Here on the American side of the 49th parallel, Canadian currency is somewhat of an enigma. We refer to the Canadian dollar as “the loonie” for the one-dollar coin’s depiction of waterfowl, but “loonie” is hardly a term of endearment. Their colorful and bilingual banknotes draw sharp contrast to the austere greenbacks stateside, resembling Monopoly money more than our own.
One aspect of Canadian funds is no joke. The Royal Canadian Mint produces the Maple Leaf gold coin, a one-ounce coin of gold bullion with a face value of $50 CAD but a market value of much more. It is 24 carats and 99.99-percent fine—the purest gold coin in the world. Coin collectors and serious investors alike are after these precious coins. What can you do with Maple Leaf gold coins to grow your wealth? The answer: just about anything.
Keep It Under Lock and Key
Most people who invest in gold send it straight to a safe-deposit box at their bank. While many people who “invest in gold” do so through buying gold futures or exchange-traded funds, some investors prefer the certainty of investing in physical gold. Thanks to its super-high fineness, Maple Leaf coins are the most reliable gold investment on the market. Once you make the purchase, however, physical gold belongs in a bank or a brokerage firm—not on display in your office.
Long-Term Investment
It’s not 1849—there’s no get-rich-quick scheme to this gold. Investing in precious metals is about saving for the long run. With their unmatched purity, Maple Leaf coins are best equipped to run that race for you from the comfort of a precious metals self-directed IRA. Even as an American investor, you can diversify your IRA with Canadian funds, and the Maple Leaf coin is the best way to do it. As much as you may want to admire the beauty of these coins, you’re best off putting the money to work in a retirement account alongside other unorthodox but lucrative investments.
Give the Gift of Gold
Say that you already have all the wealth you need. One thing you can do with Maple Leaf gold coins is give them as gifts to children or grandchildren so that they can enjoy the gains that come with this gold. In addition to the standard one-ounce coin, the Royal Canadian Mint issues Maple Leaf coins in smaller denominations as well, making them perfect for gift-giving that will pay off years down the road.

Press Conference by Tom Fletcher, Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, on
--------------------------------------------
UN Emergency Relief Coordinator Tom Fletcher said, “The pace and the scale of the funding cuts that we've faced are, of course, a seismic shock” to the humanitarian sector.
Addressing the press, Fletcher said, “We were already overstretched, under-resourced, and literally under attack with last year being the deadliest year on record to be a humanitarian worker. But of course, it's far tougher for the people who we serve. 300 million plus right now need humanitarian support.”
He stressed, “Many will die because that aid is drying up. And across the humanitarian community, programs are being stopped right now. Staff are being let go right now; I think 10 percent of NGO colleagues were laid off in the course of February. And across the UN family and our partners, we're making tough choices day to day about which lives we will have to prioritize, which lives we have to try to save. And so, I think this period ahead, the weeks actually ahead will define how we emerge as a humanitarian movement from this sustained challenge.”
He said, “I'll receive at the end of this week, on Friday, detailed plans from all of our humanitarian coordinators. So, the lead humanitarian official in each of our crisis countries, drawn together by their humanitarian country team across agencies and NGOs on how they will change their strategies to make this new challenge.”
He continued, “But behind that regrouping, we'll also have to renew what we do as well. We'll have to build fresh arguments, fresh allies for our work. We'll have to find new sources of funding. We'll have to fight back. We'll have to reimagine what we do, and - this is an important point and easy thing to say, much harder to actually deliver - we will have to shift power towards our humanitarian leaders in country and towards the people that we serve, the communities that we work with on the frontlines of the humanitarian crisis.”
He added, “So, we need a humanitarian decade, we'll have to win afresh that argument for humanitarian and international solidarity. And that is a cause which I believe is mightier than year to year fluctuations and political changes.”
He highlighted, “We have been reliant in recent years – over reliant - on US funding. Almost half of our appeals have been funded by the American taxpayers. And it is important to recognize that we shouldn't ever take that for granted. Particularly, in a period of economic difficulty and in a period when, when many governments are in retreat from the world.”
Answering a question, he said, “I can't put a precise number on what the US cuts, the difference that would make. But what I can say is that over years and decades now, the US has been a humanitarian superpower, and the US funding has saved hundreds of millions of lives. And so, I hope that over time, we can make the case afresh for why that work is so important, and that we can ensure that funding is resumed so we can carry on saving that number of lives.”

UN80
This morning, in a press encounter, the Secretary-General said that during this 80th anniversary year of the United Nations, it is essential that an organizational system as complex and crucial as ours subjects itself to rigorous and regular scrutiny to assess its fitness for purpose in carrying out its goals efficiently.
This is why he has informed Member States that he is officially launching what we call the UN80 Initiative.
The Secretary-General has appointed a dedicated internal Task Force led by the Under-Secretary-General for Policy, Guy Ryder, and composed of principals representing the entire UN system.
The objective will be to present to Member States proposals in three areas: first, rapidly identifying efficiencies and improvements in the way we work; second, thoroughly reviewing the implementation of all mandates given to us by Member States, which have significantly increased in recent years; and third, a strategic review of deeper, more structural changes and programme realignment within the UN System.
OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY
The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warns that after 11 days of no humanitarian assistance entering Gaza, the crucial progress made during the first six weeks of the ceasefire continues to unravel. Across the Gaza Strip, it is becoming more difficult for people to have decent and sufficient food, water, medical services and other vital items.
Efforts to restore the health system in Gaza continue, but progress is slow. In North Gaza governorate, only 16 per cent of health service points are functioning either fully or partially. That includes three out of five hospitals, six out of 50 medical points, and four of over two dozen primary healthcare centres.
Major challenges also persist in solid waste management. Overflowing trash is creating unsanitary living conditions and obviously, heightening public health risks.

United Nations Video: UN80 Initiative: UN Efficiency and Structural Reforms - UN Chief's Media Stakeout | United Nations
Informal comments to the media by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, on the launch of his UN80 Initiative.
-----------------------------
Secretary-General António Guterres announced the launch of the UN80 Initiative to rapidly identify efficiencies and improvements, review the implementation of all mandates given to the Organization by Member States, and conduct a strategic review of “deeper, more structural changes and programme realignment in the UN System.”
Speaking to reporters today (12 Mar) in New York, the Secretary-General said, “the United Nations has never been more needed,” but noted that “resources are shrinking across the board – and they have been for a long time.”
He said it was “essential that an organizational system as complex and crucial as the United Nations – subjects itself to rigorous and regular scrutiny to assess its fitness for purpose in carrying out its goals efficiently.”
The objectives, Guterres said, “will be to present to Member States proposals in three areas: First, rapidly identifying efficiencies and improvements in the way we work. Second, thoroughly reviewing the implementation of all mandates given to us by Member States, which have significantly increased in recent years. Third, a strategic review of deeper, more structural changes and programme realignment in the UN System.”
He stressed that “budgets at the United Nations are not just numbers on a balance sheet – they are a matter of life and death for millions around the world,” and said, “we must ensure value for money while advancing shared values.”
Taking a journalist’s question on Ukraine, the Secretary-General said, “we’ll welcome a ceasefire in Ukraine. Too many people have died. A ceasefire is indeed a positive thing, and we hope that it will materialize. And we hope that it will pave the way for peace, a just peace. And you know what are the parameters that we consider relevant for a just peace: the Charter, international law and the resolutions of the General Assembly.”
On the tariffs being impose by the United States on other countries, he said, “we live in a global economy. Everything is interlinked. And obviously, one of the great advantages of having a situation of free trade is to create the conditions for all countries to benefit. When we enter into a trade war, I believe all will lose.”
On the cuts by the Unites States and other countries on humanitarian aid, Guterres said, “we can adapt the UN, consolidate the UN, make the UN more effective and more cost-effective. What we cannot do is solve the problems of the people that we no longer are able to assist, for lack of resources.”
A UN80 Initiative dedicated internal Task Force will be led by Under-Secretary-General Guy Ryder and composed of principals representing the entire UN system.

United Nations Video: Haiti: Capital at Risk as Gangs Expand Control, UN Expert Warns | Press Conference | United Nations
The High Commissioner for Human Rights' Designated Expert on Human Rights in Haiti, William O’Neill, today (11 Mar) told journalists in New York that the risk of the capital, Port-au-Prince “falling under gang control is palpable.”
O’Neill said that despite efforts of the Haitian National Police and the Multinational Security Support Mission (MSS), “these violent criminal groups continued to extend and consolidate their hold even beyond the capital. They kill, rape, terrorize, set fire to homes, orphanages, schools, hospitals, places of worship; they recruit children, and they infiltrate all spheres of society. All this with the utmost impunity. And sometimes as many sources point out, with the complicity of powerful actors.”
The human rights expert said, “violence has internally displaced over one million people, and thousands more have been displaced just in the last few weeks. They have nowhere to go,” and added that “hunger and sexual violence are widespread” in the makeshift camps.
O’Neill told journalists that “the fight against impunity and corruption are major obstacles to dismantling gangs,” and the Haitian state “must make the fight against these two scourges an absolute priority.”
The fight against gangs, he cautioned, “must be conducted also in strict compliance with international human rights law, particularly the right to life,” and “no circumstances, however exceptional, can justify the violation of this fundamental right.”
O’Neill called on the international community to “act without delay to implement the commitments it has already made, particularly with regard to the sanctions regime, to the arms embargo and the substantial reinforcement of the Multinational Security Support Mission, all done in compliance with international rights law.”
Responding to a journalist’s question, he said, “there's nowhere near enough Haitian police, and they don't have the right equipment either in terms of being able to move around at night and effectively. So, that's a big challenge right now, but I don't think it's insuperable. We're not talking about thousands and thousands of whatever, but just total of 2500 international police. Get a few more Haitian national police, but also with the right equipment. I think you could have a huge impact on the gangs.”
In October 2022, the Haitian government appealed for the immediate deployment of an “international specialised force” to temporarily reinforce the efforts of the Haitian National Police (HNP) to combat gangs. In July 2023, ten months after Haiti’s initial request, Kenya agreed to lead a multinational force to the country, pledging to deploy 1,000 police officers. At least nine other countries—primarily from Africa and Latin America and the Caribbean—subsequently stated their intention to participate in the force.
As of today, the MMS remains severely understaffed.

President Trump says he’s imposing tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China in part because they’re failing to prevent the smuggling of the synthetic opioid fentanyl into the United States.
Fentanyl is used in medical settings for pain relief but when it’s abused the drug is deadly. Fentanyl killed more than 70,000 Americans in 2023 alone. Most of it is made in Mexico and smuggled across the border into the US.

This was the moment the former president of the Philippines was arrested as he arrived at Manila’s international airport.
Rodrigo Duterte had been arriving from Hong Kong when he was detained on Tuesday morning after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued a warrant for his arrest over his brutal ‘War on Drugs’ regime.
The former leader is accused of crimes against humanity over his illegal drug crackdowns, in which as many as 30,000 people were killed.
The controversial politician admitted to an inquiry in 2024 that he had a “death squad” of gangsters who killed other criminals when he was mayor of Davao.
But has always vehemently denied that he authorised police to shoot suspects when he became president in 2016.

Syria's central government has signed a deal with the Kurdish-led authority that controls the country's northeast. It's a major breakthrough for Interim President Ahmed Al-Sharaa. It comes as the defence ministry says it's completed its operation against supporters of ousted president Bashar Al-Assad in his coastal heartland.

More than a thousand people are reported to have died in the last few days - most of them civilians from the Alawite minority sect Assad belongs to.
The violence erupted along the Mediterranean coast on Thursday when Assad loyalists launched a coordinated assault on security forces in Jableh.
Fighting quickly spread to Tartus and Latakia - formerly an Assad stronghold - as the government moved to contain the insurgency, helped by fighters from across the country. Then the revenge killings began.
According to a human rights organisation 545 civilians were killed in Latakia and 262 in Tartus.
While in the Hama countryside 156 people were killed and 10 in the city of Homs.
