U.S. President Donald Trump's bluster about making Canada the 51st state has sparked a surge in Canadian patriotism, just in time for the federal election. But what does it really mean to be Canadian? The current wave of national pride tends to play up nostalgic tropes about hockey and hosers. But Canada is changing, and a new sense of Canadian identity may be emerging today. The Sunday Magazine’s Pete Mitton explores the meaning, power and pitfalls of Canadian pride.

It was one of the most notorious rape trials in French history. Last year, Dominique Pelicot was convicted and jailed for drugging and raping his then-wife, Gisèle Pelicot, over the course of a decade – and recruiting dozens of other men to abuse her while she was unconscious. Gisèle Pelicot opted for a public trial, making her identity known, to raise awareness for other victims like her. The trial also put their three adult children in the spotlight. But one of them says her own experience has been overlooked. Not only was Caroline Darian forced to reckon with the shocking revelations, but also with the discovery that photographs of her were found on his computer – and with what she believes they suggest. Darian shares her journey with Piya Chattopadhyay in a Canadian broadcast exclusive interview.

Note: This conversation contains frank discussion of sexual violence.

Host Piya Chattopadhyay breaks down the first week of the federal election campaign with The Economist's Rob Russo, Le Devoir's Emilie Nicolas and The Hub's Sean Speer. Then, Caroline Darian, daughter of Gisèle and Dominique Pelicot – the victim and perpetrator, respectively, at the centre of last year's notorious rape trial in France – reflects on how her father's crimes have affected their family.

Energy has become a flashpoint in the U.S. trade war with Canada, and Canadians should expect to hear a lot more about oil and gas – including potential new pipelines – once the federal election gets underway. And it underscores the renewed relevance of fossil fuels around the world: Energy companies like BP have backed away from their pandemic-era pledges to decarbonize, Donald Trump is vowing to "drill baby drill," and countries from Canada to Kazakhstan are signing off on new fossil fuel projects. So what does it mean for a warming planet and the future of renewables? As The Sunday Magazine's Pete Mitton explores in his documentary Oil Check... it's complicated.

Guest host David Common speaks with political journalists Rob Benzie, Stephanie Levitz and David Sanger about the ongoing trade war with the U.S. and Mark Carney's first moves as prime minister, The Sunday Magazine's Pete Mitton explores what's behind renewed energy around oil and gas, historian Stephen Bown reflects on Hudson's Bay's legacy as it as it announces plans to liquidate if it can't secure financing, retail strategist David Ian Gray talks about how primed businesses are to meet the "buy Canadian" demand, and The Atlantic's Zoë Schlanger shares the latest science around plant intelligence.
