A major US-Canada trade showdown erupts after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announces the suspension of trade negotiations with Washington. Carney says the latest US proposals are “unfair” and “uneconomic”, while a fresh wave of US tariffs on Canadian goods takes effect. Canada has vowed to respond dollar for dollar, escalating tensions between two major trading partners.

A freight train was surrounded by a massive wildfire near Armstrong, Northern Ontario, as devastating forest fires continued to spread across Canada. Dramatic onboard footage shows towering flames on both sides of the railway tracks, with crew members fearing the fire could overtake the locomotive. The crew later escaped safely after abandoning the locomotive, while authorities battled more than 120 active wildfires and disrupted rail operations across northwestern Ontario.
