Private Aidan Goulding's family was only beginning to know him as a young man. At his funeral in Vancouver, his aunt Reagan Goulding described that unfinished relationship as one of the hardest parts of their loss.

The 23-year-old soldier was laid to rest with full military honors on Sunday, according to Canada's Global News. Its November 8 evening broadcast reports that he was among four soldiers killed in last month's fast-moving fire at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright in Alberta. Thirty-nine others were injured, with many still in hospital.

His relatives remember an adventurous young man who found belonging in the Canadian Armed Forces. His mother, Sonia Monk, says: "I love you, Adey. Rest in peace, my bright light." His brother Wylder remembers him as a friend, confidant and hero.

The broadcast then widens its remembrance coverage to Indigenous Veterans Day. Reporter Megan King's account pairs family memories with the discrimination Indigenous soldiers encountered after returning from service. Lyndon Akiwenzie, whose grandparent served in the Second World War, says: "There were many freedoms they fought for they weren't able to actually enjoy after the war ended." Footage from London follows, showing King Charles III at the Cenotaph for Remembrance Sunday.

Other reports cover mourning in Poland after a shooting in Kraków that the broadcaster says killed six people and wounded more than a dozen. Polish-Canadian community representatives discuss the loss. In British Columbia, the bulletin reports a motorist's death and widespread power outages after a windstorm; a separate update says an earthquake in central Japan injured at least 22 people.

The international coverage includes Saudi Arabia's reported interception of Houthi missiles and President Donald Trump's calls for Justice Department investigations into Democrats before congressional control changes hands. An excerpt features Representative Robert Garcia promising aggressive oversight, while Attorney General Todd Blanche says the department would defend Stephen Miller against efforts to pursue him. A brief item reports an internal Nvidia investigation involving concerns about foreign intelligence contact around chief executive Jensen Huang.

In Haiti, Mike Armstrong reports that El Salvador's deployment to recover kidnapped technicians has expanded into a larger operation against gangs. A gang leader's appeal for UN-mediated negotiations features in that account.

The closing features turn to Montreal researchers developing a breath-sampling alternative to nasal swabs, then Oxford University's Canadian hockey connections. Prime Minister Mark Carney and Quebec Premier Paul St-Pierre Plamondon both played goalie there, providing the starting point for a history of the team's maple-leaf identity. The bulletin ends with Diwali celebrations in Surrey and Calgary.
