More underweighted meat, corporate veterinarians, immigration crackdown, and more

More Canadians are finding they’ve been overcharged for meat weighed at the grocery stores. And some are saying – the enforcement isn’t strong enough. Most of the time, there are no penalties, although the Canadian Food Inspection Agency has the power to impose them.

Also: Corporations are getting into the veterinary business. A joint investigation between The Fifth Estate, Marketplace – and Radio-Canada’s Enquete and La Facture looks at the changing pet care industry. And how it might affect prices when you take your pet in for health care.

And: The immigration crackdown begins in the U.S. Already hundreds of people have been deported to Guatemala via military plane. Critics are questioning the tactics and the use of the military in the new president’s plan.

Plus: Vancouver’s plan to deal with the Downtown East Side, sedentary kids, returning home in Gaza, and more.
