The World This Hour for 2025/04/24 at 11:00 EDT

Fisherman John Coppock and his son Craig were hoping that their day on the water would finish with a good haul of cod. Instead, they reeled in way more than they bargained for. They had a net filled with fish and to their horror and surprise, the body of a man. I'm Kathleen Goldthar and this week on Crime Story, a body in the ocean untangles a sea of lies. Find Crime Story wherever you get your podcasts. From CBC News, it's The World This Hour. I'm Joe Cummings. A 30-year-old man has been shot and killed by police

at Toronto's Pearson International Airport. Ontario's police watchdog says three officers fired their weapons this morning outside the departures level at Pearson's Terminal 1. There are reports the shots were fired as police were investigating a man in distress in an SUV. Police say the man was pronounced dead at hospital and no officers were injured. We're getting more information now on the first telephone conversation between Prime

Minister Mark Carney and US President Donald Trump. The call took place during the first week of the election campaign. And our colleagues at Radio Canada are reporting there was more to it than what we were previously told. Janice McGregor reports. Initially, Carney told reporters Trump had respected Canada in both the president's private and public comments. But Carney then paused, said he was tempted to add more, but didn't. Sources tell Radio Canada that in fact Trump did bring up the idea of Canada being the 51st state in that call, something they described as not easy.

But Carney apparently let Trump speak and then said the two leaders would have to agree to disagree. Now, the prime minister's office has confirmed to Radio Canada that Trump did bring up his 51st state idea on the call, but PMO denies that Carney replied he'd agreed to disagree. Apparently overall though, it was still a positive call. That much lines up with what we were first led to believe. Janice McGregor, CBC News, Ottawa. Now to the election campaign and another busy day for the three main party leaders. Conservative

leader Pierre Poliev started his day with an appearance earlier this morning in Halifax. He's now headed to Saskatoon. Liberal leader Mark Carney will get started in Port Moody, but later today flies to Winnipeg, which is where NDP leader Jagmeet Singh is this morning. Singh later will be flying to Toronto. Still with news from the campaign, work is underway across the country to ensure those at homeless shelters will be able to cast their ballot on Election Day. Joshua Crabb has more now from Winnipeg.

I always watch about on the news about who's running and all that. He doesn't have a permanent address but that won't stop Edward Parisian from voting. For many others staying at homeless shelters in Winnipeg's inner city, not having a place to live is a barrier, so is a lack of identification. Margo Ross with Salome Mission says that shouldn't stop people from taking part. We'll have drop-in staff who hold the strongest relationships with our community members, encouraging folks to go out and vote. Elections Canada dropped off forms to homeless shelters across the country staff vote for the identity of people who use their services and tell them

where to vote Cindy Titus with Main Street project says they helped 17 people in Winnipeg vote in advance the folks that we serve have a lot of other things going on and and that they made voting a priority in their days that's a pretty big deal Josh crab Crabb, CBC News, Winnipeg. Tensions are rising between India and Pakistan in the wake of this week's deadly shooting in Kashmir. 26 people were killed in the attack that took place at a popular tourist destination. Ishan Garg has the latest. We will pursue them to the ends of the earth.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowing revenge. In his first public speech since the attack in Pehelgaum, Modi vowed to destroy terrorist hideouts. And also supporters of terrorism, a gesture seemingly aimed at neighbouring Pakistan. Islamabad, meanwhile, is formulating a strategy to counter India's latest move. Delhi has decided to downgrade its diplomatic ties and close its main border with Pakistan. It has also suspended a crucial water treaty, a move that could strain fresh water supply to Islamabad. All eyes are now on Delhi's next move.

Some experts say it could launch a targeted military strike, elevating tension even further. Ishan Garg for CBC News, New Delhi.
