The World This Hour for 2025/05/07 at 11:00 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 in Ottawa and this afternoon is scheduled to meet with the premiers. And it's possible he'll be suggesting that a revised North American 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 honor 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 MCA data? 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 Cananaskis, Alberta in June. Why not, he says, invite Mexico's president and use KUSMA as a way of resetting the trade relationship and jump-starting 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 Garg 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

Mishri saying India ensured 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, cancelling flights to avoid the region's airspace. Ishan Kirk for CBC News, New Delhi. Now to the Vatican. Choir singing

That's the cardinals who will be selecting the next pope, making their way into the Sistine Chapel. Soon, they'll be sequestered until the next pontiff is chosen. This conclave is unique. It's the largest in the history of the church, with close to half of the 133 cardinals having being named by the late Pope Francis, and many are from countries that have never had a cardinal before.
