Uttar Pradesh's Salkhan Fossil Park makes it to USESCO tentative list: Stunning facts about the park
Good news coming from Uttar Pradesh. Salkhan Fossil Park, also known as Sonbhadra Fossils Park, has recently been added to UNESCO's Tentative List for World Heritage Sites. It's an incredible achievement for Uttar Pradesh which is a step towards international recognition of its geological and paleontological attraction. Situated in Salkhan village in Sonbhadra district, near Robertsganj, the park is spread across 25 hectares in the Kaimur Range. It boasts fossils up to 1.4 billion years old! Here are five stunning facts about Salkhan: Home to Prehistoric Stromatolites and Living Relics of the Mesoproterozoic The park offers an insight into the planet's earliest life forms as it is home to stromatolites which are layered sedimentary structures formed by ancient cyanobacteria or blue-green algae. These are microorganisms that have been photosynthesized. These stromatolites belong to the Mesoproterozoic era (1.6–1.0 billion years ago). These are extremely rare geological formations across the globe. Salkhan is much older than sites like Shark Bay in Australia and Yellowstone the USA. An insight into early life Salkhan is an extremely important site for many reasons as it has shattered the beliefs of scientists and geologists. For years, geologists thought life existed only from around 570 million years ago. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo However, stromatolites discovered at Salkhan are older than that. These fossils are landmarks offering new perspectives about the Earth's earliest biosphere and oceanic ecosystems. Opening of the park Though geological surveys in the region began as early as the 1930s, the site was officially opened as a fossil park in 2002. A major Canadian-led workshop in December 2002 brought 42 scientists from around the globe, including renowned geologist H. J. Hoffman. He called the fossils 'beautiful and clear'. Eco-Tourism hub The Uttar Pradesh government has actively funded the site. The government has approved INR 1.5 crores for visitor amenities. It includes nature trails, security, and interpretive centers. An MoU with Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeosciences in Lucknow has supported scientific documentation, leading to UNESCO Tentative List submission by June 2025. A dossier for final UNESCO candidacy is being prepared by local authorities which will be prepared by 2026. The fossil park is about 12 km from Robertsganj in Sonbhadra district and can be easily reached via SH‑5A. One step to a healthier you—join Times Health+ Yoga and feel the change

Fresh group of Edmonton soldiers depart for Latvia
Roughly 100 Edmonton soldiers departed for Europe Sunday to join the Multinational Brigade Latvia's Operation Reassurance where they'll stay for the next six months as part of the biggest reinforcement of NATO's collective defence in a generation. Article content 'We're just super excited to finally get boots on the ground because we have been looking forward to this for such a long time, and we've worked so hard to train,' said Capt. Emily Stregger as the group prepared to fly out. Article content Article content Article content NATO forces have been in the region since 2017 with the establishment of the Canadian-led combat-ready battlegroup that is hosted by the Latvian Mechanized Infantry Brigade and comprised of 14 contributing nations. Maj. Tim McHugh of the Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) said the group will be doing regular training while deployed, which takes on a different tone given their proximity to Russia. Article content Article content 'I think just having them on the vehicles on a regular basis, having access to the training area, and knowing that there is the potential for a threat that exists in that area does increase the level of training, and it makes everybody a little bit more excited.' Article content The group will be working with a variety of armoured vehicles, including the armoured engineer vehicle, which Stregger said is a variant of a Leopard II tank that has a bulldozer blade and excavator arm. Article content Article content Article content 'It's one of its own over there. So it'll be a very unique experience,' said Stregger. Article content Of the roughly 100 soldiers headed to Latvia, McHugh guessed that maybe only 20 had been deployed previously, making it an entirely new experience for the rest. With so many being deployed for the first time, McHugh said part of his job will be keeping the soldiers grounded. Article content 'We're going over there to do our job, to focus on the job first. There's going to be bonuses, you know, being over there, getting to see another country and interact with other nations, but focus on our core mandate and our core task, which is fighting tanks, and being better at that, and integrating into our battle group and being a confident fighting force,' said McHugh. Article content With the ongoing war in Ukraine and recent fighting between Iran and Israel having ramped up, military activity has been on the rise across the Atlantic. But McHugh said it doesn't change the mentality of the group heading into its deployment. Last deployed in Latvia himself in 2020, McHugh said the main difference for him is a growing Canadian presence.

Oxford Properties and CT REIT Announce Major Retrofit at Canada Square, Anchored by New 20-year Office Lease with Canadian Tire Corporation
TORONTO, June 9, 2025 /CNW/ - Oxford Properties Group ("Oxford"), the global real estate arm of OMERS, and CT Real Estate Investment Trust ("CT REIT") (TSX: today announced, in partnership with Canadian Tire Corporation ("CTC") (TSX: CTC) (TSX: CTC.A), a transformative investment to retrofit the existing office buildings at Canada Square, a key midtown Toronto hub. This Canadian-led partnership includes a 550,000 square foot, 20-year office lease with CTC, demonstrating the enduring appeal of centrally located, transit-connected workplaces and representing a major investment in Toronto's urban core. The redevelopment project represents a combined investment of over $200 million by Canada Square co-owners Oxford and CT REIT. The two office towers at 2180 and 2200 Yonge Street will be retrofitted to deliver 680,000 square feet of highly functional and modernized office space, over 80% of which will be anchored by CTC. Having operated its head office at Canada Square for over 50 years, CTC is also investing to build a next-generation headquarters for thousands of employees. "This is a proud milestone for Canadian Tire and a major reinvestment in a neighbourhood we've called home for more than half a century," said Greg Hicks, President and CEO, Canadian Tire Corporation. "We're excited to help transform this vibrant corner of the city. Our employees will be among the thousands who come here each day – for work, for play and for the ease of new transit connections in every direction." Originally constructed in the 1960s and 1970s, the 18-storey building at 2180 Yonge Street will undergo internal upgrades and a complete façade renewal, followed by a full renovation of the 17-storey tower at 2200 Yonge Street. Construction, which will begin in late 2025, will minimize embodied carbon from the project while introducing significant energy efficiency upgrades in support of LEED Certification. The retrofit work will also deliver new employee amenities and approximately 15,000 square feet of modern retail space on Yonge Street, significantly improve the streetscape and offer a refreshed retail experience for the neighbourhood. "This 'made in Canada' solution which sees the coming together of these great Canadian institutions to revitalize a key hub for Torontonians is a proud moment for OMERS and Oxford," said Blake Hutcheson, President and CEO of OMERS. "This investment represents our ongoing commitment to being a champion for Canada, here at home and around the world. We are proud to put our pensioners' dollars to work to improve our cities while, at the same time, delivering on our obligation to generate returns to pay pensions for our members." The project will further benefit the community by delivering an upgraded and more accessible TTC entrance on Yonge Street to help local residents and workers more efficiently access Eglinton station. "Canada Square is a crown-jewel property and a generational asset, and this first step in its redevelopment allows us to begin to unlock its full potential," said Kevin Salsberg, President and CEO, CT REIT. "This major reinvestment exemplifies our commitment to enhancing our assets and providing reliable, durable and growing results for our unitholders. We're building for today while setting the stage for the decades to come." "This substantial investment at Canada Square is part of Oxford's deep conviction that well-located, high-quality, and sustainable workplaces that focus on the employee experience will continue to outperform," said Daniel Fournier, Executive Chair at Oxford Properties. "A company of Canadian Tire's stature signing a multi-decade office lease speaks to the trust our customers have in Oxford to create their ideal workplace. Not only is this an environmentally friendly approach to revitalizing one of the most transit-connected sites in the city, but it brings a substantial amount of employment to the neighbourhood and will benefit Torontonians for generations to come as we continue to advance our long-term plans for Canada Square." The office retrofit project is an important step towards the planned redevelopment of the 9.2-acre site into a vibrant, mixed-use addition to the community. Oxford and CT REIT continue to advance plans for the west side of the site that contemplate a significant amount of critically needed new rental housing and public open space in one of the city's most transit-connected nodes.
