Carney says he’ll only take ‘best deal for Canada’ in U.S. trade talks

Prime Minister Mark Carney says negotiations with the United States on trade and security will aim to get the “best deal for Canada.” Carney spoke ahead of meeting with Canada’s premiers in Huntsville, Ont., where he is joining the talks on how to build a stronger Canadian economy and tear down internal trade barriers in the face of U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war and tariffs.“What we collectively, alternatively, can most control is building a stronger economy, moving from alliance to resilience and division to unity,” Carney told the media ahead of discussions with premiers.“That will require support for affected industries: lumber, steel, aluminum, automobiles, particularly.”One of the biggest challenges in the current trade war with the U.S., which Carney has been focused on thr...

The Public Beta for iOS 26 Might Drop Tomorrow

Apple has been beta testing iOS 26 since announcing the update at WWDC, so the tech world has had plenty of chances to see what changes the company is cooking up for the fall. The thing is, this beta is only supposedly to be for iOS developers—though that hasn't stopped the general public from installing the update. While I've strongly discouraged non-developers from running these betas, I have good news: The public beta is nearly here. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who has a track record for accurate Apple reporting, Apple is planning iOS 26's public beta "around the 23rd" of July. Gurman's reporting is followed up by a MacRumors source, a private account on X, who shared leaked build numbers for Apple's upcoming round of updates on Monday—including the fourth developer beta for i...

City doctors find reason why woman suffered from severe headaches for more 3 yrs

Living with medical conditions is often difficult and may often go unnoticed in many cases as people believe it is not so serious, as is the case of a 31-year-old woman, married with children. She had been battling severe headaches for over three years pain so intense and constant that she relied on daily painkillers just to function.  While she was repeatedly diagnosed with migraine in the past, there was no real relief. As she felt her life was shrinking around her, she opted to meet Mumbai-based health expert Dr Sheetal Goyal, who is a consultant neurologist at Wockhardt Hospitals in Mumbai Central. After all the necessary tests, Dr Goyal found that it was a regrowth of a hormone-secreting pituitary tumour. Initially referred as a routine case of migraine, Dr Goyal noticed key red fla...

Four-day workweek may help improve employee well-being: Study

A four-day workweek might help with an employee`s well-being, according to a study that trialled the intervention in organisations across the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.

For the study, published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour, nearly 2,900 employees across 141 organisations in the six high-income countries worked four days a week for six months without a pay reduction.
