Trump to pause promised tariffs for 30 days after speaking with Trudeau | CBC News Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Monday that U.S. President Donald Trump will hold off on levying tariffs on Canada for at least 30 days.

Canada Post temporarily laying off striking workers, union says The union representing Canada Post workers says the Crown corporation has been laying striking employees off as the labour action by more than 55,000 workers approaches the two-week mark.
