WASHINGTON (AP) — There’s little that Donald Trump has cherished more in his second term than tariffs, a symbol of his imperious approach to the presidency. He has raised and lowered them at will, rewriting the rules of global commerce and daring anyone to stop him. Now that may be over, the victim of a stunning rebuke from the Supreme Court on Friday. After more than a year of expanding his power, Trump had run into a rare limit. It was a loss that Trump couldn’t quite accept, and the president claimed he would use other laws to impose alternative…

Eric Dane, known for his roles on “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Euphoria,” died this week from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis at age 53. The fatal nervous system disease, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, killed Dane less than a year after he announced his diagnosis. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, ALS is rare. In 2022, there were nearly 33,000 estimated cases, say researchers, who project that cases will rise to more than 36,000 by 2030. The disease is slightly more common in men than in women and tends to strike in midlife, between the ages of 40 and…

But only two competitors — Dutch gold medallist Antoinette Rijpma-de Jong (1:54.09) and silver medallist Ragne Wiklund of…
Canadian labour leaders and government officials are reacting with caution after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down former President Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs, calling the ruling a legal setback for the White House but not a solution to the escalating trade pressures facing Canadian industries. The decision, released Friday, found that the IEEPA does not grant the president authority to impose broad “economic emergency” tariffs—measures that had drawn widespread criticism from trade experts and industry groups in both countries. While the ruling curtails one avenue of presidential tariff power, Canadian officials say the broader trade conflict remains far from…
TORONTO — An Ontario man accused of laundering hundreds of millions of dollars in assets for an international drug smuggling ring allegedly led by former Olympian Ryan Wedding has been denied bail. Rolan Sokolovski sought to be released ahead of a hearing that will determine whether he’ll be extradited to the United States, where he faces charges over his alleged role in the organization. Sokolovski’s legal team proposed to have him live with three of his sureties if released on bail and be placed on house arrest with round-the-clock GPS monitoring, among other conditions. Prosecutors opposed his release, however, arguing…

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The Environmental Protection Agency on Friday weakened limits on mercury and other toxic emissions from coal-fired power plants, the Trump administration’s latest effort to boost the fossil fuel industry by paring back clean air and water rules. Toxic emissions from coal- and oil-fired plants can harm the brain development of young children and contribute to heart attacks and other problems in adults. The plants are also a major source of greenhouse gas emissions that drive climate change. The EPA announced the repeal of the tightened Mercury and Air Toxics Standards rule, or MATS, at a massive…
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump warned on Friday that limited strikes against Iran are possible even as the country’s top diplomat said Tehran expects to have a proposed deal ready in the next few days following nuclear talks with the United States. In response to a reporter’s question on whether the U.S. could take limited military action as the countries negotiate, Trump said, “I guess I can say I am considering that.” A few hours later, he told reporters that Iran “better negotiate a fair deal.” Earlier Friday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in a TV interview that…
