Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is calling for interparty unity in
the face of Donald Trump’s threat to impose tariffs on Canadian
goods. But it didn’t take long for the Liberal-Conservative
divisions to appear. So is it still realistic to talk about Team
Canada? Two Ottawa bureau chiefs weigh in on Canada’s attempt to
show a united front against the incoming U.S. president.

Next, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly joins Catherine
Cullen to discuss Canada’s new Arctic foreign policy, the crisis
in the Middle East and whether there’s a way to stop Trump’s
tariff threat before the president-elect takes office in January.

Then, representatives and experts of Canadian universities and
colleges explain how the federal government’s dramatic cut in
international student visas will affect their institutions,
including whether they need to shave programs. Minister of
Immigration Marc Miller and Ontario Minister of Finance Peter
Bethlenfalvy also share their thoughts on who’s to blame for the
funding crisis facing Canadian post-secondary institutions.
