Federal budget crunch; Back-to-work backlash; Jays one-hit wonder?
The federal Liberals are preparing to present their first federal budget under Prime Minister Mark Carney, but they need help from other parties to pass it. David Akin explains what issues each opposition party is weighing, and the questions about whether the Liberals can pass their budget, win a confidence vote, and avoid a snap election during the holiday season. Jillian Piper looks at the promises to boost defence spending, and how that might influence trade talks with U.S. President Donald Trump. And Heidi Petracek looks at what young Canadians are hoping for from the budget. In Alberta, backlash is growing against the provincial government over its use of the notwithstanding clause to end the teachers strike. Heather Yourex-West explains how Alberta's back-to-work bill has spawned a campaign to recall more than a dozen MLAs who supported the legislation. Sudan's crisis is deepening. Redmond Shannon reports on the horrors women are facing, and the warning that history is repeating itself in Darfur. Plus, many Blue Jays fans are still trying to process their team's agonizing World Series loss, and some of them are already wondering what's in store for next season. Eric Sorensen reports on whether Toronto's historic run will prove to be a one-hit wonder.
