From CBC News, the world this hour. I'm Claude Fague. The U.S. Court of International Trade has ruled today that President Donald Trump does not have the authority to impose his Liberation Day tariffs or his fentanyl related duties against Canada and Mexico. The three judge panel says Trump cannot wield tariffs on nearly every country through the use of the International Economic Emergency Powers Act. To Manitoba. This is the largest evacuation Manitoba will have seen in most people's living memory. Premier Wab Kanu says the state of emergency is now in place to respond to the wildfire crisis. More than 17,000 people are being ordered to evacuate and that includes several First Nations and the northern city of Flynn Flawn. Canoe had this message for evacuees.

This is a moment of fear and uncertainty, but I want to tell you that your fellow Manitobans will welcome you. We will get through this difficult period and we'll get through this trying period the way that we always do, by working together. Canoe says the majority of evacuees will head to Winnipeg and be housed at large facilities, including arenas.

The premier added that Prime Minister Mark Carney has accepted the province's request for the Canadian Armed Forces to step in and help. Police in West Vancouver say a child has died and two others are in hospital following a bus crash near a ferry terminal. Police say the three people were hit by a trans-linked bus near the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal on Wednesday.

Officers have now confirmed that a four-year-old boy died and his mother is in critical condition. A third person is in stable condition. It's unclear what led to the collision. President Trump has indicated he'll impose a deadline for Vladimir Putin on agreeing to a ceasefire in Ukraine. Speaking to reporters, he said that if the Russian leader were still stringing him along in two weeks, his stance could change. We're going to find out very soon.

We're going to find out whether or not he's tapping us along or not. And if he is, we'll respond a little bit differently, but it'll take about a week and a half, two weeks. Mr. Witkoff is here, he's doing a phenomenal job dealing with them very strongly right now. They seem to want to do something, but until the document is signed, I can't tell you, nobody can. Mark Carney has faced a lot of the first tests as Canada's new prime minister.

Today it was his first question period. As Kate McKenna reports, the opposition wasted no time criticizing the government's agenda. I would like to welcome the prime minister to his first official question period. Opposition leader Andrew Scheer started Prime Minister Mark Carney's first question period on a cordial note. But the warm welcome didn't last long. Carney was grilled on the government's response to tariffs, energy policy, and why his government isn't tabling a spring budget. If he's the man with the plan and the guy you hire in a crisis,

why won't he table a budget before he goes on summer vacation? Carney deflected, saying the Conservatives didn't promise a spring budget either. Mr. Speaker, I understand the member of the opposition is very busy, didn't have a chance to study closely the 100-day plan of the former member from Ottawa, Carlton, which did not include a budget. Hey, I'd love to be in there. Conservative leader Pierre Polyev spoke to reporters outside the House of Commons after failing to win his seat he has to watch proceedings from outside the chamber until he wins a by-election
