    After three months of gains, Canada’s job market has suddenly stalled. Statistics Canada says the economy lost 42,000 jobs in August.

    02/09/2026 | 27 mins.
    Ottawa is extending the federal excise tax holiday on gasoline and diesel until 2027. Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne says the goal is to help Canadians with the cost of living. But businesses and consumers say the price of gas is still hitting their bottom lines.

    And: Court filings in a lawsuit against OpenAI and its CEO provide more detail on what happened the day of the shootings in Tumbler Ridge, B.C.. The lawsuits allege that even those with no physical injuries are suffering from what they witnessed in the attack in February.

    Carney says U.S. should stop insults, Nepal search, last captive whales leave, and more

    01/09/2026 | 27 mins.
    Prime Minister Mark Carney says trade talks with the U.S. can resume once the White House stops insulting Canada. He says recent jabs at Canada’s military are beneath the office of U.S. cabinet members.

    And: The death toll in the flooding in the Nepal-Tibet border region in the Himalayas has passed 1,000 people. Thirty Canadians are missing. But at least 300 people have been rescued from hydropower tunnels. And there’s hope that hundreds more could be sheltering there.

    Also: Canada’s last captive whales leave for the U.S.. Canada banned whale and dolphin captivity in 2019, but the animals at Marineland in Niagara Falls were allowed to stay. With the park closed, they needed somewhere else to go.

    And: The White House says it’s not a war, but Canadians aren’t taking kindly to the takeover of the name of Lake Ontario.
