REBEL ROUNDUP | Canada to recognize Palestine, US trade deadline looms, Charter-protected bike lanes
Published 8 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Today, we're looking at Prime Minister Mark Carney's declaration that Canada will recognize a Palestinian state this September — pending conditions — following on the heels of similar announcements from France and the United Kingdom.
Plus, President Trump's August 1 deadline for trade deals is just hours away. With the U.S. making deals with many other countries, Carney suggested there was a possibility negotiations with the Americans would extend beyond the deadline, meaning Canada may face steep tariffs.
And finally, a judge in Ontario blocked Premier Doug Ford's plan to remove bike lanes in Toronto, arguing the lanes were protected by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
