Navigating Childhood Obesity: New Guidelines and Personal Journeys

Canada’s party leaders react to a proposal to circumvent the constitution to get tougher on convicted criminals. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre says he’s willing to use the notwithstanding clause to allow for longer prison sentences. Liberal Leader Mark Carney called using the plan “a dangerous step.”

And: Donald Trump may be changing his plans for global trade... again. The U.S. president says he's considering helping U.S.-based auto-makers, maybe by holding off on tariffs for parts from Mexico... and Canada. That could help Canadian workers – for a while. But Trump's long-term goal is still to bring auto sector jobs to the U.S.

Also: Obesity researchers in Canada are pushing a major rethink in the treatment of children with obesity. The guidelines define obesity as a chronic health problem, and encourage doctors to break down the stigma associated with it. And that interventions like drugs or surgery should be considered only in limited circumstances.

Plus: Trump edges close to defying the Supreme Court, why so few candidates are talking about the climate crisis, hope for infrastructure spending in the North, and more.
