With 2020 in the books, Frank Carpentieri, Humboldt’s planning co-ordinator, is looking back on the number of building permits issued for the city during that time. Despite COVID-19 bringing many challenges for Humboldt residents, the money spent on construction products has been consistent across the year, with 36 permits issued and $4.2 million of work done in residential, commercial and industrial sectors across the city. In 2019, 38 permits were issued valued at $3.1 million worth of projects and in 2018, 49 permits were issued with the projects valued at $4.9 million. Back in March, Carpentieri expected 2020 to have a much greater impact on building permit numbers and values. Out of the 2020 permits, only one was a brand new building with the rest being renovations to residential, commercial and industrial properties. In the case of residential renovations, Carpentieri said people wanted to spend that money since the lockdown meant more time at home in the spring and summer. With only a million dollars difference between permit values in 2019 and 2020, Carpentieri said it didn’t take much, maybe one more commercial renovation, to cause that rise for 2020. For 2020, Saskatchewan had $1.2 billion in building permits over 2020, which was a drop from 2019’s $1.5 billion. Nationally, Saskatchewan is ranked eight among the rest of the provinces with a 2.8 per cent drop in the national average. Ontario, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador were the only provinces that saw a rise in permit dollars.

Starting Monday, Jan. 25, francophone non-profit organizations will be able to apply for provincial pandemic relief funding. The $2 million COVID-19 Relief Fund is being managed by Assemblée de la francophonie de l'Ontario (l’AFO). Eligible organizations can apply for operational funding to help during the pandemic, according to the government announcement. It aims to provide financial support to francophone non-profits struggling with revenue cuts and service interruption caused by the pandemic, reads l’AFO’s website. The funding will be provided as non-repayable contributions of up to $50,000. Eligible non-profits include charities, social enterprises and cooperatives serving francophone communities in Ontario. "Francophone non-profit organizations are part of a community-based network that help expand the range of French-language services offered in the province and play an essential role in the social and cultural fabric of the francophone community," Minister of Francophone Affairs Caroline Mulroney said in a news release. "Many are struggling during this pandemic and it is important that the government support these organizations so that they can continue serving and helping francophones." The COVID-19 Relief Fund, announced in November 2020, will provide a total of $2 million over two years – $1 million per year – to address issues identified through consultations with francophone economic and community leaders, according to today's news release. There will be an information session about the Relief Fund on Jan. 22. To register, click here. Applications for funding will be accepted until March 12.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Capitol complex temporarily locked down Monday during a rehearsal for President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration after a fire in a homeless encampment roughly a mile away sent a plume of smoke into the air and caused security concerns in an already jittery city. But law enforcement officials said there was no threat to the public and the fire was not believed to be a threat to the inauguration. Local firefighters put out the blaze quickly. The evacuation of some participants and the lockdown were ordered by the acting chief of Capitol Police in an abundance of caution, officials said. Biden was not participating in the rehearsal, nor were other VIPs who will attend Wednesday's ceremony. But the fast decision to lock down underscores the fear that has gripped Washington since the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by pro-Trump rioters and prompted extraordinary measures ahead of the inauguration. Armed protests planned for this past weekend around the country were mostly a bust, but anxiety is still skyrocketing. U.S. Secret Service tightened security in and around the Capitol a week early in preparation, and the city centre is essentially on lockdown with streets blocked, high fencing installed and tens of thousands of National Guard and other law enforcement officers stationed around the area. But U.S. defence officials, worried about a potential insider attack or other threat from service members involved in securing the event, pushed the FBI to vet all of the 25,000 National Guard troops coming into the area. President Donald Trump has refused to attend the inauguration, the first time a sitting president has not attended since Andrew Jackson, though Vice-President Mike Pence will be there as well as other former presidents. Capitol police spokeswoman Eva Malecki said there were currently no fires on or within the campus. “Members and staff were advised to shelter in place while the incident is being investigated,” she said in a statement. Firefighters were called to the homeless encampment shortly before 10:15 a.m., where a woman who lived there had a portable heater with a flammable gas tank, fire department spokesman Vito Maggiolo said. The woman, who was injured but declined medical treatment, told firefighters that the flames spread quickly and her possessions were burned. The fire was extinguished almost immediately after firefighters arrived. Participants were ushered from the West Front of the Capitol. Those who had gathered for a walk-through, including a military band, were directed to head indoors and moved in the direction of a secure location inside the Capitol complex. People involved in the rehearsal said security officials yelled “this is not a drill.” The lockdown was lifted about an hour later. Five people died in the Jan. 6 riot, including a police officer. ___ Associated Press writers Zeke Miller and Michael Balsamo contributed to this report.

Stock markets got off to a slow start for the week despite news that the Chinese economy grew 2.3% in 2020 after a sharp contraction early in the year. Shares fell in London and Tokyo on Monday but advanced in Hong Kong, Paris and Shanghai. Most U.S. markets are closed for a national holiday. Investors appear to have grown increasingly wary over the deepening economic devastation from the pandemic despite hopes that COVID-19 vaccines and fresh aid for the U.S. economy might hasten a global recovery. In Britain, the FTSE 100 dropped 0.2% to close the day at 6,720.65. Germany's DAX edged 0.4% higher to 13,848.35 and the CAC 40 in Paris rose 0.1% to 5,617.27. China was the first country to suffer outbreaks of the new coronavirus and the first major economy to begin recovering as meanwhile the U.S., Europe and Japan are struggling with outbreaks. The National Bureau of Statistics said growth in the three months ending in December rose to 6.5% over a year earlier, up from the previous quarter’s 4.9%. The economy contracted at a 6.8% pace in the first quarter of 2020 as the country fought the pandemic with shutdowns and other restrictions. Some measures showed a slowing of activity in December, but “The big picture is still that activity remains strong, which is helping to support the labour market,” Stephen Innes of Axi said in a commentary. The Hang Seng in Hong Kong gained 1% to 28,862.77, while the Shanghai Composite index climbed 0.8% to 3,596.22. But gloom prevailed in other major regional markets. Tokyo's Nikkei 225 dropped 1% to 28,242.21 and the Kospi in South Korea lost 2.3% to 3,013.93. Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 declined 0.8% to 6,663.00. Shares fell in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. On Friday, the S&P 500 fell 0.7% to 3,768.25, with stocks of companies that most need a healthier economy taking some of the sharpest losses. It lost 1.5% for the week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 0.6% to 30,814.26, and the Nasdaq composite dropped 0.9% to 12,998.50. Treasury yields have been climbing on expectations the U.S. government will borrow much more to pay for the additional stimulus proposed by President-elect Joe Biden, in addition to improved economic growth and higher inflation. The yield on the 10-year Treasury zoomed above 1% last week for the first time since last spring and briefly topped 1.18% this week. In other trading, benchmark U.S crude oil lost 12 cents to $52.24 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent crude, the international standard, shed 20 cents to $54.90 per barrel. The dollar was trading at 103.67 Japanese yen, down from 103.88 yen on Friday. The euro slipped to $1.2076 from $1.2078. ___ AP Business Writer Joe McDonald in Beijing contributed. Elaine Kurtenbach, The Associated Press
