Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is headed back to Canada after a 10-day overseas trip attending a series of summits, where tension between the Canadian and the Chinese governments was in focus.

In Ontario, parents and students have been anxiously waiting to find out if schools will be open tomorrow. The union representing 55,000 education workers and the provincial government had until 5 p.m. eastern today to negotiate a deal to stop a strike — and they managed to reach a deal. Mike Drolet has more.
The Emergencies Act Inquiry is heading into the home stretch. For the past few weeks, more than 60 witnesses have testified, offering their thoughts on whether the federal government overstepped by invoking the act to stop the convoy protests that crippled the nation's capital. Global’s chief political correspondent David Akin looks at how the reviews have been mixed and tells us who will be on the hot seat next.
In the world of sports, the 2022 FIFA World Cup has finally kicked off in Qatar with much excitement — though not everyone felt the same way. The controversial host nation has been widely condemned for its poor human rights records and its harsh laws against LGBTQ+ members.

Farah Nasser speaks with author Joshua Kloke as the Canadian men’s soccer team makes its first appearance at the World Cup in more than 30 years.
And finally, it's been a busy weekend for U.S. President Joe Biden — but not because of work. Today, his family got together to celebrate a milestone birthday. Biden is now the first sitting U.S. president to turn 80. As Mike Armstrong reports, critics wonder if the oldest commander-in-chief might be too old.
