A 23-year-old Canadian soldier is being remembered as a fearless, adventurous young man who found a sense of belonging in the Canadian Armed Forces. Pte. Aidan Goulding was laid to rest in Vancouver on Sunday, with full military honours. He was one of four soldiers who died last month in a fast-moving fire at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright. Thirty-nine others were injured, and many remain in hospital. Sarah MacDonald has our top story on how Goulding is being honoured.
Each year on Nov. 8, the City of Toronto joins Canadians across the country in recognizing Indigenous Veterans Day. Attendees honour the service, sacrifice and contributions of First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples to Canada’s military history. As Megan King reports, these veterans played a significant role in freedom fighting while facing systemic barriers and discrimination.
Poland has entered two days of mourning after a shooter killed six people on Saturday and wounded more than a dozen others. The suspected perpetrator is now in critical condition in hospital, and the Polish government has claimed he was influenced by 'far-right ideologies.' Heidi Petracek explains how the nation is grieving, and what's next for investigators.
Still reeling from his party's defeat last week during the U.S. midterm elections, President Donald Trump is now calling for Democratic lawmakers to be investigated by the Department of Justice (DOJ) — before power in Congress changes hands at the beginning of next year. Candice Cole has more from Washington.
A Haitian gang leader is calling on the UN to help negotiate peace — with a foreign government. It's a sign the gangs may be getting nervous, with El Salvador's president deploying thousands of soldiers to the country. As Mike Armstrong explains, what started as a rescue mission may be turning into a much bigger battle to break the gangs' grip on Haiti's streets.
Prime Minister Mark Carney and Quebec Premier Paul St-Pierre Plamondon are trying to repair their working relationship after some recent tensions and having different visions for Canada's future. However, the two leaders do share a common bond, with both having played goalie for Oxford University's hockey team in the U.K. The leaders are among a long line of prominent Canadians who've laced up for the prestigious institution. In fact, the team still wears a red maple leaf. Redmond Shannon has more.
