Canada’s embattled PM Justin Trudeau announces he will step down

The announcement that Justin Trudeau will step down as leader of Canada's ruling Liberal Party on Monday will serve as the catalyst for a bid to succeed him as prime minister. He was unable to "be the leader during the next elections due to internal battles," Trudeau added, later pointing to divisiveness both domestically and internationally. "I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister, after the party selects its next leader through a robust, nationwide competitive process," Trudeau stated to reporters in Ottawa. "Last night, I asked the president of the Liberal Party to begin that process." With the Liberals trailing the opposition Conservative Party in surveys and internal disputes blazing over his treatment of President-elect Donald Trump, the troubled prime minister's exit ...

Less than 0.1% of U.S. minors take gender-affirming medication, study finds

According to a research released Monday in the country's leading pediatric medical journal, transition-related pharmaceuticals are rarely administered to young people, raising concerns among policymakers worldwide about whether or not they should be made available to minors. The findings published in JAMA Pediatrics show that less than 0.1% of transgender or gender-diverse teenagers with private insurance in the US are administered gender-affirming medications or puberty blockers. In addition, no transgender kids under the age of 12 were provided gender-affirming medications, according to the research paper, which examined the private insurance claims for over 5.1 million young patients, aged 8 to 17, between 2018 and 2022. According to the Census Bureau, 65% of the nation was covered by p...

Congress gathers to certify Donald Trump’s win four years after he inspired a riot

WASHINGTON — Exactly four years after Donald Trump incited a mob that stormed the Capitol in an unsuccessful attempt to thwart the certification of his 2020 election loss and maintain his hold on power, Congress is convening Monday amidst a citywide declaration of snow emergency to certify his 2024 victory. Despite Trump's failure to provide any proof that the election was invalid, 147 Republicans voted four years ago to overturn the outcome and discount electors for President Joe Biden. Democrats do not intend to retaliate in kind this time. They plan to restore January 6 to its traditional status as a dull and routine ceremony where the president-elect is sworn in without any fanfare. For live coverage, follow along. Republicans applauded when House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y...

Nikki Glaser praised as Golden Globes host

One of Hollywood's most unappreciated jobs is hosting award presentations, but comedian Nikki Glaser seemed to hit all the right notes with Golden Globes viewers.

Critics and fans praised Glaser's roasting abilities and witty quips throughout the evening, even though ratings have not yet been made public.

The evening stood in sharp contrast to the 2024 show, when presenter Jo Koy's performance was deemed bad by many after many of his...

The best treatments for keratosis pilaris in 2025, according to dermatologists

You're not alone if you suffer from rough, bumpy skin due to keratosis pilaris: The Cleveland Clinic estimates that 40% of adults and 50% to 80% of teenagers will experience the skin disease at some point in their lives. Keratosis pilaris, commonly known as KP, is so prevalent that the majority of dermatologists do not view it as a disease or condition at all. Dr. Michael Cameron, a board-certified dermatologist and the founder of Cameron Dermatology in New York City, says he prefers to think of it as more of a skin variation. Although keratosis pilaris is a chronic and incurable condition, some over-the-counter remedies can help with roughness and bumps, according to specialists. I discussed the causes of keratosis pilaris and the components to seek for when treating its symptoms with der...

Vail stock struggles as strike leads to long lines at Park City Mountain

Shares of Vail Resorts have fallen in recent weeks as one of the most popular skiing locations in America has been rocked by a labor conflict. Late last month, the Park City Professional Ski Patrol Association, a union that represents patrollers at the eponymous Utah mountain, went on strike. Customers on pricey ski vacations have taken to social media to complain about lengthy lineups, closures, and delays as a result of the labor stoppage. The consolidation of America's ski resorts under Vail and a few other firms has come to light as a result of this circumstance. During the collapse at Park City, which is regarded as the largest U.S. mountain by lift access and has a rich history that includes hosting the 2002 Winter Olympics, Vail's association with a prominent private equity group ha...
