MONTREAL, April 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CN (TSX: CNR) (NYSE: CNI) today announced that it will donate $500,000 to support two organizations in Winnipeg near the Company’s Campus. The funding will advance programs that help individuals, families as well as Indigenous youth in the Winnipeg area who are currently experiencing or at risk of homelessness. At CN, safety is a core value, and that commitment extends beyond the railway to the communities where CN railroaders live and work. These donations are part of CN’s broader commitment, through its Railroaders for Change initiative, to support the safety and well-being of its neighbours, particularly those at risk of homelessness. “Addressing the growing challenge of homelessness requires collaboration, compassion, and long-term commitment. We are proud to support organizations that are making a meaningful difference for individuals, families and Indigenous youth at risk of homelessness in Winnipeg. At CN, our commitment to safety extends beyond our tracks and into the communities we serve, by helping create safer, more supportive pathways to housing and stability.” Mark Grubbs, Vice-President – Safety and Environment, CN Supporting Homelessness Prevention in the CommunityThe donation will support two local organizations; Ma Mawi Wi Chi Itata Centre and West Central Women’s Resource Centre (WCWRC) to expand programs and services that deliver both immediate relief and long-term stability for individuals at risk of homelessness. Each organization will receive a grant of $250,000 to help their clients remain safely housed, access critical resources, support, and cultural connections. It will also help clients avoid relying on overcrowded emergency shelters. Together, these initiatives are expected to reach hundreds of individuals in low-income communities who are at risk of losing access to safe and stable housing. “Ma Mawi Wi Chi Itata Centre extends its sincere gratitude to CN for their generous $250,000 investment in the Yellow Shawl Program. This contribution significantly enhances our capacity to support Indigenous youth transitioning out of care by ensuring access to safe housing, life skills development, and culturally grounded supports that foster reconnection to identity, community, and belonging. This funding also strengthens our ability to support 2Spirit youth aging out of care by creating safe, inclusive, and affirming spaces rooted in cultural understanding. Within these environments, youth are supported to explore and embrace their identities while feeling valued, respected, and connected. CN’s investment is helping to build stability, expand opportunity, and establish a strong foundation for Indigenous youth as they move forward into adulthood with confidence and support.” Tammy Cristensen, Executive Director, Ma Mawi Wi Chi Itata Centre “We are incredibly grateful for the support of CN to contribute to our work to address homelessness in Winnipeg. With this investment, we will be able to provide critical supports to women and gender-diverse people from becoming homeless. We can enhance our service delivery through the development of a coordinated case management tool, and we can work at a system level to close gaps that cause people to experience homelessness. Together this partnership will allow us to take meaningful steps to address gendered homelessness in Winnipeg.” Lorie English, Executive Director, West Central Women’s Resource Centre Across its network, CN and its railroaders are supporting organizations that help individuals and families regain stability and build independent futures. These initial donations are a first step in CN deepening its commitment to building safer, stronger communities, where more people have the support they need to move forward.

QUEBEC — The Quebec Liberals would maintain use of the notwithstanding clause to shield the bulk of Bill 96 overhauling the French language charter from court challenges, party leader Charles Milliard said Thursday. But he said he would also try to amend the law to eliminate the red tape it imposes on small and medium-sized companies in addition to dropping another clause forcing immigrants who have been in Quebec for six months to receive services in French. “I would be in favour of conserving it (the clause) if I can make the changes I want,” Milliard said at a morning news conference at the legislature. “What I am saying is that I want to change two significant elements of Bill 96 and I am in favour of the rest. “The Liberal party historically has made use of the notwithstanding clause. We are not opposed to this. I think it’s an important tool. I think it has been used too often pre-emptively, but the protection of the French language is essential to the Liberal party. “It is essential for all Quebecers including those from cultural communities.” It is a shift for Milliard, who said during the two leadership races he participated in that he would like to amend Bill 96, which was adopted by the Coalition Avenir Québec government in 2022. But he has not elaborated on how he would go about amending the law or whether he would keep using the clause, which the CAQ government has also used to shield its secularism law, Bill 21, from court challenges. Both laws are being contested in the courts. The Liberals voted against both pieces of legislation at the time they were adopted. Milliard said he has not been clearer in the past because he was not sure about the legal sequence to follow to amend a bill protected by the clause. Even though many minority communities oppose both laws, Milliard argued they are also in favour of protecting French. “I am for the main objectives of Bill 96, which is to protect French,” Milliard said. “And I’ve been talking to a lot of anglophones and allophones about that. “They’re all about protecting and promoting French even if my opponents say the opposite. It doesn’t mean that if you want to change something on 96 that you’re against French.” On hand for the news conference, Westmount—Saint-Louis Liberal MNA Jennifer Maccarone said Milliard’s views on use of the clause were already known to the caucus. “I won’t make a comment that is different from our leader,” Maccarone said. “I am at ease with Charles’s position.” pauthier@postmedia.com Editor’s Picks Fréchette’s Bill 101 plan may set stage for clash with English school boards Trump administration targets Quebec streaming law Another poll puts Quebec Liberals ahead of Parti Québécois Christine Fréchette sworn in as Quebec premier, pledges to defend language and identity The post Milliard would renew the notwithstanding clause to shield Quebec’s Bill 96, he says appeared first on Montreal Gazette.
