Description
June 8, 2025
After the new German Chancellor had a successful meeting in the Oval Office, Friedrich Merz reveals what he feels is the best way for world leaders to deal with President Trump. We speak with the German Ambassador to Canada about that, as well as the submarine deal that country is pitching to Ottawa. Plus, critical minerals are key in everything from defence to your smartphone. While the U.S. has some of the least amount of mineral and metal resources in the world, Canada has some of the largest amounts available. We find out what they are and how they could strengthen Canada's bargaining hand.
