Jack Nathan Health Provides Update on Filing of FY 2024–25 Financial Statements and Audit Progress
The delay was primarily due to the complexity surrounding the Asset Purchase Agreement (APA) completed on December 1, 2024, under which the Company transferred its Canadian medical clinic business and operations to Well Health Technologies Corp. As part of this transaction, access to EMR systems, supporting documents, and clinical records was also transferred, and this has resulted in extended timelines for data retrieval and audit testing.
In addition to the operational handover:
The Company underwent a change in external auditors during the fiscal year.
A significant number of JNH's employees, including finance and administrative staff, transitioned to Well Health.
A resulting delay in commencing the audit, which only began in late February 2025
Despite the late start, Jack Nathan Health made every effort to complete the audit by the filing deadline. Based on that intent, the Company did not apply for a Management Cease Trade Order (MCTO) in advance. However, given the ongoing audit, the Company was unable to meet the statutory filing deadline. As a result, the Ontario Securities Commission issued a Failure-to-File Cease Trade Order ("CTO") against the Company on June 6, 2025, under applicable securities legislation. The CTO prohibits trading in the Company's securities in all Canadian jurisdictions where reciprocal orders apply, until the required filings are completed and the order is revoked. The Company continues to work closely with its auditors to finalize the audit and expects to file well within the 90-day period required for automatic revocation of the CTO.
"This past year marked a major transformation for Jack Nathan Health. The transition of our Canadian medical business to Well Health involved an extensive operational and systems handover," said Mike Marchelletta, CEO of Jack Nathan Health. "We recognize the delay in our reporting obligations and remain fully committed to transparency. Our team is working diligently to finalize the audit, and we anticipate filing as soon as possible."

My stepmom is obsessed with reformer Pilates — here's our verdict on the at-home FOLD Reformer machine
Reformer Pilates has taken the world by storm, and it's one of the most popular low-impact forms of exercise around, capable of strengthening and toning muscles and joints from head to toe while improving core strength and posture. The universal love for Pilates is only increasing, and so are home workouts. If you thought a reformer class from your own home wasn't possible, think again. My stepmom loves reformer Pilates and has spent her fair share of hours on the mat and the reformer bed. Recently, she unboxed the Original FOLD Reformer — an at-home foldable reformer Pilates machine — to see how it fared against the studio-quality Pilates experience she's used to. Having spent the last six weeks with the reformer bed, it's immediately easy to see why it's award-winning, but is it worth the eye-watering price tag? Here's everything you need to know, and whether or not we think this reformer bed is worth the spend. Each bed comes with two-person delivery, a Pilates ball and circle, 1kg weights, jump board and foot strap, mat, grip socks and app access. The FOLD Reformer is a portable and foldable reformer bed that allows you to continue your Pilates routine at home without expensive studio costs or memberships. The bed retails for £1,899.99 and ships across Europe. Sadly, it isn't available in the U.S. right now. Now, that's a pretty big price tag, but remember, this will save you on studio classes, and you also save time on commuting to and from your local classes. The machine looks darn good. It's sleek, beautiful and stripped back, like something out of a chic South London Chelsea and Kensington studio, which also happens to be bang on trend. It's crafted from Canadian maple and vegan-friendly PU leather and measures 50 x 26.8 x 15.7 inches folded, with two color options available at checkout. You can expect a studio-level design, too, as the Original FORM Reformer comes with padded double-loop straps, adjustable head and shoulder rests, a 4-level footbar and 5 resistance springs. Each pack comes with a starter bundle, which includes a Pilates mat, circle, ball, set of 1kg dumbbells, plus grip socks and a 1-year FOLD app membership. After this initial period, membership will cost you £9.99 per month, but you'll gain access to on-demand workouts for reformer, mat and barre, plus sweet extras like meditations. Your bed also comes with two-person delivery to a room of your choice, including access via three flights of stairs if you need it. Is it worth it? This is what we think. Set-up is one of the most important things we look for when choosing a high-value product like this one, and it can make or break your experience when moving from a studio experience to home workouts. The FOLD Reformer is super easy to set up, and the video instructions are clear. The bed itself is robust and, overall, of great quality. However, you might need some help unpacking it; the machine can be folded with the bed still in place, but it's pretty heavy and the bed makes the grip awkward. During testing, we found the process just about manageable, but you might need to remove the bed itself if you struggle with the weight, and this might be a problem if you're setting up alone or have an injury. You'll also need to remove the straps and vertical poles to fold the machine, which can be a little annoying. That said, once folded, the bed is easy to move on wheels, but you'll need plenty of space to swivel it around, which might not suit small rooms — I recommend measuring up your home first to ensure you'll be able to perform exercises properly and have room to move. The video shows you how to remove parts to make the whole experience lighter and more manageable, so I also recommend checking this out and consider having a helper on hand if you're unsure if you'll be able to unpack and re-fold alone. Our bed arrived on a large wooden pallet, and it is a seriously hefty bit of kit to maneuver alone. We've been assured that this isn't the experience for the everyday customer, who will receive the box with a two-person delivery, so I can't speak for the overall delivery experience of others. My step mom is a huge fan of Reformer Pilates, so we knew exactly what we were looking for when testing this bed. The FOLD Reformer is easy to use and solid, on a par with a studio bed. The carriageway is smooth, and the springs are easy to manage. The box is also a good hack, as it doubles as a piece of equipment and handy storage. Could usability be improved? Yes. We missed an attachment for an iPhone or iPad, as it's hard to see the instructor during app workouts when using the bed. This might not be a problem if you're advanced with your Pilates practice, but more annoying for Pilates beginners. The jump board is as wide as the FOLD bed, which is smaller than a studio jump board and restricts the leg exercises you can do, including wide-leg take-offs or landings. Adjustments to the jump board size could elevate this reformer bed even more. For double-leg moves where we might use all the red springs, the carriage shot back too quickly with all the FOLD springs on, and the carriage felt too light for the exercise. We'd have also liked more spring options available. Finally, you may want to consider who you live with, as things can get a little noisy; there are ways to reduce noise by placing the extender plate under the jump board, but despite this working, it adds to the feeling of instability during use. The classes are brilliant and diverse, allowing most, if not all, Pilates lovers to find something they can enjoy. Prompts are clear, all levels are catered for and you can choose timings, as well. If you enjoy a dynamic class, just be sure to have enough space surrounding the bed to allow you a free range of motion without limitations. It's a big yes from us, and you'll save a huge amount of time and money with the Original FOLD Reformer. Although it's not exactly the same as a studio bed, it provides great quality coupled with solid design and an extensive array of classes to choose from. Pilates memberships are pretty expensive, and not everyone can put a full-size reformer bed in their homes, so this is a brilliant solution if you're keen to bring your practice home. Although the weight of the whole bed is a pro for design — a lighter bed might feel flimsy or unstable — it can make set-up a challenge, so consider this when you get yours delivered. The jump board could do with an upgrade to match the studio experience, and if you want to fold and stow your machine, you'll need to be prepared for a bit of reassembly. We would also have liked an extra red spring (there are only two), so you might be limited by the resistance available, depending on your ability. We love how versatile the classes are, allowing you to hop on for 15 minutes and still benefit from a great workout if you prefer short stints throughout the day. That's a big tick for the exercise snackers amongst us. Although we love that the bed is portable — that's the biggest draw, after all — we wouldn't want to fold and unfold before and after each use. If you do have space to keep yours assembled, it might be worth keeping it unfolded and ready to go. Follow Tom's Guide on Google News to get our up-to-date news, how-tos, and reviews in your feeds.

Carney confirms possibility of lumber quotas in trade deal with the United States
Prime Minister Mark Carney said any future trade deal with the United States could include quotas on Canadian softwood lumber exports, a sector that has been a sore point in cross-border trade relations long before U.S. President Donald Trump's trade war. 'There is normally some element of managed trade that comes out of any agreement, ' Carney said Wednesday in Hamilton, Ont., where he spoke to steelworkers to announce measures to support that industry. He said 'that can include quotas,' among a 'variety of trade factors.' Carney's comments come after B.C. Premier David Eby told Bloomberg News that the federal government had been speaking with the provinces about quotas to resolve the softwood lumber dispute as part of a larger deal. 'What the premier is saying that we are putting the option of quotas on the table as part of those discussions,' Ravi Parmar, B.C.'s Forest Minister said in an interview Wednesday. Parmar acknowledged that neither government nor industry have historically supported such quotas. 'But this is a really important time,' Parmar said. 'We are looking for the federal government to ensure that softwood lumber is just as important as steel or aluminum and auto in those conversations.' Carney said he had been in close contact with Eby about the softwood file, adding that resolving the conflict is a 'top priority' as the United States prepares to double various duties to 34.45 per cent. Canada and the United States have been without a softwood lumber agreement since 2015, and Eby has previously said that resolving the dispute could 'build momentum' for a larger, more comprehensive trade deal. Trump's latest threat is to impose 35 per cent tariffs by Aug. 1 on Canadian goods currently not compliant with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Carney said he agreed with Eby's idea of resolving the softwood lumber dispute as part of a larger trade deal, but added that both issues are unfolding along different times lines. British Columbia accounts for about 40 per cent of Canada's softwood lumber exports to the United States, according to the BC Lumber Trade Council, but the industry has been struggling, and artificial export limits could further damage it. Kurt Niquidet, president of the B.C. Lumber Trade Council, said in a written statement that the industry represents a 'cornerstone' of B.C.'s forest economy, and a 'vital part' of Canada's trading relationship with the U.S. 'Resolving this long-standing dispute is essential to protecting jobs, supporting communities, and ensuring a stable, competitive future for our forest sector.' That statement did not directly comment on the quota proposal. — with files from David Baxter This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 16, 2025. Error!

‘This is horrifying': Massive increase in reports of violence against Halton paramedics in Milton, Oakville, Halton Hills, Burlington
More than 500 incidents of violence against Halton's paramedics have been reported since 2022. The External Violence Against Paramedics report was presented to Halton Regional Council on July 9. The report detailed a massive increase in violent incidents reported against paramedics since 2022, the outline of a new campaign to combat those incidents, and an explanation of why officials believe this is happening. According to the report, it's common for paramedics to encounter incidents of violence, such as aggressive behaviour, verbal abuse — including racist and homophobic comments — physical assault and sexual harassment. 'This is horrifying. Nobody deserves to be treated this way,' said Burlington Mayor Marianne Meed Ward. 'So sorry that you are experiencing this — it's absolutely unacceptable.' In 2022, there were a total of 10 incidents of violence reported against paramedics. In 2024, there were 254. A significant reason for that increase was a change in the way these incidents were reported. Prior to December 2022, if a paramedic experienced violence they needed to fill out a workplace injury report which officials described as cumbersome. The new External Violence Against Paramedics (EVAP) system, used to track incidents of violence, is far more streamlined and has resulted in much more reporting. Greg Sage, chief of paramedic services at Halton Region, said the numbers also reflect a societal change. 'I think the decline in civility certainly has something to do with what we're seeing. We all see it in our daily lives — people go from zero to 100 for no reason at all,' said Sage. The problem is not unique to Halton. The Paramedic Chiefs of Canada, an advocacy group for paramedics, released a position statement on the issue stating that 75 per cent of Canadian paramedics have experienced violence on the job. When paramedics encounter inappropriate behaviour, they have several actions they can take, including leaving the scene and calling for police assistance. Part of the problem in responding to these incidences is staff often don't wish to pursue police action. Sage said there is a persistent belief that this is just part of the job. In response to the violence, Halton paramedics will be put through new conflict avoidance strategy training this year. A communications campaign is also being launched to promote a message that violence towards paramedics will not be tolerated. Sage said reports of violence are so common he was reading one right before he presented at the regional council meeting. 'These are coming in on a daily basis, and I would expect that after this campaign and after we do the training, we'll probably see another uptick in reporting as awareness rises with our team,' said Sage. 'Then I hope that through our efforts, we can drive that number back down eventually.' Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request. There was a problem with the recaptcha.
