Intro

A judge blocks – for now – the White House attempt to ban Harvard from accepting international students. The uncertainty about what happens next is leaving students – including Canadians – in limbo. It’s the latest front in the war between U.S. President Donald Trump and elite universities.

Also: Trump is threatening the European Union with 50 per cent tariffs – saying trade negotiations are “going nowhere”. He also says Apple should face 25 per cent tariffs on iPhones not made in America.

And: Ukraine and Russia trade hundreds of prisoners of war, as talks are underway to get some sort of ceasefire in place.

Plus: Canada’s energy minister tries to reset the relationship with industry, Canada Post union refuses overtime, Attenborough documentary looks at ocean trawling, and more.
