The West Block: Jan. 14, 2024 | Potential fallout from airstrikes on Houthi sites in Yemen

Concerns in the Middle East are rising following U.S. and U.K. targeted airstrikes on Houthi-linked sites in Yemen. These airstrikes come as U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken wraps up his latest tour of the region. ‘The West Block’ guest host Eric Sorensen speaks with Frank Lowenstein, a former U.S. special envoy for Israeli-Palestinian negotiations, on the implications of the U.S.-led strikes on Houthi sites, the White House’s diplomacy in the region, and the next stages of the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Plus, Hospital emergency rooms across Canada are being run at near- or over-capacity. The Canadian Medical Association is calling on the federal and provincial governments to urgently address the ER crisis. Sorensen sits down with a panel of doctors, Dr. Kathleen Ross (CMA) and Dr. Trevor Jain (Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians), to discuss the issue of lengthy ER wait times, how politicians should address the crisis, and more.
