Trump's “Department of War" Isn't Even The Craziest Story This Week

The "Department of War" is now official U.S. policy under Donald Trump. But as insane as that is, what could possibly be crazier? The story of him as a secret FBI informant on Jeffrey Epstein , and Florida deciding that measles are now optional for everyone. We break down a week of absolute madness—from north of the border. 👉 Watch this next: https://youtu.be/ikXv5k7747E?si=XffP6Xz3ZcFImUxa

This week, the absurd became reality. We're unpacking Speaker Mike Johnson's bizarre claim about Trump and Epstein, and the official renaming of the Pentagon. With Trump's new Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, promising "maximum lethality," what does this mean for Canada? We also dive into the G20 summit being held at Trump's Miami golf course , his promise of an economic recovery... in 2027 , and Florida's reckless decision on public health.

While America descends into chaos, we look at the real policies Prime Minister Mark Carney is rolling out to protect Canadian workers and industries from the fallout.
Plus, we pay our respects to a true Canadian icon and public servant, Ken Dryden.
