Canadians return from Hantavirus cruise, National pharmacare program stalled, Palestinians in the West Bank struggle to find work, and more.

The MV Hondius, the cruise ship at the centre of a Hantavirus outbreak, has anchored off the coast of Spain's Canary Islands. Dozens of passengers and crew have disembarked from the ship. That includes four Canadians - who are being flown to British Columbia where they'll self isolate. Meanwhile, health authorities from two dozen countries are now working to repatriate the rest of the ship's passengers while trying to ensure the virus doesn't spread. Also: Advocates are calling on the federal government to make its pharmacare program available to all Canadians. The program is only accessible to residents of three provinces and one territory, after the federal government made deals with them. And even though Ottawa says its committed to pharmacare, it's also saying the deals currently in place have expiration dates.And: Some Palestinians from the West Bank are taking desperate measures to find work. Following the October 7th attacks, Israel cancelled more than one hundred thousand permits that allowed Palestinians to work there. Israel's government calls it a security measure - and is now bringing in tens of thousands of foreign workers to fill the labour gap. Plus: U.S. Iran war update, The first Venice Bienalle curated by an African woman, Celebrating a hero of the Second World War who lived in Vancouver, and more
