Independiente

Fundado: 1974

Propiedad

Global News es la división de noticias de Global Television Network, que se lanzó en el sur de Ontario en 1974. Es propiedad de Corus Entertainment Inc., una compañía de medios canadiense que cotiza en bolsa en la que aproximadamente el 80% del control de votación está en manos de la familia del difunto J.R. (Jim) Shaw. Corus se separó de Shaw Communications en 1999 y absorbió los activos de Global TV a través de Shaw Media en 2016.

Financiación

Financiado comercialmente a través de la televisión y la publicidad digital y los ingresos de transporte / suscripción. Corus se ha enfrentado a la presión financiera en los últimos años, pero Global News sigue siendo una operación comercial privada respaldada por la publicidad.

Afiliación y postura

Global News es de propiedad privada / comercial a través de Corus Entertainment (control de la familia Shaw) sin propiedad de partido o estado, lo que lo hace INDEPENDENTE. Su cobertura de noticias nacionales es ampliamente convencional y centrista, responsable ante una corporación que cotiza en bolsa en lugar de ante un gobierno o partido político.

Sentencing hearing today for women who killed foster son and abused his sibling

Two women from Burlington, Ontario, Becky Hamber and Brandy Cooney, are undergoing a sentencing hearing after being convicted of first-degree murder and other charges related to the abuse and death of two Indigenous boys in their care. The pair were found guilty in early May 2026 of killing a 12-year-old boy they were attempting to adopt and of unlawfully confining and abusing his younger sibling. The older boy, who was severely underweight, died in the basement of their home in 2022. His younger brother, who survived, was removed by child welfare services and testified during the trial about enduring years of physical and emotional abuse, including being locked in his room for extended periods and denied food. Court documents revealed the boy described being forced to wear a wetsuit secured with zip ties, causing severe injuries to his feet. In his written ruling, Justice Clayton Conlan stated that Hamber and Cooney harbored hatred and resentment toward the children for not meeting their expectations. The defendants' legal team argued that they did not intend to harm the children, who they claimed had behavioral challenges.

‘Unpredictable’ South Saskatchewan River prompts warning in Saskatoon

A flood warning has been issued for the South Saskatchewan River in Saskatoon due to increased water flow caused by heavy rainfall in Alberta. The Saskatchewan Water Security Agency announced plans to increase outflows from the Gardiner Dam and operate the spillway at Lake Diefenbaker from July 3 to July 25. These measures are expected to raise water levels and increase the speed of the river from downstream of the dam to Saskatoon. As a result, the city has warned against recreational activities like fishing, swimming, and boating, citing dangerous conditions including unpredictable currents, unstable riverbeds, and hidden hazards such as floating debris and broken concrete. Public boat launches and river access points are being closed, while emergency procedures for assisting individuals in distress have been outlined. Despite these risks, the city assures that water services will remain unaffected and that bridges and construction projects are not expected to face significant challenges.

Norovirus outbreak on Princess cruise affects more than 120 passengers

A norovirus outbreak affected over 120 passengers and crew members aboard the Ruby Princess cruise ship during a voyage from June 12 to July 2 from San Francisco to Canada and Alaska, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC reported that 102 passengers and 23 crew members became ill. In response, Princess Cruises implemented increased cleaning and disinfection measures as part of its outbreak prevention plan. The Vessel Sanitation Program (VSP), managed by the CDC, is monitoring the situation and reviewing the ship's sanitation procedures. This follows several other norovirus outbreaks on cruise ships in 2026, including incidents involving the Lindblad Expeditions' National Geographic Sea Bird and the Caribbean Princess. Norovirus is highly contagious and spreads easily in confined spaces like cruise ships.

Meet Neil, the 1-ton seal going viral for destroying cars in Australia

The article discusses Neil, a 1-ton elephant seal in Tasmania, Australia, who has become a viral sensation due to his destructive behavior toward local infrastructure. Weighing as much as a small car, Neil has caused damage to traffic bollards, signs, and fences during his annual land visit. His actions have led to disruptions in local communities, with some viewing him as an 'anti-authoritarian hero' on social media platforms like TikTok. Experts explain that Neil's behavior is typical for juvenile males preparing for dominance displays, though officials express concerns about the risks of increased human interaction and the potential negative impact of his growing online fame.

Los atletas olímpicos intercambian esquís y patines por sombreros y botas en el desfile de Calgary Stampede

Dos atletas de los Juegos Olímpicos de Invierno, Mikael Kingsbury y Courtney Sarault, participan en el desfile Calgary Stampede, intercambiando su equipo deportivo por trajes de estilo occidental. El evento marca el comienzo de 10 días de celebraciones de temática occidental en Calgary. Kingsbury, un magnate de esquí de Quebec, admite que es un jinete novato pero está ansioso por aprender. Sarault, una patinadora de velocidad de pista corta de New Brunswick, expresó entusiasmo por su atuendo de temática occidental. El Calgary Stampede, que se extiende hasta el 12 de julio, contribuye significativamente a la economía local, generando aproximadamente $ 389 millones anuales para Alberta, y la mayor parte de ese beneficio se concentra en Calgary. El evento atrae a más de un millón de visitantes anuales, aunque no se establecen objetivos de asistencia debido a factores incontrolables como el clima en sí mismo y la economía en general.

Calgary man sentenced for Glenmore Trail crash, 2nd impaired driving collision

A 20-year-old Calgary man named Kane Anignostis Burrows has been sentenced to four and a half years in federal prison for a fatal crash along Glenmore Trail in December 2024. He also received six months for a second crash in August 2025, during which he damaged seven parked vehicles. Both incidents involved Burrows driving a stolen BMW, impaired by drugs and alcohol, at speeds exceeding the limit. In the first crash, he killed his best friend, Zachary Legault, and injured another friend. The court noted his history of heavy alcohol consumption starting at age 13, including episodes of blacking out. Justice Shane Parker criticized Burrows' behavior, calling his actions 'a bullet to the head for anyone near a roadway.' Burrows apologized in court but referred to the fatal crash as 'an accident,' which the judge strongly disagreed with. He is expected to serve just under four more years after accounting for time already served.

At least 2 tornadoes reported in Saskatchewan: Environment Canada

On July 3, 2026, at least two tornadoes were reported in Saskatchewan, Canada, following a series of thunderstorms. Environment Canada confirmed reports of tornadoes near Kindersley and Denzil, with the first occurring around 3:30 p.m. and the second around 5:30 p.m. Meteorologist Brad Vrolijk described the storms as having distinct patterns, with one group moving quickly and another lingering in the Kindersley area. While there were no confirmed damages from the potential tornado near Coleville, video footage suggested a tornado touched down. In Denzil, reports included golf ball-sized hail and storm damage. The Northern Tornadoes Project will investigate both sites to verify the tornadoes in the coming days.

West Kelowna council officially opposes overhead BC Hydro transmission lines

The West Kelowna city council has unanimously opposed BC Hydro's plan to construct overhead transmission lines as part of a new power infrastructure project, preferring an underground installation. The decision follows growing concerns from residents, businesses, and helicopter operators about the visual and operational impacts of overhead lines, including potential interference with aerial operations and the aesthetic disruption of the community. These concerns were heightened by recent wildfires in the region, during which helicopters played a critical role in firefighting. City officials note that while BC Hydro has engaged in discussions with affected parties, the council aims to formally communicate its stance to both the utility and regulatory authorities, emphasizing the desire to preserve the community's quality of life.

McAllister de vuelta en el groove de CFL con grandes ganancias

Tyreik McAllister, un especialista en devoluciones para los Calgary Stampeders, ha vuelto a la forma con dos touchdowns de devolución consecutivos en la Liga Canadiense de Fútbol (CFL). El jugador de 28 años llegó a los titulares con una devolución de 90 yardas en un juego reciente contra los BC Lions, contribuyendo significativamente a la primera victoria de Calgary en la temporada. McAllister jugó anteriormente para los Hamilton Tiger-Cats en 2023, donde sobresalió en yardas para todo uso y promedios de devoluciones de patadas. Después de una temporada con los Las Vegas Raiders de la NFL y los Columbus Aviators de la United Football League, volvió a firmar con los Stampeders, que habían luchado con la yarda de devolución la temporada anterior. Su desempeño ha impresionado al entrenador en jefe de los Stampeders, Dave Dickenson, quien notó el fuerte regreso de McAllister a la forma a pesar de jugar tiempo limitado en ligas recientes.
