  • Ceasefire extended, Canada resets trade team, space goals, and more
    2026/04/21

  • Inflation up, military recruitment up, Iran/U.S. talks up in the air, and more
    2026/04/20

    The war in the Middle East is pushing up the price of pretty much everything here in Canada. The inflation rate rose to 2.4 per cent in March — largely driven by the price of oil. One of the biggest jumps — the cost of food.


    And: Ottawa says the number of people who enrolled in the Canadian military surged in the last year. But the number of people who left the military also went up.


    Also: Uncertain — that’s the status of peace negotiations between the U.S. and Iran. The American delegation is supposed to be in Pakistan on Tuesday for the talks. Iran says it hasn’t decided yet to go.

  • Mark Carney's "Canada Strong" pitch, Studying ADHD in women, Keeping campus radio stations alive, and more
    2026/04/19

    Mark Carney is doubling down on his “Canada Strong” message ahead of a key trade review deadline. In an address posted on YouTube, the prime minister vows to diversify the economy, and protect Canada’s future -- no matter the political climate. And who he quotes might provide the biggest clues of all.


    Also: Nearly two million Canadians are believed to have ADHD. But the diagnosis is highly gendered.

    Boys and men are not only more likely to get a diagnosis, but it's often discovered much earlier.

    That's why researchers at the University of Calgary are looking for hundreds of women and girls to study how ADHD affects them throughout their lives.


    And: They're the voice of students across the country. But many of Canada's campus radio stations are at risk of going silent. The student unions who fund them say radio is outdated, lost in the noise of social media. However, there is a renewed push to see an on-campus radio resurgence.

    Sudan has faced three years of relentless civil war. The number of displaced people continues to grow along with famine and violence.

  • Fuel tax relief, Israel/Lebanon talks, GLP-1 for fatty liver disease, and more
    2026/04/14

    One day after gaining a clear majority government by sweeping three byelections in Ontario and Quebec, Prime Minister Mark Carney announces a temporary suspension of the federal excise tax on gas and diesel. The move is expected to cost government coffers about $2.4 billion, and last until Labour Day.


    And: The U.S. State Department says today’s historic Israel-Lebanon talks were a productive first step toward full negotiations. Without specific commitment, there are already plans to talk again. And with just eight days left in the U.S. - Iran ceasefire, pressure is mounting for them to restart their stalled dialogue.


    Also: A new study shows GLP-1 drugs can treat fatty liver disease — even in patients who don’t lose weight. The patients can take lower doses of the drug and still benefit, so they may be able to avoid the side effects. The Canadian Liver Foundation says the disease affects at least 25 per cent of Canadians, and can be fatal if left untreated.


    Plus: Protesting changes to refugee health care, opposition position in face of Liberal majority, and more.
