The World This Hour for 2025/10/28 at 09:00 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. borough.ca. From CBC News, it's the world this hour. I'm Joe Cummings. It was a game that lasted six hours and 39 minutes. But it ends as a Blue J loss and the L.A. Dodgers taking game three of the World Series. Thomas DeGla has the details. After 18 innings of baseball, Freeman has ended it.

After 18 innings of baseball, baseball and in front of a stadium full of bleary-eyed fans, Freddie Freeman walked it off. Last year's World Series MVP, born to Canadian parents, Freeman blasted a solo homer to center field, claiming game three for the Dodgers 6 to 5. Oh my gosh, just fear, fear excitement. Freeman's game winner capped off a marathon that lasted longer than two average big league games combined. Jay's manager John Schneider. The Dodgers didn't win the World Series today.

They won a game. You know what I mean? Shoh! Amid it all, the sports biggest star Shohay Otani belted four extra base hits. Otani is set to start on the mound in game four. Tonight, Thomas Dagg, CBC News, Los Angeles. Now to Jamaica and the approach of Hurricane Melissa.

I have seen and heard that it's going to be very catastrophic. That is the manager of an emergency shelter. in Montego Bay. The hurricane, which is now a category five, is set to make land at some point this morning. It was sustained winds at 280 kilometers an hour and intense rainfall. It's being called the most powerful storm on the planet this year. The island nation's 2.8 million people are being urged to gather food and essential medications and to be prepared for extended periods without power. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is accusing Hamas of violating the Gaza ceasefire agreement.

He says the remains of the hostage returned yesterday are actually the body parts of a hostage recovered by Israeli troops almost two years ago. There are still the bodies of 13 hostages in Gaza, and the slow recovery of their remains is delaying the next stage of the ceasefire. Using its legislative majority, Alberta's United Conservative government is fast-tracking its back-to-work bill that will put an end to the province's teacher strike. The bill invokes the notwithstanding clause of the Canadian Constitution, which is drawing criticism from the teachers' union and labor groups right across the country.

But it's criticism that Premier Daniel Smith is ignoring. We know and feel like this is the right bargaining decision. So I would just hope that people would look at their own personal circumstances and just give an honest assessment of whether they think it's fair. Most of the parents I talk to, they think it's fair. Many of the teachers who've contacted us, they think it's fair. And I think most of all it's fair to the students who are the ones who are most impacted. As for the opposition, here is NDP leader, Nahed Nenshi.

They've taken the nuclear option on something that they could have avoided, and Albertans will be forgiven for asking themselves, who's next? What rights does this Premier want to defend, and which ones is she willing to trample over? And for whom? Alberta's 51,000 teachers have been on strike now since October the 6th. Ahead of this week's APEC summit in South Korea. U.S. President Donald Trump today is in Japan. Anything I can do to help Japan, we will be there.

We are an ally at the strongest level. That's Trump praising Japanese Prime Minister Sanei Takaichi as they arrive at a naval beast. A key part of the visit for the Trump administration is building a relationship with the new prime minister, which includes the implementation of a trade agreement between the two nations. It reaffirmed the earlier framework. by which the U.S. would tax imported Japanese goods by at least 15% and the creation of a $500 billion fund for Japan to invest in the United States. And that is the World This Hour.
