EverGen Infrastructure Reports Q1 2025 Results
Financial Highlights for Q1 2025:
Revenues of $1.9 million for Q1 2025 decreased 41% compared to the same period last year, primarily driven by reduced volumes (due to unexpected operating disturbances) resulting in lower tip fee revenue at the Company's organic waste and composting facilities. These declines were partially offset by increased RNG production and associated revenues from FVB and GrowTEC, as well as tip fee increases at the Company's composting facilities.
Net loss of $1.2 million for Q1 2025 improved by 11% compared to the same period last year, primarily due to lower direct operating costs, depreciation and amortization expense, and finance costs, partially offset by lower revenues and a decrease in insurance proceeds.
Adjusted EBITDA of $0.5 million for Q1 2025 decreased by $0.2 million compared to the same period last year, primarily due to reduced revenues and lower insurance proceeds, partially offset by a decrease in direct operating costs and an increase in non-recurring general and administrative expenses.
RNG production reached a new quarterly record in Q1 2025, driven by the continued ramp-up and stabilization of the FVB RNG expansion project. The FVB facility achieved monthly RNG production record exceeding 12,000 gigajoules (GJs) in both March and April 2025, surpassing the previous high of 11,186 GJs in September 2024. A daily production record of 640 GJs was also set in October 2024.

Short provincial funding, Amherstburg mulls park plans
After missing out on provincial funding, the Town of Amherstburg will look at potentially scaling back plans for a redeveloped Centennial Park. A report headed to council on July 14 outlines five options to develop the park under new cost constraints. The news was 'upsetting' to Molly Allaire, a town councillor, who said she is receiving 'mixed reviews' about which option is ideal for the space. 'If you are fully redeveloping Centennial Park, it is a paved parking lot, a pathway around, multipurpose courts. We're essentially trying to get all the amenities that we did once have here back, which is ideal, just expensive,' Allaire said. Without the funding, Alaire noted council will go 'back to the drawing board' to decide a path forward. Options being presented to council include building: One tennis court and one multi-use court Two tennis courts Two multi-use courts An accessible pathway around the park Half of a paved parking lot Centennial Park Amherstburg Centennial Park seen in Amherstburg, Ont. on July 6, 2025. (Robert Lothian/CTV News Windsor) In August 2024, the province announced a $200 million recreation fund to help repair and build parks and sporting facilities. As the program only paid up to 50 per cent of a project, the town has already earmarked $530,000 for the construction. While Allaire wasn't ready to share her preferred option, the councillor noted many residents have been interested in building the pathway. 'We have a long-term facility coming in. We have the seniors; we have the hub. It makes a lot of sense,' Allaire noted. She added there's also been significant support for a multi-use court to appeal to youth in the area and at nearby schools. 'So unfortunately, this was a $1 million idea, we only have 500,000 now, so what do we do?' she added. In future, Allaire said they could look to other government grants to add to the park. She encouraged interested residents to sign up to speak at the July 14 meeting or create a written submission for council.

Trump's global tariff pause is supposed to expire Wednesday. What's at stake for Canada?
U.S. President Donald Trump's three-month pause on his sweeping global tariffs is set to expire in just a few days. Ahead of the deadline, some trade experts say Canada still faces big risks, despite avoiding that round of levies back in April. "What the president needs is a bunch of wins by July 9 because he needs to show that his strategy is working," said Inu Manak, a fellow for trade policy at the Council on Foreign Relations, during an interview with CBC's The House that aired Saturday. On April 2, Trump held up a list in the Rose Garden of the White House and announced what he called "reciprocal tariffs" on more than 150 countries, including China and the European Union. The rates for individual countries on the list varied from 10 per cent to more than 40 per cent. Canada wasn't on that list, though other tariffs Trump had previously imposed on Canadian goods remained. One week after he unveiled the list, the president backed down and said he would freeze the global tariffs for 90 days to allow each country to negotiate deals with his administration. The problem for Canada is Trump hasn't closed many deals in those 90 days, Manak said. So far, the U.S. has reached agreements with Britain and Vietnam. Negotiations with other top markets like China, India, the European Union and Japan are ongoing. "If we don't see a lot of deals coming out of this, what we're likely to see is [Trump] to get more agitated and ask for more concessions from the countries that he knows he can push a little harder," Manak said. "So I think for Canada, that would be a very bad situation." Carlo Dade, international policy director at the University of Calgary's School of Public Policy, told CBC News "there's a risk every day of the week that [Trump] decides to come after Canada. That is not an exaggeration." "We're open to this potential as long as the president has unrestrained power to implement tariffs whenever, wherever, however he wants," he said. Trump used a law called the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to apply the worldwide tariffs and his earlier fentanyl tariffs on Canada and Mexico. The law is intended to address "unusual and extraordinary" threats during national emergencies. In late May, the New York-based U.S. Court of International Trade ruled Trump exceeded his authority by invoking IEEPA. The White House swiftly appealed and a federal appeals court allowed IEEPA tariffs to remain in effect while it reviewed the decision. WATCH | Europe gets a reprieve on tariffs: Trump delays tariff threat on EU to July 1 month ago Duration 2:52 U.S. President Donald Trump says he will delay his 50 per cent tariff on imports from the European Union until July 9 after a weekend phone call between Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Manak said another challenge is Trump isn't facing political consequences for his tariffs right now — and no major economic fallout, either. "Right now, he's kind of sitting at a point where he feels he can kind of get away with maintaining the pressure that exists. And that pressure is enough to get other countries to the table," she said. At a White House news conference at the end of June, Trump told reporters the U.S. "can do whatever we want. We could extend [the July 9 deadline]. We could make it shorter. I'd like to make it shorter." On Sunday, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent suggested the July 9 deadline is being pushed back by about a month. He said on CNN's State of the Union the Trump administration would send letters to trading partners "saying that if you don't move things along, then on Aug. 1 you will boomerang back to your April 2 tariff level." "So I think we're going to see a lot of deals very quickly," Bessent told host Dana Bash. Is there opportunity for Canada? Fen Osler Hampson, co-chair of the Expert Group on Canada-U.S. Relations at Carleton University, said Canada could leverage the economic uncertainty from Trump's tariffs and "put the pedal to the metal" to expand trade with European and Asian allies. Hampson added that Canada already has good trading relationships with those regions through the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP). With U.S. tariffs, Hampson said those countries are "going to be looking for other market opportunities, both to sell and buy. I think our challenge is to get serious and to realize the real dividends that can come from those two major regional trading agreements." WATCH | Trump isn't pleased with taunts of 'chickening out' on trade: Does Trump 'always chicken out' on tariffs? 1 month ago Duration 5:34 Investors are poking fun at U.S. President Donald Trump's on-again, off-again tariff threats, calling it 'TACO' trade — which stands for 'Trump Always Chickens Out.' When asked about the term, Trump called it a 'nasty question.' CBC's Katie Simpson reports. Diversifying Canada's trading partners is one of Prime Minister Mark Carney's top goals — and a key objective for International Trade Minister Maninder Sidhu. "I think Canada has a lot to offer and we should be screaming that at the top of our lungs," Sidhu told CBC's The House in an interview that aired Saturday. Canada has already deepened its trade relationships with countries such as Ecuador and the United Arab Emirates since Carney and Sidhu came into office. But key markets that could make a big dent in easing Canada's reliance on U.S. trade — like the U.K., India and China — are thornier due to fraught diplomatic relationships and other irritants. Colin Robertson, a former Canadian diplomat and vice-president at the Canadian Global Affairs Institute, agreed that Canada can do more trade with other countries, but added a note of caution: businesses, not governments, are the only ones who can decide which companies they trade with. "Ultimately, business has to see a business opportunity," Robertson said, adding that the U.S. continues to be the market with the easiest access for Canadian businesses. On The House, Sidhu told guest host Janyce McGregor that Canadian businesses were indeed comfortable dealing with the U.S., but now they're asking him to help facilitate access to more countries. Canada-U.S. trade talks Carney and Trump continue to negotiate a Canada-U.S. trade deal, after setting a deadline of July 21. Hampson said the deadline helps Canada hold the Americans' attention as the Trump administration negotiates with other countries. Canada and U.S. restarted negotiations Monday morning, Carney says 6 days ago Duration 1:15 Prime Minister Mark Carney says he had a 'good' conversation with U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday, and that the two leaders will keep working to reach a deal by July 21. The federal government scrapped the digital services tax over the weekend after Trump paused all trade talks. The Americans also have an interest in getting a deal done soon, Robertson said. "If [the Americans] can't do it with Canada, their ally and their partner, it's much harder to do with Mexico, much harder with China," he said. "We should be the lowest of the hanging fruit from the American perspective." Trade discussions hit a roadblock in late June when Trump announced he would walk away from the negotiating table over Canada's digital services tax. The federal government scrapped the tax a few days later and discussions got back on track. Robertson said he's a bit skeptical about how far Canada will get with the U.S. by July 21, but adds that Trump enjoys declaring victory even if the agreement is "only 80 per cent of the way there." "Would we settle for 80 per cent? Be basically there and leave the rest to be cleaned up? I think so," he said. "Because if Trump's taken his eye off it and says it's basically there, then that's sufficient from where we're coming from."

More soldiers, more money. Canada's top soldier extols benefits of spending boost
Canada's top soldier is looking forward to a boost in military spending that includes a pay raise for military personnel at a time when uncertainty on the world stage is high. NATO leaders — including Canada — have approved a plan to dramatically increase defence spending across the Western alliance to five per cent of gross domestic product over the next decade. Prime Minister Mark Carney said the move to five per cent of GDP — 3.5 per cent for core military spending and 1.5 per cent for defence-related infrastructure — will take place over the next 10 years. In an interview with The Canadian Press Saturday, Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Jennie Carignan said work is underway to figure out how to distribute the almost 20 per cent pay hikes promised by Defence Minister David McGuinty. "It's an envelope that will be adapting to what we need. Some of it will be a pay increase, some of it will be for benefit allowances for specific trades or specific functions," Carignan said. "Yes, there will be a raise this year. Yes, that's the aim so we want everything to be ready for the fall and wintertime." Carignan said the amount of the pay hike will depend on a soldier's rank and allowances will be allocated to specific trades where CAF needs more people. "For example, recruiting and training is a priority. We want to make sure we encourage instructors in our schools so they're going to be additional benefits as an example," she said. Chief Warrant Officer Bob McCann said the extra pay and benefits will be a morale booster for military personnel. "We're in a great space right now where there's a lot of attention on defence. For the troops this is outstanding because this is why we joined. We want to serve. We want to be part of Canada's defence," McCann said. "We want to have equipment to train so everything that's coming is truly positive. And we do have 107 trades that are highly competitive with the civilian industry, so getting folks in, getting them trained, takes the pressure off the troops that are already there." Carignan said it's been a good year for recruiting with the CAF surpassing its objective by 2,000 for the first time in 10 years. She said fewer people are leaving the service as well. About 18 per cent of the new recruits are women. "A very good retention rate and a lot more people coming in which means we are growing at CAF at the moment and very positive." Carignan said plans are in place to boost the number of military personnel. "We are focusing on going back to our full complement of regular Canadian Armed Forces members and reserve force, so it's 30,000 reserves we are aiming for and 71,500 regular forces," she said. "We have additional positions that are also approved, and as time goes by and we are close to our ceiling we will add additional forces." Carignan said the extra funding will help keep Canada safe. "Our geography does not protect us as well as it used to. We need to have more investment to actually exercise our own sovereignty here in Canada and of course this implies the Arctic," she said. "It is getting more contested, more traffic, more people interested in this area so of course we have to invest more in the Arctic to make sure our sovereignty is respected." Carignan wants to see more radar bases be able to scramble jets or ships if required. "We have to have the sensors in place — once you have seen you have to have the ability to intercept or actually act," she said.
