About this episode

The episode discusses President Trump's new tariffs on Canadian products and the ongoing Pear Lake wildfire evacuation.

President Donald Trump has announced a new 50 per cent tariff on a wide range of Canadian products destined for the U.S. The move is said to be retaliation for Canada’s reaction to previous tariffs. Trump has signed three proclamations covering hundreds of exports including alcohol, dairy, hockey sticks and cement. The White House has justified the 50 per cent tariff saying other countries have accepted U.S. tariffs but Canada fought back. Ontario Premier Doug Ford is already asking Prime Minister Mark Carney to retaliate. Breaking News : An evacuation order has been issued for those living or visiting a rural area near Clinton. The Pear Lake wildfire continues to burn out of control - evacuees are being told to drive north toward Clinton, using Pavilion-Clinton Road and Highway 97. Downing Provincial Park is also under an evacuation order. The Pear Lake fire started on Friday following a thunderstorm.
