In tonight’s top story: According to a CSIS briefing obtained by Global News through the Access to Information Act, CSIS knew "that the People's Republic of China (PRC) sought to clandestinely and deceptively influence the 2019 and 2021 federal elections." David Akin digs into the details and why the top secret report predicts Canada's foreign interference problem will get worse.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has revealed her sweeping new 'Parental Rights' policy, which includes requiring parental consent for kids aged 15 years and younger on name and pronoun changes at school, participation in sexual health classes and bans on puberty blockers and hormone therapies. Heather Yourex-West reports on how the transgender community is reacting, the message to transgender people from those supporting the plan and the questions about how politics factors in this move.

There is a growing push for Canada to allow "advanced consent" for medical assistance in dying (MAID), which would allow a competent person to request MAID before they lose the ability to consent. As Neetu Garcha reports, the federal government is taking longer than expected to implement the legislation, leaving those living with dementia waiting in agony.

Just one in ten people who face a cardiac arrest out of hospital will survive, according to a new report from the Heart and Stroke Foundation. It finds that the number of cardiac arrests in Canada is significantly higher than previously estimated, with the data showing nearly half of cardiac arrests happen to people under the age of 65. As Katherine Ward reports, cardiac arrest can happen at any age — but prevention is key.

The European Union (EU) is agreeing to provide $54 billion USD to Ukraine to support its war against Russia, overcoming weeks of political infighting and a veto threat from Hungary. Crystal Goomansingh explains how the money will be divided up and how it still may not be enough.

Plus, Universal Music Group (UMG), the world's largest music company, has pulled its enormous catalogue of music from TikTok after talks to renew their licensing agreement fell apart. Mike Drolet explains the issues at the centre of the legal dispute, and what it means for UMG's artists and TikTok users.
