New Canadian PM: Canada ‘will never, ever, in any way shape or form, be part of the United States’<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Canada’s new prime minister, Mark Carney, stated that his country would not be taken by its southern neighbor.<\/p>\n

“We will never, ever, in any way, shape or form, be part of the United States,” Carney said Friday at his inauguration in Ottawa.<\/p>\n

Carney takes over<\/a> for Justin Trudeau, who\u00a0stepped down in January<\/a> after almost a decade in power.<\/p>\n

This week saw major escalations between Canada and the United States<\/a> as provincial leaders in Canada sought to levy their own tariffs.<\/p>\n

Trump has offered to trade tariffs for annexation, saying, “The only thing that makes sense is for Canada to become our cherished Fifty First State. This would make all tariffs, and everything eles, totally disappear.”<\/p>\n

Trump’s statements and the trade tariffs have sparked a backlash against US goods in Canada and elsewhere in the world.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Voice of America to end contracts with AP, Reuters, AFP<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The US Agency for Global Media, wich oversees public broadcasters such as Voice of America and Radio Free Europe\/Radio Liberty, will cut its partnership with leading news agencies such as the Associated Press (AP), Reuters and Agence France-Presse (AFP).<\/p>\n

“We should not be paying outside news companies to tell us what the news is,” said Kari Lake, special advisor to the agency.<\/p>\n

“We should be producing news ourselves. And if that’s not possible, the American taxpayer should demand to know why.”<\/p>\n

According to Lake, the cuts will save the government $53\u00a0million (\u20ac48.7\u00a0million).<\/p>\n

The move comes as the Trump administration continues to spar with media. In January, the White House banned the Associated Press from its reporting pool after the agency refused to refer to the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of America.”<\/p>\n

AP has since filed suit.<\/p>\n

Trump’s trade war is ‘a wake-up call for Europe,’ says ECB chief<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Christine Lagarde, the president of the European Central Bank, has sounded the alarm on Trump’s trade war with Europe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“It’s a big wake-up call for Europe. Maybe this is a European moment, yet again,” she told the BBC.<\/p>\n

She also expressed concerns for global consumers should the situation escalate futher.<\/p>\n

“If we were to go to a real trade war, where trade would be dampened significantly, that would have severe consequences… for growth around the world and for prices around the world, but particularly in the United States.”<\/p>\n

The US had announced 25% tariffs on European steel and aluminum imports, which the EU countered with tariffs of their own starting on April 1st.<\/p>\n

Trump then threatened to counter those tariffs himself with a 200% tax on wine and other alcohol from Europe<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Rubio: ‘More visas will be revoked’ from college students<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Secretary of State Marco Rubio doubled down on his administration’s aggressive rhetoric towards students in the United States.<\/p>\n

“In the days to come, you should expect more visas will be revoked as we identify people that we should have never allowed in,” he told reporters.<\/p>\n

The statement comes after the sudden arrest and attempted deportation of Mahmoud Khalil<\/a>, a\u00a0student at Columbia University.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Khalil was a known pro-Palestinian activist who was taken from his home last Saturday and set to be deported. On Monday, his lawyers temporarily\u00a0blocked the deportation, challenging the legality of his arrest.<\/p>\n

But Khalil was not in the United States on a student visa. He\u00a0is a permanent resident and holds a Green Card.<\/p>\n

Earlier today, federal agents raided two more Columbia students just hours after Donald Trump demanded changes to the university’s curriculum. No arrests were made.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Trump Administration tells Columbia Univeristy to change policies or lose funding<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

President Donald Trump’s administration has threatened to revoke federal funding from Columbia University unless it gives up control of its international studies department and makes significant policy changes.<\/p>\n

In a letter sent from the Department of Education, General Services Administration and Department of Health and Human Services, federal officials said the university must immediately place its Middle Eastern, South Asian, and African Studies Department under “academic receivership for a minimum of five years.”<\/p>\n

Columbia must also ban masks on campus that are meant to conceal the wearer’s identity or intimidate others, adopt a new definition of antisemitism, and abolish its current process for administering discipline to students.<\/p>\n

“We expect your immediate compliance with these critical next steps,” officials wrote.<\/p>\n

Last week, the government said it was canceling $400 million\u00a0(\u20ac367 million) in federal grants.and contracts to the school.<\/p>\n

The university has a 30-day period in which it can try to address the government\u2019s concerns.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration is exerting growing pressure on the university, which was the epicenter of pro-Palestinian\u00a0protests<\/a> at dozens of US college campuses last spring.<\/p>\n

At the same time the Department of Education said it was investigating 45 universities, citing complaints that the schools engaged with a program that set eligibility based on race.<\/p>\n

“Today\u2019s announcement expands our efforts to ensure universities are not discriminating against their students based on race and race stereotypes,” US Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said in the statement.<\/p>\n

US asks Denmark and others how many eggs they can send<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The United States has requested that Denmark<\/a> and other European countries send it eggs, according to the Nordic country’s egg association.<\/p>\n

This request comes as egg prices in the US continue to rise.<\/p>\n

The Reuters news agency has seen the letter from the US Department of Agriculture in Europe seeking information on their ability and willingness to export eggs to the American market.<\/p>\n

“We’re still waiting to get more guidance from Washington on next steps, but do you have an estimate of the number of eggs that could be supplied to the United States (assuming they meet all the import requirements),” a follow-up letter to the Danish egg association in early March said.<\/p>\n

During the election Donald Trump promissed to bring costs down. Instead, but the price has increased by 59% on a year-on-year basis since he came to power.<\/p>\n

The Danish Egg Association said they would look into it but that there is no surplus of eggs in Europe.<\/p>\n

The request comes as the Trump said he wants to control of Greenland<\/a>, which is part of Denmark.<\/p>\n
