Global National: July 23, 2024 | Jasper National Park wildfire forces thousands to flee

Thousands of people in Alberta are on the move as a wildfire rages through Jasper National Park, one of Canada's most treasured and popular parks. Heather Yourex-West explains what complicated the scramble to escape and what officials are preparing for, while Alissa Thibault checks in on how evacuees are holding up. With multiple high-profile Democrats now endorsing her, U.S. Vice-President Kamala Harris is in full campaign mode to win her party's nomination for the 2024 presidential election. Jackson Proskow looks at Harris' first campaign rally, the money pouring in for her, the enthusiasm for her campaign and how the Republicans are responding to this revamped race for the White House. After several days of relentless pressure to step down, Kimberly Cheatle has resigned as director of the U.S. Secret Service over her agency's failures ahead of the assassination attempt on former U.S. president Donald Trump. As Eric Sorensen reports, there are still no answers about why Trump wasn't better protected. Khaled Hussein, a Canadian citizen and Edmonton gas station worker, has been convicted in London of being a member of a proscribed terrorist organization. Redmond Shannon reports on the terror group Al-Muhajiroun (or ALM), the deadly terror plots it's been linked to and what Hussein told undercover RCMP agents. With Canada's recent population surge being mostly tied to immigration, the federal government has made some policy changes to try to crack down on how people enter Canada. Mackenzie Gray explains how those changes haven't stopped asylum seeker claims from reaching record highs and why those numbers could grow if former U.S. president Donald Trump returns to the White House. Plus, while creating and sustaining a company is tough enough, a Montreal family has weathered wars and recessions to celebrate a century in business. As Mike Armstrong reports, Cansew, the longtime textile maker is being run by a third generation, with a fourth ready to take the reins.
