Summary
Police are investigating a shooting outside a synagogue in Belleville, Ont. Seán O'Shea reports on the police officer wounded, and the rising concerns about antisemitism. Jeff Semple looks at the new legislation the federal Liberals have tabled, what powers the "Building Canada Strong Act" will give the party, and what experts are warning about. U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening to buy potash from Belarus instead of Canada, the world's leading producer and exporter of potash. Mackenzie Gray explains how replacing Canadian imports will likely prove to be quite challenging; and the concerns that buying from Belarus supports Russian aggression. Jackson Proskow explains how other major media outlets are responding, after Trump banned CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House. Those three outlets, by the way, have now launched a lawsuit. Ben O'Hara-Byrne reports on the growing speculation British Columbia Premier David Eby is about to call a snap election, as the opposition Conservative MPs race to regroup after weeks of chaos, including the resignation of its leader. On Sept. 21, 2025, Darius Macdougall, 6, vanished from a campsite in the Crowsnest Pass area of southwestern Alberta. He hasn't been seen since. Heather Yourex-West reports on the struggle to find Macdougall, how his family is pushing for change in missing child investigations, and the heartwrenching message from his grandparents. Plus, two New Brunswickers are pushing to add Acadia's flag as an emoji, but it's not an easy process. Heidi Petracek explains why. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
