The World This Hour for 2025/10/26 at 18:00 EDT

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.

Donate at lovescarbro.cairbo. from cbc news the world this hour i'm like miles both prime minister mark carney and u.s president donald trump are in malaysia for a summit but they're not on the same page when it comes to cross-border trade an angry trump saying yesterday he's going to impose an additional 10% tariff on canada david thurton has more on the reaction from ottawa yeah i'll just i'll just make a few comments Prime Minister Mark Carney oversees in Malaysia responding to the latest escalation in trade talks with the U.S. Donald Trump, angry about an anti-tariff ad from the Ontario government

that aired in the U.S., announcing a 10% tariff on Canadian goods and services. Carney seemingly sending a message to premiers like Ontario's Doug Ford. It is the sole responsibility of the government of Canada to have those discussions with the United States. One White House official U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Besant called Ontario's ad propaganda. The Premier of Ontario seems to have come off the rails a little. He has taken the ads down,

but what's the purpose of that other than to try to sway U.S. public opinion? Prest about the additional 10% tariff, Bcent couldn't say whether it would apply to specific sectors or cross the board. David Thurton, CBC News, Ottawa. Specialized teams from the Red Cross in Egypt have been allowed into Gaza to help with the search for the bodies of deceased Israeli hostages. Shush Bedrosian is an Israeli government spokesperson. The team is using between two to three excavator machines

and two to three trucks to search for our deceased hostages. Now, the Red Cross and the Egyptian team are allowed entry beyond the IDF's yellow line position into Gaza territory to conduct the search for our hostages. Meanwhile, Israeli forces say they carried out what they call a targeted strike on an individual in central Gaza, they accuse the person of planning to attack Israeli forces in the occupied territory. In Alberta, doctors and patients are pushing back against a province-wide COVID-19 vaccine program. The Alberta Medical Association says the government is limiting access to the vaccine

by charging most people $100 to receive it. And on top of that, Albertans are also reporting long wait times and low availability when trying to book appointments. Jamie Halman says she spent hours on the phone. It is frustrating and maddening that the government is making it so difficult to keep our kids and our communities safe with vaccines. Primary Care Alberta confirms the system has been experiencing extremely high call volumes but says it should improve in the next few days. BC's eight-week-long public service workers strike could soon be ending after a tentative deal was reached between the union and the province. BC General Employees Union President Paul Finch says workers were striking for a fair deal.

And he believes they found it. We reached a tentative agreement that's just that. So we're incredibly happy with this deal. And obviously, you know, I think that this comes out for a very hard-fought victory for our members and really for broadly for working people in B.C. More than 25,000 workers have been on some form of job actions in September 2nd, impacting everything from liquor distribution

to wildfire fighting. The tentative agreement still needs to be ratified and includes a 3% general wage increase per year for the next four years. In a statement, B.C.'s finance minister says she's pleased to see the deal, but won't comment any further until workers vote on it. It's been exactly six months since 11 people were killed and dozens more injured at Vancouver's Lapu-Lapu Day Festival.

This weekend, the community gathered a nearby new Westminster for a day of healing. Bella Senazirro says it's important to have a safe space to connect and grieve together. There's still sadness and grief, right? Because we cannot speed up the process of grieving and dealing with loss. Especially in our community, Filipino community. We are a collective community. So we really support each other. We rely on each other.

Participants took part in grief seminars, art workshops, and yoga. And that is your world this hour. For news anytime, visit our website, cbcnews.ca. For CBC News, I'm... like Miles.
