President Donald Trump’s escalating trade war with Canada is raising fresh concerns in battleground states ahead of the November midterms. The U. S. and Canada have imposed tariffs on billions of dollars’ worth of goods, while Washington has also banned nearly $1 billion in Canadian imports, including alcohol, dairy products and motorcycles. The latest measures took effect Sept. 29 as negotiations remain unresolved. Trump says the tariffs will bring manufacturing back to the United States and protect American industries. But businesses could cut production, consumers could face higher prices and manufacturers could delay investments.

OTTAWA – Espionage is a deadly serious and generally misunderstood business, and it’s critical for Canadian politicians thinking about starting a foreign spy service to decide “with their eyes wide open,” a new study says. “Virtually no Canadian knows how espionage is actually done,” says the paper by former Canadian intelligence officials Alan Barnes and Geoff St. John. “Romantic, facile notions predominate. Those bemused — or deceived — by the fictions of page and screen would benefit by learning how espionage is really done.”The study is being published this month on the website of the Policy Insights Forum, the research wing of the lobbying firm Samuel Associates. The federal government is preparing a long-awaited update of its national security strategy while the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians examines Canada’s foreign intelligence gathering capabilities.

Potentially a sign of things to come, the season’s first official -20°C of the year arrived a bit later than normal. Two areas in the Far North registered morning low temperatures in the minus-20s on Sunday, Oct. 4, marking the first time Canada has seen such a cold reading this season. DON’T MISS: With a 'super' El Nino, does that guarantee late-fall warmth in Canada? A pair of minus-20s on the boardMargaret Lake, Yukon, and Mould Bay, N. W. T., each dipped below the minus-20 mark on Sunday morning. Margaret Lake, which is about 275 km northeast of Dawson City, dropped down to -22.0°C to see this season’s coldest temperature across Canada. The site’s location at the foot of nearby mountains may have helped accentuate the morning’s chill. Mould Bay reached -20.9°C around the same time as Arctic air spilled over the island airport located in the Far North. The dual achievement arrived a little later than normal, and it’s the latest first -20°C reading we’ve seen in Canada since 2023. The country’s first minus-20 readings arrived in Nunavut during the past two years: in Eureka on Sept. 29, 2025, and in Alert on Sept. 27, 2024.
