a lot through this process. He says he'll now focus on finishing his education at Michigan and leading his teammates to more success next season. The Wolverines made it to the NCAA title game this year before losing to Villanova .
Michigan already lost big man Moe Wagner, who left early for the draft. Matthews declared for the draft without hiring an agent, but he's now withdrawing.
The 6-foot-6 Matthews averaged 13 points a game this past season, his first with the Wolverines after transferring from Kentucky and sitting out a season. He has two seasons of college eligibility remaining.

Question: Vehicles sales fall behind 2017's record pace

DesRosiers Automotive Consultants says a five-year growth trend in year-to-date sales of new light vehicles in Canada ended in June.
The Toronto auto market watcher says 1,036,677 new light vehicles were sold in Canada in the first six months of the year, down 0.2 per cent from the record-setting six-month total of 1,039,068 in the same period of 2017.
It was the first decline in year-to-date numbers since March 2013 and comes as June marked the fourth month in a row of year-over-year monthly declines in sales.
Sales of new vehicles were down 1.6 per cent in June at 200,156 versus the same month last year, as a 1.4 per cent gain in sales of light trucks was more than offset by an eight per cent decline in passenger car sales.

"['Represent this text to find a news title for it.', 'Drivers in the United States are seeing a new technological trend creeping into their vehicles: unlimited cellular connectivity and usage. Canadian drivers aren’t so lucky, at least for now.\nGeneral Motors and Jaguar Land Rover last month became the first two auto makers to offer drivers in-vehicle 4G LTE wireless with no monthly usage caps, both at $20 (U.S.) a month. The built-in services, which effectively turns cars into moving WiFi hotspots, are being delivered through AT&T, the second-largest wireless network provider in the United States.\nWhile GM’s unlimited OnStar usage costs the equivalent of $27 (Canadian) in the United States, Canadian drivers are limited to choosing between one gigabyte for $15, 4 GB for $35 or 10 GB for $70. Jaguar Land Rover’s Canadian division confirms that no major carriers are offering unlimited data usage for vehicles, and the company doesn’t anticipate the situation changing any time soon.\n“In the American market, it makes sense, but it’s unlikely we’d see anything like that here,” says Brahm Eiley, president of Victoria-based Convergence Research Group. “The wireless market in the United States is and always has been completely different than Canada’s.”\nBoth manufacturers said built-in connectivity is increasingly being used for a number of in-car applications and is rapidly becoming a key factor in new-vehicle purchasing decisions. Chevrolet, for one, said its customers streamed more than 17.5 million hours of video in their vehicles last year. Over all, data usage via OnStar 4G LTE tripled over 2015.\n“We have contractors bidding [for] jobs in their Silverados, families streaming movies in their Suburbans and Malibus, and everyone tapping into the cloud for music,” said Alan Batey, global head of Chevrolet, in a statement.\nThe unlimited in-car options mirror what’s happening in the broader U.S. wireless market. AT&T and its three main competitors, Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint have, in recent months, been engaged in a game of one-upmanship when it comes to data offers.\nAll four are trying to lure customers with offers featuring unlimited usage. Verizon is the largest U.S. provider, with approximately 142 million customers, followed by AT&T with 131 million, T-Mobile at 67 million and Sprint with 58 million, according to Jackdaw Research.\nCanada, in comparison, has about 30 million total wireless subscribers, according to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission. Bell, Rogers and Telus control more than 90 per cent of the market, with each having roughly an equal share of customers.\nNumerous studies have found Canada to have among the highest wireless prices in the world. A study by research firm Nordicity last year, for example, found Canadians paid, on average, $41.08 for an entry-level cellphone plan, or considerably more than the $17.15 subscribers paid in Germany.\nCanada’s big carriers typically don’t offer unlimited data-usage plans. Rogers’s biggest offering for smartphones in Ontario, for example, is 60 GB at $375 a month.\nThe U.S. market is more competitive, Eiley says, because T-Mobile and Sprint are considerably smaller than Verizon and AT&T and are, therefore, more likely to rock the boat with consumer-friendly deals.\nIn-car connectivity, also known as telematics, looks to be lagging in Canada as a result. About two-thirds of vehicles in Canada this year will have embedded telematics, compared with about three-quarters in the United States, according to IHS Markit.\n“There is a bit of resistance there,” says Colin Bird, senior auto-tech analyst for IHS Markit. “It’s not as robust.”\nIn the long term, analysts expect car manufacturers to effectively override wireless prices – regardless of market – in order to add features that consumers are seeking. Many drivers are demanding over-the-air updates of entertainment systems to keep them current; this requires connectivity.\nSafety regulators are also increasingly requiring connectivity. The European Parliament, for example, passed the eCall mandate in 2015. As of 2018, all new cars sold in the European Union will have a module that will automatically dial a dedicated phone number and transmit its location to emergency services.\nCar makers may eventually swallow the cost of wireless service themselves or pass it on to consumers in the form of higher sticker prices.\nEither way, IHS Markit expects the differences in telematics installations between countries to level out over time. The firm sees 95 per cent of new cars in Canada having connectivity by 2022, compared with 98 per cent in the United States.\nFrost and Sullivan is more conservative with its forecasts, expecting global installations of about 70 per cent by 2022. But the research firm also expects ubiquitous vehicle connectivity over time.\n“It’s almost a given that most cars will be connected,” principal analyst Ronald Gruia says.\nReport Typo/Error']" == "['Represent this title to get a news article that provides more details about it', 'In-car connectivity in Canada lags far behind U.S.']"

Hyundai Motor (OTC:HYMLF) and affiliate Kia Motors (OTC:KIMTF), which together form the world's fifth-largest automaker by sales, are bracing for another challenging year as they adjust to an industry shift away from sedans to SUVs.
Their combined sales target for this year is 8.25M cars, up just 1.5% from a 2016 target of 8.13M.
The South Korean automakers' final sales figures for 2016 are also due out later today, with analysts expecting a miss due to weak demand in emerging markets.

Question: Kourtney Kardashian arrives on Capitol Hill to clean up cosmetics

Reality TV star Kourtney Kardashian arrived on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., Tuesday morning to make a push for safer personal care products.
Kardashian is holding meetings with lawmakers, aides and reporters on Tuesday to express her support for legislation that would give the U.S. Food and Drug Administration the power to investigate and prevent the sales of dangerous cosmetics. The proposed legislation is expected to suggest that facilities be registered to the FDA and could be subject to suspension if they distribute such harmful personal care products.
J. Scott Applewhite/AP
Kardashian's interest in promoting safer, nontoxic cosmetics grew after the birth of her first child in 2009, she told Capitol Hill reporters Tuesday morning.
"It all kind of snowballed," she described. Research prompted by her mother's friends led her to the Environmental Working Group, whose representatives have accompanied Kardashian during much of her visit to Washington.
"It would be nice if we didn't have to guess as much," she said. "If there were regulations to know that the products that we're using are safe."
Following a morning press event with the Environmental Working Group, the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" co-star was set to hold a closed briefing with Congressional aides at 4 p.m.
Lawmakers including Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, Rep. Frank Pallone, D-N.J. and Rep. Leonard Lance, R-N.J. banged the cosmetics safety drum during the last Congress, but the bills never reached a vote.
A congressional aide told ABC News House and Senate bills are being worked on, but the timeline is unclear.

Question: Hero cop 'gave himself the space and time'

Christian Leuprecht, a professor at Royal Military College in Kingston, Ont., who studies policing and security issues, also said Lam's actions were "textbook" examples of the latest approaches.
The result is a suspect who is now in custody and who may be able to shed light on why the devastating incident occurred, he said.
Police say Minassian, 25, of Richmond Hill, Ont., is the lone suspect in the attack. He was charged Tuesday with 10 counts of first-degree murder and 13 counts of attempted murder.
Leuprecht noted how Lam only stood up after carefully observing the suspect and determining he didn't have a gun.
Lam spoke loudly and calmly, even as the suspect encouraged the officer to shoot him. When he claimed to have a gun in his pocket, Lam replied, "I don't care," and repeatedly instructed him to "Get down."
Leuprecht said Lam seemed to go further than some others might have when he decided to approach and arrest the suspect, rather than wait for backup.
"There's an impressive moment when he takes his firearm, puts it in his holster, he goes over with his baton, and he handcuffs the individual," he said.
"I think that goes above and beyond the call of duty. He could have had a knife. He could have had a suicide belt."
However, the university professor, who is currently teaching in Australia, says if the constable had waited for backup, the situation might have escalated and had a different outcome.
"The opportunity to ensure the individual could no longer pose a chance of harm to himself or to others is what that officer jumped at," said Leuprecht.
McCormack said while additional training is a factor, he knows Lam well enough to say his personality factored in.
He described him as an intelligent, relatively young officer who is highly skilled and trained.
McCormack says the constable — who is in his 30s — positioned himself well so that he could see precisely what was unfolding before him.
"By his actions he did not perceive the threat to escalate and that is why he did not use his firearm," he said.
