Charles Adler is our special guest to chat about the craziness that was the democratic debate, and more.
Andrew Scheer is resigning as Conservative Party leader. He told the House of Commons this is the best decision for the party. He told the House that alongside his friends in the Conservative caucus, they have accomplished a lot on both the government and Opposition side of the benches -- and most importantly, he says they've kept the party united and strong. Mercedes Stephenson is the Ottawa Bureau Chief for Global News and Host of The West Block. She broke the story. Guest: Charles Adler Host, Charles Adler Tonight
Chapter 1
It was a four-week Alberta election campaign that some described as the most divisive in recent memory. And it all comes to an end tonight. It's election day in Alberta and voters will finally find out who will lead the province for the next four years. Polls in the province are open until 7pm Pacific Time, and results are expected to start trickling in shortly after the polls close. Global News will have comprehensive coverage across all platforms: online, on TV and on Charles Adler Tonight and the Shift with Drex. Guest: David Akin Chief Political Correspondent, Global News

It's election day in Alberta and voters will finally find out who will lead the province for the next four years. Polls in the province are open until 7pm Pacific Time, and results are expected to start trickling in shortly after the polls close. Global News will have comprehensive coverage across all platforms: online, on TV and on Charles Adler Tonight and the Shift with Drex. Let's find out what the mood is like in Edmonton this morning. A few moments ago, I spoke with Emma Graney, the legislative reporter for the Edmonton Journal. Guest: Emma Graney Legislative reporter for the Edmonton Journal
Chapter 1 Hot question of the day Have you returned your proportional representation ballot to Elections BC? Yes, mailed it in No, waiting until after debate What ballot? Chapter 2 Horgan VS. Wilkinson: Leaders debate proportional representation tonight at 7:00pm Tonight's the night! Premier John Horgan and Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson are set to square off tonight in a radio and television debate over electoral reform. It starts at 7pm on CKNW and Global Television. This comes as the referendum on Proportional Representative continues, but just 1% of the ballots have been returned so far. Ballots are due November 30th. CKNW Contributor Niki Reitmayer explored the proportional representation options on the ballot. Chapter 3 UBC researchers say our seafood is being caught by slaves Researchers at UBC have found that some of the seafood we enjoy in Canada - was caught by slaves. And the problem is disguised, because that fish gets mixed in with more ethically-sourced seafood before it enters the supply chain - a sort of ‘seafood laundering', so to speak. Guest: Dr. Daniel Pauly Principal Investigator of the Sea Around Us initiative at UBC Chapter 4 Conservative leader Andrew Scheer responds to questions about Clement's resignation after sextortion case Conservative leader Andrew Scheer was asked if there was there a specific allegation that lead to Clement's resignation from caucus, or was it due to all the social media chatter after Clement admitted to sending explicit pictures and video of himself to who he assumed was a consenting adult? Within the last half hour, Clement issued a letter of apology to constituents which revealed there was more than one incident in question. How does Scheer reassure the public that the Conservative Party had no prior to knowledge that this type of behaviour from Clement had occured? Scheer was then asked how he planned to move the Conservative Party forward after such a n embarrassing scandal? Will Scheer have to set boundaries for his party members about what is and what is not appropriate? In his letter to constituents, Clement revealed that he had notified Ontario police in the summer about a similar incident. Scheer was then asked if he had received assurances from Clement that he hasn't been compromised in his work between then and now? Finally, Scheer was asked who sought the RCMP to conduct an investigation? Was it Scheer? Was it Clement? Or was it the Prime Minister? Chapter 5 A Dozen Dead In California Mass Shooting A gunman stormed a nightclub in Thousand Oaks, about 65kms west of Los Angeles late last night, opening fire and killing 12 people, including a police sergeant, before being found dead himself. The ‘Borderline Bar & Grill' was hosting a students' country night when gunfire rang out. Ventura County Sheriff Geoff Dean explains what confronted him when he arrived on scene: Sergeant Ron Healus - a 29 year veteran of the force was killed. He was on the verge of retirement. While this tragedy has come on the eve of Sheriff Dean's final day on the job. Authorities have identified the suspect in a mass shooting at a Southern California bar as 28-year-old former Marine Ian David Long. Ventura County Sheriff Geoff Dean says Long is believed to have killed himself late Wednesday at the Borderline Bar and Grill in the city of Thousand Oaks. NBC Correspondent Carter Evans discussed who Ian Long was, and what interaction the police had with him prior to the mass shooting. Chapter 6 Rodney Stafford speaks to CKNW The father of murdered eight-year-old Tori Stafford says her killer, Terri-Lynne McClintic, is back behind bars.
