Pressure grows on Trudeau

A series of resignations from the Canadian government have caused a major crisis.

A series of resignations from the government of prime minister Justin Trudeau have caused a major crisis. It all centres on a construction firm - one of the biggest companies in Canada - LNC Lavalin. It has been claimed the company bribed officials in Libya, and Trudeau's government then put illegitimate pressure on prosecutors not to take the company to court. Robert Fife, Ottawa Bureau Chief of the Globe and Mail newspaper, gives us the latest. And the Pritzker architecture prize has been awarded to 87 year old Arata Isozaki, designer of very eccentric buildings. Dr Julian Worrall of the School of Architecture at the University of Adelaide gives us an insight into Isozaki's work. Plus Joe Saluzzi of Themis Trading in New Jersey on the day's trading on Wall Street.
