Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe is facing calls from within his province and from a fellow premier to hit back on punishing U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford told reporters Tuesday Moe should consider no longer selling potash, uranium and oil to the United States and instead find different markets. 

"I consider Scott Moe a good friend of mine ... and I've talked to him. We need to make sure America feels the pain," Ford said.

Hours after the Arbitration Board issued their report on the new collective bargaining agreement between the provincial government and the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation, the President of the STF held a media availability to address what she called an historic decision by the board.  

While warm weather has been the climate for the past week, we're seeing a bit of a dip into more winter-like conditions over the next few days.

That began with some overnight snow which blanketed the southeast, while not dropping any significant amounts over the areas.

Environment Canada Meteorologist Danielle Desjardins says from what they saw that was triggered by a chill that rushed through the area.

The Estevan Kinettes delivered on a fundraiser last night that saw a number of community members get pied in the face.

The Kinettes had been accepting votes to determine who would be pied, with votes cast in exchange for donated money.

Potential pie recipients included Mayor Tony Sernick, ECS principal James Jones, lifetime Kinsman Dave Elliott, and two Kinette ladies, Raelene Fieber and Susan Colbow.

Jill Verwey of Portage la Prairie has ascended to a prominent national role in Canadian agriculture, being named as the first vice-president of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture (CFA) during its recent annual general meeting in Ottawa. Verwey, a seasoned farmer specializing in cash crops, beef, and dairy, also serves as the president of Keystone Agricultural Producers (KAP), Manitoba's leading farm policy organization.

Now that the 30-day reprieve from the 25 per cent tariffs has come to an end, we are taking a look at the full list of the items imported from the United States - totaling $30 billion - that will be subject to retaliatory tariffs from the Government of Canada. While the full impact of the ongoing trade dispute has yet to be determined, consumers, retailers and producers on both sides of the border could be feeling it in their wallets when imposed. 

Here is a quick look at some of the items included. 

The Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation issued a release Tuesday morning calling a decision by the Arbitration Board ‘historic’. The decision is calling for class complexity to be included as a new article in the provincial collective bargaining agreement.  

U.S. President Donald Trump has imposed tariffs on U.S. imports today coming from Canada and Mexico.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is scheduled to talk more about Canada's response, which will include tariffs on $155 billion worth of American goods, at 10:30 a.m. in Ottawa.
