The secondary nugget is all about the economy, and Canada’s complicated relationship with the United States. In a nutshell, if the two sides can’t reach a trade deal by July 21st, Mark Carney has a series of countermeasures up his sleeve.

A new study from CAA, which was powered by Artificial Intelligence, has uncovered a series of major concerns that pedestrians and cyclists are facing every day.

Joining Kristy Cameron to discuss further is Julie Beun, the Managing Director of Communications and Public Relations with CAA North and East Ontario.
