  • Summary

  • The tariffs have been paused, but changes to U.S. import rules are already wreaking havoc with small businesses in Canada. The U.S. will stop allowing goods below a certain amount to be sent duty-free. We talk to companies who say their livelihoods will be dramatically hurt.


    And: Sports fans are expected to wager a record amount on this Sunday's Super Bowl.

    Plus: Gaza fallout, India deportations, H5N1 in cattle and more.
