The deaths of three German tourists killed in an avalanche while taking part in a heli-ski tour in the B.C. Interior are adding to the province's deadliest avalanche season in recent memory. Heather Yourex-West explains how the latest tragedy is triggering questions about whether backcountry tour operators do enough to keep their guests safe.

The biggest storm of the season is set to slam Ontario and Quebec. The flights already grounded, and the flurry of travel warnings. Global News meteorologist Anthony Farnell provides his latest forecast.

Nobel Peace Prize winner and pro-democracy activist Ales Bialiastski has been sentenced to 10 years in prison in Minsk, igniting outrage around the world. Mike Armstrong explains how Bialiastski has long been a thorn in the side of Belarussian President Alexander Lukashenko, and how Bialiastski's incarceration is a rallying cry for opponents of the country's authoritarian government.

And a South Carolina court has sentenced disgraced lawyer Alex Murdaugh to life in prison for murdering his wife and youngest son, ending one of the most publicized criminal cases in recent history. Jackson Proskow reports on the evidence which sealed his fate.
