President Trump is imposed 50 percent tariffs on many Canadian goods after talks over
a trade deal fell through. NPR's chandelier stuster reports on the breakdown of negotiations. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced the country will impose retaliatory tariffs on the U.S. after the 50 percent tariffs went into effect.
“U.S. trade representative Jamison Greer says trade talks between both countries collapse”
Friday night after Canada declined to finalize a deal and a terms already agreed to. But Carney blames the U.S. saying U.S. demands, quote, "revealed the limits of their commitment to a true economic partnership."

Nearly 33,000 residents in northwest Indiana are still without power, 11 days after a deadly storm move through the region. Baran Gianno reports the storm front caused widespread damage to trees and that a lawsuit
alleges the utility provider northern Indiana public service company failed to upkeep. A newly filed class action lawsuit is alleging Nipsco failed to manage vegetation as well as conduct adequate inspections of utility poles and power lines. In a statement, the utility says it strongly disagrees with the characterization of Nipsco's vegetation management practices.
Portig Indiana resident Cynthia Sanchez is still without power following the storms. She says nearby power lines were knocked down by trees and that she remembers Nipsco offering to cut back trees on her property a few years ago. And we did take them up on it so they did cut down one of our trees, but there are so many trees in the neighborhood right by the lines.
Nipsco estimates power to be restored in the portage area on Tuesday for NPR news. I'm Barbon Giano in Indianapolis. Triple A says the national average price for gasoline remains stable at 410 a gallon this week. This is NPR.
The trial of a Massachusetts mother charged with killing her three children in 2023 will resume next week, the defense for Lindsey Clancy has rested its case as Deborah Becker from Member Station WBUR reports. The defense witnesses said Clancy was experiencing postpartum psychosis and a voice ordered her to kill her children and then herself.
Her attorneys are seeking what's known as an insanity defense, arguing that Clancy was not in her right mind and could not control her behavior. But medical experts for the prosecution say Clancy did not have postpartum psychosis and deliberately planned to kill the children. The trial has drawn international attention because of the focus on Clancy's attempts
to get postpartum mental health care, closing statements are expected next week. For MPR News, I'm Deborah Becker in Boston. Well this is quite a fish story, a fisherman on board a charter boat fishing off of the Atlantic coast this week, caught what is believed to be the largest Atlantic blue marlin that's ever been caught off the east coast of the United States.
It took the fisherman Walter Chapman and the others on board the charter boat three hours to bring in the massive 11 foot 1,260 pound fish.
“That's what it weighed when they got back to shore in Falmouth, Massachusetts.”
A marine biologist says what's even more remarkable about the fish is where it was caught. The waters too cold in the north west most of the year to catch fish that far north in the Atlantic. I'm Dan Ronan NPR News support for NPR comes.
