Hyundai Recalls More Than 4,000 Vehicles Due to Seatbelt Issue
Hyundai has issued a recall for 4,203 units of its 2026 Palisade model in Canada due to a seatbelt wiring issue that could potentially lead to an increased risk of injury. The wiring for the third-row driver’s side seat belt buckle in certain vehicles could become damaged when the buckle is pulled, says the recall notice published in Transport Canada’s Motor Vehicle Safety Recalls Database and last updated on April 2. “As a result, the seat belt status indicator in the instrument panel may incorrectly show that a seat belt is buckled when it’s not,” the notice says. Hyundai says a seat belt status indicator that does not work correctly “could create confusion,” and not wearing a seat belt increases the risk of injury in a crash....

Alberta Announces $143 Million for 476 Classroom ‘Complexity Teams’
Alberta says it will provide nearly 500 elementary schools across the province with “complexity teams” to meet the academic and behavioural needs of students.

Premier François Legault lauded Montreal as the bank’s potential home as he participated in an event alongside Montreal Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada and National Bank president Laurent Ferreira.
