The federal government wants the Coalition to support a free trade agreement with Europe, which would make European food, wine, cars and clothes cheaper.
Australian domestic meat farmers and steelmakers say it will hurt the local industry and the Liberal and Nationals party agree.
Trade Minister Don Farrell says the Coalition should support the deal.
"It's worth $10 billion dollars from the start of the agreement very quickly rising to $30 billion dollars. This is a really good agreement for Australia. It's an opportunity to work with all of those countries around the world that also believe in free and fair trade."
Economists have looked at the potential impact of the One Nation party's plan to make big cuts to migration.
Researchers have found 820,000 fewer people would be in paid work in the next decade, which could cost Australia around $275 billion.
Economist Saul Eslake says typically migrants pay a lot of tax and don't use as many social services.
"It's been suggested that One Nation's migration intake would eliminate any prospect of returning the budget to surplus within the next 10 years and that inevitably means higher levels of debt."
In Canada, ay least four soldiers are dead and 39 injured after a fire broke out at a military base in Alberta.
Terrorism has been ruled out as a cause, but Major General Wade Rutland says it could take at least a month before investigators find out what happened.
"The circumstances surrounding the incident are under investigation. And more details will emerge as the situation clarifies. The Canadian forces national investigation service has deployed the CFB Wainwright. As well as the first military police regiment incident response team. And finally they are working aside our CNP investigators."
And to sport, in women's cricket, Australia has beaten New Zealand by two wickets in the opening T20 International.
Captain Ellyse Perry says the team were rusty, but they recovered.
"We always try or endeavour to get off to a good start. And the power play seems to be key to that. So it is nice to get a really fun partnership with Beth. She batted incredibly well, as per usual. And just nice to bring that rate down, I think, as well as early as we did. Perhaps not as clinical as we would have liked. I guess that is kind of how it goes sometimes in T20 when you keep pushing the game forward. It is nice to finish in the way that we did."
