Publisher Rudyard Griffiths and editor-at-large Sean Speer discuss an extraordinary New York Times story about President Trump and representatives from his administration telling Canadian officials in private their intention to revisit longstanding border treaties and water agreements between their two countries. They also explore how this may shape Canada's response to ongoing bilateral issues with the United States. In addition, they discuss this weekend's Liberal Party leadership vote and the prospect of Mark Carney becoming prime minister without ever having served in Parliament.
