This is the first franchise outside of the U.S. and it's expected to play some games in vancouver and montreal.

They have been determined partners committed to bringing a wnba franchise here to canada. We've been in conversations with larry for a while. And it became clear that he and his team have the experience, the infrastructure, the this is a visionary ownership group.

It is 10:34 22 degrees. Let's bring in lisa now with a look at the roads lead to how are things shaping up there. You know, if you have anywhere to I want to cruise with windows down. It is a beautiful day. Roads are bare and dry, but we are dealing with some slowdowns and some north 427 collectors near burnhamthorpe. There's a stall in the left lane, not a huge jim. There. East garden into downtown that's loading up again. Typically from just past south kingsway through the jameson stretch. This is obviously east of jameson. We have that long-term lane realignments north valley park way. This is north of the gardner through eastern left lane out with a maintenance crew. And I'm still waiting to hear if we have any restrictions on the south valley, partly because it really has been slow off the 404 from finch right down towards the gardner. And this really is unusual for this time of the day. Unless we have lane restrictions. So when I get those, a confirmation of restrictions on what you know, east 4, one typically slows as well in sections 427 through the 400 good news ttc line. One service has resumed. Sinclair bloor yonge a northbound kipling at evans. Still hearing about a collision course. Also it back to you. Thank you, welcome. Gta.

Police from toronto, york peel region halton hamilton and the opp will all be in attendance. They say they're coming together for this campaign because street racing has no jurisdictional boundaries. The man in his 40's is dead after a double shooting outside a mississauga school. Shots were fired in the parking lot of sellers. Green public school along montevideo road. This is near winston churchill boulevard and battleford road. This happened after 11 last night. You see there is still a pretty significant police presence in the area. Officers collecting evidence, trying to figure out what happened here. We know the 2 victims were

originally taken to hospital in life-threatening condition for one, did not survive. Police say the victim in hospital is a male under the age of 20 who still remains in critical condition. >> We're not sure at the time right now at present that the vehicles on how they are related to the investigation. That is something that will be certain to to update. And we're looking into right now at the time, it was a it was pretty populated in the evening varying reports of anywhere from 10 to 20 people gathered in that lot for we reasons, we don't know yet the time of the shooting. There are reports of vehicles leaving the but it's unfortunately, it's too early to tell at moments of whether those witnesses or suspects or just individuals the sound of gunfire. >> O it's crazy. Like I never thought this area with like of stuff. You know. Because we moved to because it's like a really safe, like nice part of mississauga. So. >> It's like a really scary. >> And investigators say they don't have any suspect information at this time. But several vehicles fled the area and some witnesses have come forward.

Well, police in hamilton say they're now looking for the public's help after a number of shootings in the city more than doubled over the past year. And among the cases a day like gunfight. That happened just moments after some kids walked through the scene. Ctv's sean leathong has those details. >> There have been brazen daylight shootings, buildings indiscriminately shot under cover of darkness. >> And several suspects at large hamilton is experiencing a steep increase in gun violence. That this point we're running a record a record pace in 2024. There have been 22 shootings more than double last year and on pace to beat their record year in 2019.

Actually it >> Yeah, we look all the time kind of a neutral city neutral you know, maybe we would do it for city that were really serious about on expansion for the next 2 expansion yeah, it's a possibility. Yeah, the other thing is we have such an avid a rabid fan base in the cities that we're so even the commissioner cup championship, you know, we've got about neutral-site all-star, we thought about neutral site. >> Probably not a home game for team because then they lose that game revenue and then the league has to put it on. But yet maybe for some of our temple and what I think it's a unique situation here in canada. If you want to open up the canadian media market. The canadian corporate partner market, just maybe one city and a country of this size and scale, probably with the right answer. So it was larry's idea, let's maybe make this more like canada's team. Let's play games montreal and no set yet because we haven't even set the number of games we will be playing in 2026 cars. That will be the first year of a new collective bargaining agreement.
