This recognition highlights ethos strategy’s commitment to making sustainability a strategic lever for a responsible and forward-looking mining industry.

MONTRÉAL, Nov. 5, 2026 /CNW/ — ethos strategy is proud to announce that it has won the award in the Excellence in Sustainable Development category at the 2026 Xplor Recognition Gala, organized by the Quebec Mineral Exploration Association (AEMQ).

This recognition highlights ethos strategy’s expertise, strategic vision, and commitment to guiding mining companies toward responsible and sustainable practices.

Based in Rouyn-Noranda, ethos strategy supports Quebec, Canadian, and international mining companies in developing their projects in Quebec. Thanks to its in-depth knowledge of the Quebec business environment and a 360-degree view of the mining industry, the firm integrates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into business decisions, integrating local realities and the expectations of communities and stakeholders.

“Receiving this award is a source of immense pride for our company. It recognizes our belief that sustainable development must be at the heart of strategic decisions, right from the earliest stages of a project. Doing business in Quebec requires an understanding that goes beyond technical and economic considerations. Our role is to support companies in navigating this reality by aligning their business strategies with ESG challenges and opportunities, while creating sustainable value for communities.”
– Cindy Valence, President and Co-founder of ethos strategy

A Concrete Commitment to Advancing Mining Industry Practices

ethos strategy advocates for an approach in which ESG factors are integrated into strategic decisions to turn them into genuine drivers of performance, risk management, and shared value creation.

This commitment is also reflected in the firm’s own practices, which are grounded in accountability, transparency, and continuous improvement. In particular, the firm prioritizes the principles of the circular economy and is actively involved in its community, including as a founding member of the Mining Industry Social Investment Fund (FISIM), an initiative of Centraide Abitibi-Témiscamingue and Nord-du-Québec aimed at generating sustainable benefits in mining communities.

Committed to contributing to the evolution of industry practices, ethos strategy also participates in knowledge transfer. In partnership with the Quebec Mining Association (AMQ), the firm has developed a specialized training on integrating ESG principles throughout the life cycle of mining projects.

Beyond the distinction itself, this award also reflects the trust placed in ethos strategy by its clients, collaborators, and partners.

“We are particularly proud to receive this recognition as our company continues to grow. We share this award with our clients, collaborators, and partners who place their trust in us and who share our ambition to do things differently. We believe that a project’s sustainable success depends as much on the quality of the decisions made, as on the strength of the relationships built with communities. It is this vision that will continue to guide our actions.”
– Francesca Rios, VP of Operations and co-founder of ethos strategy

This recognition marks an important milestone in ethos strategy’s journey and reinforces its commitment to continued growth, to promoting Quebec’s expertise, and to actively contributing to the evolution of mining industry practices.

CORAL GABLES, Fla., Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — NatGold Digital Ltd. (“NatGold” or the “Company”) today announced that it has requested the delisting of the NatGold Token (NATG) from MEXC, a global cryptocurrency exchange where NATG is currently listed, with immediate effect.

The decision follows the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s announcement of an order issued by its Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) under the Combating Russian Money Laundering Act, prohibiting U.S. financial institutions from processing funds transfers involving MEXC Global.

NatGold is a U.S. company whose wholly owned subsidiary, NatGold Integrity Vault LLC, is registered with FinCEN as a money services business. The Company is acting ahead of the order’s effective date.

NatGold is in advanced discussions with multiple regulatory-compliant exchanges and venues  serving global markets, including the United States, and intends to replace MEXC as soon as possible. Once new listings are confirmed, NATG token holders will be advised of the arrangements and encouraged to register accounts and link their wallets, as applicable, to continue trading.

What to Look for in an Online GLP-1 Provider: Meant Outlines Five Questions Worth Asking Before Signing Up

Published

on

By

MANASSAS, Va., Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As more telehealth companies offer GLP-1 care, the options can look alike from the outside, and telling them apart takes more than a glance at a landing page. Meant is sharing five questions consumers can ask when choosing an online GLP-1 provider, along with how it approaches each one.

Five Questions Worth Asking

Who makes the clinical decisions? A trustworthy provider should be clear about which licensed clinicians review each person’s information. At Meant, those decisions are made by licensed providers through its clinical partner, OpenLoop Health.Is there a real evaluation first? Look for a health-history review before anything is prescribed, and for plain language that a prescription is never guaranteed. Meant’s online assessment covers health history, current medications, and goals.Can the company’s credentials be checked? Independent certifications are one signal consumers can verify for themselves. Meant displays the seal for its LegitScript certification on its website.Is it clear who fills prescriptions? Providers should be open about the pharmacies they work with and whether those pharmacies are licensed in the United States.Is ongoing support spelled out, limits included? Good providers explain what follow-up looks like and who handles which questions. Meant pairs care with an optional Care Coach, and medical questions go to the care team.

A certification is a transparency signal, not a government approval or a promise about results, and no checklist replaces a conversation with a licensed clinician. Meant does not diagnose or prescribe, and treatment is not guaranteed for every applicant.

Take a Closer Look

Consumers who want to see how the assessment, clinical oversight, and coaching fit together can visit Meant‘s website and compare the details against the questions above.

About Meant

Meant is a health and wellness technology company focused on personalized GLP-1 weight-care support delivered through telehealth. The platform combines an online clinical assessment, licensed oversight through OpenLoop Health, Care Coach support, and supplemental wellness resources. Meant does not itself diagnose or prescribe; clinical decisions are made by its clinical partners. Learn more at meant.health.

Spanning summer and autumn across three successive photography tours, the “Picturesque Anhui • Imaging Anhui” 2026 Anhui Photography Season officially wrapped up on November 4. Co-hosted by the Fédération Internationale de l’Art Photographique (FIAP), the Anhui Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, and the Foreign Affairs Office of Anhui Provincial People’s Government, the event drew 116 photographers from 38 countries and regions. They visited 46 distinctive cultural and tourism attractions across five cities: Hefei, Chizhou, Anqing, Huangshan and Xuancheng. Through their lenses, they presented Anhui’s landscapes, cultural heritage and vibrant everyday life to the world.

Looking back on the three sessions: The first session kicked off in Hefei. Photographers documented the city’s innovation-driven urban landscape as well as the picturesque scenery and intangible cultural heritage of Chizhou’s ancient villages. The second session took them deep into Huangshan and Anqing. They explored time-honored Huizhou villages, magnificent mountains and Huangmei Opera culture, immersing themselves in Huizhou traditions and the cultural charm of the Yangtze River region in western Anhui. The concluding third session was held in Huangshan and Xuancheng, focusing on brilliant autumn hues, Huizhou‑style ancient architecture, and the traditional craftsmanship behind the Four Treasures of the Study.

From lush summer greens to rich autumn colours, the photographers produced more than 11,000 high‑resolution photographs. Reflecting the unique perspectives of international participants, these images will be disseminated globally in diverse forms. They will help tell compelling stories of Anhui’s cultural tourism and further boost the province’s international profile.
