Japan's top trade negotiator holds two phone meetings with Lutnick

An environmental advocacy group, Clean Energy Canada, is pushing back against any move to scrap Canada’s federal electric vehicle mandate. They argue that instead of backtracking, the government should double down on making EVs more affordable—think rebates and better charging infrastructure—to speed up the transition away from gas-powered cars.

Editor’s Note: If Canada axes its EV mandate, it could slow the shift to cleaner transportation—just as other countries are ramping up incentives. This isn’t just about climate goals; it’s about keeping pace in a global market where affordable EVs and reliable charging are becoming the norm. The group’s warning highlights a tension between short-term political moves and long-term environmental (and economic) needs.

Day four at Wimbledon 2025 delivered a mix of triumphs and exits: British hopeful Sonay Kartal’s run ended with a loss to Pavlyuchenkova, while Carlos Alcaraz and Andrey Rublev set up a blockbuster clash. Cameron Norrie advanced to the quarter-finals, keeping home fans hopeful. Meanwhile, Khachanov and Majchrzak battled tightly in their opener—though Majchrzak’s resilience kept him alive after an early stumble.

Editor’s Note: Wimbledon’s always a rollercoaster—local fans lose a rising star in Kartal but still have Norrie flying the flag. The Alcaraz-Rublev matchup promises fireworks, and even the undercard matches (like Khachanov’s grind) show how deep the competition is. For tennis lovers, it’s another day of edge-of-the-seat drama.

After 12 days of intense conflict between Israel and Iran, both Israel and Hamas are inching closer to a cease-fire deal—but for very different reasons. Israel seems to be leveraging its recent military gains, while Hamas may be seeking a tactical pause. The shifting power dynamics are driving negotiations, but their motivations don’t exactly align.

Editor’s Note: Cease-fires in this region are rarely straightforward. Even if both sides agree to pause fighting, their underlying goals could set the stage for future tensions. For now, though, any deal would mean relief for civilians caught in the crossfire—even if it’s temporary.
