Canada vs. Qatar, Iran MOU fallout, prediction markets in Canada, and more

About this episode

History on home soil? Canada’s men's soccer team steps onto the pitch at Vancouver's BC Place tonight, chasing a historic milestone: their first-ever World Cup victory.


Also: The 60-day counter has started for the ceasefire between Iran and the U.S. The next step: formal negotiations in Switzerland. In the meantime, ships are on the move in the Strait of Hormuz, and U.S. President Donald Trump is declaring victory — for now. What’s not clear: what it all means for Israel and its fight with Hezbollah in Lebanon.


And: How much would you wager on being able to guess tomorrow’s temperature? A Toronto-based financial services company is betting the answer is… a lot. Canadians have had limited access to prediction markets that are raising billions in the U.S. and elsewhere. That’s about to change.


Plus: FIFA hydration breaks, Ukraine strikes Russia , AI costs, and more.
