Flight cancellations grow as WestJet mechanics hit picket lines
On one of Canada's busiest long weekends, thousands of travellers find themselves stranded due to a mechanics' strike at WestJet.

This turn of events comes as a surprise, as the Canadian federal government had imposed binding arbitration in an attempt to prevent the work stoppage. WestJet claims that the union walked away from a deal that would have made the maintenance engineers the highest paid in Canada. The government is now intervening, meeting with both sides to seek a resolution. Sean O'Shea has that story.

Oil prices to stay steady as China demand woes offset Mideast risks
(Reuters) -Oil prices will not change much in the second half of 2024 as concerns around demand from China and prospects of higher supply from key producers counter risks from geopolitical tensions, a Reuters poll indicated on Friday. A poll of 44 analysts and economists surveyed by Reuters in the last two weeks forecast the global benchmark, Brent crude , would average $83.93 per barrel in 2024, just shy of the $84.01 consensus in the previous month's poll. Brent crude futures have averaged $83.4 thus far in 2024, after brief spikes to as high as $92.18, driven by supply risks due to the conflict in the Middle East.
