Bringing pot-laced brownies to work has led to the firing of two public works employees in Hamilton.

The employees were suspended following the incident that occurred at a public works yard prior to the Christmas holidays and were fired at noon on Wednesday.

A public works spokeswoman said a third employee had required medical attention for an adverse reaction after "unknowingly" consuming a brownie that contained a substance later determined to be cannabis.

Hamilton Woman In Ontario Keeps Husband’s Corpse in Bedroom for 6 Months Hoping for Resurrection

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
A devoutly religious Canadian Christian woman, Kaling Wald, kept her husband’s decomposing corpse in their bedroom for six months because she believed God would resurrect him.

According to CTV News, Wald’s  husband, Peter, suffered from Diabetes and did not seek treatment when his foot became infected, because he believed God would heal him.

Peter’s health deteriorated, and he went into a coma in March and died before the end of the month.

Reports state that Wald and her 5 children, who are between the ages of 11 and 22, “thought Peter would be resurrected and therefore kept the door locked and waited for him to come to life.” They prayed fervently everyday for the miracle to manifest.

After failing to get off to a quick start and a nearly poor finish, the Boston Bruins rallied for a victory that they found difficult to celebrate.

Dougie Hamilton scored 3:39 into overtime, giving the Bruins a 2-1 win over Winnipeg on Friday night after giving the Jets a four-minute power play late in regulation.

“I think we really wanted a good start, didn’t have it and squeaked the two points like we have in the past,” said Hamilton, who also had an assist on Milan Lucic’s goal that tied it early in the third period. “I don’t know how we do it, but two points is two points, I guess.”

Calgary Stampeders Beat Hamilton Tiger Cats To The 102nd GreyCup Summit

There was a very brief moment Sunday evening when Calgary Stampeders fan Clint Noble thought the Grey Cup was slipping through his team's fingers.

It didn't last long -- a penalty that nullified a Brandon Banks touchdown late in the game put a welcome end to the drama as the Stampeders defeated the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 20-16 to capture the 102nd Grey Cup at B.C. Place.

With 35 seconds left, the stadium erupted in cheers and gasps as Banks returned a punt into the end zone, but an illegal block penalty scuttled the play.

"When it's live, you don't really see it on the replay, so it's hard to say if it was legit," Noble, 28 said of the penalty. "There were a few calls the other way earlier that were controversial, too."
Calgarian Merlin Radke noticed the penalty before Banks had even finished running.
"I saw the flag drop right away so I kind of sat back and laughed," said Radke, 51.
