Trudeau's Troubles: Pipelines, Tariffs, and the Wrath of Trump

This week's Global Research News Hour sets its gaze on the challenges facing the Trudeau government domestically and in its relations with the Trump Administration. We first hear from Energy Analyst David Hughes, the author of a CCPA report on Canada's Energy Outlook. He tackles the economic and environmental viability of the Trudeau government's determined purchase of Kinder Morgan's Trans-Mountain pipeline, and suggests different priorities the government can explore. We next hear from political activist, author and organic farmer David Orchard about the tariffs the Trump administration is aiming at Canada and why Canada can and should abandon its obsession with saving NAFTA. Finally, Moscow based journalist John Helmer attempts to make sense of the Trump Administration's 'coordinated' attack on Prime Minister as the sun sets on the recent G7 meeting.
