Trump promises 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports — including from Canada

U.S. President Donald Trump said he will announce on Monday that the United States will impose 25 per cent tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports, including from Canada and Mexico, as well as other import duties later in the week.

"Any steel coming into the United States is going to have a 25 per cent tariff," he told reporters Sunday on Air Force One as he flew from Florida to New Orleans to attend the Super Bowl. When asked about aluminum, he responded, "aluminum, too" will be subject to the trade penalties.

Trump also reaffirmed that he would announce "reciprocal tariffs" —"probably Tuesday or Wednesday" — meaning that the U.S. would impose import duties on products in cases where another country has levied duties on U.S. goods.

Over $1M worth of olive oil stolen from transport company in Montreal

Montreal police say over $1 million worth of olive oil was stolen after a delivery involving two transport companies in the city never arrived at its destination in Ontario.

Police say Transport Q-Trans had a contract to deliver more than 100 palettes of olive oil to an Ontario client, which did not receive the shipment as expected earlier this week. Police say Transport Q-Trans had transferred the product to a second company in Montreal it hired to complete the delivery because it had special heated trailers to store the olive oil.

Contractor in charge of failed Kingston causeway fix suing feds, engineering firm for $8M

The contractor hired to rehabilitate a century-old bridge in Kingston, Ont., that was demolished after a failed repair job is suing the federal government and an engineering firm that investigated the incident for more than $8 million.

But the contractor, Landform Civil Infrastructures Inc. (LCI), is itself the target of several lawsuits as the parties involved in the project try to recoup costs and point fingers over who's to blame. The company alleges the government is withholding payment and "improperly" told third parties LCI was responsible for the buckling that destroyed the LaSalle Causeway's lift bridge.

Canadians react strongly to Trump's threats of annexation

U.S. President Donald Trump once again mused about Canada becoming the 51st state.

A couple months ago, most people were shrugging it off as a joke. But now, it's clear that Trump is very serious. "It's got the humour equal to that of pulling off a bomb threat in an airport," Dalhousie University associate professor Robert Huish said.

Tate McRae, Josh Ross lead nominees for country-loving 2025 Junos

Alberta pop sensation Tate McRae and Nashville up-and-comer Josh Ross lead the list of nominees with five apiece for the 2025 Junos, which were released on Tuesday and highlight the rise of both country and Punjabi music in the Canadian mainstream.

McRae isn't exactly a newcomer to the Junos field, but she has seen quick success. Since her first nomination in 2021, she's never been left off the board — though she only managed to take home her first statues in 2024.

This year, she's vying for many of the top awards to be given out in Vancouver on March 30 at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT). Her 2023 album Think Later and its single Exes put her in the running for fan choice, single, artist, album and pop album of the year.

City of Summerside calls off blackouts, saying Maritime Electric has reversed plan to slash power

Summerside Mayor Dan Kutcher criticized Maritime Electric for its handling of the city's power supply, after officials were told their electricity would be drastically reduced Tuesday night. Although planned rolling blackouts were later canceled, the city was initially informed its power would drop from 28 megawatts to just two. Kutcher claimed Maritime Electric prioritized supplying 14 megawatts to Cavendish Farms, a major food processor, over Summerside residents. He expressed frustration that while many locals work at Cavendish Farms, residents were left in the dark and cold, worried about their families.
