>>> ON THIS THURSDAY NIGHT, TWO
BIG MOVES FROM DONALD TRUMP
BRING HIM CLOSER THAN EVER TO
HIS HARD LINE CAMPAIGN RHETORIC.
NEW TARIFFS AIMED AT CHINA BRING
CONCERNS OF A POSSIBLE GLOBAL
TRADE WAR.
>>> A NEWLY NAMED NATIONAL
SECURITY ADVISER BRINGS FEARS AS
TO WHAT HE IS LISTENING TO.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN AND SHOULD
CANADIANS BE WORRIED.
>>> A NOVA SCOTIA MAN WITH
CANCER WAS TURNED AWAY FROM THE
ER FOUR TIMES.
>>> AND DAVID COMMONS SITS DOWN
WITH THE BARENAKED LADIES.
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
>>> LET TRUMP BE TRUMP MIGHT BE
THE U.S. PRESIDENT'S NEW MESSAGE
TO FRIENDS AND ENEMIES ALIKE.
UNLEASHING CAMPAIGN IDEAS IN
POLICY AND ACTION.
TODAY, THAT STARTED WITH $60
BILLION IN NEW TARIFFS AGAINST
CHINA. IT WILL RESPOND SOON.
THE STOCK MARKET DID SO RIGHT
AWAY.
CHECK IT OUT.
FEARS OF CHINESE RETALIATION
FUELED A DROP ON WORLD MARKETS.
THE DOW DROPPED MORE THAN 700
POINTS.
THAT'S ABOUT 3%.
THE TSX SUFFERED THE WORST DAY
SINCE 2016 FALLING 275 POINTS,
NEARLY 2%.
AND AS LYNDSAY DUNCOMBE TELLS
US, THAT COULD BE JUST THE
BEGINNING.
>> THE FIRST OF MANY.
>> Reporter: TODAY'S TARIFF
ANNOUNCEMENT IS ANOTHER
PROTECTIONIST MOVE AGAINST CHINA
THREATENING TO DISRUPT THE WORLD
ECONOMY.
>> THESE TARIFFS POSE A SERIOUS
RISK TO OUR ECONOMY.
THEY COULD TRIGGER A TRADE WAR.
THEY MAY DAMAGE OUR RELATIONS
WITH KEY ALLIES.
>> Reporter: A MONTH-LONG
INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT CHINA
VIOLATES AMERICAN INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS AND STEALS TRADE
SECRETS THROUGH CYBER HACKING.
BUT TO REMEDY THAT THROUGH
TARIFFS IS WIDELY EXPECTED TO
TRIGGER CHINESE RETALIATION.
>> I DON'T THINK THEY CAN LET IT
GO.
I MEAN, JUST LOOKING AT THE
DOMESTIC POLITICS, IT WILL BE
SHOWING THE WEAKNESS TO JUST LET
IT GO.
>> Reporter: FARMERS ARE
ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE.
MANY AMERICAN DROPS ARE EXPORTED
TO CHINA.
IF CHINA RETALIATES WITH
TARIFFS.
PROFITS WOULD DISAPPEAR.
WITHOUT CHINESE ACTION, U.S.
CONSUMERS COULD GET HIT.
ALL OF A SUDDEN, NOT TO CHEAP.
THE RETAIL INDUSTRY LEADERS
ASSOCIATION WHICH REPRESENTS
TARGET, WAL-MART, AND COSTCO
WARN THE WHITE HOUSE THE TARIFFS
MAY BE CHARGED AT CHINA, BUT IT
WILL BE BILLED TO AMERICAN
CONSUMERS WHO'LL PAY FOR AT THE
CHECKOUT FOR THE ITEMS THEY STOP
FOR EVERY DAY.
MORE EVIDENCE TRUMP'S TARGET IS
CHINA.
THE U.S. GRANTED MORE EXCEPTIONS
TO THE STEEL AND ALUMINUM
TARIFFS.
THEY WILL NO LONGER APPLY TO THE
OUR OLYMPIAN UNION -- EUROPEAN
UNION.
THEY WILL STILL APPLY TO CHINA.
>> CHINA'S UNFAIR BEHAVIOUR.
>> Reporter: NO ONE SHOULD BE
SURPRISED.
>> IT'S PROBABLY ONE OF THE
REASONS I WAS ELECTED, MAYBE ONE
OF THE REASON MAINS.
>> Reporter: THESE AREN'T
IMMEDIATE.
THE U.S. HAS 15 DAYS TO ANNOUNCE
THE TARGETED INDUSTRIES FOLLOWED
BY PUBLIC COMMENT LEAVING TIME
TO NEGOTIATE WITH CHINA.
LYNDSAY DUNCOMBE, CBC NEWS,
WASHINGTON.
>>> OUR ASIA CORRESPONDENT IS
TRACKING COMMENTS.
WHAT ARE YOU HEARING SO FAR?
>> Reporter: WELL, ROSIE, FOR
SEVERAL DAYS NOW, CHINA HAS BEEN
RAMPING UP ITS RESPONSE SAYING
IT DOES NOT WANT A TRADE WAR.
IT N. ANOTHER ERA, IT MAY WELL
WANT TO RESOLVE THIS
DIPLOMATCLY.
THAT WOULD BE THE FIRST CHOICE.
AFTER ALL, IT BENEFITS FROM GOOD
ACCESS TO THE U.S. MARKET.
CHINA IS IN A CONFIDENT MOVE.
THE PRESIDENT GAVE A SPEECH TO
THE NATIONAL CONGRESS, NATIONAL
PEOPLE'S CONGRESS SAY THAT CHINA
WOULD NOT BACK DOWN FOR ANYBODY.
ALL OF THIS IS NOT LOOKING GOOD
AND THINGS COULD GET TOUGHER AT
THIS END OF THE SCALE.
WE DID HEAR SOME REPORTS TODAY
OF EXTRA TARIFFS BEING IMPOSED
ON AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS,
ALUMINUM OR SOME OF THE OTHER
THINGS THAT TRUMP HAS DONE OVER
THE PAST DAYS, BUT WE ARE ALSO
HEARING THAT THIS IS GOING TO
RAMP UP.
IF THAT DOES HAPPEN, WE ARE INTO
A TRADE WAR.
>> OKAY.
THANK YOU.
>>> LET'S SWITCH THE FOCUS BACK
HERE AT HOME TO CANADA.
CHINA ASK THIS COUNTRY'S LARGEST
TRADING PARTNER AFTER THE UNITED
STATES.
COULD THERE BE CONSEQUENCES FOR
THE CANADIAN ECONOMY.
KATIE SIMPSON IS FOLLOWING THAT
PART OF THE STORY TONIGHT.
KATIE, HOW WILL THE PRESIDENT'S
TARIFFS IMPACT THIS COUNTRY.
>> Reporter: CANADIAN INVESTORS
WILL FEEL THE IMMEDIATE IMPACT
IN THE SHORT-TERM.
LOOMING TRADE WAR IS NOT GOOD
FOR MARKETS.
IF SHOPPERS THINK THE DISPUTE
WOULD LEAD TO LOWER PRICES FOR
CANADIANS, EXPERTS SAY THAT'S
NOT LIKELY.
>> SO WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT
CHEAP CONSUMER GOODS THAT YOU
FIND IN WAL-MART OR CANADIAN
TIES.
>> Reporter: THIS UNIVERSITY OF
TORONTO PROFESSOR SAYS DONALD
TRUMP IS LIKELY TO TARGET
CHINESE ROBOTICS AND ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE WITH HIS TARIFFS.
SO CHINA WILL NOT NEED TO FIND
NEW MARKETS FOR EVERYDAY ITEMS,
INCLUDING CLOTHES AND SHOES, THE
KINDS OF PRODUCTS BOTH AMERICANS
AND CANADIANS ARE ALREADY
BUYING.
>> WE ARE REALLY TALKING ABOUT
HIGH TECH PRODUCTS THAT ARE
NOT -- THAT ARE NOT GOING TO BE
EASILY DUMPED ON THE FOREIGN
MARKETS.
WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT CARS OR
ANY CONSUMER DURABLES.
>> Reporter: THIS MEANS FOR
CANADIAN CONSUMERS FOR NOW, IT
SHOULD BE THE STATUS QUO AT THE
SHOPPING MALL.
>> OF COURSE, KATIE, WHAT YOU'VE
BEEN COVERING LATELY, NAFTA
NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE UNITED
STATES, BUT CANADA IS ALSO
TRYING TO GET FREE TRADE TALKS
STARTED WITH CHINA.
WHAT DO COULD ALL THIS MEAN FOR
CANADA.
>> Reporter: IT MEANS THE
BALANCE THAT THE PRIME MINISTER
IS GOING TO HAVE TO TRY TO
NAVIGATE.
>> WE KNOW IF WE CAN ESTABLISH A
CLEAR SET OF RULES AND FRAMEWORK
AROUND AN AGREEMENT WITH CHINA,
THEN CANADIANS WILL BENEFIT.
BUT WE ARE TAKING OUR TIME ON
THAT.
>> Reporter: JUSTIN TRUDEAU
WANTS TO CONTINUE EXPLORING THE
POSSIBILITY OF FREE TRADE TALKS
WITH CHINA.
BUT THE OPTICS OF GETTING CLOSER
WITH BEIJING COULD POSE A
CHALLENGE FOR TRUDEAU.
REMEMBER, TO AVOID TARIFFS ON
CANADIAN STEEL, HE HAD TO GO OUT
OF HIS WAY TO CONVINCE THE
PRESIDENT CHINA WAS NOT DUMPING
CHEAP STEEL INTO CANADA AND
ENDING UP IN THE U.S.
>> WHEN A TRADE WAR GETS KICKED
OFF, THESE THINGS CAN SPIRAL OUT
OF CONTROL QUICKLY.
THE BEST MOVE FOR CANADA IS
MAINTAIN A RELATIONSHIP WITH
BOTH COUNTRIES.
>> Reporter: ANOTHER PROBLEM
TRUDEAU COULD FACE HAS TO DO
WITH SECURITY.
IF THE U.S. THINKS CANADA ISN'T
TAKING THE THREAT OF CHINA
SERIOUSLY AND WE DO KNOW THERE
ARE ALREADY BIG CONCERNS AROUND
THAT, IT COULD BE ANOTHER
IRRITANT IN THIS DYNAMIC OF
CANADA, CHINA, THE U.S.
>> WHO KNEW TRADE WOULD BE SO
INTERESTING.
THANK YOU.
>>> AFTER THAT TARIFF
ANNOUNCEMENT, THE U.S. PRESIDENT
MADE ANOTHER MOVE IN HIS ON
GOING EFFORT TO CLEAN HOUSE IN
THE WHITE HOUSE.
REPLACING MODERATING VOICES WITH
HARDLINERS, THE LATEST ONE H.R.
McMASTER OUT AS NATIONAL
SECURITY ADVISER AND JOHN BOLTON
IS IN.
IT PILES ON TO TWO OTHER RECENT
HIGH PROFILE DEPARTURES, BOTH
SHOWN THE DOOR.
KEITH IS HERE TO WALK US THROUGH
IT.
FIRST, KEITH, WHO IS JOHN
BOLTON?
>> Reporter: WELL, JOHN BOLTON
MOST RECENTLY WORKED FOR FOX
NEWS.
HE HAS ACTUALLY A LENGTHY CAREER
AS A FOREIGN POLICY DIPLOMAT
HERE IN WASHINGTON THAT
CULMINATED WITH HIS TIME AS THE
AMBASSADOR TO THE UNITED NATIONS
FOR THE U.S. UNDER THE GEORGE W.
BUSH ADMINISTRATION.
HE WAS A STRONG SUPPORTER OF THE
INVASION OF IRAQ WHICH IS
INTERESTING BECAUSE AS YOU KNOW,
DONALD TRUMP HAS SAID MANY TIMES
THAT HE FIERCELY OPPOSED THAT
IRAQ INVASION.
SO IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE
HOW THEY RECONCILE THAT.
BUT BOLT ON IS ALSO VERY HAWKISH
ON THINGS SUCH AS THE NUCLEAR
DEAR WITH IRAN THAT WAS SIGNED
UNDER THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION
AND VERY HAWKISH ON THE THREAT
OF NUCLEAR ARMAMENT IN NORTH
KOREA.
HE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN DIPLOMACY.
HE THINKS THE ONLY THING IS A
MILL CARE SOLUTION.
>> HOW IS THIS LIKELY TO PLAY
OUT?
YOU LOOK AT THE TIMING.
I MEAN, YOU HAVE THE UPCOMING
PLANNED FACE-TO-FACE MEETING
BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND KIM
JONG-UN OF NORTH KOREA.
>> YOU HAVE TO WONDER WHAT KIM
IS THINKING AS HE LOOKS AT THESE
THINGS HAPPENING.
MARCH IS TURNING OUT TO BE THE
MONTH OF TRANSFORMATION OF THE
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION.
THE ENTIRE PERSONALITY OF THE
GOVERNMENT SEEMS TO BE CHANGING.
YOU MENTIONED THE DEPARTURES OF
TILLERSON AND COHN.
THEY REPLACED BY PEOPLE WHO ARE,
YOU KNOW, MORE EXTREME IN THEIR
VIEWS ABOUT ECONOMIC POLICY,
TRADE POLICY, FOREIGN POLICY,
AND THE THING THAT OFTEN THEY
HAVE IN COMMON IS THAT THEY ARE
TV HOSTS AND ANALYSTSES WHO TALK
ABOUT ECONOMICS, FOREIGN POLICY,
AND TRADE POLICY.
AS WE KNOW, DONALD TRUMP
REPORTEDLY GETS A LOT OF HIS
INFORMATION FROM TELEVISION.
>> THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU.
>>> NOW TO THE LATEST
DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FACEBOOK
CONTROVERSY.
>> ANDREW, MARK ZUCKERBERG
THOUGHT BREAKING HIS SILENCE
WOULD STOP THE BLEEDING.
HE WAS WRONG.
FACEBOOK STOCKS DIPPED ANOTHER
2.7% TODAY BRINGING ITS TOTAL
LOSSES TO $59 BILLION U.S. SINCE
LAST WEEKEND WHEN THE PRIVACY
BEACH INVOLVING CAM BRIDGE -- CAMBRIDGE
ANALYTICA CAME TO LIGHT.
THEY ACKNOWLEDGE PROBLEMS MANY
AGAIN TODAY, THEY PROMISED
CHANGE EVEN IF IT MEANS
GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT TO MEAN
YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION IS
PROTECTED.
>> Reporter: HOW SECURE YOUR
PERSONAL INFORMATION IS ON
SOCIAL MEDIA NETWORKS
INCREASINGLY DEPENDS ON WHERE IN
THE WORLD YOU LIVE.
THE FACEBOOK BREACH DID LEAD
CANADA'S PRIVACY COMMISSIONER TO
LAUNCH AN INVESTIGATION, BUT
IT'S NOT CLEAR WHAT, IF
ANYTHING, THE CONSEQUENCE WILL
BE.
TODAY, THE PRIME MINISTER SEEMED
TO PUT THE ONUS TO PROTECT
PRIVACY ON SOCIAL MEDIA
COMPANIES.
>> WHAT WE NEED IS FOR THOSE
COMPANIES TO ASSUME THE
RESPONSIBILITIES THAT COME WITH
THAT POWER.
>> Reporter: LEGISLATURES IN THE
EUROPEAN UNION ARE NOT LEAVING
IT UP TO THE COMPANIES.
A NEW LAW CALLED THE GENERAL
DATA PROTECTION REGULATION COMES
INTO FORCE AT THE END OF MAY.
THE NEW REGULATIONS WILL APPLY
TO ANY COMPANY OPERATING FROM
ANY COUNTRY, INCLUDING FACEBOOK,
IF IT HANDLES PERSONAL
INFORMATION OF EU CITIZENS.
COMPANIES WILL NEED CLEAR
CONSENT TO COLLECT THEIR DATA,
EXPLAINING HOW IT WILL BE USED
AND FOR HOW LONG AS WELL AS
ALLOWING USERS TO EASILY
WITHDRAW CONSENT.
COMPANIES WILL HAVE TO GIVE
NOTIFICATION OF ANY DATA
BREACHES WITHIN 72 HOURS.
AND COMPANIES FAILING TO COMPLY
FACE STIFF PENALTIES UP TO 20
MILLION EUROS, $32 MILLION, OR
4% OF THEIR GLOBAL REVENUE,
WHICHEVER IS HIGHER.
THE REGULATIONS LOOK LIKE A GOOD
TEMPLATE FOR CANADA AND THE U.S.
TO FOLLOW SAYS THIS CULTURE AND
TECHNOLOGY PROFESSOR.
>> I THINK THERE NEEDS TO BE A
REAL HARD LOOK AT WHAT KINDS OF
DATA THESE COMPANIES ARE
COLLECTINGTION, EXACTLY HOW IT'S
BEING USED, HOW IT CAN BE A
POTENTIAL HARM.
>> Reporter: DURING HIS
INTERVIEW ON CNN, EVEN THE
FACEBOOK CEO SAID REGULATION IN
A BE NEEDED.
>> WHAT IS THE RIGHT REGULATION
RATHER THAN YES OR NO IT SHOULD
BE REGULATED.
>> Reporter: IN THE EU, THAT'S
BEEN DECIDED.
THE QUESTION NOW IS WHETHER ITS
REGULATIONS WILL BE LIKED BY
OTHER COUNTRIES, TOO.
RON ALCOHOLS, CBC -- CHARLES,
CBC NEWS, TORONTO.
>>> A LAWYER HAS BEEN PUSHING
FOR THOSE SINCE 2011 AFTER HE
ASKED FACEBOOK FOR ALL THE DATA
THEY HAD ON HIM AND GOT A PRETTY
SURPRISING ANSWER.
FACEBOOK GAVE HIM A CD WITH 1200
FILES ON IT.
IT HAD KEPT RECORDS OF THE IP
ADDRESSES OF EVERY COMPUTER HE
EVER USED TO ACCESS FACEBOOK, A
FULL HISTORY OF HIS MESSAGES AND
CHATS, HIS STATUS UPDATES, HIS
WALL POSTS, AND EVEN E-MAIL
ADDRESSES FROM HIS FRIENDS
ADDRESS BOOKS.
HE SINCE BECAME A PRIVACY
ACTIVIST AND A FOUNDER OF EUROPE
VERSUS PROBLEM.
SO TONIGHT, MAX SHREM TOLD US IF
HE WERE TO ASK FOR THAT
INFORMATION RIGHT NOW, THAT CD
WOULD BE SIGNIFICANTLY CHARGER.
THEY COLLECT EVEN MORE DATA NOW.
AS FOR MARK ZUCKERBERG, HE SEEMS
WILLING, AS YOU HEARD, TO
CONSIDER REGULATION, BUT HOW
REAL IS THAT?
>> THERE ARE THINGS LIKE AD
TRANSPARENCY THAT I WOULD LOVE
TO SEE.
[*]
>> ZUCKERBERG WAS TALKING ABOUT
BIPARTISAN BILL THAT'S BEING
CONSIDERED IN THE U.S. CONGRESS.
THE HONEST ADS ACT, IT WAS
INTRODUCED LAST YEAR AND WOULD
REQUIRE DIGITAL COMPANIES TO
DISCLOSE WHO PURCHASES POLITICAL
ADS.
>> IF YOU LOOK AT HOW MUCH
REGULATION THERE IS AROUND
ADVERTISING ON TV AND PRINT,
IT'S NOT CLEAR WHY THERE SHOULD
BE LESS ON THE INTERNET.
>> THAT SOUNDS JUST A LITTLE ODD
FOR THOSE WHO FOLLOWED
FACEBOOK'S ORIGINAL PUSH FOR
THAT LOOPHOLE.
>> FACEBOOK WENT TO THE FEDERAL
ELECTION COMMISSION AND ASKED
FOR AN EXEMPTION FROM EXISTING
DISCLAIMER REQUIREMENTS.
THEY ACTIVELY FOUGHT AGAINST THE
APPLICATION OF EXISTING
TRANSPARENCY REQUIREMENTS TO
DIGITAL POLITICAL ADS.
THEY WERE SUCCESSFUL.
>> MEANWHILE, THE HONEST ADS ACT
HAS BEEN DEAD IN THE WATER,
THANKS AT LEAST IN PART TO
FACEBOOK.
>> MARK ZUCKERBERG IS SAYING ONE
THING PUBLICLY WHILE HIS ARMY IS
DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENTLY
BEHIND THE SCENES IN THE HALLS
OF CONGRESS.
>> THE BILL SO FAR HAS THE
SUPPORT OF JUST 18 U.S.
SENATORS.
>>> LET'S TURN TO A STORY THAT
WILL RESONATE IN COMMUNITIES
ACROSS CANADA.
IMAGINE YOU ARRIVE AT THE
EMERGENCY ROOM.
YOU'RE DESPERATE, DYING, BUT YOU
AREN'T GETTING THE MEDICAL
ATTENTION YOU NEED.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
WELL, DAVID DOUCET DECIDED TO
LEAVE AND CALL 911.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
IT WORKED.
>> Reporter: AT 52 YEARS OLD,
DAVE DOUCET IS ROCKY ON HIS
FEET.
>> I JUST SEEN MY CANCER DOCTOR
LAST WEEK, AND SHE SAID TO ME,
SHE SAID, YOU'RE LOOKING AWFUL
GOOD FOR SOMEONE WHO SHOULD BE
DEAD.
>> Reporter: DOUCET'S MEDICAL
PROBLEMS BEGAN LAST JULY WHEN HE
FOUND A LUMP UNDER HIS ARMPIT.
HE WENT TO THE ER IN HALIFAX
FOUR TIMES.
THEY ORDERED A BIOPSY AND TOLD
HIM TO WAIT FOR THE RESULTS.
WITH EACH DAY, HE WAS WORST.
HE LOST HIS BALANCE AND COULD
BARELY STAND.
>> MY WHOLE LEFT SIDE WAS JUST
BLOWN RIGHT -- I MEAN, 15 TIMES
THE NORMAL SIZE, MY WHOLE LEFT
SIDE.
>> WHEN THE HOSPITAL DIDN'T
ADMIT HIM AFTER THE FOURTH
VISIT, HIS GIRLFRIEND BECAME
IRATE.
NOVA SCOTIA'S HEALTH AUTHORITY
CAN'T TALK ABOUT SPECIFICS, BUT
SAYS THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT
TYPICALLY ASKS SPECIALISTS TO DO
FOLLOW-UP TESTS.
>> THAT'S WHEN WE WENT UP THE
ROAD AND I CALLED THE AMBULANCE
AND THEY CAME AND GOT HIM.
BECAUSE HE REALLY DIDN'T HAVE
THE ENERGY TO FIGHT BACK, YOU
NEED TO FIGHT FOR THEM.
YOU NEED TO STAND YOUR GROUND
AND YOU HAVE TO MAKE YOURSELF
KNOWN.
>> Reporter: DOUCET HAS STAGE 4
NON-HODGKIN'S LYMPHOMA,
ACCORDING TO HIS HEMATOLOGIST,
AFTER THEY CALLED 911, THERE
WERE DOUBTS HE WOULD SURVIVE THE
NIGHT.
DOUCET SPENT FOUR MONTHS IN
HOSPITAL AND LOST NEARLY 90
POUNDS.
>> TO ME, BEING FROM HERE,
UNACCEPTABLE.
I'M SURE EVERY NOVA SCOTIAN
WOULD SAY THE SAME THING.
>> Reporter: PART OF THE PROBLEM
IS THAT DOUCET HASN'T HAD A
CHECKUP IN YEARS.
ONE OF THE 100,000 NOVA SCOTIANS
WITHOUT A FAMILY DOCTOR, WITHOUT
BLOOD TESTS, HIS SPECIALIST HAS
NO IDEA WHAT THE CANCER
DEVELOPED.
>> WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE
GOVERNMENT OF NOVA SCOTIA THAT
WE CAN'T GET SOME DOCTORS IN
HERE?
>> Reporter: IN NOVA SCOTIA'S
HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY, DOUCET'S
STORY SPARKED OUTRAGE.
>> I, TOO, READ THE ARTICLE,
MR. SPEAKER, AND THE EXPERIENCE
THAT MR. DOUCET HAD IS
UNACCEPTABLE, MR. SPEAKER,
ISN'T.
>> Reporter: ON MONDAY, THE
GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCED IT WILL
RAISE DOCTORS PAY IN AN EFFORT
TO LURE FAMILY PHYSICIANS TO THE
PROVINCE.
DOUCET FOUND OUT THIS WEEK THAT
HIS CANCER IS NOW IN REMISSION.
HIS CARE TEAM HELPED HIM FIND A
FAMILY DOCTOR.
HE'S MAKING THE MOST OF HIS
RECOVERY, USING IT AS A CHANCE
TO PUT A FACE TO A CHALLENGE
CONFRONTING COMMUNITIES NOT JUST
HERE IN NOVA SCOTIA BUT ACROSS
THE COUNTRY.
CBC NEWS, HALIFAX.
>>> CAROLYN HAS BEEN DOING
DIGGING.
SIMPLY BEYOND PAYING DOCTORS
NOR, THERE ARE OTHER WAYS TO GO,
TOO.
IN BC, IT'S ESTIMATED 10%
DOESN'T HAVE A FAMILY DOCTOR.
THE PROVINCE UPPED THE
RECRUITMENT GAME.
IT LAID OUT ALL THE STEPS A
FOREIGN DOCTOR NEEDS TO PRACTICE
IN BC.
THERE ARE PEOPLE MANNING PHONE
LINES TO WALK PROSPECTS THROUGH
IT.
>> YOU MAKE IT THAT MUCH EASIER
TO COME HERE.
>> Reporter: BC RECRUITERS
ADDRESS EACH DOCTOR'S NEEDS,
WHATEVER IT TAKES TO SEAL THE
DEAL.
AND THE TINY TOWN OF OP ONTARIO
TAKES THAT THINKING TO THE NEXT
LEVEL.
THE RECRUITER PERSONALLY REACHED
OUT TO PROSPECTS AND THE TOWN
BUILD A NEW CLINIC IN RECREATION
CENTRE TO ATTRACT THEM.
>> DOCTORS ARE NOT GOING TO COME
TO RURAL ONTARIO, NOT UNLESS
THEY'RE ABLE TO HAVE THE SAME
AMENITIES AS THEY WOULD IN THE
CITY.
>> IN THE EARLY 2000s, THE
COMMUNITY HAD JUST FIVE DOCTORS.
NOW, IT HAS 18.
>>> AHEAD TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL," SHE THOUGHT SHE HIT A
DEAD END REJECTING IN THE U.S.
AFTER BEING SHOT BY HER HUSBAND
IN THE FACE IN AFGHANISTAN.
TONIGHT SHE IS SETTLING INTO HER
NEW LIFE IN CANADA AND SHARING
HER STORY FOR THE FIRST TIME.
>>> AND LAST NIGHT, WE BROUGHT
YOU THE STORY OF A 13-YEAR-OLD
FIGHTING TO PROTECT THE WORLD'S
WATER.
TONIGHT, AUTUMN HAS TAKEN THAT
BATTLE STRAIGHT TO THE UNITED
NATIONS.
>>> PLUS LATER, DAVID COMMONS
SITS DOWN WITH THE BARENAKED
LADIES AS THEY PREPARE TO
REUNITE ON STAGE AT THE JUNOS
THIS WEEKEND.
>>> UNTIL WE GET IN THE SAME
ROOM TOGETHER AT THE END OF THE
MONTH, I DON'T THINK WE'RE GOING
TO KNOW.
[*]
>>> IT WILL BE LIKE A BATMAN
EPISODE.
>>> CANADA HAS COME TO THE
RESCUE OF A YOUNG AFGHAN WOMAN
WHOSE HUSBAND NEARLY KILLED HER.
SHE WAS JUST A TEENAGER WHEN THE
MAN SHE WAS FORCED TO MARRY SHOT
HER IN THE FACE.
SHE THOUGHT HER LIFE WAS OVER.
THE UNITED STATES WOULDN'T HELP
HER, SO SHE'S NOW RECOVERING
FROM BRITISH COLUMBIA AND
SHARING HER STORY WITH CBC NEWS.
[*]
>> Reporter: EACH TIME SHE LOOKS
INTO THE MIRROR, THE 23-YEAR-OLD
BECOMES MORE COMFORTABLE WITH
HER OWN REFLECTION, AM IMAGE OF
A FACE THAT'S FOREVER CHANGED.
>> MY HISTORY IS SO SAD THAT I
AM SO STRONG.
>> Reporter: HER STORY BEGINS IN
RURAL AFGHANISTAN WHEN SHE WAS
17, A RELATIVE MARRIED HER OFF
TO AN OLDER MAN.
SHE SAYS HE RAPED AND TORTURED
HER.
WHEN SHE WENT TO THE POLICE,
THEY DIDN'T HELP.
INSTEAD, HER HUSBAND FIND OUT
AND SHOT HER, SHATTERING THE
LEFT SIDE OF HER FACE.
SHE WOKE UP IN A HOSPITAL IN
KABUL HORRIFIED BY WHAT SHE SAW.
>> I WAS SO SAD, I CRIED.
WHERE'S MY EYE?
WHERE'S MY NOSE?
I AM SO SAD WHEN I LOOK IN THE
MIRROR.
>> Reporter: SHE WAS SENT TO
INDIA WHERE SHE UNDERWENT
SEVERAL RECONSTRUCTIVE
SURGERIES.
WHEN SHE WENT OUT IN PUBLIC, SHE
COVERED HER FACE WITH AN EYE
PATCH.
>> MY FACE IS SO DIFFERENT.
I AM SO PRETTY NOW.
I AM NOT --
>> Reporter: IN 2016, SHE
RECEIVED SOME GOOD NEWS, A
LETTER FROM THE U.S. GOVERNMENT
SAID THAT HER CLAIM FOR REFUGEE
STATUS THERE HAD BEEN APPROVED.
ONE YEAR LATER IN A SECOND
LETTER, SHE WAS SUDDENLY REVOKED
FOR SECURITY REASONS.
SHE BELIEVES PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS
TO BLAME.
SHE SAID WHILE SOME OF HER
RELATIVES WERE WORKING WITH THE
TALIBAN, THAT'S EXACTLY WHY SHE
NEEDED TO BE PROTECTED.
>> THEY ARE WORKING WITH
TALIBAN.
THEY ARE KILLING ME.
THEY ARE SHOOTING MY FACE.
>> Reporter: A FEW MONTHS AFTER
THE U.S. REJECTION, CANADA
STEPPED IN AND OFFERED TO SETTLE
HER, HER SISTER, AND HER MOTHER.
>> I'M SO HAPPY.
THIS IS REAL.
YES.
YES.
I'M SO EXCITED.
>> Reporter: THE FAMILY ARRIVED
IN CANADA AT THE END OF JANUARY
AND HAVE SETTLED INTO AN
APARTMENT IN THE VANCOUVER AREA.
SHE'S GETTING COUNSELLING AND
HELP FROM A LOCAL AGENCY.
>> WE HAVEN'T SEEN THIS WHERE
THE UNITED STATES HAS INITIALLY
OFFERED RESETTLEMENT AND THEN
RESCINDED THAT OFFER.
YOU KNOW, THE CRUELTY OF THAT,
EMOTIONALLY, THAT'S WHY I'M SO
PROUD THAT CANADA SAID WE WILL
HELP YOU.
>> Reporter: SHE'S WORKING ON
HER ENGLISH AND DREAMS OF ONE
DAY WORKING FOR AN ORGANIZATION
THAT FOCUSES ON WOMEN'S RIGHTS.
>> IN HERE, PEOPLE ARE SO KIND.
I LOVE IT.
IN CANADA, IT'S IMPORTANT.
>> Reporter: SHE HAS THROWN OUT
THE EYE PATCH.
>> I AM SO HAPPY.
>> Reporter: ON HER DRESSER SITS
TWO PICTURES, ONE OF HER BEFORE
SHE WAS SHOT, ONE OF HER NOW AS
A REMINDER OF HER LIFE SHE HAD

BEFORE HER.
CBC NEWS, VANCOUVER.
>>> WHAT A STRONG YOUNG WOMAN.
>>> AHEAD TONIGHT, CHANTEL AND
PAUL ARE HERE IN THE WAKE OF THE
CAMBRIDGE ANALYTIC REVELATIONS,
WE'RE TACKING POLITICS.
>>> THE DRAMATIC RESCUE IN
NEWFOUNDLAND.
YOU'LL SEE HOW THEY CAME
TOGETHER TO SAVE 7 DOLPHINS
TRAPPED AND SURROUNDED BY SEA
ICE.
ALL THAT COMING UP ON THE
NATIONAL.
>>> TONIGHT ON "THE NATIONAL,"
COMMUNITY FRUSTRATION OVER HOW
FRONT PLACE HANDLED THE CASE OF
A SERIAL KILLER.
IT'S LED TO A REVIEW.
WE'LL LOOK INTO HOW OFFICERS
HANDLE MISSING PERSONS
INVESTIGATIONS.
WORTH POINTING OUT, IT WON'T
FULLY EXAM THE MACARTHUR CASE
BECAUSE OF HOW CONCERNS THAT
MIGHT AFFECT THE ONGOING
INVESTIGATION.
>>> I WANT EVERYBODY TO KNOW
THAT IT'S HARD FOR US AS A
KIDNAPPING.
>> THAT WAS THE FATHER OF A
MISSING BOY.
HE HASN'T BEEN SEEN SINCE MARCH
12th WHEN HE LEFT HIS HOUSE TO
VISIT A FRIEND.
>>> MR. SPEAKER, WE KNOW THE
PERSON AT THE CENTER OF THE
FACEBOOK DATA LEAK SCANDAL IS A
LIBERAL PARTY OPERATIVE.
NOT ONLY DID CHRISTOPHER WYLIE
WORK FOR TWO DIFFERENT LEADERS,
BUT ACCORDING TO MEDIA REPORTS
THIS MORNING, HE ALSO WORKED ON
A PROJECT FOR THIS PRIME
MINISTER AND THE TAXPAYER FUNDED
LIBERAL CAUCUS RESEARCH OFFICE.
ALL MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES
ENGAGE IN DATA DRIVEN
ACTIVITIES.
IN FACT, THE CONSERVATIVES DID
WHEN ENGAGING IN A $100,000
CONTRACT WITH THE PR SOLUTIONS.
>>> OKAY.
A QUESTION PERIOD CLASSIC, THE
CONSERVATIVES ACCUSE THE
LIBERALS.
NOT THE MOST PRODUCTIVE WAY TO
HAVE AN ARGUMENT.
IN THIS CASE, SCOTT IS RIGHT.
ALL POLITICAL PARTIES ARE USING
DATA IN THEIR CAMPAIGNS.
CONSIDERING WHAT'S HAPPENING
SOUTH OF THE BORDER, SHOULD WE
BE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT?
WE HAVE GUESTS HERE.
CHANTEL IS IN MONTREAL.
ANDREW IS IN TORONTO.
PAUL JOINS ME HERE IN OTTAWA.
GOOD TO SEE EVERYBODY.
LET'S START WITH YOU CHANTEL.
PROBABLY CANADIANS MAYBE THEY
ARE, MAYBE THEY ARE AN WARE OF
HOW MUCH POLITICAL PARTIES ARE
TRYING TO FIND OUT THINGS ABOUT
VOTERS.
HOW CONCERNED SHOULD THEY BE
ABOUT THAT, DO YOU THINK?
>> I'M NOT SURE THEY SHOULD BE
CONCERNED, BUT CERTAINLY IF THEY
ARE NOT SHOULD BE AWARE, NOT
ONLY ARE PARTIES USING WHATEVER
DATA THEY CAN GET OFF SOCIAL
MEDIA FOR THEIR ELECTION
PURPOSES AND IT'S CERTAINLY
PROBABLY BEATING KNOCKING ON
DOORS AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT
FROM YOUR BODY LANGUAGE WHETHER
YOU'RE LEANING PARTISAN OR NOT,
BUT THEY'RE ALSO USING SOCIAL
MEDIA TO FUNDRAISE.
WHEN YOU FUNDRAISE OFF
INDIVIDUALS, THAT'S CRUCIAL,
TOO.
>> ANDREW, WHAT DO YOU THINK
ABOUT THIS?
WE KNOW THIS GOVERNMENT HAS
SPENT SOMETHING LIKE $13 MILLION
SINCE COMING TO OFFICE
ADVERTISING ON SOCIAL MEDIA
WHICH IS TOTALLY FAIR GAME, BUT
I WONDER HOW MUCH OF THAT
THEY'RE USING ALSO TO TAP INTO
GETTING TO KNOW THEIR VOTERS
BETTER.
>> YEAH.
AND THERE'S ILLEGITIMATE AND
LEGITIMATE PARTIES.
THE LEGAL PART IS ARE PEOPLE
GETTING AT THEIR PRIVATE
INFORMATION?
IS IT BEING LEAKED?
PRIVACY CONCERNS BEING
IT'S WORTH QUESTIONING WHETHER
THIS IS SOMETHING WE WANT TO
ENCOURAGE, THE DEGREE TO WHICH
NOT ONLY POLITICAL PARTIES BUT
ALSO PRIVATE COMPANIES CAN PUT
TOGETHER THESE KIND OF
PORTRAITS.
AT SOME POINT, EVEN IF THE
INFORMATION HAS BEEN ASSEMBLED
FROM AVAILABLE SOURCES, IF YOU
PUT IT TOGETHER, YOU GET
SOMETHING INVASIVE AT THE
INDIVIDUAL LEVEL.
EVEN MORE IMPORTANT TO ME IS,
YOU'RE KIND OF SLICING AND
DICING THE ELECTORATE INTO THESE
MICRO TARGETED SEGMENTS WITH A
DIFFERENT MESSAGE FOR EACH AND
SOMETIMES MESSAGES THAT ARE
QUITE INFLAMMATORY OR QUITE
BELOW THE BELT.
IT USED TO BE IN THE AGE OF THE
MASS MEDIA ALL THIS WAS OUT IN
PUBLIC.
WE COULD SEE WHETHER SOMEBODY
WAS SAYING ONE THING TO ONE SIDE
AND ANOTHER THING TO ANOTHER.
THAT'S HARDER TO MONITOR NOW
WHEN EVERYTHING IS KIND OF SUB
TERRAIN I DON'AT THIAN IF YOU WILL.
>> ROBERT MASON LEE WROTE THAT
THEY WERE DOING IT IN THE
WRITING WHERE I LIVED BY MAIL
ORDER.
THEY WOULD SEND OUT A MAILER AND
SAY DIRECTLY FROM THE DESK OF
BRIAN MULRONEY, SIR OR MADAM I
CARE WHAT YOU THINK.
FILL OUT THIS QUESTIONNAIRE.
BASED ON THE ANSWERS WHICH
PEOPLE WOULD MAIL BACK, THEY
WOULD GET MAILERS CONCERNING
WHAT THEY WANTED.
POLITICAL PARTIES, ALL OF
THEM -- SCOTT WAS RIGHT ABOUT
THAT -- ABOUT THEIR ABILITY TO
DO THAT.
THERE'S A REASON WE HAD HAD
SEVERAL CHANGES OF GOVERNMENT
FROM CONSERVATIVE TO LIBERAL AND
BACK OVER THE LAST SEVERAL
YEARS.
NO GOVERNMENT HAS SEEN FIT TO
INCLUDE POLITICAL PARTIES IN THE
BASIC PRIVACY LAWS.
THERE'S NO REQUIREMENT TO LET
YOU KNOW THEY HAVE THEIR DATA.
THERE'S NO REQUIREMENT TO GIVE
IT BACK.
THERE'S NO REQUIREMENT TO DELETE
IT AFTER THE FIRST REASONABLE
USE.
>> THEY HELP THEMSELVES TO
PUBLIC FUNDS TO PAY FOR IT.
THE POLITICAL PARTIES, IT'S ONE
OF THOSE WHO GUARDS THE
GUARDIANS THINGS.
THEY ARE ALL CONCERNED ABOUT
WHEN EVERYBODY ELSE DOES IT.
THEY EXCUSE THEMSELVES FROM THE
SAME OBLIGATION.
THEY HELP THEMSELVES TO PUBLIC
FUNDS.
NONE OF IT IS NECESSARY.
IT'S HARMFUL.
THE ONLY REASON ANY ONE OF THEM
NEEDS TO DO IT IS TO KEEP PACE
WITH THE OTHERS.
IT THERE WAS A WAY TO GIVE IT
UP, I THINK IT WOULD BE
HEALTHIER.
>> THE PRIVACY COMMISSIONER HAS
BEEN ASKING FOR THIS AS
BALLPOINTS OUT.
CHANTEL ON TO YOU.
>> I THINK WE WILL WORK TOWARDS
A BETTER ENVIRONMENT.
I DON'T THINK PARTIES ARE GOING
TO SWEAR OFF THIS TO FALSE
POINT.
I COVERED THE BY ELECTION IN
ONTARIO IN THE '80s WHERE THE
GOVERNMENT SENT FLYERS THAT SAID
IF YOU VOTED FOR THE OPTICIAN,
ONTARIO WOULD BECOME BILINGUAL.
THIS IS NOT A NEW STRATEGY.
IT'S A NEW MEANS TO DO IT.
THERE IS ALSO A BUYERS BEWARE.
IF YOU ARE ON SOCIAL MEDIA OR IF
YOU GO TO A POLITICAL RALLY AND
YOU OFFER ALL THAT INFORMATION,
I GUESS YOU SHOULDN'T THINK IT'S
BECAUSE YOU'RE ONLY GOING TO GET
A CHRISTMAS CARD FROM THE PRIME
MINISTER.
>> WELL, I JUST ASSUME I'M
GETTING CHRISTMAS CARDS FROM
EVERYBODY NO MATTER WHAT
HAPPENS.
OKAY.
PAUL, I'M GOING TO START WITH
YOU.
WE'RE GOING TO HEAR FROM THE
QUEBEC GOVERNMENT AND ONTARIO
GOVERNMENT ABOUT THE BUDGETS,
ALTHOUGH KATHLEEN WYNNE HAS BEEN
THROWING MONEY AROUND THIS WEEK
ALREADY.
THIS HAPPENING AS THEY LEAD UP
TO THEIR ELECTION.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE QUEBEC
BUDGET IS GOING TO BRING, BUT I
HAVE A SENSE OF HOW ONTARIO IS
POSITIONING ITSELF.
HOW SHOULD WE READ WHAT'S GOING
TO HAPPEN NEXT WEEK AS THEY
PREPARE FOR AN ELECTION.
>> THESE ARE PREELECTION BUDGETS
BY TWO GOVERNMENTS, TWO PREMIERS
WHO GET ALONG BETTER THAN TWO I
CAN REMEMBER.
AND THEY BOTH HAVE THEIR BACK TO
THE WALL BECAUSE AFTER A DOZEN
OR MORE YEARS THIS POWER,
DEPENDING HOW YOU COUNT IT,
VOTERS ARE SICK OF THEM AND
THEY'RE BEING UNDERSTOOD IN THE
MORE CONSERVATIVE ALTERNATIVES.
FACED WITH THAT, PHILIPPE
COUILLARD WHO IS GOING TO THE
POLLS, HE'S RESTRAINING
SPENDING.
HE HASN'T BEEN HANDING OUT
GIFTS.
HE'S SHOWING HE'S THE
RESPONSIBLE STEWARD THAT YOU CAN
COUNT ON.
MORE RESPONSIBLE THAN THE
UPSTART CAQ PARTY.
COMPARE AND CONTRAST.
KATHLEEN WYNNE HAS BEEN TRYING
TO GET HER DEFICIT DOWN TO 0,
TRYING TO SHOW RESPONSIBILITY
AND BE RESTRAINED AND THE
HOMESTRETCH, HELL WITH IT.
ONTARIO NEEDS THINGS.
IT NEEDS BETTER HEALTH CARE AND
DENTAL CARE AND BETTER CHILD
CARE.
SO WE'RE GOING TO BLOW AN $8
BILLION HOLE IN THE DEFICIT.
WE'RE GOING TO GROW THE DEBT
BACK UP AND WE'RE JUST GOING DO
TRY AND CONVINCE ONTARIANS THAT
GOVERNMENT IS SO WORTH HAVING
THEY CAN'T HAND IT OVER TO DOUG
FORD AND WATCH HIM CUT IT.
>> IT IS INTERESTING.
THAT'S A GOOD POINT.
THEY'RE FIGHTING CHANGE AND
CHANTEL, ONTARIO TRYING TO DO IT
BY SAYING WE'RE CONCERNED.
HERE'S A BUNCH MORE MONEY AND
JUST VOTE FOR STABILITY AND MORE
STUFF.
>> YES.
BUT I HAVE TO SAY THAT IF YOU'RE
A QUEBECER THESE DAYS AND YOU
HAVE A GOOD CAUSE, THERE TENDS
TO BE GOVERNMENT MONEY FOR IT.
IT MAY NOT BE ON THE SCALE OF
ONTARIO, BUT THE GOVERNMENT
SUDDENLY HAS A SURPLUS TO SPEND.
MY EXPLANATION FOR THE BIGGEST
DIFFERENCE IS THAT IN ONTARIO,
THE LIBERALS ARE TRYING TO GET
THE NDP VOTE TO COALESCE AGAINST
DOUG FORD BEHIND THEM.
IN QUEBEC, THAT VOTE TO BE VERY
HARD TO CONVINCE PQ PEOPLE TO
CROSS OVER TO THE FEDERALIST
OPTION ON THE BALLOT.
SO THEY'RE TRYING A DIFFERENT
STRATEGY, WHICH IS BASICALLY TO
TRY TO FEND OFF THE CAQ.
DON'T UNDERESTIMATE HIM FINDING
MONEY.
>> ANDREW.
>> WELL, JUST TO RESTATE
CHANTEL'S POINT, THE LIBERALS
AREN'T QUITE AS BAD SHAPE AS THE
LIBERALS IN ONTARIO BUT ALSO FOR
THE REASONS CHANTEL MENTIONED.
IT'S NOT AVAILABLE TO DO A
COMBINED ANYBODY BUT THE CAQ
VOTE WHEREAS IN ONTARIO, THE
ONLY OPTION THAT KATHLEEN WYNNE
HAS, THE ONLY CHANCE IS TO
CORRAL ALL THE NON CONSERVATIVE
VOTE UNDER ONE TENT MUCH SHE HAS
TO THINK A TOUGH ROAD.
THERE IS WILLS DIFFERENCES IN
THEIR FINANCIAL SITUATIONS.
QUEBEC, YOU KNOW, IN WORSE SHAPE
COMING INTO THIS.
THEY HAVE A HEIGHTER DEBT TO GDP
RATIO.
THEY'VE BEEN MAKING PROGRESS IN
GETTING IT DOWN.
ONTARIO HAS A SMALLER DEBT AND
IS PILING IT ON.
>> PAUL, YOU GET THE LAST 20
SECONDS THERE.
>> JUST A PREDICTION EVEN THOUGH
I SHOULDN'T BE MAKING
PREDICTIONS.
I THINK THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE AT
THE END OF THE YEAR ONLY ONE
WILL BE THE PREMIER.
I THINK PHILIPPE COUILLARD CAN'T
BE COUNTED OUT.
THE OTHER IS GOOD AT PUTTING HIS
FOOT IN HIS MOUTH.
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE'S GONE
INTO A CAMPAIGN IN THE LEAD.
I THINK -- GET THE IMPRESSION
THE LIBERALS ARE EAGER TO
CAMPAIGN AGAINST HIM.
>> TALK ABOUT AN EARTHQUAKE,
THOUGH.
IF IT'S SOMETHING OTHER THAN THE
LIBERALS AND THE PQ FORMS A
GOVERNMENT, THAT WILL BE MAJOR.
>> FROM WHERE I SIT, THE
EARTHQUAKE WILL BE F THAT
DOESN'T HAPPEN.
>> OKAY.
THERE YOU GO.
THANKS, EVERYBODY.
>>> GOOD NEWS FOR ALL OF YOU WHO
LOVE POLITICS AS MUCH AS WE DO.
AT ISSUE IS A POD CONFIDENT TO
GET EXTRA CONTENT AND THE MAIN
PANEL EVERY WEEK.
THIS WEEK, ELECTIONS IN CANADA
ARE CHANGING AND IT'S NOT JUST
THE INFLUENCE OF BIG DATA.
LOOK FOR IT ON iTUNES AND OUR
WEBSITE,
www.cbc.ca/news/thenational.
>>> WE ARE LOOKING AHEAD TO THE
JUNO AWARDS IN VANCOUVER LITTLE
INCLUDE A REUNION BETWEEN STEVEN
PAGE AND THE BARENAKED LADIES.
TONIGHT THEY ARE TALKING TO
DAVID COMMONS ABOUT PLAYING
TOGETHER LIVE AND HOW THEY'VE
CHANGED SINCE THE BIG BREAK UP.
>>> EVERY DAY THERE'S SOMETHING
WHO SAID SUCK IT UP AND GET BACK
TOGETHER AS IF SOMEONE WAS EVER
GOING TO SAY TO ANYBODY ELSE,
SUCK IT UP AND GO BACK TO YOUR
EX-WIFE EVEN THOUGH YOU MOVED ON
AND ARE REMAR
>>> LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
BARENAKED LADIES.
[*]
>>> SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED TO THE
BARENAKED LADIES SINCE 1993.
THEY TOPPED THE CHARTS, SOLD
MILLIONS OF RECORDS, AND THEN
STEVEN PAGE LEFT THE BAND OVER A
DRUG SCANDAL.
THIS SUNDAY, THEY WILL REUNITE
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ALMOST A
DECADE WHEN THEY PERFORM LIVE AT
THE JUNO AWARDS.
THE GUYS ARE QUICK TO WARN FANS
NOT TO READ TOO MUCH INTO THIS.
THEY HAVE BARELY SPOKEN SINCE
SPLITTING UP.
THEY PERFORM TOGETHER, BUT THAT
DOESN'T MEAN THEY ARE GETTING
THE BAND BACK TOGETHER.
>> Reporter: NINE YEARS IS A
LONG TIME.
THE BARENAKED LADIES HAVEN'T
BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM AS THEIR
FORMER FRONTMAN STEVEN PAGE
SINCE THEIR SPLIT IN 2009.
THEY ARE ABOUT TO PERFORM
TOGETHER.
YOU HAVE TO WONDER, HOW IS THAT
GOING TO GO?
>> FULL FISTFIGHT.
CHOREOGRAPHED.
IT'S GOING TO BE LIKE A BATMAN
EPISODE.
>> Reporter: JOKING IS SOMETIMES
AN EASIER WAY TO DEAL WITH THE
AWKWARD.
>> FOR ME, I'M NOT LOOKING AT IT
LIKE TIME TO REHASH EVERYTHING
OR LIKE -- I'M JUST GOING TORT
CELEBRATION.
>> Reporter: EVEN THEY ADMIT
THEY'RE NOT SURE WHAT TO EXPECT.
>> UNTIL WE GET IN THE SAME ROOM
TOGETHER AT THE END OF THE MONTH
AT JUNO TIME, WE DON'T KNOW.
[*]
>> Reporter: IT'S BEEN THREE
DECADES SINCE THEY SOLIDIFIED
THEIR IMAGE AS A GROUP OF BUDS
JUST HAVEN'T FUN.
>> WE'RE BARENAKED LADIES AND
WE'RE TOO CHEAP TO MAKE OUR OWN
VIDEO.
HERE YOU GO.
>> Reporter: THEIR FIRST VIDEO
SHOT FOR A BUCK CONVINCED FANS
THEY DIDN'T TAKE MUCH SERIOUSLY.
[*]
>> Reporter: WHEN IT CAME TO
BUILDING THEIR SUCCESS, IT'S THE
HARD WORK AND SACRIFICE THEY
REMEMBER.
>> I MOVED THE DATE OF MY
WEDDING BECAUSE WE GOT AN -- I
DON'T EVEN REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS
NOW, BUT WE GOT SOME GIG THAT
MIGHT HAVE BEEN IMPORTANT TO THE
CAREER OF THE BAND.
>> Reporter: HOW DID THAT
CONVERSATION GO OVER?
>> IT WAS NOT EASY.
>> Reporter: ALSO NOT EASY, A
BIG BLOW AT THE PEAK OF THEIR
CAREER.
>> I ALSO APOLOGIZED TO ALL
THOSE I HURT OR EMBARRASSED
DURING THIS EPISODE.
>> Reporter: PAGE WAS ARRESTED
IN NEW YORK FOR COCAINE
POSSESSION.
IT WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE END.
7 MONTHS LATER, THE BAND
ABRUPTLY SPLIT.
[*]
>> Reporter: IT'S BEEN TEN
YEARS, PEOPLE ASK WHAT HAPPENED.
WHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE
STILL ASKING THAT TEN YEARS
LATER?
>> WELL, I THINK BECAUSE PEOPLE
HAD THEIR OWN VISION OF WHAT THE
BAND WAS AND WHAT THE
RELATIONSHIP WAS BETWEEN THE
BAND MEMBERS, AND PEOPLE ARE
NOSTALGIC FOR THEIR OWN
IMPRESSIONS OF WHAT THAT THING
WAS.
[*]
>> IT'S AN INTENSE SORT OF
RELATIONSHIP, PERSONAL AND
CREATIVE AND BUSINESS-WISE.
SO WE TRIED TO DEAL WITH IT IN
THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE.
[*]
>> YOU THINK OF IT AS A GROUP OF
BROTHERS OR A GROUP OF BUDDIES.
BUT IT'S ALMOST MORE LIKE A
MARRIAGE.
IT COULDN'T HOLD ON ANYMORE.
>> Reporter: BUT IT'S A BREAKUP
FANS HAVE BEEN RELUCTANT TO
ACCEPT.
EVERY DAY THERE'S SOMEBODY WHO
SAID SUCK IT UP AND GET BACK
TOGETHER, LIKE AS IF SOMEONE WAS
EVER GOING TO SAY TO ANYBODY
ELSE, SUCK IT UP AND GO BACK TO
YOUR EX-WIFE EVEN THOUGH YOU'VE
MOVED ON AND YOU'RE REMARRIED
AND HAVE KIDS, WHATEVER ELSE IT
IS.
[*]
>> Reporter: BOTH SIDES HAVE
MOVED ON.
STEVEN PAGE WITH A SOLO CAREER,
SOMETIMES PAIRING WITH OTHER
MUSICIANS.
[*]
>> Reporter: THE BARENAKED
LADIES CURRENTLY ON TOUR
PERFORMING SONGS FROM THEIR NEW
ALBUM, INCLUDING THIS EARLY FAN
FAVOURITE.
[*]
>> AT THE TIME REPLAYED RIGHT
FROM THE BEGINNING, MAYBE EVEN
THAT SONG WAS THE BEGINNING OF
THE BAND.
[*]
>> Reporter: IT'S A SONG THEY
STILL PERFORM EVERY NIGHT BUT
FOR PAGE, IT'S ONE OF THE FEW
HE'S DROPPED FROM HIS SET.
>> FOR ME IT'S SPECIAL.
IT'S A DUET.
I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WOULD SOUND
WEIRD TO THE AUDIENCE WHEN I WAS
SINGING IT ON MY OWN OR WITH
SOMEBODY ELSE.
[*]
>> Reporter: TO CELEBRATE THEIR
INDUCTION INTO THE CANADIAN
MUSIC HALL OF FAME, THEY'LL SING
TWO SONGS, NEITHER SIDE HAS SAID
WHICH ONES, BUT THEY AREN'T
WORRIED ABOUT THAT PART.
THERE IS A CERTAIN CHEMISTRY
WITHIN THE BAND THAT WAS ALWAYS
THERE.
I BELIEVE WILL ALWAYS BE THERE.
PLAYING MUSIC TOGETHER ON A
STAGE IS EASY.
>> Reporter: IS IT A ONE OFF?
>> I SUSPECT SO.
>> THAT SOUNDED DIPLOMATIC.
>> ONE DAY AT A TIME.
>> I DON'T THINK THEY HAVE ANY
DESIRE TO HAVE ME BACK IN THE
BAND.
I KNOW I DON'T HAVE ANY DESIRE
TO BE BACK IN THE BAND.
BUT IF THERE ARE OPPORTUNITIES
TO COLLABORATE LIKE THIS AND WE
ENJOY IT, THERE'S NO RULE SAYING
WE CAN'T.
IT'S ALL JUST A MATTER OF
WHETHER WE WANT TO DO IT OR NOT.
>> GET OVER THE FIRST HURDLE.
>> YEAH.
LET'S TRY IT.
[*]
>> Reporter: SO THEY'LL START
WITH ONE NIGHT OF FUN, ONE NIGHT
TO REMEMBER THEIR PAST TOGETHER.
WHERE IT GOES FROM THERE IS
UNKNOWN.
>>> LAST NIGHT WE TOLD YOU ABOUT
13-YEAR-OLD AUTUMN PELTIER AND
HER PUSH FOR SAFE DRINKING
WATER.
TODAY, ON WORLD WATER DAY, SHE
DELIVERED HER MESSAGE TO THE
UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
HERE SHE IS FOR THE RECORD.
>> I'M LENDING MY VOICE TO SPEAK
UP FOR WATER AND MOTHER EARTH.
I'M NOT JUST USING MY VOICE.
I'M DOING THIS WORK AS WE CAN'T
JUST PRAY ANYMORE.
WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING NOW.
I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH WHAT I'VE
LEARNED ABOUT THE WATER FROM MY
ELDERS IN OUR CEREMONIES.
WATER IS AROUND US AND SUSTAINS
US ALL.
EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED TO THIS
ISSUE OF CLEAN WATER AND IMPACTS
OUR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING.
ONE DAY, I WILL BE AN ANCESTOR
AND I WANT MY GREAT
GRANDCHILDREN TO KNOW I TRIED
HARD TO FIGHT SO THEY CAN HAVE
CLEAN DRINKING WATER.
NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO WORRY
ABOUT THE WATER IS CLEAN OR IF
THEY WILL RUN OUT OF WATER.
NO CHILD SHOULD GROW UP NOT
KNOWING WHAT CLEAN WATER IT OR
NEVER KNOWING WHAT RUNNING WATER
IS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> WE'VE GONE TO THE UN TODAY.
I WAS -- I DON'T KNOW.
IT WAS REALLY COOL.
I DEFINITELY FELT HEARD BECAUSE
IT WAS A ROOM FULL OF WORLD
LEADERS.
WHAT I HOPE THAT HAPPENS IN THE
FUTURE IS THAT THEY JUST FOLLOW
THROUGH WITH THEIR PROMISE AND
JUST PROTECT
>> Andrew: TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL," THE ENTIRE EUROPEAN
UNION HAS JOINED BRITAIN IN
BLAMING RUSSIA FOR THE POISONING
OF A SPY AND HIS DAUGHTER ON
BRITISH SOIL.
THE E.U. IS NOW RECALLING ITS
AMBASSADOR TO MOSCOW FOR
CONSULTATION.
>>> THE RADIO-CANADA REPORTER
ACCUSED OF CRIMINALLY HARASSING
A WOMAN HE WAS INVESTIGATING
WILL NOT FACE CHARGES.
IN FACT, POLICE SAY THEY MADE A
MISTAKE IN ARRESTING HIM.
>> A GREAT DEAL OF
SELF-EXAMINATION HAS RESULTED
FROM THIS CASE AND WE'RE DRAWING
LESSONS FROM IT.
>> Andrew: ANTOINE TREPANIER WAS
WORKING ON AN INVESTIGATIVE
STORY ABOUT THE HEAD OF A
GATINEAU CHARITY.
SHE AGREED TO A CHARITY AND THEN
BACKED OUT
AFTER TREPANIER EMAILED HER TO
RE SCHEDULE, SHE COMPLAINED AND
HE WAS ARRESTED.
POLICE SAY THEY'RE WORKING TO
AVOID SITUATIONS LIKE THIS IN
THE FUTURE.
>> Adrienne: EARLY SPRING CAN BE
TREACHEROUS IN NEWFOUNDLAND.
SEA ICE POSES A SERIOUS
DANGEROUS TO PEOPLE AND EVEN
WILDLIFE.
ONE GREAT IDEA CAN MAKE ALL THE
DIFFERENCE.
>> Reporter: NOT EVERY STORY HAS
A HAPPY ENDING AND THIS ONE HAD
PEOPLE IN HEARTS DELIGHT
TEETERING BETWEEN HOPE AND
DESPAIR.
SEVEN DOLPHINS TRAPPED BY ICE
AND FACING CERTAIN DEATH.
HUMAN INTERVENTION, THEIR LAST
RESORT.
SEA ICE HAD TRAPPED THEM IN AN
AREA OF WATER NEAR SHORE.
AN AREA SHRINKING FAST.
SOMETHING HAD TO BE DONE.
USING A BOAT TO CLEAR A PATH HAD
BEEN DEEMED TOO RISKY.
TODAY THERE WAS A NEW IDEA.
>> A FRIEND OF MINE HAD AN
EXCAVATOR, HIS WIFE SAID, WHY
DON'T YOU TRY TO GET THE
EXCAVATORS DOWN AND MOVE SOME
EQUIPMENT.
SO WE BROUGHT IN A SECOND PIECE
OF EQUIPMENT TO HELP MOVE THE
ICE.
>> Reporter: FOR HOURS, THE
EXCAVATORS MADE LITTLE HEADWAY,
BUT THEN IT STARTED TO WORK.
AND A CHANNEL OPENED UP.
A D.F.O. INDEED BOAT USED ITS
POWERFUL TWIN MOTORS TO BREAK UP
THE ICE.
AND TWO GENTLEMEN IN A SMALLER
BOAT USED HAND TOOLS TO PUSH
AWAY THE PIECES.
WITH EVERYONE WORKING TOGETHER,
IT FINALLY HAPPENED.
[CHEERING]
>> Reporter: A FIN POPPED UP ON
THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ICE.
THEN ANOTHER, THEN ANOTHER.
FINALLY, THE ENTIRE GROUP OF
DOLPHINS MADE A CHARGE TOGETHER
THROUGH THE OPENING IN THE ICE
THAT PEOPLE HAD MADE FOR THEM.
>> OH, MY GOD.
THAT WAS AMAZING.
OH, YEAH!
EVEN THE DOG CRIED.
[LAUGHTER]
>> Reporter: AND THEN THEY WERE
FREE.
>> AS SOON AS THE ICE BROKE,
THEY WERE FREE.
EVERYONE WAS JUMPING FOR JOY.
I'M SO HAPPY THEY'RE FREE AND
SAFE.
>> THAT COULDN'T HAVE TURNED OUT
ANY BETTER.
AND THE WHOLE GET-TOGETHER HERE
IN THE HARBOUR WAS HUMANITARIAN
AT ITS BEST.
>> Reporter: THE DOLPHINS WOULD
LIKELY AGREE.
>> Rosemary: AND THE OTHER BEST
PART OF THAT STORY, IT HAPPENED
IN HEARTS DELIGHT.
>> Adrienne: PEOPLE STARTED TO
WAVE AT THE DOLPHINS.
IT WAS A GOOD MOMENT.
>> Andrew: ALWAYS NICE TO END ON
A HAPPY NOTE.
>> Rosemary: WE COULD TALK ABOUT
THIS FOREVER.
YOU KNOW THAT.
>> Adrienne: THAT'S "THE
NATIONAL" FOR MARCH 22.
GOOD NIGHT.
>> Rosemary: GOOD NIGHT.
>> Andrew: GOOD NIGHT.
