An 87-year-old woman whose eviction sparked massive protests in Spain over the country's housing crisis has accepted a deal to return home, her lawyer said Tuesday. The eviction of María del Carmen Abascal led to intense protests and prompted the government to announce new housing measures. Abascal will return home after being discharged from the hospital, following an agreement with the building's owner. The government has introduced measures to protect vulnerable Spaniards from evictions, regulate room rentals, and impose taxes on seasonal rentals. Parliament has 30 days to ratify these measures, and protests continue across the country.

Small business owners in the United States and Canada say a trade war between their countries is hurting sales while they are also dealing with rising expenses from higher fuel costs. Canada imposed reciprocal tariffs on about $20 billion worth of U.S. goods last week after President Donald Trump placed import taxes on Canadian goods worth the same amount. Trump said the U.S. also would ban imports of wine, whiskey, selected motorcycles and the cheese-derived protein additive whey from Canada. The conflict between the economically entwined neighbors affects only about 5% of total exports and imports, but it is having a big impact on small businesses that depend on cross-border sales.
