Addressing Geopolitical Challenges and Economic Responsibilities

Former Canadian ambassador to Israel Jon Allen and University of Ottawa professor Thomas Juneau discuss how allies will respond to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's vow to control all of Gaza at the end of the war, after Canada, France and the U.K. made a statement warning Israel to stop its offensive and allow aid into the strip. Allen calls the Israeli military's firing of 'warning shots' in the vicinity of a group of diplomats in the West Bank — which Canada's foreign minister says included four Canadian personnel — 'almost unheard of,' adding that the lack of protection is 'unconscionable.' Plus, CBC's Katie Simpson has the latest on how U.S. President Donald Trump confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa in the Oval Office with baseless claims about targeted killings of white farmers.
