  • Summary

  • Donald Trump’s abrupt announcement about taking over Gaza has sent shockwaves across the Middle East and around the world. The White House says his reasons are humanitarian. Palestinians, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt have rejected the idea, and are worried about what it would mean for the West Bank. The far right in Israel is celebrating, but many people on the street think it is unlikely to ever happen.


    And: Trump’s tariff threats are driving the issues for political races here in Canada – pushing Liberal leadership candidates to focus on how to handle them. And the leader of the opposition, Pierre Poilievre, is also pivoting his message – from carbon tax to crime.


    Also: As Canada looks to protect its economy from potential tariffs… one of the industries that could be hardest hit is auto manufacturing. Alexandre Silberman looks at whether there is any way to decouple a deeply integrated industry.


    Plus: Drug trafficking in Canada, Elon Musk’s slashing agenda, Emilia Pérez controversy, and more.
