Can the G7 find order in the chaos?
Front Burner 25:42 Can the G7 find order in the chaos?
Starting Sunday, political and economic representatives of a world order that Donald Trump is intent on shattering are gathering in Kananaskis, in Alberta's Rocky Mountains.
That on its own would be high stakes. But add to it Mark Carney's aggressive national to-do list, and you've got two days that could show us how much Canada and the world have changed since Trump became president a second time.
Aaron Wherry, a senior writer with CBC's Parliamentary Bureau, joins the show to unpack what he'll be watching for as he covers the event.

Carney condemns Israel for failing to prevent humanitarian crisis in Gaza
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney is condemning Israel for failing to prevent the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, in the latest sign of rising international alarm over the starvation and deaths of civilians in the besieged Palestinian territory. In a statement posted Thursday night on social media, Carney said Israel must stop controlling aid distribution to allow desperately needed supplies into the enclave that Israel first occupied almost sixty years ago. He alleged that the Israeli government has failed 'to prevent the rapidly deteriorating humanitarian disaster' in the territory, where provisions — including some that has been funded by Canada — have been blocked from reaching 'starving civilians' in Gaza.

Canada condemns Israel over humanitarian crisis in Gaza
OTTAWA – Prime Minister Mark Carney is accusing the Israeli government of failing to prevent a rapidly deteriorating humanitarian crisis in Gaza and of violating international law by denying aid. Carney said in a social media post Thursday evening that Israel's control of aid distribution must be replaced by 'comprehensive provision' of humanitarian assistance led by international organizations. He says Canada is calling on all sides to negotiate an immediate ceasefire and repeating its calls for Hamas to release all hostages and for Israel to respect the territorial integrity of the West Bank and Gaza. Israel's parliament on Wednesday approved a symbolic motion to annex the West Bank. Carney says Canada supports a two-state solution, with Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand set to attend a UN conference next week in New York on the issue. His comments came on the same day French President Emmanuel Macron announced his country would recognize Palestine as a state. — with files from The Associated Press This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 24, 2025.
