Tariff increase, border bill, La Ronge evacuates, and more

U.S. President Donald Trump has signed another executive order – this one pushes tariffs on steel and aluminum to 50 per cent, starting tomorrow. Producers in Canada say the increase will be disastrous for the industry.

And: As it continues to try to meet the U.S. demand for more border strength – the federal government wants to give increased powers to Canada's security and intelligence services. It will give them greater ability to open and inspect mail and allow officials to cancel or suspend immigration documents.

Also: La Ronge, Saskatchewan and its surrounding communities are now under an evacuation order as a rapidly approaching fire burns nearby. It’s already more than 800 square kilometers. In Manitoba, the chief of Pimicikamak Cree Nation says he’s frustrated – because some people are refusing to leave as two separate fires threaten the community.

Plus: Involuntary mental health care beds unveiled in a correctional facility in B.C., aid convoy attacked in Sudan, more deaths near an aid distribution site in Gaza, and more.
