In tonight’s top story: There is a firestorm of reaction to the tariffs U.S. President Donald Trump has imposed on Canadian exports. Canadian industries are blasting America’s decision to punish its closest ally and trading partner. And economists on both sides of the border are warning the tariffs will only backfire. Mackenzie Gray reports.
And with Canadians already starting to feel the impact of the Republican leader’s tariffs, our Heidi Petracek looks at the trickle-down effect and how provinces, businesses and consumers are pushing back.

"Canadian Dave," as he’s become known, is considered a hero for helping to free more than a hundred Afghans during the fall of Kabul in 2021. It was upon return to Afghanistan last November – to help others escape – that he was captured. Here, Jeff Semple speaks with the now-free man.
