1 in 4 B.C. drivers admit to dozing off while behind the wheel: ICBC
About half of British Columbians have driven while tired or drowsy in the past year, and a quarter have nodded off while behind the wheel, according to an Ipsos poll commissioned by ICBC. ICBC's Greg Harper says driver fatigue causes more crashes in the summer as people head out on long road trips and deal with hotter weather.

Long weekend getaways bring traffic jams and police crackdowns
The long weekend often brings long delays and congested highways, and this year is no different. Drivers heading out of the city Thursday encountered significant traffic, particularly near the Highway 407 and Highway 400 interchange approaching Barrie. 'The highways were terrible. We got on the 407 and right when we hit close to the 400 near Barrie, it was just non-stop brake lights,' said one frustrated driver. 'We even took Friday off to miss the traffic, and I think we hit more traffic today (Thursday) than we would have tomorrow.' The trip to cottage country is well underway, with hundreds of thousands of people expected to travel over the next few days. But the journey isn't without issues. 'Maybe tailgating so close behind you that you worry if you have to stop suddenly,' said another driver voicing concerns. Ontario Provincial Police is reminding drivers they will be out in full force all weekend, cracking down on dangerous driving behavior. 'We're focusing on speeding, distracted driving, seatbelt use, and impaired driving,' said Sgt. Joe Brisebois with the OPP. 'And this weekend, there's also a focus on the Move Over Law.' That law requires drivers to move over when approaching a stopped emergency vehicle on the highway. Police are also issuing warnings about unsafe or unsecured loads on vehicles. 'That's dangerous,' added Sgt. Brisebois. 'It could cause a collision, go through someone's windshield, people can get injured or, even worse, it could lead to a fatality.' Gas prices were sitting just below $1.40 per litre in the morning. Many drivers say they're aware of what's coming and some are preparing accordingly. 'Every long weekend they put radar out on the highway,' said another motorist. 'And you don't like that? Of course not. Anyway, I go 118 km/h or whatever, but yeah... on long weekends, you're guaranteed to have police out there.' And that's exactly what police want drivers to keep in mind. There's zero tolerance this long weekend on the roads and highways and drivers should be prepared for delays almost the entire way.

Here's a timeline of Trump's tariffs on Canada
It's down to the wire on U.S. President Donald Trump's threat to raise his tariff on Canadian goods entering the United States to 35 per cent, up from the 25 per cent rate that he imposed soon after taking office. Trump set Aug. 1 as the deadline for Canada to reach a trade deal or face the tariff increase. Here's a brief timeline of the key tariffs on Canada. Feb. 1 Trump signs an executive order (new window) levying tariffs on Canadian exports to the U.S. at 25 per cent on all products, except energy, critical minerals and potash, which are hit with a rate of 10 per cent. The order justifies the tariffs as a way to address the flow of illicit drugs across our northern border, citing fentanyl as a threat to national security. Trump later announces the tariffs will take effect March 4 (new window) . WATCH | What a trade war with the U.S. would mean for Canada: March 6 Just two days after Trump's tariffs on Canada come into force, Trump amends his executive order (new window) , giving an exemption for products that comply with the terms of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA). The exemption covers nearly 90 per cent (new window) of Canadian exports to the U.S., which means the vast bulk of products can cross the border tariff-free. Trump pausing tariffs on some Canadian goods until April 2 (new window) WATCH | What you need to know about Trump's tariffs on Canada: April 29 After threatening to impose a 25 per cent tariff on automobiles and auto parts from outside the U.S., Trump waters down (new window) the levy, so it only applies to parts that aren't CUSMA-compliant (new window) and the non-U.S. portion of assembled vehicles. Still, the tariffs have an impact on Canada's auto sector and bite into the profits of North American automakers. WATCH | Here's where things stand with Trump's auto tariffs: May 6 Prime Minister Mark Carney, just days after leading his Liberal Party to a minority election win, meets Trump at the White House. Carney presses Canada's case for the removal of tariffs, and while Trump speaks highly of his guest, the president gives no sign he's changing his mind on the issue. WATCH | How Carney reacts to Trump's 'never say never' comments: June 3 Separately from the tariffs on Canadian goods, Trump doubles his tariff on steel and aluminum imports from all countries, to 50 per cent. Canada is the top supplier of both products to the U.S. WATCH | How Canada's steel producers are reacting to Trump's latest tariff threat: July 10 Trump threatens in a letter posted on his Truth Social platform (new window) to boost the tariff on Canadian goods to 35 per cent, effective Aug. 1. If Canada works with me to stop the flow of Fentanyl, we will, perhaps, consider an adjustment to this letter, Trump writes. WATCH | Here's what a deal by Trump's deadline could cost Canada: July 11 Goods that comply with CUSMA will continue to be exempt from the tariff even if the rate rises on Aug. 1, according to a White House official. WATCH | Why most Canadian exports still get into the U.S. tariff-free: July 25 One day after Canada's top negotiators downplay the prospects of getting a deal by Trump's deadline, the U.S. president also throws cold water on Canada's chances. We haven't really had a lot of luck with Canada, he tells reporters at the White House. I think Canada could be one [country] where there's just a tariff, not really a negotiation. U.S. and Canada might not reach trade deal, Trump says (new window) WATCH | 'We haven't really had a lot of luck with Canada,' Trump says: July 30 Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada's negotiating team is back in Washington for trade talks but gives his clearest indication yet that Canada might not land a deal by Trump's Aug. 1 deadline. Then shortly after midnight, Trump posted on his Truth Social platform (new window) , Wow! Canada has just announced that it is backing statehood for Palestine. That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. WATCH | As Trump's deadline nears, Carney says deal may not happen in time: Mike Crawley (new window) · CBC News · Senior reporter Mike Crawley has covered Ontario politics for CBC News since 2009.
