The moment U.S. tariffs came into effect this morning, so did the Canadian response.
Canada will be implementing 25% tariffs against $155 billion of American products.
Starting with $30 billion worth of goods immediately, and the remaining $125 billion in 21 days’ time.
Today, I wrote to the governors, senators and congressmen and women from New York, Michigan and Minnesota putting them on notice that Ontario is prepared to add a 25 per cent surcharge to the electricity we export to their states if President Trump’s tariffs remain in place.
If we have to, we won’t hesitate to increase the charge or shut the electricity off completely.
Chief Adviser Prof. Muhammad Yunus visited three former torture cells and secret prisons in Dhaka (Agargaon, Kachukhet, and Uttara) on Wednesday. He was accompanied by the Advisory Council, Commission of Inquiry on Enforced Disappearances, victims, and media. #ChiefAdviser
I must say, reading through the UN Bangladesh report, not only is it a detailed indictment of senior echelons of the Awami League government itself, it also presents a devastating picture of the Awami League as a party, many of whose student and youth activists collaborated with the police in the violent suppression of the protests.
#Bangladesh: Thousands of people, including children, have suffered life-altering injuries during last year’s protests.
Advancing accountability & human rights will be fundamental to achieving the transformation the country needs - @volker_turk presents @UNHumanRights report.
#Bangladesh: as many as 1,400 people may have been killed during last year’s protests, vast majority of whom were shot by security forces - finds @UNHumanRights report.
Accountability & justice are essential for national healing & the future of Bangladesh.

Let's remember Charlottesville—a mob of people carrying tiki torches, spewing anti-semitic hate and what did Trump say? “There were fine people on each side.”
It's time to turn the page, stand for our democracy, and to end the chaos.
“There is no state in this country where it’s legal to kill a baby after it’s born.”
What a fact check for ABC to have to make during a debate…
