This week on Because News with Gavin Crawford, the G7 meets and one leader bolts early (wonder which one?) Meanwhile, back in Canada, Drake finds out Jagmeet Singh was at a Kendrick concert and slides into his DMs. Is Drake ok? Also: what will be the song of the summer? Can The Smurfs soundtrack compete with Mariah’s high notes? Join our panel with Ashley Botting, Andrew Phung, and Tom Hearn to find out with host Gavin Crawford.

Enhanced athletes, enhanced armies, and maybe a slightly enhanced Gavin? This week, Because News brings you a panel featuring Kris Siddiqi, Martha Chavez, and Craig Lauzon tackling a jam-packed week. From steroid-fuelled sports to a teen science fair that blows minds in Fredericton, NB. Plus, we strive for less screen time with the help of a movement called 'Appstinence.'

This week on Because News, we're joined by Brandon Ash-Mohammed, Jan Caruana and Courtney Gilmour. It was a busy news week as the premiers met in Saskatoon where Doug Ford made a musical entrance and Mark Carney was dubbed 'Santa Claus.' We also check in on the Oilers’ playoff run and ask, "why do the guys play Pink Pony Club in the locker room?" Plus, Anne of Green Gables gets a stage makeover, and The Price is Right Canada is here to remind us that no one knows what anything should cost anymore.
