Good morning. The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Navanethem Pillay, a South Africa-born judge on the International Court of Justice, at an announcement in Oslo this morning. More on that below, along with Ottawa’s courtship of Angola and a Quebec village’s zeal for rodeo.

Former United Nations human rights chief Navanethem “Navi” Pillay, a judge on the International Court of Justice, won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday in Oslo, Norway.

The South Africa-born Pillay, 85 years old, was recognized for her efforts to promote peace and international law, said Jorgen Watne Frydnes, Chair of the Norwegian Nobel Committee.

Pillay’s work “is a source of hope and inspiration to all those who seek to bring about a more peaceful world,” Watne Frydnes said announcing her win.

Yesterday: The Canadian modernist poet Anne Carson, the new Nobel laureate in literature, was recognized for “her bold and inventive oeuvre that, in playful dialogue with the classical tradition, has created new forms for contemporary literature.”

Recap: Science reporter Ivan Semeniuk profiled the Nobel recipients in the categories of medicine, physics and chemistry.

Cold Lake First Nations issued the first legal challenge to the federal government over Ottawa’s decision to designate the Pacific Link oil pipeline a priority in the national interest that is worthy of fast-tracking. The project would carry one million barrels a day from Bruderheim, Alta., to Roberts Bank, B.C.

The context: Cold Lake sits in the middle of oil sands development in Northern Alberta. Prime Minister Mark Carney has repeatedly tied approval of Pacific Link to the carbon capture project called Pathways, which would include a pipeline that would transport carbon trapped at oil-sands facilities to an underground hub near Cold Lake, Alta. Concerns about a lack of consultation are at the heart of the community’s application for judicial review.

The legalese: Pacific Link last week became the first major project to be identified as a national priority under the federal Building Canada Act, which provides an accelerated route through regulatory approvals.

The federal government has declassified portions of a 40-year-old report on the resettlement of Nazi war criminals that reveal details of how dozens of people, including those suspected of collaboration with the Third Reich, were helped to come to Canada through a secret CIA program.

The latest: According to the newly unredacted text, the RCMP reported to Ottawa in 1954 “that some forty persons had been presented for admission” the previous year by the U.S. Army’s resettlement branch in Europe. Another section says that U.S. intelligence personnel “could well have assisted persons with war criminal background to immigrate to Canada.”

Billionaire investor Stephen Jarislowsky, a champion of corporate governance and former spy who has died at 101, made his name as a pioneer advocate for shareholder rights, engaging in public battles with CEOs, family businesses and boards of directors. Late in his career, he became a philanthropist who supported the study of democracy.

Obituary: The investment guru crusaded for shareholder rights and was a sharp-tongued critic of underperforming executives.

Opinion: Jarislowsky was the Leonardo da Vinci of the Canadian business world, a true polymath, business historian Joe Martin writes.
