Prime Minister Mark Carney's trade deal with China has sent a jolt through Canada and beyond. In exchange for allowing more Chinese-made electric vehicles to enter the Canadian market, Beijing has agreed to lower duties on some agricultural and seafood products. Catherine Cullen first speaks with Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew about what the deal means for his province; then former Conservative leader Erin O'Toole discusses the risks of a closer relationship with China; and Business Council of Canada CEO Goldy Hyder discusses the PM's possible calculus behind the deal.Plus, Carney is not the first prime minister to try to improve Canada's relationship with China. From Trudeau Sr. to Trudeau Jr., Jia Wang of the University of Alberta's China Institute and former ambassador Guy Saint-Jacques chart the highs and lows of bilateral relations and tensions; then Politico's Phelim Kine breaks down the Trump administration's reaction to Carney calling China a “more predictable partner” than the U.S. Also: François Legault is stepping down as premier of Quebec mere months ahead of a provincial election that polls suggest could be won by the separatist Parti Québécois.

This evening we investigate when it is permissible to schedule a non-urgent surgery on Friday, in spite of a general prohibition to do so. Rabbi Yosef Rimon gives practical and sensitive guidelines that are especially relevant here in Montreal, and in many other places. Through this rather technical discussion, Rabbi Rimon is clearly attuned to protecting both physical and emotional well-being. We survey the disappointing response of the Jewish People to Moshe's noble and grand statements of God's promises, and we derive what all of us need, to be able to dream and look toward a future we are seeking. I share part of an article in last week's Montreal Gazette on the ravages among young people (and not so young people) of e-device overuse and even addiction. Finally we offer two different layers of meaning to God granting us the Land of Israel as in inheritance, as opposed to any other legal transfer of ownership. Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation. We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.

U.S. President Donald Trump visited a Ford factory in Dearborn, Michigan on Tuesday, and dismissed the relevance of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, saying the U.S. doesn’t need the trade deal and that “Canada would love it.” A new Leger poll says nearly one in three Canadians are afraid that the U.S will invade Canada. As per an Op-Ed in the Toronto Star, are the Canadians that continue to move their start-up companies to the U.S., or go to school in the U.S., or vacation in the U.S. bordering on treason? As Mark Carney lands in China, state media in that country is urging Canada to break free from “U.S. influence.” Mario Roy is adamant: He is running for the Quebec Liberal Party leadership

Trump and Prime Minister Mark Carney held a 45-minute private meeting along with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum following the draw. In a time where the province is seeing a lot of red in its finances, Premier François Legault presented his economic vision a month ago to reporters. One problem, it cost him $55 thousand to do it. That includes a nearly 15 hundred dollar Quebec Flag.

Quebec will cut the subsidy of religious schools who select children according to their faith. Moreover, the wearing of religious symbols will also be prohibited for future teachers and employees of private schools.
