This was the very, very early years of the outbreak. We were seeing these large numbers of mostly gay men who were formerly otherwise well, who were being devastated by this terrible, mysterious disease. And it was so concentrated in the gay community that I really wanted to get a feel for what was going on there that would lead to this explosion of a sexually transmitted disease. I went to the Castro District. I went down to Greenwich Village, and I went into bathhouses to essentially see what was going on, I took my suit and tie off. The epidemiologist in me went, โ€˜Oh, my goodness, this is a perfect setup for an explosion of a sexually transmitted disease,โ€™ And the same thing going to the gay bars and seeing what was going on, and it gave me a great insight into the explosiveness of the outbreak of a sexually transmitted disease. It gave me a really on-the-ground feel for what was actually, dynamically going on.

Former Canadian Finance Minister Bill Morneau breached conflict-of-interest rules by not recusing himself when the government awarded a contract to a charity he had close ties to, independent ethics commissioner Mario Dion said on Thursday.

In a parallel probe, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was cleared of having broken any ethics rules when WE Charity was tapped to run a C$900 million ($740.9 million) program to help students find work during the COVID-19 pandemic last year.

The charity later walked away from the contract.

Trudeau and Morneau both apologized last year for not recusing themselves during Cabinet discussions involving WE.

Trudeau's wife, brother and mother had been paid to speak at WE Charity events in previous years, but Dion said this appearance of a conflict of interest was not "real".

Morneau, on the other hand, was a friend of Craig Kielburger, one of the charity's founders, Dion said. The charity had "unfettered access" to the minister's office that "amounted to preferential treatment", a statement said.

No fines or penalties were levied.

Morneau said on Twitter he should have recused himself. Trudeau said in a statement issued by his office that the decision "confirms what I have been saying from the beginning" that there was no conflict of interest.

Ahead of a possible federal election later this year, the opposition could use the ruling to underscore the government's uneven track record on ethics. Trudeau has been twice been found in breach of ethics rules in the past.

In August 2019, he was found to have broken rules by trying to influence a corporate legal case, and in December 2017, the previous ethics commissioner said Trudeau had acted wrongly by accepting a vacation on the Aga Khan's private island.

In a statement, opposition Conservative Party leader Erin O'Toole said: "To clean up Ottawa, Conservatives will impose higher penalties for individuals who break the Conflict of Interest Act and shine a light on Liberal cover-ups and scandals, ending them once and for all."

The controversy over Morneau's ties to the charity was a factor in his resignation in August last year, when he also left his parliamentary seat, saying he would not run again. Chrystia Freeland was named to take over for him a day later.

50-car Union Pacific train derails in Minnesota

Local police are ordering people to shelter in place after a 50-car Union Pacific train carrying a mix of unknown substances derailed Saturday afternoon.

Authorities in the city of Albert Lea, located about 10 miles north of Minnesotaโ€™s border with Iowa, said in a Facebook post that nearby intersections had been blocked and that pedestrians should avoid the area as they responded to the derailed train.

Police later updated the post saying that no injuries were reported, with video of the scene showing derailed cars lying on the ground next to Minnesotaโ€™s Goose Lake.

Union Pacific train derails near Goose Lake

Authorities are at the scene of a Union Pacific Railroad train derailment behind Eastgate Road near Goose Lake in Albert Lea.

According to the Freeborn County Sheriffโ€™s Office, about 20 cars derailed on the southbound train. No information has been released on what led to the derailment.

The derailment was reported to authorities at about 1:30 p.m. in the wetland area near Goose Lake. No injuries were reported.

Albert Lea Fire Department Capt. Dennis Glassel said most of the derailed cars were empty but some carried liquid petroleum, potash, lumber or hydrochloric acid. He said there was no indication of any leakage from the derailed cars.

A chemical assessment team from Rochester was on the scene, along with the Albert Lea Fire Department, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, the Albert Lea Police Department and the Freeborn County Sheriffโ€™s Office.

Glassel said the east portion of Eastgate Road is closed for emergency personnel, but no other streets are affected.

Authorities have said there is no immediate harm to the public in the area. They are asking people to stay out of the area to allow access for crews.

Union Pacific crews and contractors are onsite and will be working to clear the line.
