Conservatives win majority government in B.C.

David Eby's bet on expanding his NDP majority government in British Columbia - has gone bust. The B.C. Conservatives have won a majority government in Saturday's provincial election. The NDP's seat count has been cut in half, and Eby has now stepped down as party leader. You'll hear more on the results, and why this election was one for the history books. Also: Brave, warm and hilarious - just some of the ways Sergeant Morgan Wong is being remembered. He’s one of four soldiers killed in the tragic fire at CFB Wainwright last weekend. His funeral was held today in Edmonton. And: In the U.S. midterms, there are few issues that don't fall along partisan lines. But for both Republican and Democratic voters, there are two words that get a lot of people's blood boiling: data centres. And the President's support of data centres is looming over a close Senate race in Ohio. Plus: Serbia's Aleksander Vucic concedes defeat in election, the debate over conscription exemptions in Israel, A 93 year old defying assumptions of aging bodies, and more.

David Eby's bet on expanding his NDP majority government in British Columbia - has gone bust. The B.C. Conservatives have won a majority government in Saturday's provincial election. The NDP's seat count has been cut in half, and Eby has now stepped down as party leader. You'll hear more on the results, and why this election was one for the history books. 


Also: Brave, warm and hilarious - just some of the ways Sergeant Morgan Wong is being remembered. He’s one of four soldiers killed in the tragic fire at CFB Wainwright last weekend. His funeral was held today in Edmonton.


And: In the U.S. midterms, there are few issues that don't fall along partisan lines. But for both Republican and Democratic voters, there are two words that get a lot of people's blood boiling: data centres. And the President's support of data centres is looming over a close Senate race in Ohio.


Plus: Serbia's Aleksander Vucic concedes defeat in election, the debate over conscription exemptions in Israel, A 93 year old defying assumptions of aging bodies, and more.
