Today on The Current:

  • Last month, advice columnist E. Jean Carroll accused U.S. President Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her in the mid 1990s. While he denies the allegation, she tells us why she waited so long to make it.
  • Amid reports of fresh warnings, we talk to former federal justice minister Allan Rock about what more needs to be done about foreign interference in Canada's fall election.
  • This summer, The Current is bringing you the best from CBC podcasts. We continue with Episode 8 of Uncover: The Village, which explores numerous cases of missing and murdered men in Toronto's gay community, dating back to the 1970s.
