Carney says it will happen in the next five years with a focus on energy, particularly building infrastructure to drive both clean and conventional energy and trade corridors. Also in Kuala Lampur, the Prime Minister took some lighthearted jabs on Ontario Premier Doug Ford, apparently in response to the anti-tariff TV ads which sparked the termination of U.S. Canada trade talks. A few days ago, I launched with my good friend, Premier Ford.

Did I say good friend, Premier Ford? I said the always entertaining, no, the always interesting, the always unpredictable President, Premier Ford. Yeah, God, sorry, I don't know why I mixed the two up, President and Premier Ford. Is that on, by the way? The comments made during a news conference at the summit this morning. Up until an hour ago, we had no ideas about what was happening. We were kind of resigned ourselves to the fact that we were going to be stuck in a hurricane.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have now even the World Series at a game of peace after defeating the Toronto Blue Jays in game two of the fall classic last night in Toronto. Steve Futterman has more. Winning the first two games of the World Series doesn't guarantee victory,

but it gives you a pretty good chance. And that's what the Blue Jays were hoping to do. The Dodgers took an early one-nothing lead in the first, but Toronto came back to tide in the third. It stayed that way until the seven. High drive deep to left field. It's Smith with a big swing. Dodger catcher Will Smith hit a solo home run to make it two to one.

Two batters later, it was three to one. This time it was Max Muncie hitting the home run. L.A. added two more runs than the eighth. That was more than enough for L.A. starter, Yoshiyamamoto, who did something very rare in modern baseball. Pitch a complete game in the World Series. Before the game, the hero of the Blue Jays' 1993 World Series Championship, Joe Carter, throughout the ceremonial first pitch.

But on this night, there was no Joe Carter walk-off magic. Steve Futterman, CBC News at the World Series in Toronto. Manitoba is on track to inject a significant number of U.S. doctors into the health care system. Recruiters have been tapping into the market because of the political climate south of the border. Josh Crabb reports. Come February, there will be a new face in Brandon Manitoba's emergency department. US-trained Dr. Arley-Trainor arrives with 25 years' experience. The fact that you can get such wonderful care and it doesn't bankrupt you is a huge thing.

Born in Manitoba, she's mainly returning for family reasons, but Traynor says Trump administration policies were also a factor. Several Canadian provinces are aggressively recruiting American health care workers and trying to make it easier for them to make the transition. Dr. Ainsley Mahalchuk heads up the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Manitoba. She says U.S. trained and certified doctors no longer have to do Canadian certification exams or work temporarily under supervision. The province will see one of the biggest increases ever in American doctors moving north.

Ten have registered in Manitoba since Trump was elected last year, and another eight are going through the process. Crabb, CBC News, Winnipeg. And that is your world this hour. For CBC News, I'm Clawfake.
