Canada faces a critical economic crisis rooted in its asymmetrical trade dependence on the United States. According to Fox Business, approximately 68% of Canadian exports have gone to the U. S. this year, directly tying Canada’s national economic stability to political cycles in Washington. To make matters worse, the U.

In retaliation, Ottawa has implemented a “dollar-for-dollar” response, matching the exact economic volume of affected imports. More than 700 American products are subject to these retaliatory tariffs, including steel, aluminum, dairy, agricultural equipment, appliances, electronics, and paper products.

There are two new contenders for the world’s loudest bird – and scientists are not being quiet about it.

Senate passing the Protect College Sports Act on Monday and the bill’s fate in the House of Representatives unresolved, two of the PCSA’s leading backers on Tuesday underscored features of the bill that target college athlete agents. Randy Levine, vice chair of President Donald Trump’s Saving College Sports roundtable and president of the New York Yankees, and Cody Campbell, a Texas Tech booster who is a senior member of the roundtable and an oil-and-gas entrepreneur, insisted during a teleconference that the PCSA would prevent college athlete agents from taking excessive commissions and increase the likelihood that college athletes are actually paid for NIL deals.

Before anyone else says it, yes, there ain’t no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism, blah blah blah. Major league sports owners have basically always been hella rich foos with questionable ambitions, to say the least. The current moment feels different, however.
