4 days after the passenger plane plunged to the ground, criticism over the handling of the crash site in rebel-controlled eastern Ukraine showed no signs of slowing on Sunday. Key questions remain unanswered: What will happen to the remains of the 298 people aboard the plane that crashed Thursday? Where are the black boxes? And is there any hope investigators will be able to determine who’s responsible? Malaysia’s transportation minister said an international team was “effectively being prevented from entering the crash site,” adding in a statement that officials were concerned that “the sanctity of the crash site has been severely compromised.”

10:30- News Panel – Lisa Drew, Morning News Anchor and Paul McPhee, Managing Editor
People who normally use Guelph Transit buses to get around will have to find another means of transportation this morning. Members of Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1189 voted yesterday to reject a tentative contract agreement that was reached a week ago and endorsed by the union executive. Who’s being affected? / It was a busy weekend around the region – Ribfest in Kitchener, the Jazz Festival in Uptown Waterloo, Highland games in Cambridge – Should these events be spread out on different weekends? Do you get to it all? / The world’s second-richest man thinks you should work only 3 days a week – Would you? But there’s a catch: in exchange for working fewer days, we’d work for longer. Instead of retiring at 60 or 65, workers should work until the age of 70 or 75, the 74-year-old Slim said.
