B.C. wildfires, wildfire health risks, Gordie Howe Bridge ceremony, and more

About this episode

Crews are battling wildfires all over Canada. More than 900 are burning, with dozens out of control, including in Ontario, Saskatchewan, and the Northwest Territories. In B.C., the situation is growing more dire by the day, with new evacuation orders issued, and two major blazes in the Fraser Canyon merging, effectively surrounding the community of Boston Bar.


Also: A new Canadian study links a spike in migraine-related hospital visits to a rise in wildfire smoke.


And: After months of delays, the Gordie Howe International Bridge is ready to open. But, today’s ribbon-cutting ceremony was absent of US officials, after Canada cancelled a joint-event following another tariff threat from President Donald Trump.


Plus: Fresh violence in the Occupied West Bank, Cockroach Party protests in India, LeBron James becomes a Philadelphia 76er, and more.
