First, the latest on the massacre at Bondi Beach in Australia. The mass shooting targeted the Jewish community on the first day of Hanukkah.
We speak with Sean Tarek Goodwin, a reporter with ABC News, who was one of the first to arrive on the scene.
Second, a surprise defection on Parliament Hill.
Late last week, just hours after Parliament wrapped for the year, the Liberals welcomed another floor crosser into the party. With 171 seats, they are now just one MP away from holding a majority.
Aaron Wherry is a senior writer with CBC’s Parliamentary bureau.
He’s here to talk about all that, and look back at Prime Minister Carney’s first sitting.
