Summary
Canada is shut out of CUSMA talks while the U.S. and Mexico hold a second round of negotiations. Industry Minister Joly is flying to Shanghai to convince Chinese automakers to build in Canada, a move U.S. officials have repeatedly warned would trigger tariff retaliation. And a 1992 CSIS memo warning that Islamic extremists would bypass security checks by filing refugee claims has resurfaced alongside current terrorism proceedings in Montreal, Toronto and Scarborough. Parliament rises for summer recess tomorrow with Bill C-36 tabled one day before the break, a new digital privacy bill creating a commission to replace the Privacy Commissioner's private-sector oversight role. B.C.'s decriminalization experiment has been confirmed by Health Canada's own figures to have increased overdose deaths 12% during its operation and reduced them 22% once enforcement resumed, yet the Health Minister refuses to call it a failure. And an 87-year-old Richmond man is sleeping at Tim Hortons every night because he cannot afford rent.
