North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) members, including Canada, have all agreed to invest five per cent of their respective GDPs on defence by 2035. Mackenzie Gray explains how Prime Minister Mark Carney plans to meet Canada's new $150 billion annual target, and how it could cost Canadians. There's a lack of clarity on how much of Iran's nuclear capability was destroyed by American bombs. Jackson Proskow reports on the disparity between U.S. President Donald Trump's claims of the program being "obliterated" and some intelligence assessments of the attack. Questions are being renewed about a ceasefire in Gaza now that the Israel-Iran truce appears to be holding. Neetu Garcha speaks with Iranian-Canadians about how they're coping with that fragile ceasefire and their home country's uncertain future. With help with journalists on the ground in Gaza, Mike Armstrong explains how Palestinians feel their crisis is being ignored, and the international calls for Israel and Hamas to reach a peace deal. A man injured in last week's rockslide at Banff National Park's Bow Glacier Falls is remembering his friend who died in the tragedy. Heather Yourex-West hears from Khaled Elgamal, who owes his life to Hamza Benhilal. Plus: Maine squeeze. Heidi Petracek reports on Maine's campaign to win back Canadian tourists. And Dawna Friesen looks at why NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte referred to Trump as "Daddy."
