RECOVERING POLITICIANS PANEL:  CANADA-USA TARIFFS DELAYED FOR 30 DAYS

Libby Znaimer is joined by George Smitherman, former Liberal MPP for Toronto Centre, Health Minister and Deputy Premier, Lisa Raitt, a former Deputy Leader of the Conservative Party of Canada and Gurratan Singh, Vice President at Crestview Strategy and a former NDP MPP for Brampton East.

The Trump administration's 25 percent tariffs on Canadian goods (oil only facing a 10 percent tariff) were supposed to come into effect today as was Ottawa's response of 25 percent of tariffs on $155 billion worth of American goods... until PM Trudeau and President Trump engaged in a little phone diplomacy yesterday. Our panel reacts to the latest and to what PM Justin Trudeau has committed to at the Canada-US border.

IT'S WORLD CANCER DAY

Libby Znaimer is joined by Bev Moir, a Lung Cancer Patient Advocate.

In 2019, Bev was diagnosed with stage 4 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) despite being a non-smoker and leading an active lifestyle. She joins us on World Cancer Day to share her story and to advocate for lung cancer awareness.
