Alberta pipeline timeline, Congo Ebola, Drake spectacle, and more

A clear message from the Carney government today — it’s serious about a west coast pipeline. That move was welcomed in Alberta, but not so much by environmentalists. The Prime Minister and Alberta's Premier announced a firm timeline for a pipeline while agreeing on a key piece of the puzzle — industrial carbon pricing. But there's still a long road ahead, before any oil flows.

And: The World Health Organization is trying to contain a massive new outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus. In the Democratic Republic of Congo, at least 65 people have already died. There are close to 250 suspected cases.

Also: It was part spectacle, part diss. Canadian rapper Drake has dropped three new albums at once. Drake’s feud with Kendrick Lamar is part of rap history, and Drake isn’t leaving it in the past. Toronto was turned into a release party last night, with thousands of people participating.
