If it’s four more years of Donald Trump, then the preppers and survivalists may be on to something. Whatever and whenever the results, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is T right to say that Canada needs to be “ready for all outcomes”. Canada’s relationship with the U.S. is the consequential one. NORAD safeguards our security, although whoever forms the next administration is going to press us to invest in a new North Warning System and to increase our defence spending to the NATO target of two per cent of GDP (we currently spend 1.3 per cent). The new Canada-U.S.-Mexico trade agreement (CUSMA) guarantees access to what is still the biggest market in the world and the preferred entry point for fledgling Canadian exporters. Our shared environment is managed through a web of agreements dating back to the Boundary Waters Treaty and the International Joint Commission (1909).

  • Summer 2020 Lineup
    NEW RELEASES SUMMER 2020 Coronavirus Pandemic FRONTLINE is working tirelessly to bring you the facts, perspectives and stories that explain this unprecedented time with five special programs. With the world reeling from the coronavirus outbreak, FRONTLINE presents a special report from Seattle—the first U.S. city struck by the virus and a bellwether for what was to hit the rest of the country. Veteran science reporter and FRONTLINE correspondent Miles O’Brien tells the inside story of Seattle’s fight to identify and contain the novel coronavirus, traveling through the locked-down city—from the hospital where patient one was treated to the nursing home where the outbreak exploded. In almost real time, doctors, patients and public health officials recount the dramatic story of how the unusually well-prepared city hoped that it had averted a crisis, then confronted the grim reality of the fast-spreading virus. The film shows how the federal government’s missteps early on impacted cities like Seattle, and highlights the contrast between the two Washingtons—between the Trump administration’s messaging in Washington, D.C., and the increasingly dire situation on the ground in Washington State. As the pandemic continues to take its toll, O’Brien has remained in Seattle to document the ongoing fight and its significance as a cautionary tale for the rest of the country. 1x60 Play Program Produced by Miles O’Brien for FRONTLINE. 2 COVID’s Hidden Toll FRONTLINE investigates how the COVID crisis has hit vulnerable immigrants and undocumented workers. The film features stories from the pandemic’s invisible victims, including crucial farm and meat-packing workers who lack protections and have been getting sick.
