Article content Building on the strong sales performance of 'Tropical Flow', Cizzle Brands is launching a new limited-time variety of CWENCH Hydration™ in collaboration with Coach Chippy called 'Pink Lemon Flow'. Pink Lemon Flow will be sold exclusively in Sobeys Inc. banner stores in the grocery category, in addition to several sporting goods retailers, Life Time Fitness clubs, and select Petro-Canada gas stations. Article content TORONTO — Cizzle Brands Corporation (Cboe Canada: CZZL) (OTCQB: CZZLF) (Frankfurt: 8YF) (the 'Company' or 'Cizzle Brands'), is pleased to announce the launch of Pink Lemon Flow, a new limited-time flavour of CWENCH Hydration™ developed in partnership with long-time Cizzle Brands' collaborator, Coach Chippy. The launch of Pink Lemon Flow builds upon the success of Cizzle Brands' and Coach Chippy's Tropical Flow flavour of CWENCH which launched in January 2025, and has sold out its entire initial run including more than 20,000 cases of its ready-to-drink format. Article content Article content Starting in the second half of July 2025, Pink Lemon Flow will be carried in several different retail channels. In the grocery category, Pink Lemon Flow will exclusively be carried by banners of Sobeys Inc. in the grocery chain channel, including Sobeys and Safeway (in approximately 350 stores between the two chains), as well as all Longo's locations, and select locations of Thrifty Foods and Farm Boy (who began carrying CWENCH Hydration™ in March of 2025). The availability of Pink Lemon Flow at Sobeys is the first time the CWENCH Hydration™ brand is being launched at Sobeys. Article content In addition to the Sobeys banners, many Canadian sporting goods retailers will be carrying Pink Lemon Flow, including Source for Sports, Sports Excellence, Pro Hockey Life, FGL Quebec, and Pure Hockey. Pink Lemon Flow will also be listed by select Petro-Canada locations, a gas station chain who has over 1,600 retail locations across the country. Additionally, Life Time Fitness will be offering Pink Lemon Flow at its fitness clubs in Canada and the United States. Cizzle Brands' Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer John Celenza commented, 'Coach Chippy has grown to become one of the most influential icons in youth sports and it's awesome to be working with him again to launch Pink Lemon Flow. There's no one more enthusiastic about CWENCH Hydration™ than Chippy. We picked the Pink Lemon Flow flavour with Chippy because it offers a bright vibrant taste that people are going to love, especially during the summer season when hydration should be top of mind for everyone.' Article content Celenza added 'Launching Pink Lemon Flow exclusively at Sobeys' banners in the grocery channel is also a big milestone for Cizzle Brands. We'll be sharing more details about the availability of our products at Sobeys in the coming weeks but suffice it to say we have a very exciting summer ahead of us as we team up with Coach Chippy and Sobeys to make Pink Lemon Flow, and CWENCH, remarkable successes.' Article content Regarding the launch of Pink Lemon Flow, Coach Chippy commented, 'Summer was made for my Don't Think, Just Flow mentality. From driveway dangles, boardwalk blading, and staying fresh with the team — I wanted a drink that owned those moments. After seeing how fast Tropical Flow flew off the shelves, the team at CWENCH and I got to work. The result? Pink Lemon Flow — a crisp, tart pink lemonade with zero sugar and six electrolytes to keep you cool, dialed-in, and flow ready. It's a sip of summer in a bottle. Crack one. Stay hydrated. Let the flow take over.' Article content About Cizzle Brands Corporation Article content Cizzle Brands Corporation is a sports nutrition company that is elevating the game in health and wellness.

Nearly half of Canadians say Canada Day has more meaning this year: Poll
Nearly one in two Canadians say that Canada Day holds more meaning for them this year, according to a new poll. Petro-Canada's Live by the Leaf index, in partnership with the Harris Poll, found that nearly one in two, or 48%, of Canadians feel this way. One-quarter, or 24%, say July 1 will be much more meaningful, while 81% of Canadians say they plan to celebrate Canada Day, with younger Canadians most likely to do so (85% among Gen Z, 83% among Millennials). Of those planning to celebrate Canada Day, their activities are led by relaxing at home (44%), watching fireworks (23%), attending a local Canada Day event or parade (17%), watching Canada Day programming (15%), and dining out or supporting local Canadian restaurants (13%). Nearly two-thirds, or 64%, of Canadians also continue to say they have a high level of Canadian pride at the current time (8-10 on a 10-point scale), down just two points from 66% in April, but remaining up one point from 63% in February. This sentiment is highest among baby boomers (79%), women (65%), and residents of Manitoba/Saskatchewan or Atlantic Canada (71% each). Otherwise, 25% continue to say their level of Canadian pride is higher than ever before (though this is down from a high of 34% in March). Another 62% say that over the past six months, they have become more confident that Canada can survive and thrive, even in the face of increased economic threats, tariffs, and other uncertainty (on the other hand, just 14% say their confidence has fallen over this time). The survey also says 82% of Canadians are travelling within Canada this year, up from 75% in 2024, and the share of international trips has dropped from 25% to 18% — a 28% decline. The poll says Canadian trips to the U.S. have nearly halved, falling from 15% to just 8% — a 44% drop in a single year — and among those thinking about vacationing in Canada, the top-five destinations of interest are cities (42%), my own backyard (37%), beaches (36%), mountains (36%) and provincial parks (36%). Canadians support preventing Iran from becoming nuclear power, poll finds 42% of Canadians choosing made-in-Canada products: Poll The survey found 96% of Canadians say at least some new behaviours adopted in 2025 have stuck, including prioritizing Canadian-made products (47%), buying fewer American goods (44%), considering more Canadian vacation destinations (27%) and buying in bulk or when prices are low (26%). This survey was conducted online by The Harris Poll Canada from June 20-23, 2025 on behalf of Petro-Canada with a sample of 1,538 Canadians aged 18 and older. For comparison purposes, a probability sample of this size has an estimated margin of error of ±2.5%, 19 times out of 20.

WestJet faces cybersecurity incident involving app and internal systems
Article content At this time, we have no updates to share regarding the cybersecurity incident, but we remain committed to keeping you informed and will share further information as it becomes available. Please find the latest information available on or @WestJetNews — WestJet (@WestJet) June 14, 2025 WestJet cybersecurity woes follow a string of similar incidents over the last few years. School boards in Alberta and beyond were notified of a cyberattack against PowerSchool, a software company that stores personal information. The firm said it learned about the breach on Dec. 28 and notified school boards in Alberta and across Canada in a letter on Jan. 7 that their student and staff data stored with the company had been breached in a cyberattack. It was recently revealed a cyberattacker has more recently tried to extort school districts that buy data storage services from PowerSchool, despite assurances from the company that the threat had been averted. The company has acknowledged it had paid a ransom in an effort to secure lost data. In October 2024, the Calgary Public Library was hit by an attempted ransomware attack, which shut the system for several days and affected electronic systems for many weeks. No data was lost and library CEO Sarah Meilleur said the institution's cybersecurity measures and incident response protocols were able to block the attack. In spring 2024, retailer London Drugs shuttered its stores for several days after a cybersecurity breach, and in June 2023, Calgary-based Suncor was struck by a cybersecurity incident, leading to payment problems and other issues at its Petro-Canada retail gas stations. In 2017, WestJet itself was the victim of a data breach involving a third party, with profile data for some of its WestJet Rewards program members revealed online.

Create Account The mystery behind the unclaimed $5-million Lotto 6/49 prize sold in Woodstock that almost expired has been solved after a Beachville resident checked the winning ticket. It was April 17 when the Ontario Lottery Gaming Corp. advised players to review their past tickets before the $5-million prize expired on May 4 – news that Connie Christie heard on the radio while running errands, according to an OLG statement published on Wednesday. 'When I heard the details, I turned to my mom and said, 'I have a feeling that's my ticket,'' Christie is quoted as saying. After dropping off her mother, Christie, a regular lottery player for the past seven years, returned to her home in Beachville – a rural community southwest of Woodstock – and checked her ticket on the OLG app, officials said.

'I saw the 'Big Winner' message and put my phone down to pause for moment,' Christie said, per the OLG statement. 'Then took another look. I managed to stay calm, thinking, 'I did it!' It was a great feeling.' Christie told officials she typically checks her tickets monthly to see if she's won, but 'sometimes forgets,' and had recently found a 'small stack of tickets she hadn't checked yet.' The winning ticket was purchased at Petro-Canada on Norwich Avenue in Woodstock. Christie said she gathered her family to share the 'incredible news' while they speculated about what she wanted to tell them, the statement noted, adding she was smiling and remembering the moment fondly. 'I had the winning numbers pulled up on my laptop when my kids guessed, 'Did you win the lottery?' My answer was, 'Yes, and it's a life-changing prize – $5 million.' We sat there in silence, and I could see the wheels turning in all their heads as I shared proof of my win.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Christie said her plans for the windfall focus on her family, the statement said, adding she plans to retire and wants her husband to do the same. 'I'd also like to treat my husband to a scenic road trip along the Pacific Coast Highway' in California. bwilliams@ @BrianWatLFPress The Local Journalism Initiative is funded by the Government of Canada Read More Celebrity Editorial Cartoons NHL Columnists Sunshine Girls
