Friday Focus: Judicial reforms in Mexico and Putin changes his nuclear doctrine
Friday Focus: Judicial reforms in Mexico and Putin changes his nuclear doctrine
On this week’s Friday Focus, Rudyard and Janice start off the show talking about the significant judicial reforms underway in Mexico, and why they will affect Canada and our important trade agreements. On the second half of the show, they turn to Canadian politics where the NDP, under the leadership of Jagmeet Singh, have ended their supply agreement with the Liberal government which had been keeping Justin Trudeau’s party in power. Is this move setting us up for a federal election? In Ukraine, a reorganization of Zelensky’s cabinet has caught Westerners off guard and is raising eyebrows about the timing of this shuffle. Rudyard and Janice round out the show by discussing Putin’s decision to change his nuclear doctrine. Will this increase the scope of the country’s nuclear deterrence, thereby increasing the risk that these dangerous weapons will be used?
