NEW YORK — The Kardashian family will continue living life on TV for the next three years.

The E! Entertainment network said Tuesday it had reached a deal with its most bankable franchise to make three more seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Terms were not disclosed.

The sixth season of the show averaged 3 million viewers on Sunday nights, the cable networks’ top series. Five of the 10 most-watched shows in the network’s history, in fact, involved the Kardashians. The 18-episode seventh season begins on May 20.

E! said the entire family is covered by the deal: Kim, Kourtney and Rob Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian Odom, and Bruce, Kris, Kendall and Kylie Jenner. E! will continue to have the first crack at any spinoff projects.

E! has turned the Kardashians into a mini-empire, with spinoff series like Kourtney and Kim Take New York and Khloe and Lamar. Although E! retains the first right to these spinoffs, Tuesday’s deal does not specify how many more will be made.

The network would also not say whether musician Kanye West would be included in the series. West and Kim Kardashian have been seen together lately amid reports that they are a new couple.

Canadian manufacturers look to North

Aaron Epp 4 minute read 7:58 PM CDT

Canadian manufacturers should be “big players” in building major projects in Canada, the leader of an advocacy group representing small- and medium-sized sector members said Monday evening at a national policy conference in Winnipeg.

Catherine Swift, president of the Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers and Businesses of Canada, spoke during the opening panel at the conference, organized by the Frontier Centre for Public Policy, a think tank headquartered in the Manitoba capital.

The conference, which continued throughout the day on Tuesday, brought together leaders and experts from defence, Indigenous communities, energy, transportation, business and public policy to explore what it would take to move northern strategic utility corridors from proposal to construction.

“The fact that we’ve struggled as a country with building major projects such as utility corridors in the North has been particularly punitive to manufacturing because, naturally, they should be big players in any such project,” said Swift, who was a senior economist at TD Bank before serving as chief executive at the Canadian Federation of Independent Business from 1987 to 2012.

Federal Court awards OCN $27M, 62 years after construction of hydro dam

Nicole Buffie 4 minute read 6:34 PM CDT

The Federal Court has ordered Ottawa pay Opaskwayak Cree Nation $27 million over damages suffered due to the construction of the Grand Rapids hydro dam in the 1960s.

In a decision dated Sept. 3, Federal Court Justice Sébastien Grammond says the federal government had a fiduciary duty to protect the community from the impacts of the dam.

“When the Crown exercises a discretionary power over an Indigenous interest, it has a fiduciary duty and it must exercise the discretion in the best interests of the Indigenous group,” the ruling said. “Canada breached its fiduciary duty to OCN because it approved the (project) without ensuring that the impacts of the Grand Rapids dam on OCN’s traditional way of life were mitigated or compensated.”

The First Nation took the federal government to court in February over impacts on the community after the dam, located about 145 kilometres southeast of Opaskwayak Cree Nation, was installed on the Saskatchewan River in 1964. The case was heard over 14 days in a judge-alone trial in Winnipeg.

Manitoba’s new plan to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050 is a lot of things. It’s detailed. It’s certainly comprehensive in scope. But when it is all said and done, it is still very much a work in progress.

MPI looks into motorcycle safety

Morgan Modjeski 4 minute read 7:30 PM CDT

Manitoba Public Insurance is probing how to make regional roads safer for motorcyclists.

The public insurer is seeking feedback about restrictions on powerful bikes for new riders, mandatory training for older motorcyclists and limiting registrations to drivers who have a motorcycle licence (Class 6).

The Coalition of Manitoba Motorcycle Groups, which is set to gather at its regular meeting in Winnipeg Wednesday, will weigh in.

President Mary Johnson said some of the questions — such as those that relate to restricting new riders to bikes with engines under 500 cubic centimetres — are non-starters.
