Fires, smoke, floods, heat; Trump gives Russia 50 days; Carney ethics screen; and more

Canada is vying for all the wrong kinds of records: It’s already the second-worst wildfire season on record. This morning – thanks in part to all the smoke – Toronto was the second-most polluted major city in the world. In Quebec, residents are cleaning up after a massive storm knocked out power, and flooded streets and homes.

And: U.S. President Donald Trump says Russia has 50 days to reach a peace deal in Ukraine. After that, Trump says he will impose secondary tariffs of 100 per cent on Russia.

Also: The opposition is calling on Mark Carney to sell all of his assets, and get someone else to reinvest them.

Plus: Canadians got more obese during the pandemic, the U.S. debates legislation on cryptocurrency, and more.
