One Superhero, Two Legends

TORONTO – Marvel enlisted two of Italy’s most famous football captains, Francesco Totti and Alessandro Del Piero, to help herald the release of Captain America: Brave New World in Italy. Starring as the World War II Superhero is Anthony Mackie. The Louisiana-born actor made his debut in the Eminem Biopic 8 Mile (2002), and eventually earned global recognition playing Falcon in Captain America: Winter Soldier (2014). For Italians [and the rest of the world] the crossover promotion makes perfect sense since football icons enjoy as much fame globally as celebrities do in Hollywood. 

Is it really just tariffs?

TORONTO – On February 1st, Canada braced for the imposition of 25% and 10% tariffs on consumer goods and gas and oil, respectively, by the US if conditions set by the occupant of the White House were not met. Said conditions are as follows: prevent the crossing south of the border of undocumented people and control the flow of fentanyl to the US. The occupant of the White House then gave Canada a reprieve after he gave Mexico one – a reprieve of one month.
