Global National: May 14, 2024 | Early wildfire season keeps Western Canada evacuees on edge
Dozens of wildfires are raging from B.C. to Manitoba, with many communities under threat. Neetu Garcha reports on the rising anxiety among evacuees, the local states of emergency and the hope the weather could provide a much-needed reprieve. Correctional Service Canada (CSC) instructed staff to keep quiet over murderer Luka Magnotta's August 2022 transfer from a maximum to a medium security prison, according to newly-obtained documents. Touria Izri explains the CSC's rationale and the calls for more transparency. Honda has selected Port Colborne, Ont., as the future site of a lithium ion separator plant, the first of its kind in Canada and a key part of the country's multibillion-dollar electric vehicle supply chain. The news coincides with the U.S. slapping heavy tariffs on Chinese electric cars, batteries, and minerals used to make those batteries. Mike Drolet explains what's behind the White House's decision, what it will likely mean for Canada and the broader ripple effects of a trade war. Michael Cohen, the fixer-turned-foe of former U.S. president Donald Trump, is now being cross-examined about an alleged hush money scheme prior to the 2016 presidential election. Jackson Proskow reports on what Cohen says he was urged not to do. Georgia has passed a highly controversial "foreign agents" bill that critics warn is inspired by similar, repressive legislation in Russia. Redmond Shannon explains why the legislation is so divisive and the chaos unfolding both inside and outside of Georgia's parliament. Plus, Canadian author and Nobel Prize winner Alice Munro has died at the age 92. Eric Sorensen looks back on how this literary icon mastered the art of the short story.
