A dual Canadian-American citizen – imprisoned in Russia for years – is on the way home. Paul Whelan is among 24 people freed this morning, in what's being called the largest and most complex prisoner swap in history. And: Israel has announced the death of another Hamas leader. It’s the third killing of a prominent militant we've learned about in as many days. The question now... how the deaths may affect ceasefire negotiations. Also: Back to school... already? Some schools in Canada have what’s called a balanced calendar: less time off during warmer months, but parents and teachers say it helps with the "summer slide" learning loss. And we’ll have an update on wildlife in Jasper National Park, the woes of booksellers along the Seine, and more.
