Brazilian authorities detained more than 1,000 demonstrators after they invaded and vandalized Brazil’s Congress, Presidential Palace and Supreme Court on Sunday. Many may be charged under the country’s anti-terrorism legislation with attempting to carry out a coup. And, in Haiti, there are no longer any democratically elected representatives working in the federal government. The last 10 senators in Haiti's parliament left office on Monday night. Also, fresh on the heels of the North American Leaders Summit comes news that Canada has finalized a deal to buy 88 F-35 fighter jets from the US. The F-35s will replace Canada's aging fleet of fighter aircraft. Plus, move over rice — China says to eat more potatoes.
