Dominic LeBlanc has no time for “51st state” jokes. He’s too busy trying to keep the U.S. from slapping tariffs on its neighbor to the north.

Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc sent a video describing Canada's border security efforts to the man U.S. President Donald Trump has chosen to oversee his tariff agenda — part of Canada's pitch to avoid devastating duties that could come as soon as Saturday.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says while she doesn't want to assume anything after her meeting with U.S. president-elect Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago residence over the weekend, Canada needs "to be prepared" that threatened tariffs are on the way.

With Canada continuing to face pressure from the United States to beef up border security, the RCMP says a Black Hawk helicopter started patrolling the Alberta-U.S. boundary on Tuesday. Helicopter patrols will travel along the Prairie border searching for illegal activity, including illegal migration, human smuggling and drug trafficking.

Canadian leaders expressed relief that sweeping tariffs were not applied to Canadian products on the first day of Donald Trump’s presidency and that he did not mention America’s major trading partner

Canada’s outgoing prime minister and the leader of the country’s oil rich province of Alberta are confident Canada can avoid the 25% tariffs President Donald Trump says he will impose on Canada and Mexico on Feb.

Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc says the Liberals will not implement a planned hike to the capital gains inclusion rate until Jan. 1, 2026, pushing back the original date.

Trump’s Treasury Secretary nominee, Howard Lutnick, gave the impression at his Senate confirmation hearing that Canada was on the right track with security measures and that punitive tariffs might not be necessary just yet.

Homan, an ex-border agent and media pundit known for his tough talk on immigration, was tapped by Trump in November to carry out the biggest deportation effort in U.S. history, potentially involving the removal of millions of undocumented immigrants.

U.S. President Donald Trump says he will decide Thursday night whether to include oil in his tariff plan as he confirmed his intention to impose devastating duties on Canadian imports on Saturday.

With a decision on oil imminent, the U.S. President repeated his three reasons for imposing tariffs: illegal migration, fentanyl smuggling across the border and imbalances on trade

Trump said he would likely decide by the end of the day Thursday whether to put a 25 per cent tariff on Canadian oil imports that would take effect on Saturday.
