1. Trudeau: Canadians don’t want PM to ‘lecture another country’
“The neighbouring leaders, polar opposites in nearly every way, took up the thorny subjects of trade and immigration, with Trudeau eager to build a relationship with the new U.S. president.
“Throughout the day, Trudeau and Trump appeared to have quickly established a fairly business-like rapport after a morning of bilateral meetings, and gestures on the Canadian side that seemed to please Trump.”
Trump words confirm, or close, that his rants about NAFTA are rants about Mexico. Canada not out of the woods, but will be lots of relief.

2. This Mar-A-Lago member had a great time photographing Trump handling a national security crisis
“While President Trump handled a national security crisis right in front of dozens of patrons at his Mar-a-Lago hotel in Florida on Saturday, one resort member posted a flurry of photos to Facebook showing Trump reviewing sensitive documents, conferring with top aides, and talking on the phone.
“The images also raised questions about the level of access Mar-a-Lago members have to the Trump administration — seemingly a blend of government and personal business for the president.”
3. The New York Times claws its way into the future
“The Times has had more success at building its digital subscriber base than any other publication. Its nearly $500 million in digital revenue not only dwarfs what any print publication has managed online, it also far exceeds leading digital-only publishers.”
