MICHIGAN â The Michigan Attorney Generalâs office has teamed up with Uber to raise awareness about human trafficking.
Both groups are working with Polaris to help Uber drivers and delivery people learn the signs of trafficking and what to do about it.
Michigan Assistant Attorney General and Chair of the Michigan Human Trafficking Commission, Kelly Carter, said the training teaches drivers and the public to think outside the trafficking myths.
She said, âDonât assume that a victim of trafficking only has one look or presents in only one situation.â
EDMONTON Unseasonably warm weather over the past three weeks has seen a significant increase in activities like skating and sledding on unstable stormwater facilities in neighbourhoods around Edmonton, EPCOR said and it’s only December. “So far this year, this season, we have received over 30 reports,” EPCOR spokesperson Amanda Ash told CTV News. “To put that in perspective, last season we saw a total of 21, so this number is incredibly alarming.” What people need to know, according to Ash, is that the city’s 240 stormwater facilities are not typical ponds. They are, in fact, part of the city’s drainage infrastructure, designed as a collection pond which holds runoff from city streets before it eventually flows into the river.
