Carney Launches "One Canadian Economy" Act
Taarek Refaat Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled sweeping legislation on Friday aimed at expediting the approval of infrastructure projects and removing long-standing internal trade barriers, as part of a broader effort to boost Canada's economic potential amid growing global uncertainty. The One Canada Economy Act, a cornerstone of the Carney government's economic growth agenda, aims to standardize regulatory processes and create a single domestic market across the nation, according to CBC Canada. "Canada has been a country that used to build big things," Carney said at a press conference. "But in recent decades, it's become much harder to build in this country." To address these concerns, the bill would reduce federal project approval times from five years to two by creating a single permitting office and applying a "one project, one review" standard to infrastructure proposals. Projects labeled "nation-building" by the federal cabinet, such as railways, ports, pipelines, and transit lines, would undergo streamlined evaluations that focus not on justification, but on implementation. Under the bill, these proposals must meet at least some of five criteria, including economic benefit, Indigenous participation, and contributions to climate goals, although officials emphasize that these are considerations, not strict thresholds. The new approach was prompted in part by concerns about regulatory paralysis that has slowed Canada's ability to bring natural resources to global markets. "When federal agencies considered a new project, their immediate question was: Why?" Carney said Friday. "With this bill, we'll instead ask ourselves: How?" The new legislation also addresses internal trade barriers, which economists estimate cost tens of billions of dollars in lost productivity and economic output annually. A key provision of the bill is the recognition of provincial standards for goods, services, and labor certifications as meeting the federal standard, although actual interprovincial movement would require the cooperation of provincial governments. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan

Willie Peters had faith in Mikey Lewis kick as Hull KR clinch Challenge Cup
Largely out-muscled by a Wire side orchestrated by the imperious Marc Sneyd, Rovers looked set for more Wembley agony as the underdogs entered the final three minutes with a four-point advantage. But after Tom Davies stretched to touch down following an error from Aaron Lindop, it was left to Lewis – handed kicking duties in the absence of the Cup-tied Arthur Mourgue, to nail the two-pointer that sparked raucous celebrations among the red and white hordes behind the post. WHAT A MOMENT! ❤️🏆#UpTheRobins 🔴⚪️ — Hull KR (@hullkrofficial) June 7, 2025 'That was probably the moment when I was the most calm,' insisted Peters, who celebrated wildly with his players – many of whom had been part of their agonising 2023 golden point defeat to Leigh – at the final hooter less than one and a half minutes after his side had nudged back ahead. 'It was a massive moment and I believed he was going to get it because of the belief he has in himself. He's not our number one kicker but I felt really comfortable and confident when he had the ball in his hands because that was his moment.' Peters did not hide from the fact that Rovers had been second best for much of an attritional contest in which Lewis' early penalty looked set to give them a slender half-time lead before Josh Thewlis took advantage of an outrageous ricochet to give his side the lead. Sneyd, who added a superb two points from the touchline and would end the day by becoming only the second player to win the Lance Todd Trophy for man of the match in the second half, continued to dominate after the break until Tyrone May's clever kick led to the late, late drama. 'It wasn't the best performance but it was gritty and that's all you need in a Cup final,' added Peters. 'You need to have grit and you need to enjoy discomfort, and they certainly did that. 'They were uncomfortable for long periods, Warrington just kept throwing so much at us and Marc Sneyd was exceptional, but we found a way and I'm so proud of this playing ground and staff. 'The way they won that match today shows the character and the type of players that they are. It's in our DNA, it's who we are. East Hull people are gritty, tough and resilient. We don't do anything easily, it was tough out there but we found a way.' Deflated Warrington head coach Sam Burgess said he could not have asked any more from his side, who controlled the majority of the match and were on the verge of securing their first Wembley triumph since 2019. Burgess, whose side were also beaten by Wigan in last year's final, said: 'You don't always get what you deserve and I don't think we deserved to lose today. 'We controlled the game very well and executed the plan. Unfortunately these things can happen, we were just on the wrong side of things today.' Burgess refused to pin any blame on Lindop, whose failure to properly ground May's late kick let in Davies for the decisive score. Burgess admitted some confusion over the awarding of the try, since replays showed the Warrington winger had appeared to ground the ball with his stomach, but the RFL later clarified that grounding with anything but the hand is only allowed on an offensive play. 'I think he's an amazing young man,' Burgess said of Lindop. 'He's an amazing player and he's got such a bright future, so that's what I think about Aaron. I absolutely love him.' Burgess's side have struggled for much of his second season and went into the game as heavy underdogs, languishing outside the Super League play-off places in eighth place and missing talismanic duo Danny Walker and Matty Ashton through injury. But Burgess said once the raw disappointment had eased, his players would take much from the occasion that would hopefully spark a play-off push. 'We'll move on – suffering and pain and loss and everything like that are really crucial to our development and growth as a group and we're certainly suffering at the minute,' he added. 'There's a lot of pain in there but we'll take a really positive thing out of it as a group. We have great belief and it'll give us the resolve and determination to attack the second half of the season.'
