Ontario Premier Ford Defends Anti-Tariff Reagan Ad That Derailed Trump Trade Talks - Toronto

Ontario Premier Doug Ford speaks to the media during a press conference at Queen's Park in Toronto, Canada, on Monday, October 27, 2025. Ontario Premier Doug Ford is defending his TV advertisement that prompted U.S. President Donald Trump to scrap trade talks with Canada and threaten higher tariffs, calling it the “most successful ad in North American history.” In a late-night social-media tirade last week, Mr. Trump denounced the ad, falsely accused it of being a “fraud” and announced an immediate end to trade talks with Canada. Mr. Ford pulled the ad off the air, but only after it ran during the first game of the World Series. Mr. Trump also said he would impose an additional 10-per-cent tariff on Canadian goods. On Monday, he told reporters he would not be meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney again for “a long time.” Mr. Carney said on Monday that trade talks stopped after the ad appeared.

Female athletes make rare appearance in archery contest in Yemen's capital

STORY: Female athletes make rare appearance in archery contest in Yemen's capital DATELINE: March 1, 2023 LENGTH: 00:01:33 LOCATION: Sanaa CATEGORY: SPORTS SHOTLIST: 1. various of the contest STORYLINE: A local archery championship was held on Monday in Yemen's capital Sanaa. A total of 75 male and female athletes played in the game despite the country's conservative tradition that frowns upon females' participation in sports competitions. A female archer said she felt lucky to get into the games and hoped for more to come. While women's sports are rarely held in Yemen, sportswomen have made continuous efforts to participate in local and international tournaments. Such competitions have been unusual in the war-torn country. Yemen has been mired in a civil war since late 2014 when the Iran-backed Houthi militia seized control of several northern provinces and forced the Saudi-backed Yemeni government out of the capital Sanaa.

Rats are no strangers to rejection, but Remy, a rat who long

Rats are no strangers to rejection, but Remy, a rat who longs to be a great chef, has more than the usual obstacles to overcome. His remarkable sense of smell and genius for combining flavors puts him head and shoulders above most human chefs. However, in the rat world he?s resigned to a life of being the ?poison sniffer,? using his unique talent to pick out the ?safe? garbage for his family to eat. Remy hates the idea of stealing and eating garbage at all; he considers himself a maker, not a taker. When he?s not out scrounging around for the few gourmet scraps he can safely get his hands on, he is busy poring over his most prized possession, a battered cookbook by the late, great chef Auguste Gusteau. When circumstances literally drop him in the kitchen of Gusteau?s, his idol?s world-famous restaurant in Paris, France, Remy finds himself living his dream of cooking, albeit unconventionally, in a real kitchen. RATATOUILLE is directed by Academy Award®-winning Brad Bird (The Incredibles) and co-directed by Academy Award®-winning Jan Pinkava (Geri's Game).
