About 700 military members living on base at Garrison Petawawa are without heat or hot water because of the strike.
Workers who operate central heating plants at bases and installations at Petawawa and Kingston, Ont.; Esquimalt, B.C.; and Halifax, NS are on the picket lines. Also affected is the Saint-Jean Garrison located in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que.
“All bases have contingency plans in the case of strike,” said National Defence spokesperson Caroline Elie. “However as should be expected, strike activity impacts many of our operations in different ways.” But base spokesman Andrew Mills told CTV News that about 700 military members living on base at Garrison Petawawa are without heat or hot water because of the strike. In total, 21 buildings that house military personnel on site are without the amenities, he added.Article content
But she pointed out the problem was caused by the actions of National Defence managers. When National Defence proposed the workers be deemed as providing essential services during the strike they relied on a list created five years ago, Winger noted.

Davisville Village Home Drops Price By Nearly $1M in Six Months - STOREYSCompetition is heating up in the Toronto real estate market, but that doesn’t mean that prices are rising as rapidly. In fact, in just six months, a home in Toronto’s Davisville Village neighbourhood has dropped its asking price by nearly $1M, $800K of which was slashed in the last month alone. Located at 337 Cleveland Street, the new $1,999,000 price tag is in line with the property’s last sale price of $1,888,000, which it fetched after one week on the market in 2017.

Hardwood floors carry throughout the main floor, connecting the kitchen, with its all-white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and centre island, to the dining area and living room. The joint space is warm and inviting, with soaring ceilings, a gas fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling windows. It walks out to a Japanese-style garden, which offers a tiered deck, built-in benches, and a concrete fire pit. The upper level sits beneath a row of eight skylights, with strategically-placed windows opening to the floor below. The home boasts three bedrooms and four bathrooms; the pr
