Liberal Leader Mark Carney said Thursday he would pass tougher laws to stop people from being harassed at their places of worship, part of a suite of crime and justice measures he unveiled at a campaign stop in southern Ontario.

Liberal Leader Mark Carney took his promise of making Canada an "energy superpower" to the heart of Canada's oil industry Wednesday, becoming the second party leader in three days to promise to speed up the review process to greenlight major national energy projects.

The Liberal and Conservative leaders both started the third week of the federal election campaign in British Columbia — a battleground province with 43 seats up for grabs when Canadians go to the polls.

The top three federal party leaders are in Western Canada Tuesday.

Prime Minister Mark Carney's move on Friday to end the consumer carbon price has done little to put the long-standing political battle to rest.

Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc says the $29.8 billion in tariffs announced today are in addition to 25 per cent tariffs Canada imposed on $30 billion in imports from the United States earlier this month.

Nearly half of respondents to the Leger poll — 45 per cent — said they were strongly in favour of such tariffs, while 25 per cent said they were somewhat in favour.

The poll comes as U.S. President Donald Trump threatens to impose economically devastating tariffs on Canada and has repeatedly pushed the idea that Canada should become a U.S. state.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Ottawa will work to convince U.S. President Donald Trump that his steel and aluminum tariffs will hurt both countries.

Trump has said he wouldn’t rule out using military force to take over Greenland, which is part of Denmark. Stéphane Dion says such threats are not normal and violate the UN Charter.
