    Will The Iran War Ever Be Over?

    Mondays with Dr. Janice Stein are always a learning experience, and it sure has been since the end of February, with the war in Iran. And in spite of alleged "peace deals," we're still wondering if the conflict will ever end. It's complicated and that's why Dr. Stein is with us again this week. Also, because it's her last episode before the summer break, we'll touch on what to expect over the holidays.

    Good Talk: Canada Wins - Canada Wins!

    Sometimes sport can be such a nice distraction. Like last night. Canada's first-ever win in World Cup Soccer. Nice distraction for the PM, who was in attendance, after what some felt was a bended-knee performance for Donald Trump at the G7 in France. What was that all about? Chantal and Bruce are here.

    The US-Iran Deal - What Was Really Accomplished?

    A deal is a deal, but what kind of deal was this? Did Donald Trump accomplish anything in his nearly four-month war with Iran? Dr. Janice Stein is here for her regular Monday conversation. Also, a political resignation in Britain is considered a warning not just for that country but for all NATO countries -- it's time to prepare for a confrontation with Russia.

    Good Talk -  Let's Call It The G6, Forget About Trump

    Lots of good talk on Good Talk this week, starting with Chantal and Bruce on Mark Carney's trip to Paris today and his talks with Emmanuel Macron. France is hosting the G7 next week, but for many, it's really a G6 with Donald Trump's America, no friend of the group. That and CUSMA and social media bans top the discussion agenda today.

    Your Turn - How Do You Feel About The World Cup?

    I wasn't sure when we asked this question just how many respondents we'd get. The World Cup of Soccer (Football) is being played in Canada, Mexico and the U.S. this month. It starts tonight. The question was basically, how do you feel about the World Cup. Well, we got answers, lots of them. And FIFA won't be happy!
