canada's prime ministerjustin trudeau announces his resignation amid mounting clinical pressure and economic troubles. us steel fight back, the company sue the biden administration for blocking the megamerger. welcome to business today with me. we begin with our top story can after nearly a decade as prime minister, canada'sjustin prime minister, canada's justin trudeau prime minister, canada'sjustin trudeau has announced that his resigning. he's been facing mounting clinical pressure after the surprise resignation of ally and finance minister. general elections will be held in late october if not earlier after which he will step down once a new party leader is

elected. justin trudeau's departure about the country's economic direction in 2025. the asia—pacific foundation of canada explains how the uncertainty will impact the country's trade relations in business sentiment. in the nine years that trudeau was in power, he was focused on growing canada's trading relationships and diversifying our trade because majority of canada's trades, 76%, is dealt with the united states. but of course, we have signed a number of treaty agreements in the last ten years focusing on asia so there is cptpp, the comprehensive and progressive of trans—pacific partnership agreement which allows us to do trade with ten other economies in asia, there is also a trade agreement with indonesia, negotiating one in as the answer in general,

there has been a focus on rules on diversifying the trading relationships but of course, the us still remains our dominant trading partner. you mentioned about canada's efforts onjustin trudeau to justify the trade partners, was the outlook for asia given the turmoil thatjustin trudeau has put canada into? i think there will be focused from canadian businesses and provinces to continue to engage with our asian partner so we do quite a bit of trade with china, there are some economic securities concerns with respect to the relationship but a lot of enthusiasm and excitement for deepening trade with as yarn, deepening trade with indonesia as well as south korea and japan so it will continue to be essential to our economic engagement with the indo—pacific as well as these new agreements that have just been signed with indonesia last december and with as young by the end of this year so there will be focused but there will be a question about bandwidth and how much the government will have space to deal with other regions while having to really be close attention to what's happening south of the border with the us. both with these tariffs and then with renegotiating the north american trade agreement big due to the negotiating next year.

investment in the united states and the presidents and several other named officials in the us government, to federal court, asserting that that decision was in violation of legal principles and they raised a number of interesting arguments therein. the first argument that they raised, it falls under the due process law which says that no property or liberty can be taken from someone without having due process, the right to be heard. and in this instance, the parties have alleged that given president biden�*s outward public decision or statement in april of earlier in 2024 when he said that he would block the deal, he would block nippon steel's acquisition of us steel, that was a predetermined outcome and the filing and process that occurred subsequent to that statement and medication proposals they were also asserted by the party subsequent to that statement, that in essence, the decision

was already made and the proof is in the putting so they made a number of arguments that the basis that due process were violated, there was incredible evidence that the presidents relied upon before making this decision and several arguments that i'm happy to summarise for you. iii that i'm happy to summarise for ou. , ., u, that i'm happy to summarise for ou. , ., _, ., that i'm happy to summarise for ou. ., ., ., you. if you could move forward on bidon's _ you. if you could move forward on bidon's position, _ you. if you could move forward on bidon's position, whether. you. if you could move forward | on bidon's position, whether he won't be in the white house much longer and with president—elect donald trump set to the takeoff office, what his position and how do you think that will change things? it will be known that incoming president trump came out against the deal and came out against the deal and came out against us steel from being owned by the forward entity, the japanese acquired incidentally no japanese transaction has been blocked before until this just like no japanese transaction acquire was subject to a divestment which sometimes can occur after the transaction is completed

without receiving that —— receiving the appropriate approvals. it's fair to say that there will be a general level of continuity in the overall risk calculus that this incoming administration will take and the weather analyse proposed forwarding acquisitions, that said, the party right now only really concerned with the order at play. they are looking at the current order that was set forth by president biden and they are doing whatever they can to unwind that order. australia is in their current home cricket test series with india to boost tourism. tourism agency has launched social media and tv advertising targeting indian travellers, stone cricketers pat cummins and david warner. the agency says india is among the fastest growing inbound markets. from sydney, phil mercer has more. cricket is part of the globe that binds india with australia. it's an obsession shared by both countries. in
