@ctvnews: As U.S. President Donald Trump signs a flurry of executive orders, escalating his trade war with Canada by banning certain products and imposing new tariffs, Unifor warns companies of “offshoring Canadian jobs” as Trump escalates trade war. Signed Tuesday, the new executive orders will completely block the import of some Canadian goods, including motorcycles, certain dairy products and a wide range of alcoholic beverages. The executive orders also add new 50 per cent tariffs to Canadian products like golf carts, desks and mattresses. Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc says the federal government is assessing the latest measures from the Trump administration. When 28-year-old Keyana McNeil, of Vancouver, learned that a young Canadian woman had been brutally beaten to death at a resort in Mexico, she nearly passed out. Her first thought: It could have been, it nearly was, me. In 2023, the brutalized body of 23-year-old Kiara was discovered in the laundry room of an all-inclusive resort in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. Her boyfriend, Ryan Friesen from Dawson Creek, B.C., was found fast asleep beside her body, his fists swollen. A Mexican court initially found him not guilty of femicide. Early in 2026, the acquittal was overturned with a judge finding Friesen guilty of killing Kiara, a decision he is now appealing while free in Canada. Toronto officials say the city has received an engineering report from the owners of Rogers Stadium assessing damage to the venue after last week’s storm. The city did not share details of the report’s finding but says it will continue to work with the stadium owner “throughout this process.” An unsafe building order was issued by the city after major thunderstorms wreaked havoc on the temporary stadium, collapsing parts of its north grandstands. #newsstories #canada #Ontario #USA #trump #carney #britishcolumbia
