On The House midweek podcast, Sarada Peri, former senior speechwriter to Barack Obama, and Ryerson Leadership Lab's Karim Bardeesy discuss safeguarding democracy in the face of election interference. "I'm not sure we can trust Facebook to be the arbiters of what is true and false [online]," said Peri. In a Twitter post, Trump said the "North Korea relationship is best it has ever been with U.S." and added there is a "decent chance of denuclearization." Trump and Kim are expected to sit down for a second summit, likely in Singapore at the end of February. "It's important for Canada to give some serious thought to the fact that North Korea is a de facto nuclear state and will remain so, despite our wish."
