U.S. President Donald Trump criticized Canada’s lumber and dairy markets today – saying there is a 250 per cent tariff on those products. He threatened to impose a reciprocal tariff at the same rate – within days. It’s not clear where that percentage comes from.
And: Customers are accusing Sunwing of not compensating them when flights were cancelled. Federal rules say airlines must re-book customers within 48 hours – even if it means putting them on a competitor’s plane.
Also: Is measles making a comeback? Canada has had more cases already in 2025, than in all of 2024. Chief Public Health Officer Theresa Tam says more people getting vaccinated could stop the disease in its tracks.

Plus: Canada is getting a new prime minister, Canada’s cyber expertise in Baltic states, business uncertainty in tariff world and more.
