In tonight’s top story: Ferocious floodwaters in Libya have killed more than 11,000 people, and there are fears up that number will just keep soaring. Redmond Shannon reports on the scale of the destruction, the foreign aid slowly starting to trickle in and what the United Nations says could have saved thousands of lives.
Also, Blair Evan Donnelly, the man who allegedly stabbed three people in Vancouver, was given an unescorted day pass from the Forensic Psychiatric Hospital in Coquitlam, B.C., despite the British Columbia Review Board finding he posed a significant threat to the public. Neetu Garcha reports on the board's decision from April, the new details about Donnelly's troubled history and how hospital staff once failed to properly supervise him.
Additionally, the federal government is now delivering on an eight-year-old old promise to remove GST from the construction of new rental buildings. Mackenzie Gray reports on the history of the pledge and how finally implementing it could affect the housing market and the Liberals' political fortunes.
Over in New Brunswick, a recycling facility along Saint John’s waterfront has erupted in flames. Nathalie Sturgeon reports on why neighbours are worried, and the warning to the entire city.
Furthermore, talks have stalled between the United Auto Workers (UAW) and Detroit's "Big Three" automakers — Ford, General Motors and Stellantis — as 146,000 employees prepare to walk off the job. Eric Sorensen explains what the union is demanding and how the American job action could affect Canada's autoworkers and automotive industry.
About 100 Canadians are suspected of leaving Canada to join the so-called Islamic State (ISIS). Around 20 are women, and most of them haven't faced criminal charges, unlike their male counterparts. Jeff Semple explains why.
Lastly, does life outside of Earth actually exist? NASA is now investigating unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), perhaps better known as unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and has released a first report on a study into hundreds of UAP sightings. Jackson Proskow has the results and how the space agency plans to share information without fuelling speculation.
