A group of Prince Edward Islanders is frustrated the province will not respond to their requests to be reimbursed for pre-paid funerals their relatives arranged, in a case where the funeral director is currently being tried for fraud.
In today's Morning Brief, Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s government expects to bring in more than $2 billion through a carbon tax on industrial emitters over the next eight years, CBC News has learned.
Alleged victims of Lowell Oakes and Dawson Funeral Home says they deserve compensation from the province to replace their lost funds, since legislation they expected to protect them dates back to the 1980s.
The owner of Dawson Funeral Home has been ordered to pay back thousands of dollars in money received for pre-arranged funerals, and the Crapaud-based business faces a growing number of small-claims suits.
