- U.S. President Donald Trump has suddenly escalated his trade war with Canada, announcing 50 per cent tariffs on most Canadian imports. Jillian Piper explains how Trump is justifying the move and when the levies kick in, while Dawna Friesen looks at how Prime Minister Mark Carney is reacting.
Canada and the U.S. have a longstanding agreement to help each other fight wildfires, but that's not stopping Trump from complaining about the smoke from Ontario's blazes.

Ford also replied to U.S. President Donald Trump's criticisms, who on Sunday told Prime Minister Mark Carney that the smoke emanating from Canada was “poisoning” the U.S.
“One of the largest fires started from Minnesota,” Ford shot back. The Ontario premier suggested if Trump removed tariffs on softwood lumber “it might make a difference… He's sitting there complaining, why don't you send up some water bombers?” Ford said.
He added, “You should support your neighbours. That's my message to the president… it drives me crazy.”

- Authorities in India forcibly transferred activist Sonam Wangchuk to a hospital in New Delhi, in compliance with the court's order, police said on Saturday, after his health deteriorated during a 20-day hunger strike. Wangchuk, 59, has been fasting since June 28.
The strike is part of the youth-led Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) movement for education reform. Wangchuk and others demand the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over massive exam paper leaks in May that affected millions of students.
The movement also seeks reforms to the exam system and compensation for families affected by related suicides. Police say Wangchuk's hospitalization followed medical advice and a court directive. The founder of the Cockroach Party, Abhijeet Dipke, announced he would also begin a hunger strike.
CJP's founder, Abhijeet Dipke, said Wangchuk was "forcibly dragged away by the Delhi police," who also assaulted him and denied him entry to the pr...

- Global Exclusive: The B.C. man who was detained for two months in Georgia for trying to bring in his prescription ADHD medication spoke exclusively to Global's Julie Nolin about his terrifying ordeal.
Simon Rovensky, 22, says a dream vacation became a terrifying ordeal when he was arrested for carrying prescription ADHD medication.
He spent nearly two months in Gldani Prison before being released after his family raised tens of thousands of dollars to cover a fine, legal fees and other costs.
Rovensky said Georgian authorities appeared to regard the medication as a narcotic. Although it was in its original pharmacy container and he had a receipt, he did not have a paper copy of his prescription that had been translated into Georgian.

- Despite having won two of the last three elections, U.S. President Donald Trump is firm in his belief that American elections and their results are at risk. It’s a years-long claim that Trump is revisiting as his party faces a potential loss in November’s midterms.
Trump’s amplification of debunked theories about the presidential election six years ago and his inability to accept his loss led to one of the darker moments in American history when a mob of his supporters led a violent attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in the final days of his first term.
Now back in power, Trump opted to revisit the subject, despite persistent voter concerns about the cost of living, American forces escalating strikes on Iran in a conflict for which there is no end in sight, and an immigration crackdown facing bipartisan scrutiny for its sometimes deadly tactics.

“He had full accesses into my information, for this reason I never questioned him or never doubt(ed) that he was a Rogers employee who called me,” Rahimi tells Global News.
When the phone finally shipped, Rahimi says the caller knew when it was supposed to arrive and he had contract and billing details.
The caller then asked Rahimi to ship both the new phone and her old phone back so that the phone numbers could be combined under one account.
It wasn’t until after she sent the UPS package supposedly back to Rogers that she realized she may have been duped.

Speaking at the joint press conference in Ottawa, Mexico’s Foreign Affairs Secretary Roberto Velasco Álvarez said Mexico hosts only one Chinese automaker and relies on Chinese imports "for mainly the lowest cost vehicle sector of our market."
"We implemented some new tariffs in January as part of a broader strategy of industrial relocalization," Velasco said, adding that his country was looking for ways to coordinate with Canada and the US regarding tariffs.
Anand reinforced the regional alliance, stating that Canada remains focused on "securing access for Canadian businesses, Canadian workers, to two of our largest trading partners."
