animal rescue agency is asking for help as adoption rates sit at an all-time low while more dogs are coming into their care.Precious Paws Rescue says that post-pandemic, and with the rising cost of living, they are seeing an increase in dogs being given up and a decrease in people looking to adopt a furry friend.The animal rescue agency is a charity that helps re-home dogs from shelters and owner surrenders and helps owners who can’t afford pet food or emergency surgeries.The rescue’s founder says 2023 has been the most challenging year for adoption applications in their 17 years of operation.“COVID brought a huge surge in people who wanted dogs because they were at home, and it was just more feasible for them. During COVID, we had all kinds of applications, and the dogs were placed in homes fairly quickly once they were ready for adoption,” Cassandra Hauck says.“This year, we’re finding even that healthy, happy, 12-week-old puppies are not getting applications very quickly.”She says they are seeing a lot of dogs purchased during the pandemic that were not properly trained are now being given up.Hauck says they’re seeing more dogs being surrendered, and need more people looking to adopt.She notes on average, they usually have between 10 to 20 dogs at a time in foster homes, but right now, they have 25.Some of their dogs have been with foster families for more than a year.“I think that people being back working outside of the home is making it more difficult to have time for pets in their home.

short-term rentals are renewing scrutiny on the role platforms such as Airbnb play in making housing less affordable for some Canadians.Experts who spoke to Global News say there’s a clear correlation between the prominence of short-term rentals in a city and the affordability of rents and home prices, while a spokesperson for Airbnb says there’s no proof that the platform is making housing more expensive for local residents.Pushes to regulate the short-term rental market like new legislation passed this week in Quebec, however, are showing promise to experts who monitor the impact of Airbnb and others on improving housing affordability in Canada.Quebec’s new regulations and the conversation about housing affordability in Canada come as Airbnb itself is projecting a “much larger return to summer travel.”Nathan Rotman, Airbnb’s regional lead in Canada and the northeastern United States, says much of the travel demand in Canada observed by the platform comes from budget-conscious Canadians who are travelling domestically but nonetheless want to get out of the house this summer after years of pandemic disruptions.“We’re definitely seeing people return to urban centres in a way that they hadn’t at the height of the pandemic, when they were looking to reconnect with family and friends and book something much more rural and remote,” he tells Global News.Bram Gallagher is an economist with AirDNA, a third-party site that scrapes data from Airbnb and Expedia-owned competitor VRBO to track the short-term rental market for investors and the platform’s hosts.Gallagher confirms Rotman’s read on the short-term rental market: “demand is up,” he tells Global News.April, for example, saw 1.4 million short-term rental stays in Canada, up

Donald Trump found himself looking at something he had no clearance to see.Spilled on the floor of a storage room at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort and estate — a room easily accessible from the pool patio, and near a liquor supply closet and other high-traffic areas — were allegedly the contents of several boxes of documents Trump had brought to Florida from Washington at the end of his presidency.The boxes had been moved into the storage room from other parts of the club, including a ballroom and bathroom, at Trump’s direction the previous summer, according to a federal indictment that was unsealed Friday.That indictment says one of the documents on the floor was marked “SECRET//REL TO USA, FVEY” — a classification marking that indicated the information could only be viewed by intelligence agencies within the Five Eyes alliance of Canada, the U.S., the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.The aide, Walt Nauta, took two pictures of the mess with his phone and texted another employee of Trump, with the Five Eyes-only document in full view, the indictment states.“I opened the door and found this…” Nauta is quoted as having texted.“Oh no oh no,” the employee texted back.Trump’s alleged withholding of that document is one of the 37 federal criminal charges he’s now facing, accusing him of illegally retaining classified government documents after leaving the White House and then conspiring to obstruct a federal probe of the matter.Nauta, who worked for Trump at the White House and Mar-a-Lago, faces six counts in the case for allegedly helping to hide some of the sought-after materials and making false statements to investigators.The indictment presents a series of stunning examples of how Trump appears to have handled
