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.

So that's why I would expect the opposition parties to be supportive because there is something for every Canadian in that budget. Some estimates say the federal budget could contain a deficit

between $70 and $100 billion. The liberals will need some help for it to pass. With the current minority, they'll need three opposition votes. The federal government wants to try and recoup funding from an automaker that pulled production out of a Canadian plant. Last month, Stalantis said it would move to its Jeep Compass Vehicle Assembly from Ontario to Illinois, despite its contract to invest in that plant and Canadian workers. Today, industry minister Melanie Jolie said Ottawa will seek reimbursement of federal aid if Stalantis does not commit to building another vehicle at the factory,

northwest of Toronto. It's a very backbone of the Ontario economy that is at stake. And if we don't fight for all these jobs and for the auto industry, it will have an impact, yes, on Ontario. But as a Quebec, I very much understand that it will have an impact on the rest of the country. The Canadian government, along with Ontario, have pledged billions in subsidies for the automaker. A Saskatchewan man has been charged with manslaughter in connection with a highway shooting. The incident left the community of Weyburn shaken after a woman was killed in her car in September. Alexander Silberman has the story. A Regina man has been arrested and charged in the shooting death of a woman on a Saskatchewan highway. 42-year-old Chris Falman is facing four charges,

including one count of manslaughter with a firearm. Tanya Myers was shot and killed near Weyburn on September 12th as a passenger in an SUV. She was traveling in one of two vehicles hit by bullets on the highway, leaving the community fearful and at a loss as to why someone would shoot passing cars. I don't have any information relating to him hunting in the area or poaching. Inspector Ashley St. Germain is an investigator with Saskatchewan RCMP. She says police are not aware of any connection between Falman and Myers. I would discourage speculating or, you know, perpetuating rumors about what may or may not have happened. Fallman is set to appear in court on Tuesday. Alexander Silberman, CBC News, Regina. The world's leading authority on hunger has declared

a famine in parts of Sudan. That includes the city of El Fasher, where a deteriorating humanitarian crisis is unfolding. Since 2023, Sudan has been torn upon. part by a civil war that the UN says has left more than 30 million people relying on aid. Chris Brown reports. The fall of El Fasher in Sudan's Darfur region may be a turning point in the country's two-and-a-half-year civil war. The rapid support forces captured the city last week, forcing out the Sudanese armed forces after a brutal siege, and ever since there have been reports of hideous massacres of civilians

with hundreds dead. Now, the IPC, the world's leading authority on hunger, has declared a famine in El Fasher. Ida El-Said of Sudan's Red Crescent says tens, if not hundreds of thousands of people, are fleeing the city. So if they flee away for the way of the desert, they will die from hunger and surrethi. The head of the International Red Cross described the situation as horrific. The Pope has urged dialogue and relief efforts, but at the moment there's little evidence of either. Chris Brown, CBC News, London. And that is The World This Hour.
