Global National: Nov. 4, 2022 | Ontario education workers defy provincial legislation and strike



Published
In our top story: An anxiety-filled weekend lies ahead for Ontario parents, as striking education workers have left many unsure if their children's schools will be open next week. With no end in sight, makeshift childcare options popped up across the region, but they may not be viable if this strike continues to stretch on. Eric Sorensen takes a look at how the province got to this point.

What's next is still unknown, as education workers have said they won't back down, leading many school boards to prepare for the worst — and that means sending kids back to online learning. Queen's Park Bureau Chief Colin D'Mello reports on what could end the strike and how likely those options are.

Also on the education sector — paying off student loans will soon be less of a headache for postsecondary students. Abigail Bimman reports on what the federal government is doing to help and why there are still concerns.

The public inquiry into the invocation of the Emergencies Act continued on Friday, with far-right podcaster Jeremy MacKenzie among those who testified. As David Akin reports, the RCMP believes MacKenzie was behind a dangerous extremist group that helped fuel the protests.

The U.S. midterm elections are less than a week away, and that has sparked concerns about the consequences the results could have on Canadian companies. Jeff Semple reports on what could happen, depending on which party takes Congress.

And back in Canada, new research shows that the population of one of the world's most elusive animals, the wolverine, is rapidly declining in Canada. Heather Yourex-West reports.
