AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Canada-U.S. trade talks: Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew says Canada shouldn’t make concessions to an “erratic” Trump, as federal Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc says Ottawa is “very close” to finalizing a deal and tariffs on about $20B in imports have been postponed. Immigration & labour: Employment and Social Development Canada updated Temporary Foreign Worker Program rules, shifting low-wage caps to per-work-location counts so eligible employers with multiple small sites can hire one or two workers per site. International diplomacy: Canada joined a statement by leaders of seven countries condemning Israel’s E1 West Bank settlement tender process, warning it undermines a two-state solution and urging Israel to retract. Indigenous consultation: Kahnawake opposes a Canada-Quebec deal tied to impact assessment/consultation processes, arguing communities weren’t engaged early enough. Mining & research: Laurentian University will lead a national AI-ready effort to digitize Canada’s geological record, supported by up to $1M over two years from Creative Destruction Lab. Health-care capacity (Manitoba): Manitoba’s recruitment push for thousands of new health-care workers drew skepticism from unions, with critics pointing to persistent ER wait times.
