  "account": "Carney is currently in Dublin, meeting with European leaders ahead of upcoming Asia summits. Industry Minister Mélanie Joly is set to meet with Stellantis, its union representing over 9,000 Canadian workers, and representatives from the Ontario government in Toronto. The meeting comes after Stellantis sold its Brampton, Ontario assembly plant to Canadian armoured vehicle manufacturer Roshel. British Columbia is experiencing severe flooding on its south coast, with evacuation orders, flood warnings, and the shutdown of a water treatment plant. The Village of Pemberton has ordered the evacuation of properties on Airport Road, while the Lilʼwat Nation has issued an evacuation order and alert along the Lillooet River corridor to Lillooet Lake. A coroner's inquest is set to begin for Jamal Francique, who was shot in the head by police in Mississauga, Ontario, in 2019. Francique's widow is now urging Parliament to reconsider a new bill that would ban medically assisted death for individuals with a sole underlying condition of mental illness.",
