According to the new U.S. Ambassador to Canada, the ‘51st State’ rhetoric is a thing of the past after U.S. President Trump’s meeting with Prime Minister Carney.

At the same time, Pete Hoekstra says this type of rhetoric isn’t new, and that it had been addressed before the Trump regime was revived. Is this idea officially buried six feet under? Kristy Cameron sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Speaking of the U.S. President, it appears that he just struck a deal with the United Kingdom.

We gather instant reaction from Fen Osler Hampson, a Professor of International Affairs at Carleton University. And shifting gears to local law enforcement, the Ottawa Police Service is celebrating a ‘significant step forward’ for its new South End police station. However, it also encountered some early-construction snags. We gather the details from CTV’s Ted Raymond.

Fleeing from an out-of-control wildfire near her Northern Ontario home in Sandy Lake First Nation, she had slept for less than an hour after arriving more than 1,500 kilometres away in Cornwall.“All I saw was orange,” Ms. Fiddler, 51, said Monday afternoon, recalling her 11-hour wait at the Sandy Lake airport, where military aircraft and helicopters have been landing since Saturday, struggling to airlift nearly 3,000 people amid heavy smoke.
