"If we want to build this country, it has to be built with First Nations," Assembly of First Nations National Chief Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak says ahead of an Ottawa gathering with Prime Minister Mark Carney and provincial premiers.

Canada's Global News places that meeting alongside British Columbia's change of government in its October 25 national bulletin. Reporter Jillian Piper examines the gathering and the absence of several provincial leaders, while the election raises questions about regional agreements with First Nations.

The broadcast opens with the BC Conservatives' majority victory under premier-designate Lorne Doerkson, who became party leader only weeks before the vote. "We are so happy to get this strong a mandate from British Columbians," he says. Outgoing premier David Eby announces that he will resign both as premier and as leader of the BC New Democratic Party.

The domestic coverage then turns to Edmonton, where a funeral is held for Sgt. Morgan Wong, one of four Canadian soldiers the report says were killed in a wildfire incident at CFB Wainwright. His sister, Megan Wong, remembers a loyal friend who made sure those close to him were cared for.

In Montreal, the bulletin reports that convicted murderer Jeffrey Ewert's conditional release to attend McGill University's law school has been suspended following public objections and safety concerns. Constitutional lawyer Julius Grey explains the rehabilitative purpose of allowing him to resume life outside custody. A separate rescue report describes the evacuation of 150 students after a chartered tour boat ran aground off North Vancouver.

Overseas, Candace Cole examines restrictions and outages affecting Ukraine's use of the Starlink and Starshield satellite networks. Musk accuses Ukraine of violating Starlink's terms of service, which the Ukrainian government denies. US Representative Jason Crow questions how an unelected private citizen can exercise such substantial control over national security.

Brief coverage of Brazil's presidential runoff between Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro is followed by Eric Sorensen's examination of the US midterms. Trump and Obama are campaigning, with seven key Senate contests central to the report's account of the struggle for congressional control.

The closing feature visits Toronto's St. Michael's Hospital, where doctors describe a two-stage treatment for atrial fibrillation. It combines robotic surgery with catheter-based ablation around the pulmonary veins. Patient Jon Davies has undergone the first stage and is awaiting the second.
