China charges a 76 per cent tariff on Canadian canola seed imports and a 100 per cent tariff on canola oil, meal and peas. Ford's open letter to the prime minister, relea

Bank of Canada cuts interest rates by 25 basis points

The Bank of Canada announced its interest rate decision on Wednesday, cutting its benchmark rate by 25 basis points, bringing it to 2.50 per cent.
