Global National: July 4, 2026 | Canada’s historic run at FIFA World Cup ends in loss to Morocco

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChLtXXpo4Ge1ReTEboVvTDg https://ift.tt/r3LzBwU Canada’s historic run at the FIFA World Cup has come to an end. Morocco defeated Canada 3-0 in the Round of 16 in Houston, Texas, on Saturday. The 2022 semi-finalists were unquestionably Canada’s toughest opponents of the tournament. Despite the loss, Canada was able to make it further than ever before, exceeding the expectations of many. Global’s Sarah MacDonald reports. It’s expected viewership for this World Cup match between Canada and Morocco could break records with people right across the country watching, including the prime minister. Global’s Sean O’Shea is in Toronto at one of many watch parties. On July 4, the U.S. has a lot to reflect on, not just with its past, but also its present and future, with an administration bent on changing what defines the country. Heidi Petracek reports on what some Americans are feeling as they mark this moment in the country's history. Uncertainty remains over a new border crossing between Ontario and Michigan. The Gordie Howe Bridge was completed last month, but its opening has been postponed as it seemingly draws the ire of the Trump administration. In an exclusive interview, Global’s Mackenzie Gray asks U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra to explain the White House’s issue over the bridge and apparent donations from an American group that’s lobbied against it. This week California banned the use of consumer ‘sell-by’ dates labelling on most food products. It’s an effort to reduce the vast amount of food thrown out due to confusion over ‘expiration’, ‘best before' and ‘sell-by’ dates. With other states exploring similar legislation, Jillian Piper looks into whether California’s model could work in Canada. An extremely rare sight off the coast of Victoria, B.C., recently even has experts in awe. The second-largest species of animal in the world, the fin whale was spotted. As Kylie Stanton reports, the sighting is being credited to conservation efforts.
