Statistics Canada just dropped a report showing that as heat waves get worse and more frequent, more Canadians are relying on air conditioning to cope. But here’s the catch—some households still don’t have it, and the report digs into who’s left sweating and why. It’s a mix of income gaps, older housing, and regional differences.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about staying cool—it’s a snapshot of how inequality plays out in a warming world. If AC is becoming a lifeline during brutal summers, the folks without it are on the front lines of climate risk.

President Trump is considering additional sanctions against Russia but expressed frustration with Putin’s seemingly "nice" but ultimately hollow gestures amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. Meanwhile, in Nebraska, independent Dan Osborn—who nearly unseated a Republican senator last year—announced he’s running for the state’s other Senate seat in 2026, setting up a potential showdown with GOP incumbent Pete Ricketts.

Editor’s Note: Trump’s mixed messaging on Russia highlights the awkward balancing act of criticizing Putin while avoiding escalation—a tension that could shape U.S. foreign policy. Meanwhile, Osborn’s Senate bid signals growing momentum for independents in traditionally red states, which could shake up the political landscape. Both stories underscore the unpredictability of current American politics.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claims there’s a coordinated effort on social media to smear Israel’s reputation, leading to declining support among U.S. voters—particularly Democrats. During a speech on Capitol Hill, he framed this as "vilification and demonization" and pledged to push back against it.

Editor’s Note: Netanyahu’s remarks highlight the growing political divide over Israel in America, especially as younger, progressive Democrats increasingly criticize its policies. His focus on online narratives suggests Israel’s leadership sees misinformation (or differing perspectives) as a strategic threat—not just a PR problem. This could signal more aggressive lobbying or counter-messaging efforts ahead of the U.S. election.
