He also accused Mark Carney and

Farmer leaders chose not to attend the meeting called by the Punjab government on Friday to discuss issues with farmers.

Haryana Police removed the cement barricades to facilitate the reopening. Earlier, on March 20, the Shambhu border between Ambala and Patiala was also reopened by Punjab Police.

Prime Minister Mark Carney is hosting Canada's premiers today in Ottawa as the provinces grapple with the effects of Chinese and U.S. tariffs. The meeting is taking place just days before Carney is expected to launch a federal election campaign that would send Canadians to the polls as soon as April 28. The meeting with the premiers will be held this afternoon at the Canadian War Museum.

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe said

Liberal MP Chandra Arya says his nomination to run for the party again in his Ottawa riding has been revoked. The 62-year-old has represented the city's Nepean seat since 2015. The decision to remove him comes almost two months after the party also told Arya it would not accept him as a candidate for the leadership. National campaign director Andrew Bevan informed Arya in a letter today, just days before an expected election call. Arya had already been nominated, but the letter says new information obtained by the party's "green light committee" led the campaign co-chair to recommend that his
