now the the way that the supply chains are set up moves things quite smoothly so they think if they have an operation south of the border that that can somehow move around the fact of having to cross the border each and every day to the stack that we have our export development canada it's a crown corporation meaning it's owned by the canadian government and they talk to over a thousand companies surveyed there's a quarter of these companies so actually twenty six percent out of a thousand surveyed back in oct say they indicate they are moving or considering moving part of the upper of their operation inside the u.s. border in response to the elevated uncertainty regarding trade with the u.s. or u.s. trade policy again this is what you were just talking about very unsure what it's going to be trumps next move now twenty three of these percent of these companies are saying that nafta talks just the talks alone are hitting their canadian operations now we know that this is all supposed to modernize what's going on the new modern version of nafta that's what canada hoped for but we're not really
9:01 am
seeing it move in any direction but here's what canadian business is really rely on we have a graph for you and this is what it really comes down to it comes down to the american people what the american people want to do research center the poll done back in april we're seeing that more and more people in the states are in favor of free trade and canadian businesses view that as a good thing hopefully with that will affect the talks these nafta talks within the next couple of months well if nafta does fall apart i mean are there any other options for canadian companies or when they just have to move to the u.s. . what very much what we just heard what was happening with mexico and diversification canada has a free trade trade deal sida with the european union and these businesses are looking at europe as one of the biggest markets out there also we have to coast like the u.s. does the pacific the atlantic and when we look on the other side there's china china is a huge market potential for canada so canada is looking in that way as well twenty three percent of these companies that were surveyed are saying they are ready to
9:02 am
diversify that's a direction that they're looking in as they see tensions rise during these nafta negotiations another approach though is wait and see a lot of companies believe that you know what yeah the goshi actions of might have gone south right now but things might get better so wait and see i guess i guess that's where the moral of the story here lots of uncertainty and we must wait and see our two correspondent alex the hell of that thanks so much. thank you. time now for a quick break but stick around because when we were turned the reaction to the f.c.c. is net neutrality whirling was swift and largely negative r.t. correspondent ashley banks will tell us how the internet responded and we'll hear from daphne this. university and what the future holds for big data as we go to break through the numbers of the closing bell.

like when you all know it's coming to inspect the top if somebody would have been told me to come to spend my life to plan communities and i'll talk to story corps some of them sold through was clearly some. every night all we were protected by the arabs we will attacking them and we will extremely short. of saying that's not possible oh make those movements such sentiments and then the soldiers myself from the. host with all the prisoner we've all dealt with over will do. believe much sick and close citizens in the oncoming. troops like him i think. that there is no room to be able to live together without. our.

passed by the obama administration which were aimed at ensuring all the internet content consumers want to access whether that streaming video audio or other material be treated equally by internet providers. preventing internet providers from discriminating against content but decision to put an end to obama's net neutrality rules upset many and clued in companies like google and facebook over the fact telecom and cable companies that own news site san streaming internet service as well given benefit to their own subsidize areas and that flex weighed in saying quote this is the beginning of a longer legal battle netflix stands with innovators at large and small to oppose this misguided the f.c.c. order twitter said quote we will continue our fight to defend the open internet and reverse this misguided decision representative andre carson said quote if you
9:07 am
agree that the internet was meant to be open and free for everyone not sold off to the highest better another twitter user said net neutrality is gone this is my last tweet as a free person rest in peace entering that although many are upset over this new move which would allow internet providers to charge consumers a more money into access sites like facebook and twitter some legal experts believe there is a good chance the f.c.c. rules barring states for making their own net neutrality rules will not hold up in court as a right now several legislators and congress say they will support a measure to overturn the f.c.c. as overturning of the twenty fifteen net neutrality rules. r t actually artie's ashley banks thank you so much for that. advanced technology has proven to have a very meaningful role in almost every aspect of daily life as

a result the job market for data science is growing at an exponential rate to talk more about that part sat down with daphne kists c.e.o. of world kwan university mark first asked her how many jobs are out there in big data and what the future holds for it here's what she had to say yeah so you're absolutely right we're increasingly a data rich society and cross industries it is in demand but there is a talent shortage that goes with the demand for that rich data according to i.b.m. in by twenty twenty there will be a growing a twenty eight percent increase between now and twenty twenty and the demand for for data scientists and the skills that those people need are different than those that we've seen in the past and people need in order to be capable to use that data in meaningful ways to help make better decisions need to study statistics python
9:09 am
machine learning those are all twenty first century skills that will be we can have the data you know i like to say. you know the internet of things everyone talks about the internet of things what is the internet of things it's data ultimately so we can have a student in nigeria some company can go and lay you know all sorts of sensors on an ag large agricultural field at the end of the day that's data and we need people who are skilled and equipped and educated to take that data and bring it together and help make develop knowledge and apply those skills analytically to make better decisions sort of the and that's our translators and interpreters if you will the data speak a little bit more. about you know these these jobs what's the average pay for florida for an american the average american is fifty eight thousand and change i
9:10 am
think it's fifty eight thousand three hundred dollars a year so how do the jobs in analytics compare to that we're right so according to glassdoor the average salary in the united states of course for data analyst is about one hundred twenty thousand dollars. the degree that we offer has a variety of skills that people can learn and were writing of industries the most obvious one of course is in finance and for trading for financial management etc but we're finding among our students there's enormous interest people in government who are involved in developing countries work and are interested in contributing to developing economic policies in their countries and to influencing banks and banking systems and modernizing and maturing those so it's a real cross-section of skills and financial engineers are also involved in general financial management i mean i i like to think in the next five years that that's
9:11 am
the kind of someone who wants to run the financing of a business is going to need to know financial engineering more so then perhaps then having a business degree knowing how to analyze data complex data dynamic data is going to become increasingly critical to success right and you know you are so right when you mention government of course my years perk up after thirty years be in there even when i was a financial regulator regulator and for those of you who think what i'm going to say is still the case it's not that my old agency the committee futures trading commission is doing a great job but back in the day you know. you know i don't even eight years ago. even amidst all of this computerized trading the algorithmic to. rating that's going on in the markets the guy in charge of you know your computer stuff was the go make sure you had you know the most recent version of word on your computer so you do need these analytics jobs not just to financial regulators but all
9:12 am
throughout the government you know whether or not in healing with a cyber security there's a whole other not as dealing with terrorism threat successor there's all sorts of areas in the government so i agree with you a hundred percent super here these are good jobs and you're doing a good job but one thing that you mentioned i want to get into just a little bit deeper let's talk of more about this key component of world point university and that's about the opportunities and access to how you're helping people you know just not just in the u.s. and in europe but in some of these are merging and developing nations around the world you meant you mentioned subsaharan africa let's talk about that a little bit more i mean do they even have computers where they can access this and are they doing it now what's the future hold well i think for sure i mean fifty percent in excess of fifty percent of our students are actually in sub-saharan africa we have students in nigeria and kenya and ghana in ethiopia in south africa
9:13 am
. certainly people need to have some requisite skills it is a master's program and people who come with. calculus or. statistics maybe linear algebra with those skills certainly are particularly well equipped as well as people who might have some experience in programming but these are all skills that are taught at universities throughout the world they aren't necessarily event translated are there isn't the opportunity to take those set of body of skills and turn them into a more advanced application that then has a career trajectory that goes with it so we think there's a huge opportunity there is no reason i mean twenty first century growth the majority of it is certainly going to happen in. africa there's an educated population that needs these skills in order to sort of you know take control basically of their financial and economic futures and they have the opportunity to
9:14 am
in some ways yes they have computers but it's one of those where you have the opportunity to sort of leapfrog you know mehlis you probably know as well as i do mobile penetration is very high in africa and so we're trying building and reiterating over and over again on our technology to make it mobile friendly make it easy for people to learn the materials they need to on the go or wherever they happen to be so. it is what's going to be happening and it's how people are going to do their learning and it's how they're going to deliver their product so we're very driven by that and by the technological opportunities that make this all possible i just have this image definitely of folks in sub-saharan africa you know doing these really complex analytics courses on their phone and you know quite frankly it's a pretty neat thing thinking of yet about it you know how do students and potential
9:15 am
students or anybody disinterested is about to know more about world point university when the classes start how do they find out more information about it. so we have several cohorts starting each year we're trying to be very flexible and adaptive we know people have careers already existing careers it is a big commitment but we are eager to hear from qualified students anywhere in the world and the best way to find out about it is to go to our website which is w.q. you dot org and or world kwan university dot org either one will work and there is a whole process there and a way to gather the materials that you need to in order to submit a successful application and in a short period of time be engaged with the program definitely thank you thank you so much thank you to ski also for his full on european and efforts on this death because c.e.o. of world point university thanks for what you're doing for the world and for the

remember the from the us a little bit on the one that was in the beginning because you. focused mostly on. the so. i thought that the ample. force to quit profile for people who are happy to pay the maximum in the extortion racket that the drug and insurance companies got the government to impose an unconstitutional tax called the bomb of care is that they are bought in to america's various foreign policies of raped and pillaged for a few bucks that's the foreign policy or to pharmaceutical companies create an opiate crisis domestically you don't hear anyone questioning that unless n.b.c. or c. and b. c. or any of the mainstream media outlets they all buy into it they get paid a lot of money they'll pay the stipend to the health extortionist and the obamacare folks as long as they push the line that they're still in the. non ghostlike

we are still not always the freezone and tensions are increasing the israeli army are throwing tear gas bombs as you can see actually raids of tear gas box they're also telling lies but it's the. gods you can see. sponsor fanning the flames people are running that was the angle it says he was taking the danger was that was. the sense the lining there were lots of protests and demonstrations all over gaza strip there was a million mark of the palestinian factions and palestinian leaders come out their supporters and the palestinian citizens to come to the confrontation to the convent with the israelis against expressed anger i guess startled trips decision. pro

palestinian demonstrations are being held across the middle east in jordan crowds protested outside the u.s. and. after friday prayers while in beirut in lebanon hundreds gathered outside the u.n. building waving palestinian flags but the scandal over trump's move on jerusalem has left one cain muslim country in a tricky position that explains the power landscape in the middle east has seen saudi arabia and israel gravitate towards each other over a mutual dislike of your and it's very clear we israel and saudi arabia are practically on the same side all sunni countries are against iran and will both countries and i having any official diplomatic channels whispers are growing behind the scenes about the extent of their cooperation last month an israeli military chief of staff was quoted as saying he was on the exact same page with the saudis when it concerns you or am i was sitting there listening to the remarks of a saudi general feeling like it could have been me saying the exact same thing it
9:25 am
was like he was reading my own overview of the situation so a definite psychic bond building there that was until trump threw a wrench in the works by recognizing jerusalem as israel's capital therefore i have determined. that it is time to officially recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel saudi arabia joined to the muslim world's chorus of condemnation saying east jerusalem should be recognized as the palestinian capital a thought backed by its arch rivals in tehran we condemn the u.s. decision on jerusalem because of its great bias against the historical and permanent rights of the. jerusalem bar yet as i have made it all every possible step must be taken sick prevent the implementation of this illegal action by the us administration however there is one question that sticks out here which what's factors and never once made it possible for the u.s. president's trip there to take such an outrageous i was saudi arabia got cozy with
9:26 am
israel and balanced ties with regional muslim allies turkey jumped in with present and won gathering muslim nations and istanbul to condemn terms call under islam and it was there that saudi arabia reversed back to being on the same side with the ram and against israel. with the majority if you're fed up states actually. it's establishing a certain alliance between them and is that in the pretext of facing the iranian threat this alliance is pushed forward by the united states of america as part of its good and strategy so this is supposed to donald trump's move because they want to disorder and get it all of the palestinian cause and as as an obstacle towards establishing an alliance with israel however they cannot be open in that of a position because this would embarrass them throughout the islamic world and now the region is again left on a precipice where sides will eventually need to be taken israel is attempting to
9:27 am
calm the waters by saying they're ready to settle the issue with palestine and have invited riyadh into the peace process i suggest that saudi arabia as the leader of the arab world take upon itself this initiative in goats. the palestinians and offer their patronage they all true weak they need someone to help them king solomon should come give patronage to and lead to peace initiative with the palestinians and the u.s. meanwhile the saudi foreign minister says the kingdom has a road map to establish full diplomatic ties with tel of eve should there be a peace agreement with the palestinians but the question remains will saudi arabia find a way to keep everyone happy and if not who will be left out one cold this time. meanwhile there has been a tense encounter at the u.n. security council as the u.s. and north korea traded accusations america's top diplomat threats to this in appeared to backtrack on a previous offer to start talks with pyongyang without preconditions to end the
9:28 am
ongoing crisis we will not accept a nuclear north korea the north career has been escalating its outrageous acts of provocations the deeper the disposable nuclear power. the. global threat north korea also threatens to shatter the foundation of international nonproliferation regime will further isolate north korea politically and economically there is no country likely yes we need to continue to all police the. other countries in cutting off support and funds for its own lawful nuclear and missile programs it is impossible to solve the nuclear problem on the korean peninsula just the sanctions and pressure on pyongyang north korea must earn its way back to the table. the pressure cain campaign must and will continue all of this makes you wonder whether the west even wants to find
9:29 am
a peaceful way of resolving the crisis the meeting is our john. well also that meeting the u.s. secretary of state a key is china and russia of undermining peace efforts saying that they need to do more pressure on pyongyang despite their moscow and beijing having proposed one plan which could diffuse the situation and idea. rebuffed from the outset the so-called double freeze would see north korea cease all nuclear tests in exchange for the u.s. and south korea ending their military exercises on pyongyang's doorstep you heard others here called for a freeze for freeze we do not accept a freeze for freeze as a precondition to talks i think president trump is demonstrating real ignorance about negotiating and how that works the reason you have to sit down is to avoid these kind of problems not set preconditions international community needs to do more to put pressure on the parties to sit down to demand that the parties sit down
9:30 am
unconditionally i mean you have to remember the united states has. south korea and japan and just a few countries have never even recognized the right of north korea to exist has not has not recognize them as a nation has no diplomatic relations so consequently who you talk to how you relate to them is always a little unclear no one's holding the united states feet to the fire to unconditionally sit down until there's a resolution to this issue so that we can work toward a nonproliferation in demilitarisation of the korean peninsula. now the former f.b.i. director james comey heavily edited statements on hillary clinton's misuse of a private e-mail server for official business the revelation comes from a release of f.b.i. documents and even show a draft statement clearing clinton of any wrongdoing two months prior.
