The Canadian prime minister, Justin Trudeau, has apologised for wearing skin darkening make-up and a turban at an Arabian nights themed party almost two decades ago; the White House strips California of its right to set its own vehicle emissions standards, state representatives say they will challenge the ruling in the courts; and we hear about the Kurdish children labouring to gather hazelnuts to make treats for kids around the world.
