Public support for Prime Minister Mark Carney - and his minority Liberal government - is holding steady at 50 percent. This achievement is despite Canada's failure to reach a new trade agreement with the U.S. ahead of the August 1st deadline. Vassy Kapelos chats with David Coletto, the CEO of Abacus Data, about the latest public opinion polls.
On today's show:
- Another heatwave is impacting portions of Pacific, Central, and Eastern Canada. CTV's Lindsay Morrison delivers the details.
- For the first time in 3 years, Obesity Canada has updated its guidance for doctors, and how they treat cases of obesity. We dig deeper with Dr. Sue Pedersen, an endocrinologist and obesity medicine specialist at Calgary's C-ENDO Clinic.
- Unless their union is able to strike a deal over the coming days, roughly 10,000 Air Canada flight attendants could strike this weekend. Dropping by the studios to discuss further is Wesley Lesosky, the President of CUPE's Air Canada Component.
