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.

Israeli ambassador rejects PM Carney's criticism of aid delivery in Gaza
OTTAWA – Israel's ambassador in Ottawa has issued a statement rejecting Canada's 'condemnation' of humanitarian aid delivery in Gaza. The statement from Ambassador Iddo Moed urges Canada to keep up pressure on Hamas to release hostages and support a comprehensive framework to end the war. It comes after Prime Minister Mark Carney on Thursday accused the Israeli government of failing to prevent a humanitarian crisis in Gaza and of violating international law by denying aid. In a post on X, Carney said Israel's control of aid distribution must be replaced by 'comprehensive provision' of humanitarian assistance led by international organizations. Moed insists in his statement that Israel is committed to upholding international law and is serving as an 'active partner' in facilitating the flow of aid into Gaza. Canada is among more than two dozen countries, along with the United Kingdom, Japan and Australia, that issued a joint statement earlier this week calling for an immediate end to the conflict in Gaza. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 25, 2025.

NDP's rules for leadership race include requirements for youth, regional support
The NDP released the official rules for its leadership race on Friday, which include requirements that candidates gather specific numbers of signatures from supporters across regional, racial and 2SLGBTQ+ groups. At least 10 per cent of a candidate's signatures must come from New Democrats aged 25 years or under. Candidates must also collect at least 50 signatures from five different regions in Canada — the North, the Atlantic provinces, Quebec, Ontario and the Prairies and B.C. A new permanent leader to replace Jagmeet Singh will be chosen through a ranked ballot, allowing party members to list candidates in order of preference. The party announced earlier this month that candidates will be required to pay a $100,000 entry fee.
