- A curious and possibly troubling discovery on the coast of Haida Gwaii last month may offer some insight into current ocean conditions.
A six-foot long swordfish carcass, which is normally found in waters south of B.C., is leaving some scientists to believe heatwaves, along with the El Niño trend, are pointing to troubling realities for marine life.
"I think with climate change and the ocean warming this is going to become an increasingly common thing to happen is to see these unusual creatures washing up," Isabella Morgante from the Institute for the Ocean and Fishers at UBC said.

- Eight orangutans were transported to a safe location after wildfires in Borneo, Indonesia, destroyed the endangered primates’ homes. Since August, the West Kalimantan Natural Resources Conservation Agency and YIARI have rescued 46 orangutans affected by fires.
Indonesia is battling its most intense wildfires in 11 years, primarily on the islands of Sumatra and Borneo, and the government has warned the blazes could continue until November, aggravated by the El Niño weather pattern.
In the first half of 2026, fires burned more than 200,000 hectares in Indonesia and non-governmental organizations estimate fires have burned at least 600,000 more hectares since.
Orangutans are critically endangered species found in the wild only on the Southeast Asian islands of Borneo and Sumatra, with Indonesia home to all three recognized species, according to the World Wildlife Fund. Populations have declined due to deforestation, wildfires and poaching.

“Doctors found a localized nodule in my lung," the pontiff said. "It was detected at a very early stage and is well contained. The doctors believe it is advisable to intervene, so, following their advice, I have decided to undergo surgery to remove it."

- Decision BC: Why seniors matter in this campaign

- Description
- Seniors took centre stage on the campaign trail as the BC Conservatives unveiled a property tax deferment proposal aimed at older voters.
Ben O'Hara-Byrne and Keith Baldrey discuss why seniors remain one of the province's most reliable and engaged voting blocs, how issues like affordability, property taxes and health care resonate with them, and why both parties are paying close attention to their concerns as the election enters a critical phase.
The pair also examine the importance of Surrey as a key battleground, the NDP's latest health-care announcement, new polling that continues to show a close race, and whether Surrey, and a handful of other ridings in Metro Vancouver, could ultimately determine which party forms government.

- A British Columbia small business owner says he was stunned after receiving a UPS invoice for more than $3,700 that contained almost no information about who sent the shipment or where it was headed.
Dave Jackson, owner of Oh My Print Solutions, says repeated attempts to get answers from UPS led nowhere for weeks. He says a company representative eventually told him the shipment originated in China, but no further details were provided about the sender.
The Canadian Federation of Independent Business says it has heard similar complaints from small businesses dealing with UPS's dispute-resolution process. After Consumer Matters Anne Drewa contacted UPS, Jackson says he received a full refund. However, Consumer Matters says UPS did not respond to its request for additional information and it remains unclear who is behind the invoice.

The nationwide strike disrupted public transport and flights, while students raised concerns about rising education costs and overcrowded classrooms.
“We’re struggling too, and we are the future of this country,” said Emilie L’Honneux, a 23-year-old student from Liege.
Police said the main march was peaceful, but separate clashes led officers to use tear gas and water cannons.

- Description
- The US will livestream the Army's upcoming firing squad execution of a gunman who killed 13 people at the Fort Hood military base in 2009, the Pentagon said on Thursday, in what would be an unprecedented broadcast of a U.S. execution.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who championed the decision to execute former Army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan by firing squad, called the move a "no-brainer" during an interview on the Real America's Voice network.
The move prompted criticism from some commuters at a train station in California. One called the plan "disgusting," while another said broadcasting it live would be "inhumane."
The execution is scheduled for Dec. 3 at the same sprawling Texas base where Hasan opened fire with a laser-sighted handgun in a medical facility. It comes amid heightened debate in the US over the death penalty following the botched lethal injection of a Tennessee woman last week.

Former United Nations human rights chief and International Court of Justice (ICC) judge Navi Pillay was given the prestigious award Friday “for her efforts to promote peace and international law.” After this was revealed by the Norwegian Nobel Committee, the Trump administration announced sweeping sanctions against the ICC. In response, Pillay joked she “may share this prize with Trump” – something last year’s winner actually did after pressure from the U.S. president. #NobelPeacePrize #ICC #Trump

- Canadians will decide the future of Canada, not “large tech firms that think they can tell us what to do,” Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Thursday, responding to Elon Musk’s comments that three Canadian provinces “should separate” from Canada.
“The future of Canada will be decided by Canadians, and the priorities of Canadians, the priorities of the people of Quebec,” Carney told reporters in Sherbrooke, Que., on Thursday.
On Friday, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre also weighed-in on Musk’s comments, calling them “silly tweets by people who have no power over what Canadians do.”
Musk, a former adviser to U.S. President Donald Trump, said on his social media platform X that Quebec should separate, as should Alberta and Saskatchewan.

- The countdown is on to the U.S. midterms, which will decide control of Congress. The Democrats are surging, with the Republican Party on the defensive as it continues to slip in the polls.
Then, is President Donald Trump’s latest executive order temporarily approving the use of red-dyed diesel for some vehicles – amid skyrocketing fuel prices – actually going to lower prices at the pumps, or is it simply a tactic to reel dismayed Republicans back in?
Plus, the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize winner has been announced – and it’s not Trump, despite being gung-ho in the belief that he has deserved it since taking office again early last year.
And new lawsuits from various states are dubbing mailed abortion pills a “public nuisance” and a violation of laws. Our Washington correspondent Reggie Cecchini reports on all this.

- Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre announced the Conservatives' "Canadian Steel Plan" in Burlington, Ont., on Thursday, in which he promised to "protect Canadian steel jobs."
The Conservative leader also called out Industry Minister Mélanie Joly for saying she'd sue Stelco over job losses.
"We're calling on the government to follow through and sue Stelco's owner to enforce job guarantees. When Cleveland-Cliffs bought Stelco, it made a binding five-year commitment to maintain unionized employment and retain the vast majority of non-unionized jobs. The Liberals approved the takeover on those terms. (Industry Minister Mélanie Joly) is threatening to sue, but she made the exact same threat to Stellantis a year ago, and she has not followed through on that threat. She never actually went and filed the lawsuit," Poilievre said.
He also took a shot at Carney over his recent comments on immigration.

- After provoking controversy and concern when an artificial intelligence (AI) agent solved a math equation no human has ever been able to solve – OpenAI has done it again – precisely 372 times.
Computer scientist and mathematician Mark Daley says if AI can easily solve problems that humans cannot, in the future it will likely solve much larger problems that humans can’t understand.
Daley says “At some point, there is going to be a loss of understanding. And I'm going to grieve that as a human who wants to understand. But if that breakthrough leads to a new type of drug that cures 80 per cent of cancers, it's okay that I don't understand it.”
As Nathaniel Dove explains, the hesitation about AI goes far beyond math. It's about whether humans are still involved in discovery.

Mark Carney spoke in Sherbrooke, Quebec, on Thursday, saying, “There's over a million households in Canada that still heat with oil, with propane or diesel. These fuels are not just more polluting, they're less efficient. And they're at the mercy of the global markets right now.” Touria Izri walks us through the program and whom it could benefit.
