from Your World Tonight
We are now just days away from a trade deal deadline with the United States. Canada has until August 1st to cut a deal. If it doesn't, the Trump-administration is threatening steep tariffs on many Canadian exports. The U.S. commerce secretary says free trade with Canada is alive and well. But even if a deal is struck, it is likely some tariffs are here to stay.Also: It's been one of the deadliest days in Gaza for Palestinians seeking aid. Dozens are dead after a large crowd gathered around a UN convoy carrying food. It comes as Israel's military plans to step up its ground offensive in the territory.And: 20 years ago today, Canada made it legal for same sex couples to get married nationwide. But while legalized same sex marriage is a significant civil rights victory - advocates say the fight for true equality is still ongoing.Plus: Hong Kong businesses targeted for pro-democracy view, empty crown land in B.C., and more.
