Your daily horoscope: May 9, 2025

  IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY A change of direction is a must this year as you have reached the end of your current journey and need a new challenge. Make a break with the past and make it one that cannot be reversed. Move forward fast and don’t look back. ARIES (March 21 - April 20): Someone you meet on your travels will catch your eye and maybe your heart as well. If it’s true that opposites attract you could find yourself getting close to someone whose charms are very different to your own – and remarkably the relationship will work.

Canada Vows Robust Retaliation Against ‘Unjustified’ U.S. Metal Tariffs

 

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has warned that if the United States moves forward with its proposed steel and aluminum tariffs—deemed “entirely unjustified”—Ottawa will respond decisively. Speaking at the sidelines of the Paris Artificial Intelligence summit, Trudeau stressed that Canadians will “stand up strongly and firmly if we need to,” underscoring his government's commitment to defending the long‐standing trade relationship between the two countries. 

Trudeau argued that imposing such tariffs would not only damage Canadian industries but also raise costs for American consumers by disrupting vital supply chains, from automotive manufacturing to energy imports. He emphasized that any tariff imposed by Washington would trigger immediate reciprocal measures from Canada to protect its economic interests and ensure that the free trade agreement remains intact. 

The Prime Minister’s remarks come amid growing concerns that these U.S. trade measures could escalate tensions and lead to a broader economic conflict—one that would hurt businesses and households on both sides of the border. Trudeau’s firm stance signals that Canada is prepared to use all available tools, including retaliatory tariffs and other countermeasures, to safeguard its economy against what he calls an “unacceptable” attack on free trade.

Trudeau’s message is clear: while Canada values its historical partnership with the United States, it will not hesitate to defend its industries and consumers from policies that threaten mutual prosperity.
