Trudeau’s last day, Canada’s tariff fight, ceasefire uncertainty, and more

Mark Carney will be sworn in as prime minister tomorrow in Ottawa. So will his cabinet – which will be slimmed down from the 37 ministers current Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has. We’ll have the details of what we know so far… who’s in, who’s out, and when the next election might be called. Spoiler alert: expect it soon.

And: Federal Finance Minister Dominic Leblanc and Ontario Premier Doug Ford are in Washington meeting with the commerce secretary, as Canada tries to get some concessions on the tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump. Other premiers are designing their own plans for how to combat tariffs, and they aren’t only worried about ones from the U.S. – Chinese tariffs on some Canadian goods come into effect next week.

Also: Ceasefire or no? The messages coming out of Russia are mixed, at best. Russian President Vladimir Putin says he is open to a ceasefire, but has laid out a long list of things that should be on the table.

Plus: Ontario measles cases jump more than 100 per cent in two weeks, small businesses navigate tariffs and countertariffs, and more.
