CFL Tells Canadian Government to 'Butt Out' in Quest to Institute Gambling Ad Ban
Canada's parliament is considering a bill that would limit or potentially ban gambling ads. The commissioner of the Canadian Football League sent a letter to his country's parliament essentially telling it to butt out.
The league sent the following letter to the senate’s standing committee on transport and communications:
Dear Mr. Wilson:
On behalf of the Canadian Football League (CFL), I want to express my gratitude to the Standing Senate Committee on Transport and Communications for its invitation to participate in itsexamination of Bill S-269, the National Framework on Advertising for Sports Betting Act.
Unfortunately, the committee’s hearings coincide with the kickoff of our league’s regular season, which requires me to attend several games across the country to meet with our clubs, their partners, and our fans. It is one of our busiest times of the year, along with Grey Cup, of course. My apologies for not being able to participate in person.
However, given the importance of this issue and our respect for your role, I am sharing this written submission on behalf of the CFL with you. I trust you will find it helpful in your work.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter, your contributions to the legislative process, and your service o Canada.
Yours in Football,
Randy Ambrosie
Commissioner

Joe Biden Crisis
Prominent House Dems Want Biden to Exit: Biden Gains in Odds With Move to +350
More than a handful of House Democratic ranking members told House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries in a Sunday call that President Joe Biden needs to step aside from the 2024 campaign, according to sources familiar with the call.
Jeffries held the call to take the temperature of ranking members after Biden’s dismal debate performance last month. The call, held before lawmakers return to Washington this week, was filled with deep concern about potential damage to the Democratic ticket and how it imperils the party’s chances to win back the House majority.
Jeffries did not share with his colleagues where he stands on the question of whether Biden should continue running for reelection, a source who was on the call told CNN.

France Election Shocker
If you had the far right to win in France this weekend, sorry.
France's snap legislative elections on Sunday showed the leftist New Popular Front leading both Macron's ruling party and the right-wing National Rally but falling short of an absolute majority, according to Ipsos Talan projections. One of the coalition's leaders, Jean-Luc Mélenchon of the far-left France Unbowed party, urged Macron to invite them to form a government, saying the alliance “is ready to govern". Read our liveblog to see how all the day's events unfolded.
Voters delivered a major setback for Marine Le Pen's nationalist, eurosceptic National Rally (RN), which opinion polls had predicted would win the second-round ballot but ended up in the third spot, according to pollsters' projections.

Over $170 Billion Wiped Off Cryptocurrencies as Market Tanks on Mt. Gox Bitcoin Payout Fears
Bitcoin’s price fell under $55,000 for the first time since February. It recovered a bit on Saturday, climbing above the $58,000 mark.
At one point in time, the entire cryptocurrency market shed more than $170 billion in combined market capitalization in the last 24 hours.
On Friday, the trustee for the Mt. Gox bankruptcy estate said it had begun making repayments in bitcoin and bitcoin cash to some of the creditors.
The trustee for the Mt. Gox bankruptcy estate, Nobuaki Kobayashi, says he is still working to ensure repayments “can be made safely and securely,” Kobayashi wrote, urging “eligible rehabilitation creditors to wait for a while.”
Mt. Gox was one the leading crypto exchange, handling over 70% of bitcoin transactions in the early years. Customers have waited nearly ten years for payments following a 2014 hacking that led the cryptocurrency exchange into bankruptcy. At one point it handled nearly 70% of all bitcoin transactions.
News of the repayments added selling pressure on bitcoin and the broader crypto market after Mt. Gox announced last month.
