Trudeau on 51st state, Congo atrocities, money laundering in Canada, and more

  • Summary

  • Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says U.S. President Donald Trump is serious about making Canada the 51st state. Trudeau was speaking to business leaders at the Canada-U.S. Economic Summit. Cabinet minister Steven MacKinnon says the country is united by one thing: pride in being Canadian. The problem – it’s hard to predict what Trump might do next.


    And: The United Nations Human Rights Council is investigating what’s going on in Congo. Rebels have seized the city of Goma and there are reports of spiralling violence, rape and sexual slavery.


    Also: Canada’s promise to take action on illegal fentanyl played a role in getting a month-long reprieve from the tariffs. But a complete crackdown would have to change how Canada deals with money laundering.


    Plus: Kanye West’s hate, Super Bowl security, pipelines and more.
