Description

Today on The Peak Daily, we’re breaking down a new wave of “digital arrest” scams that use fake police-station sets and video calls to intimidate victims into sending money — and what Canada may do next to curb fraud. Then, we look at the rough patch hitting the video game industry as Eidos Montréal cuts staff and cancels a long-running project, and what the downturn means for Canada’s gaming economy. Plus, OpenAI’s massive new funding round, signs Trump may be ready to wind down the Iran conflict, and a major change that will let more Canadians see nurse practitioners without paying out of pocket.
