Donald Trump was sworn in as President of the Us on January 20. From the Russia investigation and the firing of FBI Director James Comey, to the taunting of North Korean President Kim Jong Un and the backlash over his Mulsim ban, it's been a complicated, whirlwind year for U.S. President Donald Trump. 

September 20: Of all the terrible storms this year, Hurricane Maria was the deadliest to strike the Caribbean, with almost 500 deaths in Puerto Rico. Communications were crippled, buildings decimated, and help was slow to come. The disaster was met with a widely criticized disaster relief effort by President Trump. More than a month after the storm, most residents were still without power.

Intense winds of 185 mph made Hurricane Irma the strongest recorded storm to ever exist in the Atlantic, outside the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico. Hundreds of thousands of people evacuated their homes in the Caribbean and southern US. The Category 5 storm left 134 dead, caused damage worth more than $100 billion and was the longest-lived Atlantic hurricane since 2004.

Hurricane Harvey put Houston under water and in despair back in August, leaving at least 82 people dead and causing damages of nearly $200 billion. The Category 4 hurricane also ripped through Louisiana, Barbados and other areas of Texas.

The violent, white supremacist rally in Charlottesville left one woman dead and 35 injured after a car plowed down people who were protesting the "Unite the Right" rally on August 12.  

After more than a year of dating, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their engagement on November 27. She is an American actress, best know for her role on "Suits". 

Trump's war of words with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has been one of the biggest stories of the year. North Korea launched 23 missiles. The rising tensions between the two foes and North Korea's continued development of its nuclear weapons program has many people on both sides of the Pacific fearing a nuclear war.

For the first time in 99 years on August 21, a solar eclipse crossed the US from coast to coast, making for spectacular views of the celestial event of the century. President Donald Trump stared straight into the solar eclipse without protective glasses. (He also looked at it wearing the glasses.)

May 22: A suicide bomber detonated an explosive outside an Ariana Grande concert on May 22. In total, 22 people were killed, and more than 50 were injured, with the youngest victim being 8 years old. Grande later held a concert honoring the victims.

Two uncoordinated attacks struck the heart of London less than 3 months apart. On March 22, attacker Khalid Masood plowed his car into several pedestrians on Westminster Bridge, killing 4, injuring around 50 others. He then took off on foot and stabbed a police officer before being shot by armed forces. On June 3, a van plowed into a crowd of pedestrians on London Bridge, then 3 assailants leaped out and stabbed nearby pedestrians, killing 8 people. 

An ISIS supporter killed 8 people, injuring 12 others, after he plowed down bystanders with a truck on the West Side Highway bike path in Lower Manhattan on October 31. Sayfullo Saipov hopped the curb before running down multiple bikers before he got out of the rented white pickup and shouted "God is Great" in Arabic. He was taken into custody by police.

On October 1, a gunman opened fire from the 32nd floor of a hotel in Las Vegas, killing 59 people and injuring more than 500 more at a country-music concert. It was the deadliest mass shooting in modern US history. The shooter, Stephen Paddock, fired a barrage of bullets from an automatic weapon for 5 minutes, then killed himself.

CTV parliamentary correspondent Kevin Gallagher kicks off the top 10 countdown on Dec. 23, with a report highlighting a year of celebration for Canada -- from the epic C3 expedition across the Arctic to the tens of thousands of revellers who braved grey skies on July 1 for Canada's 150th birthday.

A crazed man with an assault rifle opened fire on a congregation at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, claiming the lives of 26 people, injuring 20 more. The shooter, 26-year-old Devin Kelley, led police on a car chase after fleeing the scene before he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Sexual misconduct allegations against more than 40 high-profile men were set off by an expose from the New York Times on producer Harvey Weinstein. Following the Weinstein scandal, Kevin Spacey was also accused of sexual misconduct. Both men were fired from their respective roles and shunned from Hollywood. Since the Harvey Weinstein story broke in Hollywood, a nationwide convervation about sexual harrassment and assault, and the #MeToo campaign it inspired, became a global one.

A raging fire engulfed a London apartment building, killing 71 people on June 14. The blaze is believed to have started with a refrigerator on an upper floor of the 24-story building. Residents had raised safety concerns for years before about the aluminum cladding used on the outside of the building that aided the fire's quick pace.
