Ten percent tariffs take effect, B.C.'s election battleground, the effect of Canada-U.S. tensions on a small Minnesota community, and more

About this episode

U.S. President Donald Trump's most sweeping tariffs to date are now in effect. Ten percent across the board tariffs kicked in at midnight, targeting almost all U.S. imports except for those from Canada or Mexico. It's a measure that could trigger retaliation from all corners of the world.


Also: British Columbia is proving to be a volatile battleground for the parties in this federal election. It all could amount to many seats changing colours on election night, including two held by party leaders.


And: Northwest Angle is a small community in Minnesota - part of the U.S., but surrounded by Canada on three sides. We'll take you there to hear what its residents have to say about the new tension between the two countries.


Plus: Worldwide protests against U.S. tariffs, how U.S. aid cuts could affect the spread of HIV in Africa, one B.C. city buys a medical clinic, and more.
