Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has reiterated his call for the Trudeau government to resume Parliament as soon as possible, amid a historic trade war with the United States.

Poilievre stated that, like every Canadian, the Conservative Party is relieved to hear that the US will suspend tariffs for a month. However, he emphasized that this is not the time to relax. Canada must act immediately to strengthen its economy and ensure these tariffs are never imposed.

The Conservative leader added that Parliament must resume to address these urgent issues. It is worth noting that Parliament has been suspended until March 24, while the Liberal Party selects its next leader. The new leader, set to be announced on March 9, will also assume the role of prime minister, taking over from Justin Trudeau.

Officials warn against misinformation as B.C. rolls out influenza, COVID-19 vaccines

British Columbia's health minister says she is concerned about a "growing amount of misinformation and disinformation" related to vaccines as the province rolls out its campaign for the respiratory illness season.

The Canada Industrial Relations Board has ruled against the union at Canada Post in its challenge to Ottawa's move last year to force the postal employees back to work.

The Canadian Union of Postal Workers challenged the move, saying it violated its right to strike under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
