Trudeau's Emergency Powers Are Approved By Canada's Parliament.

On Monday, Canada's parliament approved Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's decision to employ rarely-used emergency powers to put a stop to pandemic-related protests that have shut down Ottawa's streets for more than three weeks.

The Emergencies Act was passed by a vote of 185 to 151 in parliament, with the left-leaning New Democrats supporting the minority Liberal administration.

Some opposition MPs have called Trudeau's extraordinary measures, which he unveiled a week ago, unnecessary and an abuse of power.

Over the weekend, Canadian police in Ottawa were able to restore order. Initially, the demonstrators intended to put a halt to cross-border COVID-19 vaccine mandates for truck drivers, but the occupation morphed into a larger anti-Trudeau rally. Protesters shut down the busiest land crossing between the two countries.

Trudeau told reporters earlier on Monday that his government still required temporary emergency powers, citing "serious concerns" about threats in the coming days. "This state of emergency will not be lifted anytime soon. There are still serious concerns about the future days "Trudeau stated the following.

Trudeau also urged people to band together, adding, "We don't know when this pandemic will stop, but it doesn't mean we can't begin to heal as a nation."

Trudeau is accused of abusing his powers by some members of the main opposition Conservative Party. Dean Allison, a legislator, condemned the use of "authoritarian military-style techniques" against the demonstrators.

Cinnamon is a spice used by many different cultures as a seasoning for savory and sweet foods. There are different varieties of cinnamon. A new study suggests that cinnamon might offer a helping hand in fighting against infection. Antibiotics are life-saving drugs which when used properly can fight bacterial infections and save lives by killing bacteria. Streptococcus, E.coli and Staphylococcus are some common infection causing bacteria. Since their first use, antibiotics have saved countless lives. Now, however, the tide is turning. Over countless generations, a growing number of bacterial species have built up resistance to antibiotics. This means that infections that were once easy to treat are now impervious to antibiotics. It is a growing global problem. World Health Organization said "this is one of the biggest threats to global health, food security, and development today."

How to make him committed to you

What does it take to get a man to truly commit and want only you? What men desire most is a woman who inspires them to be their best self. Being that woman is a much different mindset than what most women typically do these days. So what’s the major error that trips women up? It’s their focus. Instead of focusing on the feelings and experience they create for the man, the woman fixates on her own wants, her own worries, her own fears. And amidst this completely self-absorbed mindset consumed by what she wants, it’s no wonder that she’s unable to hook a man’s interest in a significant way, one that goes beyond just hooking up. Sure, that woman might cook him dinners, perform in bed, and tell him how much she likes him, but none of that stuff penetrates a man’s psychology on a deep and meaningful level. Forget about just getting commitment. When you really understand and master the art of tapping into the deep parts of a man’s psyche, he will want to move mount

Following a stalemate in negotiations with the EU, the UK has decided to put plans for post-Brexit checks on some goods entering Northern Ireland on hold indefinitely. As part of political squabbling dubbed "the sausage wars," grace periods aimed to smooth the transition into new trading arrangements and inspections on the island of Ireland have twice been extended. David Frost, who is coordinating negotiations with the EU to update the contentious Northern Ireland protocol, announced a new extension on Monday evening, with no new timeframe set for the talks' conclusion. Every three or six months, the UK wants to "create space for negotiations to place without deadlines looming," according to a government source. They also stated that they had communicated their decision to the EU in a transparent manner. Setting a new deadline so soon after the current grace periods expire in October, according to the source, "doesn't assist develop a creative climate
