Free For All Friday - Hour 1

Amanda Galbraith breaks down the biggest stories of the day with Canada's top newsmakers.

On today's show:

• Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is preparing to submit a proposal for a heavy-oil pipeline, which would stretch into British Columbia's northern coast. However, no private company at this time is willing to join the party. We describe the sticky situation to former B.C. Premier Christy Clark.
• Prime Minister Carney will be travelling to Washington on Monday, then meeting with U.S. President Trump on Tuesday. We outline what's at stake with CTV News political commentator Scott Reid.
• Marineland's proposed agreement to sell 30 Beluga Whales to a Chinese aquarium has been squashed by the feds. So what happens to them now? We pick the brain of Phil Demers, a former Marineland trainer who spent 12 years with the company.
