Today, we're looking at Liberal leadership contender Mark Carney soft launching his campaign on US airwaves via The Daily Show, where the former central banker and UN climate envoy described himself as an "outsider" candidate in the race.

Plus, Canadians are preparing for tariffs on exports to the United States with less than a week to go before President-elect Donald Trump assumes office. Will Canada's newly announced border measures be enough to prevent a trade war?

And finally, in a twist to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's infamous "#WelcomeToCanada" comment from almost exactly eight years ago in 2017, Immigration Minister Marc Miller says illegal immigrants fleeing the United States to come to Canada are "not welcome."

Today, we have reactions to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau finally announcing what many Canadians have been desiring — that he's stepping down as leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. The announcement comes with a catch, however, that the PM has prorogued Parliament until March 24 and will remain on as leader in the meantime.
