After days of planning, measuring, and rounding up resources, crews in Baltimore begun the painstaking task of cutting and lifting thousands of tons worth of twisted steel from the city's inner harbour on Friday. More than 370 workers from across the country are embarking on what's expected to be a months-long cleanup effort following Tuesday's deadly crash. Joel Senick has the details in tonight's top story.
The Canadian government addressed pharmacare on Friday as part of their pre-budget, cross country tour of announcements targeting younger citizens. The first phase of the pharmacare plan involves providing contraception and diabetes medication to Canadians in need, with Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland confirming it will be included in the liberal budget. Abigail Bimman looks at the feds’ fresh approach to re-engage younger voters.
With summer approaching, Canadians are hammering out travel plans while trying to stay on budget. But for those looking for a more affordable airline, they won't have much choice. Flair Airlines is the last low-cost carrier operating in Canada, but many wonder whether it can stay afloat. Sean Previl reports.
Earlier this week, a Calgary judge ruled a 27-year-old woman should have access to medical assistance in dying (MAID), despite her father's attempt to block her request. The father argued she is not competent to make the decision to take her own life. But as Carolyn Kury de Castillo reports, a health law expert says the case could set a precedent for other medical procedures.
As Sudan remains in the grips of a civil conflict, its military is fighting a para-military faction wanting to take over. Food is in short supply and much of the country is either in crisis mode, or a state of emergency. Mackenzie Gray reports on the struggle to reunite Sudanese with their loved ones in Canada.
And, if you've been out looking for some special Easter treats, you've likely already noticed that the cost of chocolate has skyrocketed. Cocoa prices have more than tripled in the last year, putting pressure on chocolate makers globally. Mike Drolet has the latest.
