Mexico Shatters
a 20-Year U.S. Monopoly ? Chooses Canada Instead! = Apr 1
Canada just broke a 20-year U.S. monopoly in Mexico?s potato
market as Mexican buyers turn to Canadian exports, led by PEI?s
massive potato industry, in a move that could reshape North
American trade and reduce dependence on U.S. supply chains. This
deep dive covers Canada?Mexico trade, PEI farmers, CUSMA
tensions, Mark Carney?s diversification strategy, and how this
quiet deal may signal a much bigger shift in global agricultural
and WTO trade power dynamics.

Trump PANICS &
ADMITS Canada?s Response Is HURTING Its Economy - Apr 1
Canada?s economic response to U.S. tariffs is now showing real
and measurable impact, and new reports from the United States
are beginning to confirm it. What started as a shift in policy
and consumer behavior has evolved into a broader structural
change that is affecting trade flows, industries, and economic
relationships between the two countries.
According to recent U.S. trade data and official reports
presented in Washington, exports from the United States to
Canada have dropped significantly, while imports have also
declined sharply. These changes suggest that Canada?s
coordinated response ? including procurement policies, shifting
consumer demand, and targeted restrictions on American products
? is now creating pressure within the U.S. economy itself.
From the removal of American alcohol from Canadian shelves to
the prioritization of domestic industries in major government
contracts, Canada?s strategy is reshaping how trade between the
two countries operates. These developments have raised concerns
among U.S. officials, who are now calling for changes to these
policies.
NASA gives update on Artemis II
crew's status - Apr 1
CBC News brings you special coverage of the Artemis II launch
from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. NASA officials are
holding a news conference to discuss the mission after the
four-member crew blasted off into space.
Statement
by Prime Minister Carney on the launch of the Artemis II
mission
April 1, 2026
Ottawa, Ontario
?Today, Canadian Space Agency astronaut Colonel Jeremy Hansen
makes history as the first Canadian to venture to the Moon.
With
Artemis II, Canada becomes only the second nation on Earth to
send an astronaut on a lunar mission. This remarkable
achievement is a testament to Colonel Hansen?s exceptional
skill, and to the decades of discipline, dedication, and
perseverance that brought him to this moment. It is also a
testament to Canada and our world-class science, our
cutting-edge technology, and our remarkable astronauts.
This moment
reminds us of what Canada has always been: a nation of
explorers, builders, and innovators. Colonel Hansen carries
forward the legacy of those who came before him ? Marc Garneau,
Roberta Bondar, Chris Hadfield ? and the dreams of every young
Canadian watching today?s launch.
On behalf of
the Government of Canada, I wish Colonel Hansen and NASA
astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch a
safe and successful mission.?
