Descripción

The US administration is hitting its neighbour Canada with a 50% tariff on imports. Products include wine, cement and even hockey sticks. We speak to Canadian businesses about how they are preparing for the latest round of tariffs. Also, President Trump has promised to help Lebanon "a lot" during a landmark meeting with his Lebanese counterpart in Washington. We hear from a food importer about what it is like doing business in the country. Elsewhere, we check in with a football fan from Curaçao to find out how much a trip to the World Cup cost him. And weight-loss drugs are a multi-billion-dollar industry. We explore why its two biggest players are heading to court.
