The World This Hour for 2025/11/22 at 06:00 EST

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.

Police and conservation officers are continuing their hunt for the grizzly bear that attacked a group of students and their teachers on BC's Central Coast. It happened Thursday in Bella Cula. About 20 kids and their teachers from Newhawk First Nation were on an afternoon trip

and had stopped by a trail for lunch when the attack occurred. Inspector Kevin Van Dam is a BC. Conservation Officer. Teachers successfully repelled the bear using pepper spray and a bear banger. Additional conservation officers arrived to investigate the incident. The bear has not been located at this time. Mitigation techniques have been set to capture and evaluate the bear in question. Three children and one adult were taken to hospital in Bellocula and then transferred to Vancouver for treatment. Two are in critical condition. The other two are serious. Firebrand, Republican Congresswoman, Marjorie Taylor Green says she's resigning. She was one of Donald Trump's most loyal supporters,

but has opposed him on several issues, most notably the Jeffrey Epstein files. Standing up for American women who were raped at 14 years old, trafficked and used by rich, powerful men should not result in me being called a traitor and threatened by the president of the United States, whom I fought for. Last week, Trump branded her Marjorie Trader Green, her criticism of his attention to international matters like Gaza and Ukraine rather than the America First Agenda that he had campaigned on. Other issues included rising inflation and health care subsidies. It's a familiar refrain to many parents, the child who says they can't go to school because they're sick. A CBC news investigation is found it's happening more than it

used to. An experts say some of it may be linked to anxiety and mental health. Tara Carmen has more. Got a special computer pouch, right? Yeah. 12-year-old William DiPasquale and his parents are packing his backpack for school. But these days, he's not in a hurry to go. Williams says other kids bully him in the schoolyard because he's small for his age and has a facial twitch. William's father, Norm DiPasquale, says getting him to school the next day is a challenge.

You know, when these kind of incidents happen, I'm pretty well guaranteed there's going to be in absence the next day. CBC requested attendance data from 46 of the biggest school districts in Canada. We heard back from just over half. All showed more absences at all age levels compared with five years ago. Experts agree there's no one reason. More parents working from home, technology that makes remote learning easier, or more kids staying at home with the sniffles could all be factors.

But most agree deteriorating mental health, things like anxiety, are behind some of it. Tara Carmen's CBC News, Vancouver. Pope Leo's delivering a message about technology to the world's youth. In your education, make the most of this time. AI can process information quickly, but it cannot replace human intelligence. And don't ask it to do your homework for you. Leo spoke from the Vatican to a Catholic youth conference being held in Indianapolis, where delegates asked him about the connection between tech and the young. The Pope even offered up some strategy to wordle players, saying he starts with a different

word every day. Women's hockey history was made in Vancouver last night. Well, the West Coast expansion era begins tonight with the Golden Eye at Center Ice ready to watch history unfold. The Golden Eyes hosted the Seattle Torrent. They are the latest expansion teams in the professional women's hockey league playing on the opening night of the league's third season, and the cellout crowd of 15,000 strong got their money's worth with the game going to overtime. The game winning goal in overtime. And in the Vancouver Golden Eyes win their first ever game in the PWA HHS. Yes, the Golden Eyes edged out the torrent four to three.
