Carney 'disappointed' by 35 per cent tariffs, vows to protect jobs
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney expressed his disappointment on Friday about U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to increase so-called 'fentanyl tariffs' to 35 per cent and said his government is committed to supporting the most affected sectors. Article content In a 'fact sheet' from the White House, the Trump administration defended its latest action by blaming Canada for reportedly failing to 'cooperate in curbing the ongoing flood of fentanyl' and for having retaliated against the U.S. since their original round of tariffs. Article content Article content Article content However, goods that qualify for 'preferential tariff treatment' under the Canada-U.S.-Mexico free trade agreement (CUSMA) continue to remain exempt from tariffs, it said. Article content Article content 'While the Canadian government is disappointed by this action, we remain committed to CUSMA, which is the world's second-largest free trade agreement by trading volume,' wrote Carney in a statement on X published shortly after midnight on Friday. Article content The prime minister added that the application of CUSMA means that the average tariff rate on Canadian goods going to the U.S. remains one of the lowest for all its trading partners. Article content However, he said other sectors of Canada's economy will remain heavily impacted by tariffs, he said. Steel and aluminum were already subject to 50 per cent tariffs, with copper now impacted by that same rate, but lumber and automobiles are also of great concern. Article content 'For such sectors, the Canadian government will act to protect Canadian jobs, invest in our industrial competitiveness, buy Canadian, and diversity our export markets,' he said. Article content Carney said despite the U.S. justifying its action on the flow of fentanyl, Canada accounts for only one per cent of U.S. fentanyl imports and 'has been working intensively to further reduce these volumes' with 'historic' investments for security at the border. Article content Carney did not announce a new deadline to conclude a new economic and security agreement with the U.S. and rather insisted on making Canada more self-reliant. Article content 'While we will continue to negotiate with the United States on our trading relationship, the Canadian government is laser focused on what we can control: building Canada strong,' he said, pointing to internal trade between provinces and the building of major projects. Article content 'Together, these initiatives have the potential to catalyse over half a trillion dollars of new investments in Canada,' he added. Article content Carney concluded his statement by saying Canadians will become their own best customers and create 'more well-paying careers at home' while the government continues to 'strengthen and diversify' its trading partnerships around the world.

Cook This: 3 recipes for living your 'guest life' from What Can I Bring?, including peach and ginger upside-down cake
Our cookbook of the week is What Can I Bring? by food writer, recipe developer and cookbook author Casey Elsass. Article content To say Casey Elsass is no stranger to writing cookbooks would be an understatement. What Can I Bring? (Union Square & Co., 2025) is technically his 20th title — his first solo effort after co-authoring and ghost-writing 19 others. Not one to rest on his laurels, Elsass has four more cookbooks coming out this fall and next spring, with other projects on the horizon. As much as he enjoys writing for and with others, though, the experience of going it alone was freeing. Article content Article content 'It was really nice to be able to write as myself for the first time. That felt incredible. It was great to work on my own timeline. It was great to bring all of those experiences from the 19 times at bat when my name was on the cover and the pressure was really on,' says Elsass, laughing. Article content Article content Elsass filled What Can I Bring? with 75 recipes for living 'your guest life': dips, drinks, salads, brunch, breads, not one but two dessert chapters (one on 'MVPs' cookies, bars, pie and ice cream, and the other on cakes), and homemade edible gifts. Article content He came up with the idea of focusing on winning dishes to take to parties during the pandemic. 'I really took advantage of getting together and being in community, and I didn't realize that until it wasn't an option anymore, and I missed it so much.' Elsass kept the project on the back burner, secretly filling a Google Doc with ideas. Writing his own cookbook wasn't always a dream, but it became one. After quietly working on it in small ways, he told his boyfriend, artist Pacifico Silano, about the concept one night at dinner. Elsass called his agent in the morning, and they sold the proposal within a month. Article content Article content In 2019, after selling his hot sauce, maple syrup and honey company, Bushwick Kitchen, Elsass started writing cookbooks in earnest. (His very first foray was a 2016 Short Stack edition on maple syrup.) It took time to figure out the pacing of projects to build a sustainable career, but Elsass has carved out a space in the food world that brings him joy. Article content 'I feel very lucky that I wake up excited for my work every day,' says Elsass. 'Almost everybody I work with has always dreamed of having a cookbook, and then I get to be with them in a very intimate way as that dream becomes a reality for them, and that is such a special gift.' Article content Article content Working with so many people, understanding their palates and points of view, has shaped Elsass's cooking. 'They've influenced me in a thousand tiny little ways. Their fingerprints are all over this book in little decisions here and there.' Article content Take chef Jeremy Salamon's Hungarian and Jewish cookbook Second Generation (HarperCollins Publishers, 2024), which Elsass worked on. Since desserts are so central to Hungarian cuisine, Salamon felt they warranted two chapters. When Elsass was putting together the proposal for What Can I Bring?, he knew he would do the same because 'Just bring dessert' is such a common host refrain.

Imperial announces second quarter 2025 financial and operating results
Article content Quarterly net income of $949 million Cash flows from operating activities of $1,465 million and cash flows from operating activities excluding working capital 1 of $1,413 million Upstream production of 427,000 gross oil-equivalent barrels per day, highest second quarter in over 30 years Kearl achieved highest-ever second quarter production of 275,000 total gross oil-equivalent barrels per day (195,000 barrels Imperial's share) Completed construction and commissioning on Canada's largest renewable diesel facility located at the Strathcona refinery Renewed annual normal course issuer bid to repurchase up to five percent of outstanding common shares; plan to accelerate purchases to complete the program prior to year end Article content CALGARY, Alberta — Imperial (TSE: IMO) (NYSE American: IMO): Article content Article content Imperial reported estimated net income in the second quarter of $949 million, compared to net income of $1,288 million in the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by lower upstream realizations and downstream margin capture. Quarterly cash flows from operating activities were $1,465 million, compared to $1,527 million generated in the first quarter of 2025. Excluding the impact of working capital 1, cash flows from operating activities were $1,413 million, compared to $1,760 million in the first quarter of 2025. Article content 'We safely completed our heaviest planned turnaround quarter in both our Upstream and Downstream businesses, positioning the company for a strong second half of the year,' said John Whelan, chairman, president and chief executive officer. 'A significant accomplishment was the work completed at Kearl which delivers on our plans to double turnaround intervals to an industry-leading four years.' Article content Upstream production averaged 427,000 gross oil-equivalent barrels per day, the highest second quarter production in over 30 years. Kearl recorded its highest-ever second quarter total gross production averaging 275,000 barrels per day (195,000 barrels Imperial's share), including the completion of its planned turnaround. Cold Lake averaged gross production of 145,000 barrels per day in the second quarter and completed the planned turnaround work at the Mahkeses plant. The company's share of Syncrude quarterly production averaged 77,000 gross barrels per day. Article content Downstream throughput in the quarter averaged 376,000 barrels per day, resulting in an overall refinery capacity utilization of 87 percent, including the successful execution of significant planned turnaround work at Nanticoke and Strathcona. Petroleum product sales averaged 480,000 barrels per day. Article content 'I am pleased to announce the start-up of Canada's largest renewable diesel facility which will deliver high quality lower emission fuels to the Canadian transportation sector,' said Whelan. 'This project is expected to deliver attractive returns and complements our integrated business model and industry-leading refinery base.' Article content During the quarter, Imperial returned $367 million to shareholders through dividend payments and has declared a third quarter dividend of 72 cents per share. In June, Imperial renewed its annual normal course issuer bid program (NCIB) allowing the repurchase of up to five percent of its outstanding shares over a 12-month period. Article content 'Imperial remains committed to its long-established history of returning surplus cash to shareholders, and I am pleased to announce our plan to accelerate our NCIB share repurchases with a target of completing the program prior to year end,' said Whelan. Second quarter highlights Article content Net income of $949 million or $1.86 per share on a diluted basis, compared to $1,133 million or $2.11 per share in the second quarter of 2024. Cash flows from operating activities of $1,465 million, compared to cash flows from operating activities of $1,629 million in the second quarter of 2024. Cash flows from operating activities excluding working capital 1 of $1,413 million, compared to $1,508 million in the second quarter of 2024. Capital and exploration expenditures totaled $473 million, up from $462 million in the second quarter of 2024. The company returned $367 million to shareholders in the second quarter of 2025 through dividends paid and declared a quarterly dividend of 72 cents per share. Renewed share repurchase program, enabling the purchase of up to five percent of common shares outstanding, a maximum of 25,452,248 shares, during the 12-month period commencing June 29, 2025. Consistent with the company's commitment to return surplus cash to shareholders, Imperial plans to accelerate its share purchases under the NCIB program and anticipates repurchasing all remaining allowable shares prior to year end. Purchase plans may be modified at any time without prior notice. Upstream production averaged 427,000 gross oil-equivalent barrels per day, the highest second quarter production in over 30 years, up from 404,000 gross oil-equivalent barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024 primarily driven by record Kearl production. Record second quarter total gross bitumen production at Kearl averaged 275,000 barrels per day (195,000 barrels Imperial's share), up from 255,000 barrels per day (181,000 barrels Imperial's share) in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to mine productivity and improved reliability. Gross bitumen production at Cold Lake averaged 145,000 barrels per day, compared to 147,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to production and steam cycle timing, and turnaround impacts partially offset by Grand Rapids solvent-assisted SAGD. Leming SAGD project remains on track with steam injection started at the end of the second quarter and continuing until late 2025. First oil anticipated in late 2025, with production ramping up over the next year to a peak of around 9,000 barrels per day. The company's share of gross production from Syncrude averaged 77,000 barrels per day, up from 66,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by the timing of the annual coker turnaround. Completed construction and commissioning on Canada's largest renewable diesel facility located at the Strathcona refinery with first production in July. Imperial has received project support through the Governments of Alberta, British Columbia and Strathcona County. Refinery throughput averaged 376,000 barrels per day, compared to 387,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024. Capacity utilization was 87 percent, compared to 89 percent in the second quarter of 2024. Lower refinery throughput and capacity utilization were primarily due to unplanned downtime partially offset by lower turnaround impacts. Petroleum product sales were 480,000 barrels per day, up from 470,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024, enabled by the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion. Chemical net income of $21 million in the quarter, compared to $65 million in the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by lower polyethylene margins. Announced single largest corporate gift to any post-secondary institution in Alberta, with the donation of the $37 million research lab facility to the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT). Article content During the second quarter of 2025, the price of crude oil decreased relative to first quarter of 2025, while the Canadian WTI/WCS spread narrowed due to low inventory levels. Industry refining margins improved in the second quarter of 2025, driven by strong seasonal demand. Article content During 2025, the United States announced a variety of trade-related actions, including the imposition of tariffs on imports from Canada and several other countries. In response, Canada announced its own retaliatory tariffs. Certain tariffs were paused for a period of time but have not been withdrawn, while others have been revised. The global trade environment continues to be volatile. The likelihood of the United States, Canada or their trading partners resuming tariffs, imposing new or revised reciprocal tariffs, export restrictions, or other forms of trade-related sanctions is highly uncertain. Additionally, significant uncertainty exists as to what effects these actions will ultimately have on Imperial, its suppliers and its customers. The company continually monitors the global trade environment and works to mitigate potential impacts.

Article content (a) Computed using the average number of shares outstanding during each period. The sum of the quarters presented may not add to the year total. Article content Attachment VI Article content Non-GAAP financial measures and other specified financial measures Article content Certain measures included in this document are not prescribed by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These measures constitute 'non-GAAP financial measures' under Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K, and 'specified financial measures' under National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure of the Canadian Securities Administrators. Article content Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure, and other information required by these regulations, have been provided. Non-GAAP financial measures and specified financial measures are not standardized financial measures under GAAP and do not have a standardized definition. As such, these measures may not be directly comparable to measures presented by other companies, and should not be considered a substitute for GAAP financial measures. Article content Cash flows from (used in) operating activities excluding working capital Article content Cash flows from (used in) operating activities excluding working capital is a non-GAAP financial measure that is the total cash flows from operating activities less the changes in operating assets and liabilities in the period. The most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the financial statements is 'Cash flows from (used in) operating activities' within the company's Consolidated statement of cash flows. Management believes it is useful for investors to consider these numbers in comparing the underlying performance of the company's business across periods when there are significant period-to-period differences in the amount of changes in working capital. Changes in working capital is equal to 'Changes in operating assets and liabilities' as disclosed in the company's Consolidated statement of cash flows and in Attachment II of this document. This measure assesses the cash flows at an operating level, and as such, does not include proceeds from asset sales as defined in Cash flows from operating activities and asset sales in the Frequently Used Terms section of the company's annual Form 10-K. Article content Free cash flow Article content Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is cash flows from operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment and equity company investments plus proceeds from asset sales. The most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the financial statements is 'Cash flows from (used in) operating activities' within the company's Consolidated statement of cash flows. This measure is used to evaluate cash available for financing activities (including but not limited to dividends and share purchases) after investment in the business. Article content Net income (loss) excluding identified items Article content Net income (loss) excluding identified items is a non-GAAP financial measure that is total net income (loss) excluding individually significant non-operational events with an absolute corporate total earnings impact of at least $100 million in a given quarter. The net income (loss) impact of an identified item for an individual segment may be less than $100 million when the item impacts several segments or several periods. The most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the financial statements is 'Net income (loss)' within the company's Consolidated statement of income. Management uses these figures to improve comparability of the underlying business across multiple periods by isolating and removing significant non-operational events from business results. The company believes this view provides investors increased transparency into business results and trends, and provides investors with a view of the business as seen through the eyes of management. Net income (loss) excluding identified items is not meant to be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) as prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All identified items are presented on an after-tax basis. Article content Reconciliation of net income (loss) excluding identified items Article content There were no identified items in the second quarter or year-to-date 2025 and 2024 periods. Article content Cash operating costs (cash costs) Article content Cash operating costs is a non-GAAP financial measure that consists of total expenses, less purchases of crude oil and products, federal excise taxes and fuel charge, financing, and costs that are non-cash in nature, including depreciation and depletion, and non-service pension and postretirement benefit. The components of cash operating costs include 'Production and manufacturing', 'Selling and general' and 'Exploration' from the company's Consolidated statement of income, and as disclosed in Attachment III of this document. The sum of these income statement lines serves as an indication of cash operating costs and does not reflect the total cash expenditures of the company. The most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the financial statements is 'Total expenses' within the company's Consolidated statement of income. This measure is useful for investors to understand the company's efforts to optimize cash through disciplined expense management.

Unit cash operating costs (unit cash costs) is calculated by dividing cash operating costs by total gross oil-equivalent production, and is calculated for the Upstream segment, as well as the major Upstream assets. Cash operating costs is a non-GAAP financial measure and is disclosed and reconciled above. This measure is useful for investors to understand the expense management efforts of the company's major assets as a component of the overall Upstream segment.
