Fifty per cent U.S. tariffs on billions of dollars of Canadian goods have now taken effect and Prime Minister Mark Carney is vowing dollar-for-dollar retaliation after trade talks collapsed late Friday night. CBC's Peter Armstrong lays out what we know about the breakdown at the table. Then, two former federal cabinet ministers, Canada-U.S. advisory committee member Lisa Raitt and Carney's former chief of staff Marco Mendicino, discuss what another trade war escalation could mean for Canada's economy and the future of free trade. Plus, the Prairies are known as Canada's breadbasket. But could Canada boost its global agri-food exports to become the world's breadbasket? Guest host Leisha Grebinski travels to Coleville, Sask. to speak with lentil and grain farmer Dean Roberts about the technological, infrastructure and labour barriers he faces in getting more of his crops to global markets. Evan Shout — president and CEO of financial consulting firm Maverick Ag — explains how often he hears Roberts' concerns among other farmers he coaches and why Canada's agriculture industry needs a bigger seat at the federal decision-making table. Then, Evan Fraser, executive director of the Arrell Food Institute at the University of Guelph and Jennifer Clapp, a professor and Canada Research Chair in the School of Environment, Resources and Sustainability at the University of Waterloo, discuss whether boosting exports is the right goal for Canada, or if it should focus on food security at home.This episode features the voices of:Lisa Raitt, former Conservative cabinet minister and member of the Advisory Committee on Canada–U.S. Economic RelationsMarco Mendicino, former chief of staff to Prime Minister Mark Carney and senior counsel at CasselsDean Roberts, owner of Oakdale Farms and chair of SaskOilseedsEvan Shout, president and CEO of Maverick AgEvan Fraser, executive director of the Arrell Food Institute at the University of GuelphJennifer Clapp, professor and Canada Research Chair in the School of Environment, Resources and Sustainability at the University of Waterloo

Der clevere Peter Armstrong, Chefreporter des Londoner Daily Globes, ist ein Held der Swinging Sixties. Er löst seine Fälle mit Witz und viel Glück. Peter Armstrong, gespielt von Chris Howland, mag Whisky, Flanellanzüge und dunkelhaarige Frauen. Diesmal bekommt er es mit dem geheimnisvollen Antiquitätenhändler Max Manning zu tun, mit dessen Haushälterin etwas nicht stimmt. Die Spur führt schließlich in die Schweiz. Eine Krimi-Comedyserie des Saarländischen Rundfunks von 1970. Doch Pastewka spürt in diesem Stück von Rolf Biebricher noch deutlich die Krimi-Epoche der 60er Jahre, als die Schnurrbärte noch in Whisky getaucht wurden und London ein Tummelplatz für elegante Ermittler und handfeste Gangster war.
