Philadelphia bill could require earlier curfew for some teens this summer

PHILADELPHIA - Philadelphia City Council is debating lowering the city's curfew for all children ages 16 to 18.A bill introduced Thursday would change the curfew to 10 p.m. Any kids caught out after that time would be taken to curfew centers.Currently, 16 and 17-year-olds are allowed to stay out until midnight in Philadelphia.The proposed change comes after a deadly shooting on South Street killed three and inured nearly a dozen last weekend.Council member Katherine Gilmore Richardson, who introduced the bill, says the change will "help us keep more young people safe."Mayor Jim Kenney says amending the minor curfew law would take police officers off the street."I don't think resident of any neighborhood would be appreciative of officers leaving their post to accompany minors to a curfew center," Kenney said.The new curfew would be in effect until September 29, after the school year is in full swing.Under the current curfew, 14- and 15-year-olds are required to be indoors by 10 p.m.

How much will home prices drop as interest rates rise? Depends where you live

interest rates rise and the post-pandemic market starts to materialize.But just how low prices will go depends on what part of the country you’re living in, with a recent report from Desjardins Economic Studies suggesting cities that saw the most growth in the pandemic now have the furthest to fall.Major Canadian housing markets including Toronto and Vancouver saw less sales activity and even price drops in April and May as the Bank of Canada began raising interest rates over the past three months. Bidding war no more — How to make an offer in Canada’s cooling housing market This “chillier wind,” as RBC economist Robert Hogue dubbed it in a report last week, is expected to continue driving home values down from their pandemic-era highs as demand softens and housing inventories are given time to rebuild.Randall Bartlett, senior director of Canadian Economics at Desjardins, tells Global News that rising interest rates are the “pin that’s bursting the housing bubble that developed during the pandemic.”The Desjardins report released this past week predicts that from the peak of national home prices in February of this year to the end of 2023, the average sale price in Canada will drop 15 per cent.Virtually all markets are expected to see some drops, but some could see value erode more rapidly.In the Maritimes, for example, prices in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are expected to fall 20 per cent over that timeframe.
