Canada was hit with 35 per cent tariffs on Friday after U.S. President Donald Trump followed through on his threat to increase the duties if Ottawa didn't make a trade deal.

The White House has said the tariffs would not affect goods compliant with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade, commonly known as CUSMA.

Prime Minister Mark Carney had tempered expectations of an agreement by Friday, saying Ottawa will only agree to a deal "if there's one on the table that is in the best interests of Canadians."

The Assiniboia RCMP are asking for the public's assistance in finding a 40-year-old missing man from Mossbank.

Philippe Beaulieu, who also goes by "Phil", was last seen on July 16 at 8 a.m. in Mossbank. RCMP have been checking places Beaulieu is known to visit and following up on information received.

He is described as six-foot-two, 210 pounds, grey eyes, short blond hair, a diamond tattoo on his cheek and a nose piercing. It is unknown what he was wearing at the time he went missing.

Coun. Dawn Luhning raised concerns about a couple of walking trail gaps during Monday night’s city council meeting. 

In particular, she asked city administration about pedestrians walking from the Yara Centre to Ninth Avenue Northwest. 

She said she’s seen people walking on the shoulder of the road, including an instructor who walks the route daily, and she had safety concerns. 

If you or your child have burning questions about fire safety, the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) and their special guests have the answers during a presentation coming to Moose Jaw in August.  

The presentation, led by public education program coordinator Anara Arcand, will focus on key safety lessons—all with a kid friendly twist. 

Carnie's Comments

It's Throwback Thursday - just a minute to remember the good ol' days.

I'm thinking about Little League baseball today as we follow the Canadian Championships and Team Saskatchewan.

I love Little League. I played when I was a boy and coached several teams as a young adult.

One of my favourite players I coached was a little 9-year-old guy we'll call Bobby.
