Canada and other countries will have to wait until mid-October to learn whether the U.S. Supreme Court will hear a case about Donald Trump's tariffs. On Friday, a U.S. Federal Appeals Court ruled many of them illegal, but is allowing the tariffs to continue for now. As Caroline Bargut reports, the White House is striking a defiant tone.
