Manitoba’s premier is urging people in the province to heed wildfire evacuation orders, after a deadly incident Wednesday in Lac du Bonnet, northeast of Winnipeg. Two people were killed after getting trapped by a blaze. More than 20 fires are burning across Manitoba right now, fuelled by hot and dry conditions.

And: The Bloc Québécois is going to court over the election result in the riding of Terrebonne, near Montreal. The Liberals won the seat over the Bloc by one vote after a judicial recount. But an Elections Canada error led to the rejection of a local woman’s mail-in ballot. She says she voted for the Bloc.

Also: Looking back on a national tragedy. 25 years ago, water tainted with E. coli killed seven people in the town of Walkerton, Ontario. The crisis led to standards in testing, but experts warn there is still more work to do.
