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.

Reporter Steve Futterman was at the game.

It was a remarkable game seven. I mean, I thought the Jays were about to win. I was watching the game. I was actually right on the edge of the press box when Rojas hits this ball, and he is not known as a home-run hitter. You don't think of him as, while I'm still glad that he's at the plate,

you were waiting for the on-deck hitter, which was Shohei Otani. And then suddenly Rojas ties the game. I mean, talk about the air being. let out of the balloon, the old cliche, the dome went suddenly silent and really in shock. I mean, the Jays, their fans, they all thought it was over. The last time there was a repeat champion, 25 years ago, the New York Yankees with, you know, Derek Jeter, Joe Torrey, those teams, you don't have repeat champions anymore.

Now, obviously, the Dodgers are a bit of a controversial team. They pay what they need to pay to contend, and this time they won. There are two teams in L.A., the Angels, the Dodgers. Angel fans aren't necessarily Dodger fans, but. the Dodgers are the dominant team. They have the most fans. LA's pretty happy. Steve Futterman, CBC News, Toronto. Passengers on board a British train are describing scenes of terror during last night's stabbing attack. Ollie Foster is one of them. So I'm looking to my right and I just see 20 people around 20 people in pure panic. There's three people severely bleeding. And one guy is holding his

stomach and there's blood coming down the stomach down his leg and he's just going help, help of being stops. Ten people remain in hospital. Two of them are in life-threatening condition. The London-bound train was traveling from Eastern England at the time of the attack. Two people have been arrested. Both are British nationals. At this point, authorities are not speculating on a cause of the incident, only saying they don't believe it was a terrorist attack. Donald Trump is threatening Nigeria with military action over what he calls anti-Christian persecution. The U.S. President says he's asking the Pentagon to prepare it for a possible mission if Nigeria doesn't do more to protect them. Posting on his social media, Trump says he's ready to intervene with, quote, guns ablazing.

At least 23 people have been killed by a fire at a discount store in Mexico. Eleven others were injured. It happened in the northwestern city of Hermoy Sillo. The state attorney general says most of those killed died from inhaling toxic gases. local officials ruled out the possibility. It was a deliberate attack. A remarkable discovery in Italy is reawakening memories of a fallen soldier from Cape Britain. Hector Colin McDonald fought to liberate the country in the Second World War. 80 years after his death from a landmine, his duffel bag was found on a farm in northern Italy. Megan Williams reports.

North Nova Scotia Islander. Michele Fakini holds up a weathered canvas duffel bag and reads the faded words and tend on it more than eight decades ago by Hector Colin McDonald. Fakini discovered the bag this summer likely left by Hector in early December, just days before he was killed by land wine

crossing the Lomone River as Canadian troops pushed north through mud and freezing cold. Fellow researcher Rafael Cortese de Bozis set out to find his family, reaching Canadian Armed Forces veteran Kim Pike in Kingston. All it said was he was my great-uncle. Pike's daughter, Stacey Jordan, McDonald's great-great-niece, traveled here to Italy to accept the bag in a ceremony in his honor. So many people in my family, being in the military, it does really hit close.

She'll now bring the duffel bag home to Canada to a family that never forgot his sacrifice. Megan Williams, CBC News, Roussee, Italy. your world this hour. For CBC News, I'm Claude Fagg.
