Police say they believe a Calgary woman who disappeared more than five years ago was a victim of a homicide.

Tammie Doreen Howard, who was 49 when she vanished, was last heard from on Dec. 24, 2016, and reported missing by her family four months later.

Staff Sgt. Martin Schiavetta says investigators initially believed it was a missing person case but have followed many leads and determined Howard was killed.

Police are hoping the public can provide information on a light-coloured Jeep Wrangler that is believed to be connected to Howard's death.

Schiavetta says some cases are solved within hours or days but others, like this one, can take a lot longer.

He says police will continue to work the case so Howard's family gets answers.

Pierre Poilievre Calls for Retaliatory Tariffs and Tax Cuts

Canada's main opposition leader, Pierre Poilievre, has called on the government to target U.S. goods that Canada can produce or purchase from other sources in response to tariffs. He suggested that the revenue from retaliatory tariffs should be used to reduce taxes. Poilievre outlined a seven-point plan to counter President Trump's tariffs. At the same time, Poilievre questioned whether the Liberals effectively handled the fentanyl crisis and whether Trump's tariff actions can be justified. He concluded that the answer to both questions is no.

Critics say the government's new budget misses the mark on education and health-care funding, leaving issues like emergency room wait times and overcrowded classrooms to go from bad to worse. Alberta Teachers' Association president Jason Schilling says the nearly 10-billion dollars set aside for the K-to-12 school system doesn't keep up with population growth and inflation. Schilling says he understands that oil revenues are expected to drop and potential tariffs from the United States are putting the province in limbo, but education should be a priority.
