He says he’s the only leader trying to make life affordable for Canadians.And: Donald Trump "knew about the girls.” That’s one of the comments in emails released from convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. In messages to his friend Ghislaine Maxwell and to author Michael Wolff, Epstein seems to suggest Trump was more aware of his illegal activities than was previously known.Also: International tourism to the U.S. is down from last year—to the tune of nearly $5.7 billion US. Much of that is because Canadians don’t want to go there anymore.Plus: Refugee claims surge, vacationers tossed out of hotel rooms amid bankruptcy, court approves Ontario plan to expand gambling, and more.
