Air Canada clock ticking, carbon tax politics, AI powered apps helping young Canadians deal with mental health, and more

Air Canada and its pilots are still talking to strike a deal. But if Sunday passes without an agreement, the nation’s largest airline says it will start grounding its planes. Tens of thousands of passengers will be affected.

Also: More fallout from the public falling out between federal Liberals and NDP. This time over carbon pricing. The federal NDP and their B.C. counterparts are both hinting the tax needs a rethink as it has become politically unpopular.

Plus: New apps powered by artificial intelligence are aiming to help young Canadians with mental health challenges. Experts say the tech could help an overburdened system, but there are concerns about a lack of safeguards.

And: Terror suspect in court, fewer world premieres at TIFF has an upside for Canadian films, and an attack near a supervised consumption site in Kingston, Ontario has sparked calls for its closure.
