Potential fallout from U.S. & U.K. airstrikes on Houthi sites in Yemen, Canadas ER crisis

Concerns in the Middle East are rising following U.S. and U.K. targeted airstrikes on Houthi-linked sites in Yemen. These airstrikes come as U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken wraps up his latest tour of the region. 'The West Block' guest host Eric Sorensen speaks with Frank Lowenstein, a former U.S. special envoy for Israeli-Palestinian negotiations, on the implications of the U.S.-led strikes on Houthi sites, the White House's diplomacy in the region, and the next stages of the Israel-Hamas conflict. Plus, Sorensen sits down with a panel of doctors, Dr. Kathleen Ross (Canadian Medical Association) and Dr. Trevor Jain (Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians), to discuss the issue of lengthy ER wait times, how politicians should address the crisis, and more.
