    Heated debate and insults in the Canadian parliament as the government faces two confidence motions. The Bloc Québécois lays out new conditions to support the government.

    Airstrikes in Lebanon, world leaders at the UN, non-confidence in the House, and more

    More than 550 people are dead in Lebanon as Israel hits Hezbollah targets. The militant group retaliates with rockets into Israel, largely intercepted before they land. The human cost of the conflict becomes more stark, as a wider regional war seems to inch closer. We take a look at how the war is affecting people in the region and here in Canada. And: The UN General Assembly kicks off with a warning from Secretary General Antonio Guterres – the world is in a whirlwind, facing challenges unlike any seen before. Also: The House of Commons debates the Conservative Party’s non-confidence motion. The goal – topple the governing Liberals, but other parties are making it a debate about the Conservatives’ policies. Plus… A grain terminal strike, a remote First Nation in Manitoba tries to improve health outcomes for mothers and babies, Cineplex fined nearly $40 million, and more.

    Deadliest day in Lebanon in years, Canada’s stance on Haiti, grizzly bear attacks and more

    Lebanese authorities say more than 350 people are dead, and tens of thousands are fleeing for safety. Israel claims to have hit around 800 Hezbollah targets in the country. It's Lebanon's deadliest day of conflict since at least 2006 - when Israel and Hezbollah were at war. And: On his second day in New York, PM Justin Trudeau turns his attention to Haiti. Canada is pushing for more to be done to help rout violent gangs from the country and restore democracy. Also: Grizzly bear attacks on people – including one earlier this month – are adding pressure on the Alberta government to launch its promised hunt of dangerous bears.  But conservationists say it will reverse progress already made in the recovery of the grizzly population. Plus… Michael Kovrig speaks, two trailblazing female football players meet in Manitoba, day three of election campaigning in B.C., and more.
