5 Things to Know Today — September 27, 2026

  Sunday, September 27, 2026  |  MoneySavings.ca A milestone in the Canada-US trade war hits at midnight, the Bank of Canada's rate decision is now a near-coin-flip, and Canada's economic pivot to China is showing real results. Here are the five things that matter for your wallet today. 01 OF 05 The US Alcohol Import Ban Takes Effect Tonight at Midnight At 12:01 a.m. Eastern tonight, the United States stops accepting new shipments of packaged Canadian beer, wine, cider, and spirits. The ban was signed by President Trump on September 8 under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, escalating the trade dispute beyond the 50% tariffs that took effect on August 22. Everything already on US store shelves stays there and can still be sold — the ban stops restocking, not consumption. Goods imported before tonight but not yet cleared through customs remain subject to the 50% duty rather than the ban. Bulk spirits shipped in containers over four litres are exempt; consumer-sized bo...

Your daily horoscope: August 11, 2023

 


HOROSCOPE IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

You’ve come a very long way over the past year or so and now you must raise your sights and aim to go even further. Enjoy your successes, of which there will be plenty, but don’t forget to learn from your occasional failures too.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

The sun’s position in the most dynamic area of your chart will encourage you to press ahead with your plans even if friends, loved ones and work colleagues think you are mad. Maybe you are mad, a bit, but it’s more fun that being boringly sane.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Make it a priority today to sit down with someone you love and work out what has been going wrong with your relationship. With goodwill on both sides there is no reason why you cannot rekindle the spark and fan it into a raging inferno.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

Yes, there are a lot of bad things going on in the world but that does not mean you can just give up and do nothing to help. Make it your personal mission to cheer up those who don’t share your faith in the goodness of the human race.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

The planets warn that your mind could be playing tricks on you at the moment, so it might be best to take nothing at face value over the next 24 hours. That applies especially to money matters. Are you so rich you can just give it away?

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

Seize the initiative today and start something new and exciting. The sun remains in your sign until the 23rd, so there is still plenty of time to make your mark on the world. What you begin now could change the future in major ways.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Mercury in your sign means your mind is buzzing with new ideas but you need to make sure they are the sort of ideas that can be turned into physical achievements. A dream could become a nightmare if you allow yourself to believe in fairy stories.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

The more you interact with people who are exciting and original the more exciting and original your own thinking will be. Even if some of their ideas seem a bit far out don’t try to limit them in any way. Creativity must always be encouraged.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

Are your career plans viable? Can you see yourself making the most of your creative talents and moving up on the work front? At this time of year more than most you need to be realistic about what you can hope to accomplish – which is a lot!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

Last minute changes over which you have no control may be annoying but you should be flexible enough to take it all in your stride. Instead of getting angry about other people’s unreliability try smiling and treating it all as a bit of a joke.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

Usually you are brutally honest with yourself about what can and cannot be done but just lately a degree of wishful thinking has crept into your mind. Is that a bad thing? No it isn’t. If you desire something enough you WILL find a way to get it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

Advice you give to family and friends over the next 24 hours must come from your own experience rather than what you have learned second hand. If you don’t actually know the answers they are looking for at least be honest and admit it.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

You have been getting through your work at double quick speed lately and that’s a good thing, but don’t forget to reward yourself with some down time too. You will achieve more in the long-term if you give your batteries a chance to recharge.
