On this episode of Global National: There's no doubt that the respiratory virus season is hitting hard and fast this year. It's forcing hospitals across Canada to make some desperate changes. As Marney Blunt tells us, all this comes amid new cautions from the World Health Organization, as drastic measures are being considered worldwide to slow virus spread.

A major change is coming soon to Canada's assisted dying laws and it's already causing division among medical experts. By March, it will be legal for people with mental health issues to receive medical assistance in dying (MAID).

Jennifer Johnson has the latest.

Plus, the video could belong on any international music channel and the artists signed to any famous record label. But the talented bunch performing in the single They Fly isn't too hard to reach. They can be easily found walking the halls of Howard S Billings High School in Châteauguay, Que. Gloria Henriquez has the story.
