Winnipeg Regional Health Authority Apologizes For Incorrect Death 

The Winnipeg Regional Health Authority is apologizing once again for accidentally telling a patient's family that their loved one was dead.

Lorna Paisley says she was recovering from a respiratory infection at Victoria General Hospital in July when a unit nurse called her husband to tell him she was dead.

A few minutes later, the nurse realized her error and called Paisley's distraught husband to inform him of the mix up. 

The authority also apologized recently for a mistake in September that led to a nurse incorrectly informing a man that his 100-year-old mother had died.

A Day Full Of Television For Canadian Thanksgiving 

After turkey dinners are cleared off the table tonight, a lot of Canadians may be flipping channels back and forth on their TVs between the Blue Jays game and the U-S presidential debate.

Instead of issuing apologies for a 2005 video where he makes vulgar comments about women, Donald Trump's camp says he's going to attack Bill Clinton.

The town-hall style debate will have Trump and Clinton fielding questions from ABC's Martha Raddatz and CNN's Anderson Cooper as well as from undecided voters in the audience.  

Firefighters across the province will be reminding residents the importance of fire safety through a provincial campaign.
