Big fires still burning in Los Angeles, Danielle Smith goes to Mar-a-Lago, Gaza ceasefire talks and more
Description
Three big fires are burning in Los Angeles, and several smaller ones as well. At least two dozen people have died. And though some evacuation orders have been lifted, officials are warning people to return yet. Many areas are still unsafe.
And: Alberta premier Danielle Smith says Canadians should be prepared for tariffs imposed by the U.S. She went to Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida and met the incoming president. And Smith says she expects him to make good on his threats. Canadian leaders are preparing lists of retaliatory measures.
Also: “Closer than ever.” Reports suggest a ceasefire agreement in Gaza could be signed before Trump takes office next week. Trump has threatened “all hell will break loose” if there is no deal by then. His vice-president J.D. Vance says that means enabling Israel to knock out the rest of Hamas.
Plus: The future of pharmacare and federal dental care, the worst year for insured losses for weather events, the price of mail goes up, and more.
