The World This Hour for 2025/02/27 at 05:00 EST

The following is advertiser content from Audible. What if achieving your dreams was just a matter of looking beyond yourself? In Super Attractor, Methods for Manifesting a Life Beyond Your Wildest Dreams, author Gabby Bernstein shows you how to embrace a spiritual approach to self-improvement and unlock the secrets to manifestation. Listen to a sample now. Living my life in daily devotion to this non-physical source of power has made me a super-attractor.

Being a super-attractor means that what I believe is what I receive. I can co-create the world I want to see by aligning with good-feeling emotions and directing them toward my desires. I can tap into an unlimited source of creative energy to contribute inspired ideas, offer wisdom, receive abundance, and feel free. From CBC News, the world this hour, I'm Neil Herland. We begin with breaking news from overnight. The legendary American actor Gene Hackman has been found dead, along with his wife and dog. Their bodies were all discovered in New Mexico during a welfare check.

Hackman played many memorable film roles including the villain in Superman. Hackman won two Oscars for the French Connection and Unforgiven. Foul play is not suspected in his death but we don't know the circumstances. Gene Hackman dead at 95. The Manitoba government says potential human remains have been found at the Prairie Green landfill north of Winnipeg. A search for the bodies of Morgan Harris and Mercedes Myron officially started in December. There are two of the four indigenous women murdered by serial killer Jeremy Skibitzky. Wab Kanu is the premier of Manitoba.

As a province I think it's really really important for us to reflect on what this says about Manitobans. That we are a province that when somebody goes missing we go looking and I think we've always understood that searching the landfill was the right thing to do but with the disclosure of potential human remains being found today, I think we can also say it was a realistic and a reasonable thing for us to do. The federal and Manitoba governments pledge 20 million dollars each for the search.

In recent weeks, close to 300 migrants of different nationalities have been deported from the United States and sent to Panama. It's part of a deal signed between the two countries. Melissa Kent reports from Panama City. Men, women and children are loaded onto two buses outside the Decapolis Hotel in the heart of Panama City. It's not clear where they're being taken. These are the last of the nearly 300 migrants from Asia, the Middle East and Africa deported by the U.S. on military planes to Panama and locked inside this hotel for almost two weeks. Panama says they're here as part of an agreement with the U.S.

We haven't said they are deprived of their liberties, says Fran Cabrego, Panama's public security minister. They are in our custody for their protection. He also says they're free to return to their country of origin. But those unwilling or unable to go back have been sent to a remote facility in the Darien jungle region along Panama's border with Colombia. They'll be held there until another country is willing to take them in. Melissa Kent for CBC News, Panama City. The federal government is formally apologizing for its role in relocating Inuit in the 1930s and into

the 40s. The first relocation of Inuit was done to strengthen Canada's sovereignty. Juanita Taylor is an Arctic Bay Nunavut, where the apology is happening. Lysha Kavavalk and his wife Taqunnak look closely at 80-year-old photos for the first time of Inuit around the time when Lysha's father was put on a ship from King Ait, formerly Cape Dorset, and dropped off at Dundas Harbor, 1200 kilometers away. The Hudson's Bay Company, with the federal government's approval, recruited Lysha's

father and 52 other Inuit from King Ate, Pangnaktok, and Pond Inlet in 1932. They were sent to Dundas Harbor to hunt, trap, and trade. They were promised to come home in two years, but that didn't happen. Survivors say they suffered lasting impacts of loss from their land, animals and families. That's why the Dundas Harbor Relocation Society has been fighting to get this apology. The federal minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations will be delivering the apology this afternoon at a public event. Juanita Taylor, CBC News, Arctic Bay, Nunavut.
