October 9, 2026 at 9:17 a.m. First-of-its-kind study launches ahead of World Mental Health Day providing free coaching to first responders in partnership with Workplace Safety and Insurance Board of Ontario TORONTO - BetterUp Canada Inc., the Canadian operations of BetterUp(R), the human transformation company and pioneer of virtual coaching, today announced The Ontario Frontline Study, a first-of-its-kind research program centred on first responders and healthcare workers. The research effort is a multi-year study that aims to explore whether and how personalized coaching can build resilience, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being for these workers, who operate in immensely stressful environments. "I've been waiting my whole career to do this study. If the results bear out what the science predicts, this will be among the most important applied research on human resilience ever conducted." - Martin Seligman, PhD "This study is significant for Canada. First responders and healthcare workers carry some of the heaviest mental and emotional load in our workforce, yet the vast majority of mental health resources in this country currently sit in the private sector," said Lesley Lutes, PhD, Professor of Psychology and Director of the Centre for Obesity and Well-Being Research Excellence at the University of British Columbia Okanagan Campus and advisor on the study. "Research like this builds real evidence behind a scalable way to reach the people holding it together for everyone else. If we want to build Canada strong, it must be on a solid foundation which consists of significant and ongoing investment in access to effective mental and behavioural health services. That is true innovation." BetterUp Canada Inc. developed the study's coaching methodology with Martin Seligman, PhD, the Zellerbach Family Professor of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, director of the university's Positive Psychology Center, and a former president of the American Psychological Association. Widely regarded as the founder of the field of positive psychology, Seligman has built resilience programs for the U.S. Army, global healthcare organizations, and school systems. He is the author of more than 30 books and 350 scientific articles. He has served on BetterUp's Science Board since 2018 and has been involved in the Ontario study since its inception. "The most significant impact I anticipate from this study is a definitive, large-scale answer to a question that has been hard to test rigorously: can we build psychological resilience in people before they are in crisis, and does it protect them from the occupational toll of high-stress work?" said Seligman. "I've been waiting my whole career to do this study. If the results bear out what the science predicts, this will be among the most important applied research on human resilience ever conducted, and it will have been done on exactly the population that needs it most." Ontario-based first responders and healthcare workers can check their eligibility to receive six months of free one-on-one coaching, and may be compensated for their participation. Those interested can learn more here. BetterUp Canada Inc. is headquartered in Toronto and leads the Ontario Frontline Study as its flagship research initiative. BetterUp has supported Canadian organizations and coaches since its founding, partnering with organizations including EllisDon, Loblaw Companies Limited, and the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board of Ontario, and running a long-standing engineering internship program with the University of Waterloo.

President's Choice cookies recalled across Canada due to metal wire. Oct 9 2026, 7:46 am President's Choice cookies are the latest grocery product that's part of a nationwide recall that shoppers should be aware of. Canadians are urged to check their pantry after the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) announced on Thursday that Loblaw Companies Limited has issued a recall for its brand cookies due to "extraneous material." The product is sold at Loblaw locations. According to the notice, the company is recalling the President's Choice English-Style Gingersnap Cookies due to the presence of metal wire. The affected lot comes in a 350g box with the universal product code 0 60383 76819 5. It also has the best-before dates 2027 FE 08 and 2027 MR 14. "Do not use, sell, serve, or distribute the affected product," states the notice. The CFIA has classified it as a class two recall. This means that "there is a moderate risk that consuming the food may lead to short-term or non-life-threatening health problems." For public enquiries, Canadians can contact the CFIA at [email protected] or 1 (613) 773-2342. You can also report any health or safety concerns online. There have been several other food recalls recently, so it's worth checking if you purchased any of the affected products recently. On Tuesday, Loblaw recalled two brands of seafood products sold nationwide due to an undeclared ingredient that could trigger an allergic reaction. A popular brand of hot pepper paste was recently recalled due to undeclared wheat. Consumers with a wheat allergy or those with celiac disease or other gluten-related disorders should not consume the products. The So Delicious Dairy-Free Salted Caramel frozen dessert was also recalled due to the potential presence of plastic-like and gravel-like pieces. With files from Natalia Buia

Canadian boycott of US products pushes grocers to adapt, explore new supply sources. A price sign for oranges from South Africa is displayed as Canadian consumers double down on efforts to buy Canadian goods and boycott U.S. products, at a supermarket in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, September 8, 2026. Picture taken with a mobile phone. REUTERS/Arlyn McAdorey By Nivedita Balu TORONTO, Sept 12 (Reuters) - A growing consumer push to buy Canadian and boycott U.S. products is reshaping supermarket shelves in Canada, forcing grocers to improve country-of-origin labeling and secure new sources of supply. In Ontario, the president of independent grocer Vince's Market, Giancarlo Trimarchi, turned to Facebook to show customers that most produce on the shelves of his stores is Canadian after receiving angry emails and comments about the grocer stocking U.S. produce. A bitter trade war between the United States and Canada has made consumers more conscious of where their dollars go. "Buy Canadian" movements started last year after U.S. President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on Canadian goods. They have intensified in recent weeks after trade talks broke down and Trump signed an executive order to change the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America. "It is a lot more aggressive this time around than last year," Trimarchi said in an interview. Trump told reporters in Dublin on Saturday that Canada is eager to reach a trade deal with the United States and that an agreement could come "fairly soon," while repeating his complaints that Canada has treated U.S. farmers unfairly and should remove tariffs. A BALANCING ACT Trimarchi's four stores, spread across the Greater Toronto Area, now have about 90% Canadian produce. Trimarchi is now sourcing strawberries from Quebec instead of the United States and said he has cut his advertising budget as the changes have pressured operating costs. "We were always put in a position where you had to balance quality versus price. Now it's quality versus price versus country of origin," Trimarchi said. Loblaw Cos, Canada's largest food retailer, in August brought back large signs featuring a maple leaf in its produce and fresh-food sections after a brief hiatus to flag the Canadian origins of products. Loblaw also reintroduced a "T" tag to inform customers which products are affected by tariffs and make Canadian products easier to identify. Metro, the country's third-largest grocer, said it would continue to prioritize local Canadian products in the current context. "There has been a permanent change in the Canadian psyche," said Gary Sands, senior vice president of public policy and advocacy for the Canadian Federation of Independent Grocers. Canada is the world's fifth-largest importer of fresh vegetables by value. The United States is still the biggest supplier of fresh produce, accounting for more than half of the imports, followed by Mexico.
Loblaw launches AI-powered health chat tool. PC Chat promises to provide trusted, practical healthcare information Loblaw Companies hopes to answer Canadians' health questions with its new AI-powered tool, PC Chat. Created for PC Health - Loblaw's digital health platform and mobile app - Loblaw said the chat bot is informed by Canadian clinical guidelines and backed by an advisory board of Canadian medical professionals. Canadians can use the tool to ask health questions - like, "Should I take a daily vitamin?" or "Is this something I should speak to a doctor about?" - and get plain-language information in real time. Answers are designed to be relevant for users across every province and territory, "including underserved patient populations," Loblaw said. A more "personalized experience" is available when a user connects their PC Health or Shoppers Drug Mart digital pharmacy profile, giving the chat more context about their health history and informing responses. "Canadians are asking health questions every day, but more information doesn't always bring more clarity," said Lauren Steinberg, executive vice-president and chief digital officer, Loblaw Companies Ltd., in a press release. "We built PC Chat to give Canadians a place to find trusted information and a clear path to next steps." Loblaw said the tool isn't intended to replace doctors, pharmacists, or other healthcare providers, but instead to provide Canadians with "more options" to "find the care they need and feel better-equipped for their healthcare appointments." "Pharmacists tailor patient conversations based on their clinical knowledge and that patient's medication history," said Nabil Chikh, senior vice-president, pharmacy, Shoppers Drug Mart. "PC Chat helps users navigate next steps based on the questions they ask, such as when to visit a healthcare provider, and deciding where to go, so they can come to healthcare conversations feeling even more prepared." PC Chat is currently available in most Canadian provinces. It will roll out in New Brunswick and Quebec this fall. To celebrate the tool's launch, PC Health is rolling out a new campaign called "Ask Away." The platform will be brought to life through a public aerial drone experience over Toronto on Thursday night (Sept. 10), inspired by the health questions many Canadians find themselves asking late at night.
