The World This Hour for 2025/05/07 at 07:00 EDT

When a body is discovered 10 miles out to sea, it sparks a mind-blowing police investigation. There's a man living in this address in the name of a deceased. He's one of the most wanted men in the world. This isn't really happening. Officers are finding large sums of money. It's a tale of murder, skullduggery and international intrigue. So who really is he? I'm Sam Mullins and this is Sea of Lies from CBC's Uncovered, available now.

From CBC News, it's the world this hour. I'm Joe Cummings. After his visit yesterday to the White House, Prime Minister Mark Carney is back now in Ottawa and is scheduled today to meet with the premiers. And it appears he'll be suggesting that a revised Canada-U.S. trade deal will be the key to limiting the Trump administration's tariff campaign. Peter Armstrong reports. Thank you very much everybody.

It's a great honour to have Prime Minister Mark Carney. There was a subtle but important message in yesterday's meeting between Donald Trump and Mark Carney. Did you give us an MCA there? No, it was actually very effective and it's still very effective but people have to follow it. Goldie Heider, president of the Business Council of Canada, says he's been telling businesses that the path through the trade war lies within the confines of the Canada U.S. Mexico free trade deal. And I think the president has opened a wide open door and we need to drive through it. Heider says Carney and Trump are set to meet in person again at the G7 summit in Cananascis,

Alberta in June. Why not, he says, invite Mexico's president and use KUSMA as a way of resetting the trade relationship and jumpstarting negotiations to end the trade war. Peter Armstrong, CBC News, Washington. The United Nations is urging restraint, but Pakistan is calling it an act of war. This after India carried out multiple missile strikes overnight on Pakistani territory. Ishan Gurk has the latest now from New Delhi. Indian missiles hit nine locations

in Pakistani territory. Five of them in Pakistan administered Kashmir and four in mainland Pakistan. Indian officials say all of the targets were terrorist hideouts. And in what's being called India's biggest counter-terrorism offensive, officials say they have responded to the Pehelgaum attack that killed at least 26 people two weeks ago, an attack India says was backed by Islamabad. India exercised its right to respond and preempt,

as well as deter more such cross-border attacks. That's India's Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri saying India insured no civilian or military properties were hit. Pakistan is vowing to respond to what it calls an act of war. Both sides are exchanging gunfire and firing projectiles. Asian and French airlines are diverting and in some cases canceling flights to avoid the region's airspace. Ishan Kirk for CBC News, New Delhi. Last month we brought you the story of a family from El Salvador that was jailed twice in a U.S. port of entry after trying to enter Canada. Now we can report that a federal court

challenge has given them a chance to legally enter the country to make an asylum claim. Jorge Barrera has more. Aracely Serrano says she feels hope. This time, Canada will let her in with her daughters Madeleine, 14, and Itziana, 4. In March, Aracely and her husband fled to Canada to escape the immigration crackdown in the U.S. Canadian border officials rejected documents Aracely said proved she had two brothers living in Canada, key to making an asylum claim. Canada sent the family back twice to the U.S. where they were held for two weeks in a Niagara Falls, New York, port of entry holding cell.

No windows, no breath of fresh air. I think finally the government has recognized that they did the wrong thing. Aracely's lawyer Heather Neufeld says Canada agreed to let the family in after she filed the court challenge. We're here says Aracely. Jorge Barrera, CBC News, Niagara Falls, Ontario. The odds are you'll be hearing this at some time today. It is test day for Canada's Alert Ready Emergency Public Warning System. Once a year, the system gets a test run with that distinctive two-beat drone broadcast on TV, radio and most wireless devices.

You can check the alert-ready website for the time it's going out in your province or territory. And that is The World This Hour. For CBC News, I'm Joe Cummings.
