Global National with Dawna Friesen

Doug Ford not backing down; Alberta teachers forced back to work


Listen Later

U.S. President Donald Trump has cancelled all trade talks with Prime Minister Mark Carney because of Ontario Premier Doug Ford's anti-tariff ad that ran in the U.S. Dawna Friesen looks at how Ford is making no apologies, and who is supporting him, while Mackenzie Gray looks at whether trade negotiations can be salvaged, and where this leaves Carney. Back in Ottawa, David Akin reports on some of the measures being promised in the federal budget, including a tax credit for workers and funding for worker training programs. Over in Alberta, the provincial government is invoking the notwithstanding clause to force teachers to go back to work. Heather Yourex-West explains when students could return to classrooms, how labour groups are vowing to fight back, and what could happen to individual teachers who defy the back-to-work order. Jackson Proskow looks at how people in Jamaica are bracing for Hurricane Melissa, which could be the strongest storm on record to ever hit the island. Jeff Semple reports on Canadian-born activist Moninder Singh speaking publicly about the threats to his life, and why Singh believes the Indian government is involved. Plus, Eric Sorensen reports from Los Angeles, where the Toronto Blue Jays and their fans are on enemy turf for Game 3 of the World Series.
