About this listen

Jewish communities across North America are on alert after another attack. A man drove his car into — and through — a synagogue in Michigan. He was armed, and the car burst into flames inside the building. It’s another incident, adding to the fear felt at synagogues and Jewish schools.


And: The first statement from Iran’s new leader Mojtaba Khamenei says the military should keep up its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. It also says Iran will continue to target U.S. military bases, and wants reparations for the deaths of Iranians killed by American bombing.


Also: Prime Minister Mark Carney goes to Yellowknife to detail plans to reinforce security in Canada’s north.


Plus: Manitoba considers ban on pay-for-plasma, airline prices going up again, a bill to make it easier for police and Canada’s spy service to investigate online activity, and more.
