Nearly one month after the deadly fire at CFB Wainwright that killed four soldiers, a fifth person has now died. The Canadian Armed Forces confirmed that Pte. William Douglas Dal Bianco of the 3rd Battalion of Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry succumbed to his injuries Friday in Ontario, where he had been receiving medical care after the Oct. 17 incident.

U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is suggesting government contractor L3 Harris could be to blame for a communications failure among air traffic control that grounded thousands of flights Friday — ruling out the possibility of a foreign cyber attack. Candice Cole has the latest from Washington.

Airline passengers in Canada have also been caught up in the disruptions, with thousands of flights across the country cancelled or delayed. Nathaniel Dove has more on when Canadians can expect operations to return to normal.

Patients and their families have been seeking answers ever since. Now, the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) says it has found no evidence of a single brain disease among the several hundred people experiencing symptoms. Heidi Petracek has more.
