Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Louise Skivone.
Canadians appear to overwhelmingly support Prime Minister Mark Carney's response to the escalation
“in the trade war between Canada and the United States.”
Dan Carpenterek tells us there's broad agreement that a line has been crossed. To provincial premiers from across the country say Trump has gone too far and all with the exception of Alberta say it's time to fight back. The agree will be tough on Canadians.
Jobs will be lost and businesses close because of President Trump's 50 percent tariffs.
Many business leaders such as the Canadian steel producers association agree that no deal is better than a bad deal. Fans at Major League soccer matches in Montreal and Vancouver, booed the US national anthem Saturday. Many people promise to shut an American alcohol.
Ottawa's retaliation begins on September the 8th targeting US sectors including steel, dairy, appliances, agricultural equipment, pulp and paper, and electronics.

But multiple court orders are blocking the USPS from carrying out that plan for now. And PR's Hansi Lowong has more.
“A key change under the finalized rule from the US Postal Service would require states to turn”
over their absentee voter list to the mailing agency in order to have their mail-in-balance delivered. For now, though, a federal judge in Boston has blocked USPS, which is financial support of NPR. The judge round that President Trump's executive order for the Postal Service and other
federal agencies, over steps his authority under the Constitution. Trump himself has voted by mail-in Florida. And for months, his executive order to limit mail-in voting has been caught up in legal fights. It doesn't Republican-like states are appealing the latest nationwide ruling by the judge
in Boston. And comes as the way continues for the Supreme Court to weigh in on an earlier ruling that blocks USPS from implementing Trump's order in the 23-mainly Democratic-led states plus Washington, D.C. that's sued. Hansi Lowong and PR news.
The nation's capital is hosting its first ever indie car race around the national mall to
celebrate 250 years of America. And PR's Ava Burger is at the track and says, "Everywhere you look, it's red, white, and blue." At 8 AM, fans were already sprinting into the national mall. For the museums, for the cars, decked out in American flagpants in a freedom 250 shirt
and hat, Cameron Graves already had a front row seat by 815 AM. He described the feeling at the freedom 250 Grand Prix. "Oh, man, patriotic and electric." Indicard drivers started their practice laps at 915 AM. Flyovers and a military dress are scheduled throughout the morning, and President Donald Trump
is expected to wave the green flag around 1-15 PM to start the 250 mile race. Ava Burger and PR news, Washington. This is NPR News. Recent college graduates are struggling to land entry-level jobs, Lee Gaines reports some blame AI.
Irene Chang graduated from Georgia Tech this past spring with an engineering degree.
“"I think I've applied to around 450 applications now."”
Still, no offers. She thinks AI might be part of the reason. Economists don't all agree. Stanford University researchers found employment declined for younger workers and jobs that AI can more easily automate, like software development.
But Harvard University economists David Deming isn't convinced. He points to the rise in remote work since the pandemic. He says employers are less likely to hire entry-level workers for remote positions. Still, he thinks AI will impact jobs at some point. "But it'll take some time and it's going to be very bumpy and messy, and you know,
a book a lot." For NPR News, I'm Lee Gaines. A federal judge says the Trump administration acted illegally when it stopped processing immigrant visas for citizens of 75 countries, including Afghanistan, Brazil, and Yemen. U.S. District Judge Janette Vargas said this is discrimination based on nationality and
violation of federal immigration law. Under federal law, visas are not to be issued to people who cannot support themselves while in the U.S., but Vargas ruled those determinations must not be based on nationality.
