B.C. election count NDP wins B.C., CRA hack, doctors’ notes, and more

More than a week after people cast their ballots, there is still no winner in B.C.’s election. 

And: The CRA has paid out tens of millions of dollars in bogus refunds after thousands of privacy breaches. Exclusive reporting from CBC's The Fifth Estate and Radio-Canada reveals a string of scams targeting the Canada Revenue Agency, including serious hacks that have been kept hidden… until now.

Also: Got a cold, a migraine, the flu? For many Canadian workers, getting a doctor's note when you're sick is a necessary evil if you want to stay home from work. But the Canadian Medical Association says notes for minor illnesses are a waste of everyone's time, and are hurting the health care system. The CMA wants a ban on employers requiring a doctor's note for short-term illnesses.

Plus: Overwhelmed food banks are taking dramatic steps to make their aid stretch as far as possible, getting rid of GST on new homes, greenhouse gas report, and more.
