As first reported by the Globe and Mail, a source confirms to CBC's J.P. Tasker that Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Prime Minister Mark Carney are moving closer to reaching a deal on the future of Alberta's energy sector, and that it's likely to include some language about a path forward for a northwest B.C. oil pipeline. RCMP Commissioner Mike Duheme explains how Canada is working with the U.S. to pursue former Canadian Olympian Ryan Wedding, who U.S. officials accuse of being one of the world's most powerful drug lords and of murdering a federal witness. Plus, Swedish Defence Minister Pål Jonson makes the case for Canada to buy Saab's Gripen fighter jets.
