As Denmark sleeps, the ‘night watch’ keeps tabs on Trump

from As It Happens

After Donald Trump's threats to annex Greenland, Denmark's Foreign Affairs Ministry establishes a new "night watch" of bureaucrats -- who keep an eye on the U.S. President after hours. A B.C. Indigenous leader says he's not interested in sitting down with a minister from Alberta's government -- because he is never going to support a bitumen pipeline. There are furious calls for accountability after a video the UN is calling an "apparent summary execution" by Israeli border police is broadcast. A human rights advocate tells us that accountability won't happen. After months of pressure, Nova Scotia releases a draft report from a special panel on environmental racism. Our guest tells us it's about time the province answers the call for a formal apology.Archeologists say they now have hard evidence that a ring of large pits discovered near Stonehenge were made by humans some 4,000 years ago -- but why is still a mystery. A South Korean man was charged with theft after taking about a dollar's worth of treats from the office refrigerator -- and after his employer takes him to court, he finds himself snack-dab in the middle of a major case. As It Happens, the Friday Edition. Radio that shares an embarrassment of fridges.
