Global National: April 27, 2024 | Campus protests rage on amid Israel-Hamas conflict
As anti-war protesters continue their demands for an end to the Israel-Hamas conflict, students are vowing to maintain their fight across post-secondary campuses and refusing to scale back. In the U.S., police are upping their presence, arresting protesters and dismantling encampments as House Speaker Mike Johnson calls on President Biden to send in the National Guard. Neetu Garcha has the latest on the ever-expanding campus protests in tonight’s top story. Up north, Canadian consumers fed up with the high cost of groceries are gearing up to send a message with their wallets. A planned boycott of Loblaw and its affiliated stores is gaining traction, while a petition calling for an investigation into the company for alleged profiteering is nearing 100,000 signatures. Abigail Bimman reports on the frustration and the planned action. Every year in Canada, there are people who desperately need a life-saving organ transplant but can't get one. That wait can be excruciating, and hundreds die while waiting for an organ. Now, in a bid to increase organ donations and save lives, the province of Alberta has launched a new awareness campaign. Heather Yourex-West reports. Residents and businesses in Winnipeg's cottage country are worried that Parks Canada will close access to a popular lake this spring and summer. The concern comes in response to zebra mussels, an invasive species that are now, apparently, the farthest west they've ever reached in Canada. Melissa Ridgen has the details. Heading to Europe? You may have to pay up. With 2024 forecasted to be a record-breaking year for air travel, some of the world's most popular tourist destinations are introducing paywall tactics. Redmond Shannon takes us to Venice, where in a global first, the city has begun charging day-trippers for their visit, as tensions grow over fears of so-called "over-tourism.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca/video/10454386/columbia-universitys-senate-votes-to-investigate-schools-leadership-on-gaza-protests/ Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Like Global News on Facebook HERE: http://bit.ly/255GMJQ Follow Global News on Twitter HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on Instagram HERE: https://bit.ly/2QZaZIB #GlobalNews #GlobalNational #IsraelHamasConflict
