Carney to meet with cabinet to weigh response to Trump's 35% tariff threat

Prime Minister Mark Carney will meet with his cabinet today for the first time since US President Donald Trump threatened to impose steep new tariffs on Canada. Trump said in a letter to Carney last week that the United States will put a 35 per cent tariff on Canadian goods starting Aug. 1. The White House says that new tariff wouldn't apply to goods that are compliant with the Canada-US-Mexico Agreement on trade. Canada has yet to respond formally to the latest threat, or to Trump's recent moves to impose lofty tariffs on copper imports and double existing levies on steel and aluminum. Carney and Trump agreed last month to work toward a new trade and security pact by July 21, but the US president unilaterally pushed back the timeline to secure a deal. Carney is also set to meet with Canada's premiers next week. This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 15, 2025.

First Nations to launch legal challenge against Ontario, federal bills 5 and C-5

TORONTO – Lawyers representing nine Ontario First Nations say they are launching a constitutional challenge against provincial and federal laws meant to fast-track infrastructure projects that the Indigenous communities say infringes upon their rights. Details of the legal challenge have not yet been made public, but the lawyers say they will reveal more at a press conference on Wednesday. The federal Bill C-5 allows cabinet to quickly grant federal approvals for big industrial projects such as mines, ports and pipelines by sidestepping existing laws, while Ontario's bill allows its cabinet to suspend provincial and municipal laws through the creation of so-called 'special economic zones.' Chief Sylvia Koostachin-Metatawabin of Attawapiskat First Nation, one of the communities involved in the legal challenge, says in a press release that governments are playing a dangerous game with her people's lands and their futures. Chief Todd Cornelius from Oneida Nation of the Thames says the First Nations involved in the challenge are not against all development, rather this is a battle between 'doing things recklessly and doing things right.' Both the federal and Ontario governments have said their laws are tools to counteract the effects of U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs by allowing Canadian development, such as natural resource development, to proceed more quickly.

Smith, Alberta Next panel begin town hall series to hear grievances about Ottawa

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith speaks during a news conference in Calgary on Friday, October 13, 2024. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Todd Korol Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and a hand-picked panel are set to hold the first in a series of town halls to address public concerns with the federal government. Some 650 people are expected at today's event in Red Deer as Smith and the 15 other members of the Alberta Next panel hear about grievances inspiring separatist sentiment in the province. The government is dedicating time at the event to several strategies it's pitching to wrest more control from the federal government, including pulling out of the Canada Pension Plan and withholding social services from some immigrants. There will also be an open question-and-answer period. Smith and panel members are set to hear feedback in Edmonton on Wednesday. The premier has said the panel will recommend ideas and policy proposals for a referendum after the town halls wrap up in October. This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 15, 2025.
