Mark Carney has launched his bid to be leader of the Liberal Party, and the next prime minister of Canada. He’s painting himself as an outsider – because he has never held elected office. Carney says his main goal will be fixing the economy.


And: A family fight is brewing in Canadian leadership, as the prime minister calls out Alberta Premier Danielle Smith for refusing to sign on to the federal plan on dealing with Donald Trump's tariff threat. Smith says a real Team Canada approach shouldn’t threaten export taxes on energy. She says the deal needs to show “respect” for Alberta taxpayers who've paid equalization transfers for decades.


Also: A ceasefire seems tantalizingly close in the Middle East. But hasn’t been fully approved. U.S. officials call the delay a loose end, while Israel's prime minister calls it a last-minute crisis.


Plus: Some evacuees of the Los Angeles wildfires return home to survey their damage, and loss; the efforts to get new medications to Canadians more quickly; the ticking clock in the U.S. on TikTok’s fate, and more.
