sponsored by IG private wealth management.
From CBC News, the world this hour. I'm Claude Fague. Saskatchewan is the latest province
to declare a state of emergency over wildfires. Premier Scott Moe says he wants to prepare communities in his province for what may be ahead,
especially with continuing hot, dry weather.
It's a very serious situation
that we're faced with in Saskatchewan.
We do need some rainfall.
We need that sooner rather than later.
And in light of that not being in the forecast,
we most certainly are putting in place
every measure possible to prepare our province,
prepare our communities, and prepare those that live in our northern communities that
are threatened by these wildfires in the days ahead.
Fire officials estimate eight blazes are burning out of control in the northern part of the
province.
The biggest one, 216,000 hectares.
Several communities have already been evacuated.
Now, Premier Moe says Saskatchewan officials are working closely with their Manitoba counterparts.
That province declared a state of emergency yesterday.
Everybody was just scared because we never knew what was going to happen.
Gina Malatay is one of the 5,000 people forced to flee Flynn Flawn, Manitoba.
She and her family drove through the night to make it to Winnipeg.
The Flynn Flon fire has grown to about 20,000 hectares, but officials say it has not yet crossed
into the city. In Ontario, we've been arrested by our tactical support unit without incident.
That is Durham Region Police Chief Peter Morerup following the arrest of a 13-year-old boy for the stabbing of an elderly
woman earlier today.
The fatal stabbing occurred in Pickering, that's east of Toronto.
A shelter-in-place order had been in effect as police searched for the suspect, who left
the woman with critical injuries.
She later died in hospital.
An emergency alert also prompted the City of Pickering to shut down all public facilities,
including community centers and library branches.
Chief Morera was asked about a possible connection between the victim and alleged suspect.
That forms part of our investigation at this point.
There doesn't seem to be, but the investigation will reveal exactly what the relationship, if any,
existed between the victim
and who we allege to be the perpetrator. Moreira called the stabbing a quote sadistic and cowardly
unprovoked attack. The White House says there is no plan B when it comes to tariffs. The Trump
administration insists it will find a way to enact them even after the, as the sweeping import taxes imposed on virtually all other
countries are challenged in court on home soil.
Aaron Collins reports.
The White House pushing back against a court ruling that most of its tariffs are illegal.
The administration has appealed that decision, keeping the tariffs in place for now.
And Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro says no matter what happens in court, they are
here to stay.
Even if we lose, we will do it another way.
Dan Rayfield is Oregon's attorney general, one of the states that challenged the tariffs.
He says the Trump administration is out of line when questioning the validity of judges.
It's absolutely rhetoric, and those are the type of things you say when you're losing
consistently in court.
This fight over Trump's tariffs likely to end up in the Supreme Court.
No matter what happens there, it won't impact Canada much.
The tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum aren't covered under this ruling.
Aaron Collins, CBC News, Washington.
The UN's top official responsible for humanitarian aid has said the people of Gaza are being
subjected to forced starvation by Israel.
Tom Fletcher says the world has a responsibility to take greater action to get aid in.
I think that history will be tough in the way it judges us, and it must be.
I think that a lot of what we've been seeing has been telegraphed, it's been announced in advance. We can't say we didn't know what was happening.
And all I'm asking is for the international community to be able to say, tell them
we did what we could. Fletcher again called on the international community to prevent genocide in
Gaza. He's also denied Israel's allegations that much of the aid sent into Gaza had been stolen by Hamas.
And that is Your World This Hour.
