This ascent isn't for everyone. You need grit to climb this high this often. You've got to be an underdog that always over-delivers. You've got to be 6,500 hospital staff, 1,000 doctors, all doing so much with so little. You've got to be Scarborough. Defined by our uphill battle and always striving towards new heights. And you can help us keep climbing.

A pinch hit grand slam. Addison Archer does indeed blow it open. 11 to 4. Once again, the final four, the Blue Jays, an extraordinary result for a team that finished last place in their own division last season now are up one game to none against the defending champion, L.A. Dodgers.

The CBC's Thomas Dagg reporting, the Blue Jays fans in B.C. and across the country are related after the team's massive 11-4 victory over the Dodgers, of course, in-game 1 of the World Series. The CBC's Dan Barrett spoke with Jay's Faithful in Vancouver. Let's go, Blue Jay! Ravi Sharma, visiting from Toronto, led the victory cheers in Vancouver. While his family ate dinner in a booth, Sharma didn't sit down for five innings, pacing nervously between sips of beer. The Dodgers have been dominant, my God, for the last year or so. So them getting down one is amazing for us.

Starting today in Innu in Labrador are voting on reconciliation and collaboration with hydro Quebec. An agreement and principle was reached earlier this year. They filed for ecological and cultural damages from the Churchill Falls Hydroelectric Project. Reagan burden has more. Labrador is giving way too much. We're only going to receive, only little.

Thomas Michel lives in Chajit, and is not sure voting yes to the agreement between Innu Nation and Hydro-Cabec will best serve him. The agreement would see Hydro-Cabec paying out $87 million to the Inou of Labrador in the form of annual payments over a period of 16 years. The Innu say that Churchill Falls, something that Hydro-Cabecade played an essential role in, was done without consultation and consent. But Edward Nuna believes the communities need the financial benefit and wants the agreement to pass.

I respect everybody's decision, but I think it's a great opportunity for community development, more houses, more services. The vote requires 50% participation, and 60% of those must be in favor for the agreement to pass. Reagan-Burton, CBC News, happy value. Goose Bay.
