Thank you very much for joining us. >> Well, some sobering numbers when it comes to food insecurity in canada in its annual poverty report. Cards, food banks. Canada warns that we have reached a critical point as poverty and food insecurity worsen in every corner of the country. Canada received an overall grade of d minus a decline from the d last year, only to provinces nova scotia and prince edward island actually managed to improve their rating. The rest of the country stagnant. Got worse. >> Putting together housing plan, looking at yours, social assistance or benefits rates, making sure their indexed to inflation so that people are falling further and further behind into poverty. And then what we're suggesting for provinces that don't and put together a coordinated poverty reduction plan with with target so that you can hold your government to account and citizens can see that your government is taking action. >> Digging deeper into the numbers, the report found that more than 44% of people are feeling worse off when compared to last year. The percentage of people paying more than 30% of their income on housing hit 43.6% in 2024. And the food banks. Canada report was brought up today in question period by conservative leader pierre poilievre, who used it to slam the prime minister's policies, including the carbon tax. All this spending were working. >> Then why is it that food banks, canada reports today that 25% of young adults had to go to a food bank in 3 months alone and 2 million canadians are lined up every month. Mister speaker with so many empty stomachs, isn't it just a little bit wacko be racing carbon taxes on farmers we will keep going on delivering support for canadians. And we will keep going on putting more money in the pockets of 8 out of 10 canadians with our price on pollution that supports canadian families and successfully fights climate change. >> The prime minister also slammed the conservatives on policy, saying that they vote against measures meant to help canadians. Norway, spain and ireland have announced their intention to formally recognize a palestinian state, a declaration that would take effect on tuesday. >> I've spoken with a number of of the heaters and counterparts. I'm confident that for other countries will join us and taking this important step in the coming weeks. >> The country's leaders say they hope the move brings new momentum toward a two-state solution, adding it's not a decision against israel or one in favour of hamas, but instead it is in support of peace. And here at home, it's a move. Ndp leader jagmeet singh says he'd like to see canada take as well. We absolutely believe that we need to recognize palestine as a state to move forward. The two-state solution to move ultimately for for a peaceful solution we maintain our position. We have a private member's motion on this, a prime member's bill on this by heather macpherson. What are my foreign affairs critic? This is the new democrat position, but most importantly. Canada should take this position. Justin trudeau should take this position. Other countries have already made it clear that that is one of the ways forward to bringing the two-state solution back to the forefront. And we believe it is a fundamental step towards peace. Not surprisingly, israel is angry with the move, calling the decision distorted. Israel has recalled its ambassadors to the country's and someone

their envoys to brussels. Joining us now is chevy professor of middle east politics at georgetown university. Professor, thank you for joining us. Thanks for the mitt. So norway, ireland and spain joining the growing list of countries that support the idea of a palestinian state. Your thoughts on this does this? What does this mean? >> Well, and beverage reminded the 1970's in 1980's it was a global struggle against apartheid in south africa at the time. Western countries because of cold war considerations were very reluctant pressure south africa to change >> Grace policies toward its majority black population. But gradually that you started to shift. It started with scandinavian countries. We started to lead the way and then slowly but surely other countries followed in large part because of internal pressure from their own populations, pressuring their elected officials saying that what the status quo here is untenable. We should not be complicit in this situation. So most of the world that you pointed out, the global south 140 countries effectively recognizes palestine within its international borders, western europe and north america have not. But now we're starting to see that consensus in western europe start to break with with it, with the news today that ireland, norway and spain are going to officially recognises to in the state of palestine. And I suspect. >> In the coming years for the reasons that I just mentioned in for reasons very similar to the struggle against apartheid in south africa, in the 70's and 80's, we're going to see if other countries follow suit. >> Will this work that will this is there any pressure on israel to listen to this? >> Well, I think this is largely symbolic. Let's be clear that you know what, the announcement today is not going to save one life in gaza, but it is going to send a message to israel and its supporters that there are for its repressive policies against the palestinians, that countries are going to start to break with. Israel be much more critical of israel's policies toward the palestinians. And the, you know, impunity that israel's enjoyed for a very long time is no longer good to pass and so you know, I think it's going to take a long there's going to be people who are going to say no, this within israel. And within the, you know, global support community of israeli supporters, there's going to be pushed back. This could be an internal debate, but it's the start of something. It's sending the signal that, you know, israel cannot have its security guaranteed at the expense of the security of the palestinian population that occupies. So that's how I see this sort of playing out since the start of a big process. What kind of message does this send them to a palestinian for a democracy there. Is there any hope of a true democracy being set up there? >> With a wood with the palestinian authority be willing tell hamas of they can't be part of this. Is there any realistic expectation palestine will be able to go along with this? >> Well, obviously the palestinian authority and palestinian officials are going to welcome this. The question of whether palestine will be a democracy is going to be an internal struggle among to develop responsible representative government. And like all countries that have travelled down the path of democracy. This is going to be an uphill battle is going to games and the first thing you need before you can have a democracy. New state. So I think the fact that, you know, we we're seeing these at these countries in western europe, better democratic rising to the occasion and supporting palestine helps those democratic forces within the palestinian community. So i, you know, so let let I mean, the question democracy is, it is, you know, we have to remember the don't emerge overnight. Those are internal struggles that even when you have a democracy, there could be rolled back as we're seeing right now, united states where I'm speaking to you from, because palestine is a country that is still occupied by israel. Before you can talk about the nature of the government, you're going to have you have to have a territory that you can claim sovereignty over and then begin a very important struggle of trying to create a democratic institution. Ok professor, thank you as always for your analysis. Much appreciated. Professor nader hashemi is a professor of middle east politics at georgetown university. >> A warning viewers might find the images in this next story. Disturbing the families of israeli soldiers taken hostage by hamas on october 7th released graphic new footage of their kidnapping. Now this image from the video shows a hamas militant holding one woman captive in tying up her hands while another visibly injured woman he's held against the wall. The hostages families

forum says they obtained the video from the idf and that it was originally released by hamas. The group continues to put pressure on the israeli government to secure the release of the hostages. People, including a 15 year-old boy are dead after they were stabbed in a fight in montreal. >> With so looking for. All in all the food that we in the fight to know exactly what's happening yesterday with still looking videos. And terry, to some people and do it in the room to check out the fi out some of the deal with some information about it. >> Montreal police received numerous 9-1-1 calls last night about a brawl involving 15 people in the plateau. Mont-royal borough. When they arrived, they found 3 victims. 15, 23 25 all had been injured by a sharp object and later died. Police say the incident was not related to games or organized crime. 3 suspects have been identified, but no arrests so far. It has now been 2 months since the province of alberta began investigating a company that placed patients who are waiting for assisted living in motels. Now internal emails have been shared by the opposition that reveal that 2 government ministers received a complaint about contentment, social services months earlier, ctv's chelan, skulski has the story. And just be my brother-in-law and has to be some some other people. >> Must be receiving horrible care from them. Pamela cunningham to scratch the treatment her brother-in-law bill received for nearly 2 years from contend and social services or css. It was a long weekend and they must have forgotten all about him. Of course, he had no cell phone, no way to get out. Bill was referred to css from a social worker at the misericordia hospital in 2022 by early 2023, his family started raising concerns to hs about the quality of service is he was receiving, but got no answers. This in action from the people responsible for albertans care is utterly unacceptable. The alberta ndp say internal emails between officials in the ministry of health and social services proves the province knew about concerns into the company in january. In documents obtained through an ndp freedom of information request. An official with the social services ministry describes the complaint is basic and medical needs not being met by contentment social services to resolve the issue. In a supervisor said the complaint was beyond her scope and shared information for resources such as 2, 1, 1, 8, 1, 1, and voice of albertans with disabilities. The ndp say the province's failure to act resulted in 25 people being housed in motels in march. Jason nixon and adriana lagrange knew that there were issues with contempt and social service says at least 2 months prior. >> And they did nothing. My department contacted the made sure that everything on the medical home care was appropriate. My understanding was that, yes, it was appropriate. Alberta's health minister insists the complaint was handled appropriately. Well, the minister of seniors community and social services says any allegation that the province new patients were being held in motels is outrageous and not factual. Very bizarre decision, not constitutional government to approve those people, take them to multiple different hotels. >> In our care for alberta's health minister says the company is not being recommended to patients at alberta hospitals. As for investigations and a review of discharge policies is underway. Ctv news did email and call content and social services. The number was no longer in service.

The iconic 1998 album snagged the top spot from a list of great albums over the last 65 years. Lauryn hill's album be out of records by beyonce, the beatles, michael jackson and amy winehouse for the top spot. Joining me now is eric alper, our music commentator. Eric, thanks for always. Is that for joining us here. And are you ready? Go? >> Brady irate ago. What? It would be great. You so you say yes to it, that. Yeah, you know, look, it's really funny that apple music decide to do that because apple music really does have a personality. It's not rolling stone where we know the writers reap bongo that we know the editors, we know the cultural significance of a pitchfork magazine or rolling stone or an enemy in the U.K. print and apple music is a hardware store that sells everything and all kinds of music. >> So in looking at the list, it seems like they just clicked off pretty much all the boxes, any music fan. But like if you like, you know, rnb music in soul music by a woman who happened to be black. Amazing that number one, if you grew up in the 80's and you like michael jackson, perfect is number 2. If you're classic rock band and you grew up with the I'm hiding your action first, that they're the the number 3. All right. So what may well, let's bring up the top 10, but they won't talk a little bit. Lauren hill is what makes it so good. So these are the best albums. >> He sought lauryn hill thriller abbey, where there's only one purple reigns classic and blonde, I I'm look here that when the other ones here, songs in the key of life. That's sam showing my age here in recognizing mayor, what do you think of that? >> What do you think of that top 10 like are they all were the albums or the air albums. >> I think it's really, really good. I think the fact that, you know, that they've got little bit of rock, they got a little bit of r d r&b and hip-hop music about music is certainly the most of this into the most streamed genres of the last number of years. So it's no surprise that dot style of music dominates the chart. I'm surprised that there's no world music, there's no live album. There's no blues music, which has happened to be 3 of the worst. The sun too good music on that but you know, it's certainly up for debate, you know, for the rest of the list, but don't think anybody could argue that any number of those top 10 albums are certainly the best I've been ever recorded. Okay, so I do think learn history. Number one. Because you know, when you take a look at the music today of olivia rodrigo billie eilish. I'm megan thee stallion and nicki minaj trade to weaken. They all pay a huge debt to the music that in the group's about gordie howe album, she did something absolutely remarkable, which coming out of nowhere, even with the fuji 6 shots for former bad, nobody would really betting on how great guy. As you get that. >> Old school stuff out and >> Or to perfect record. All right. And no canadian artists in their you, we have some great canadian artist, but none. >> Yeah, I was just surprised that route. But again, like, you know, I think when you're talking about nostalgia and familiarity, you have to wonder whether indicted canadian music is as important culturally and historically as we would like to think, certainly, I was hoping that maybe a tragically hip album or the weekend's record, but beyond their. But these list are fun for debate. They're fun for discussion and you know, certainly cause a little bit about the nation to what we all know what this country that, you know, we have amazing art it that deserve to be on that list as well. All right, I know you have to go finish this debate over beer another time. Have a great day chairs. I said great. Thanks so much. Route eric alper is our music

commentator. And staying with music graceland. Elvis presley's home isn't going on the auction block after all. Thank goodness. >> A tennessee judge adjourned the sale this morning during a hearing, but only lasted a few minutes.
