MARCH 4th AND THIS IS "THE
NATIONAL."
>> Rosemary: TONIGHT, NEGLECT
OF DUTY.
A SCATHING REVIEW OF THUNDER BAY
POLICE INVESTIGATING THE
DEATH OF AN INDIGENOUS MAN
PROMPTING CALLS FOR THE POLICE
CHIEF
TO STEP DOWN.
A CBC EXCLUSIVE.
>> Adrienne: A MYSTERIOUS
MASKED MOB OF VANDALS DRESSED IN
BLACK DESCEND ON DOWNTOWN
HAMILTON.
SO WHO ARE THEY AND WHAT SPARKED
THE VIOLENCE?
>> Rosemary: AND NO
EXEMPTIONS.
NO EXCEPTIONS.
TRUMP KEEPS A HARD LINE ON STEEL
TARIFFS.
WHAT IT MEANS FOR CANADA.
WE BEGIN TONIGHT IN THUNDER BAY,
ONTARIO, AND A POLICE SERVICE
ONCE AGAIN UNDER FIRE FOR
HOW THEY HANDLED THE DROWNING
DEATH OF AN INDIGENOUS MAN, A
DEATH THAT INVESTIGATORS SHOULD
HAVE TREATED AS A POTENTIAL
HOMICIDE BUT DID NOT AND RACISM
APPEARS TO BE A REASON WHY.
THAT'S THE DAMNING CONCLUSION OF
AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION
OBTAINED EXCLUSIVELY BY OUR
COLLEAGUES AT "THE FIFTH
ESTATE."
IT WAS LAUNCHED AFTER THE DEATH
OF 41-YEAR-OLD STACY DEBUNGEE.
HIS BODY WAS FOUND TWO YEARS AGO
IN THE NORTHERN ONTARIO CITY.
HIS CASE WAS SAID TO BE
NON-CRIMINAL BUT
IN THE WAKE OF THIS REVIEW AND
THE CONCERNS OVER HOW POLICE
INVESTIGATES CASES WITH
INDIGENOUS PEOPLES, FIRST NATION
LEADERS ARE CALLING FOR THE
RESIGNATION OF THE THUNDER BAY
POLICE CHIEF.
"THE FIFTH ESTATE'S" GILLIAN
FINDLAY IS BREAKING THIS STORY
FOR US TONIGHT.
>> Reporter: IT WAS THE CHIEFS
OF THE RAINY RIVER FIRST NATION
WHO ASKED FOR THE REVIEW OF THE
THUNDER BAY POLICE.
THE RESULTS TODAY HAVE THEM
CALLING FOR ACTION.
>> LEADERSHIP COMES FROM THE TOP
DOWN, RIGHT?
AND IT'S A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM WITH
THE THUNDER BAY POLICE FORCE SO
I'M CALLING FOR CHIEF LEVESQUE'S
RESIGNATION AND BARRING THAT THE
POLICE BOARD HAS TO DO THEIR JOB
AND FIRE HIM.
>> Reporter: AT ISSUE WAS THE
POLICE SERVICE'S INVESTIGATION
INTO THE DEATH OF THIS MAN, IN
OCTOBER 2015, STACY DEBUNGEE'S
BODY WAS FOUND FACEDOWN IN THE
MACINTYRE RIVER.
WITHIN HOURS BEFORE HIS BODY HAD
EVEN BEEN IDENTIFIED POLICE SAID
THAT THE DEATH DID NOT APPEAR
SUSPICIOUS.
WITHIN A DAY EVEN BEFORE AN
AUTOPSY HAD BEEN CONDUCTED, THEY
DETERMINED THAT THE INCIDENT WAS
NONCRIMINAL, NO FOUL PLAY.
BUT THE POLICE'S THEORY THAT
DEBUNGEE HAD BEEN DRUNK, HIS
DEATH AN ACCIDENT, NEVER SAT
RIGHT WITH HIS OLDER BROTHER
BRAD.
HOW DID THEY FIGURE HE GOT TO
THE WATER?
>> THEY SAY HE ROLLED INTO THE
WATER.
BUT THERE'S NO -- THERE WAS NO
SIGN OF THE WEEDS BEING TRAMPLED
DOWN.
>> Reporter: SO WHAT DID YOU
THINK?
>> LIKE SOMEBODY PLACED HIM
THERE.
LIKE THEY JUST THREW HIM IN THE
WATER AND THAT WAS IT.
>> Reporter: THE RAINY RIVER
FIRST NATION HIRED A PRIVATE
INVESTIGATOR WHO SHARED HIS WORK
WITH "THE FIFTH ESTATE."
OUR DOCUMENTARY RAISED SERIOUS
QUESTIONS ABOUT CLUES THAT
WEREN'T PURSUED.
ANOTHER MAN'S I.D. THAT WAS
FOUND NEAR DEBUNGEE'S BODY,
THE FACT THAT HIS DEBIT CARD HAD
BEEN USED SIX TIMES AFTER HIS
DEATH.
YOU WERE ONE OF THE LAST PEOPLE
THAT WAS WITH STACY, RIGHT, THAT
NIGHT?
SO WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?
AND PEOPLE WHO WERE WITH
DEBUNGEE THE NIGHT THAT HE
DIED AND TOLD US A YEAR LATER
THEY WERE NEVER CONTACTED BY
POLICE FOR AN INTERVIEW.
I'M GILLIAN FINDLAY...
AT THE TIME THUNDER BAY POLICE
CHIEF J.P.
LEVESQUE, DID NOT APPEAR
CONCERNED.
HAVE YOU NOT GONE BACK TO THOSE
INVESTIGATORS AND SAY DID YOU
EVER ASK ABOUT THE DEBIT CARD?
DID YOU INTERVIEW THESE PEOPLE?
>> I TRY TO NOT MICRO-MANAGE AND
I LET THE INVESTIGATORS DO THE
JOB.
>> Reporter: BUT THE
INDEPENDENT REVIEW OBTAINED BY
"THE FIFTH ESTATE" LAYS OUT A
TRAIL OF DEFICIENCIES, SOME EVEN
MORE SHOCKING.
A WITNESS WHO TOLD POLICE THAT
HE HAD SEEN AN ALTERCATION BY
THE RIVER THAT NIGHT AND NOT
CONTACTED FOR MORE THAN A YEAR.
THE MAN WHOSE I.D. WAS FOUND AT
THE SITE, RED FLAGGED IN POLICE
COMPUTERS, BUT NOT QUESTIONED
FOR MONTHS.
THOUGH HE HAD BEEN IN
POLICE CUSTODY TWICE.
AND PERHAPS MOST DISTURBING AN
ALLEGED DEATHBED CONFESSION, A
WOMAN CLAIMING THAT SHE PUSHED
DEBUNGEE INTO THE RIVER AND
WATCHED AS HIS BODY FLOATED
AWAY.
AGAIN, INFORMATION NOT PURSUED
UNTIL MONTHS LATER.
THE DEFICIENCIES IN THE
INVESTIGATION WERE SO
SUBSTANTIAL, THE REPORT
CONCLUDES, THAT THEY SUPPORT AN
ALLEGATION OF NEGLECT OF DUTY
AND, INDEED, THAT'S THE FINDING
LEVELED AT THREE THUNDER BAY
OFFICERS, INCLUDING AN ACTING
INSPECTOR.
AS TO WHY POLICE WOULD HAVE
NEGLECTED THEIR DUTY IT CAN BE
REASONABLY INFERRED, THE REPORT
SAYS, THAT IT WAS
BASED ON THE DECEASED'S
INDIGENOUS STATUS.
>> THEY KEPT USING THE PHRASE
"INDIGENOUS" AND THIS HAPPENED
BECAUSE THE PERSON WAS
INDIGENOUS THAT THEY WERE
INVESTIGATING AND BECAUSE THEY
WERE INDIGENOUS, INDIGENOUS.
SO IT WAS A VINDICATION
SOMEWHAT.
>> Reporter: NOW THIS IS NOT
THE FIRST TIME THAT THUNDER BAY
POLICE SERVICE HAS BEEN ACCUSED
OF RACISM NOR THE FIRST CALL FOR
THE CHIEF TO RESIGN.
AN INQUEST TWO YEARS AGO INTO
THE DEATH OF SEVEN INDIGENOUS
TEENAGERS IN THIS CITY PUT
POLICING UNDER THE MICROSCOPE.
THERE'S CURRENTLY TWO OTHER
INDEPENDENT REVIEWS ONGOING OF
POLICE SERVICE AND THE POLICE
BOARD, QUESTIONING WHETHER
RACISM IS IN FACT SYSTEMIC IN
THE WAY THAT THUNDER BAY'S
INDIGENOUS COMMUNITY IS POLICED.
>> Rosemary: SO TOMORROW THE
RAINY RIVER CHIEFS RELEASE THIS
REVIEW PUBLICLY AT A PRESS
CONFERENCE BUT WE UNDERSTAND
THAT THUNDER BAY
POLICE ALSO HAVE A COPY OF THIS.
WHAT ARE THEY SAYING TODAY ABOUT
IT?
>> Reporter: WE DID REACH OUT
TO THEM TODAY, ROSIE, AND THEY
REFUSED TO SAY ANYTHING, CITING
ISSUES OF CONFIDENTIALITY
AND PRIVACY ISSUES OF ALL OF THE
PARTIES INVOLVED.
AS FOR THE CHIEF AND THE CALLS
FOR HIS RESIGNATION, THUNDER BAY
POLICE OFFERED NO COMMENT.
>> Rosemary: GILIAN, THANK YOU
FOR THIS.
WE'LL KEEP TRACKING THIS STORY
BUT IF YOU WANT TO SEE MORE OF
GILLIAN'S
INITIAL INVESTIGATION IT'S
ONLINE.
HER
DOCUMENTARY "DEATH IN THUNDER
BAY:NO FOUL PLAY," JUST HEAD TO
"THE FIFTH ESTATE'S" YouTube
PAGE.
RACE IS A SERIOUS FLASHPOINT IN
THUNDER BAY.
HERE'S AN EXAMPLE FROM LAST WEEK
WEEK.
EGGS WERE HURLED AT TWO PASSING
MEN FROM PASSING CARS.
THE PAPER WAS CRITICIZED FOR ITS
HEADLINE AND THE CHOICE OF
WORDS.
AND THE NEXT DAY "THE CHRONICLE
JOURNAL" ISSUED AN APOLOGY.
THEY SAID THAT IT WAS
INAPPROPRIATE AND INCONSIDERATE.
THE EGGING INCIDENT IS BEING
INVESTIGATED.
BUT IT IS NOT THE FIRST OF ITS
KIND AS FAR AS DRIVE-BY ASSAULTS
IN THUNDER BAY.
THERE'S FREQUENT COMPLAINTS OF
SIMILAR INCIDENTS FROM FIRST
NATION KIDS ATTENDING SCHOOL
THERE AND AN INDIGENOUS WOMAN
WAS KILLED WHEN A TRAILER HITCH
WAS THROWN AT HER FROM A MOVING
VEHICLE IN 2017.
THE NUMBERS APPEAR TO BACK UP
SOME OF THESE CONCERNS TOO.
IN ITS LATEST REPORTS,
STATISTICS
CANADA FOUND ALMOST ONE-THIRD OF
REPORTED HATE CRIMES IN THIS
COUNTRY IN 2015 AGAINST
INDIGENOUS PEOPLES HAPPENED IN
THUNDER BAY.
>>> MEANWHILE POLICE IN
HAMILTON, ONTARIO ARE
INVESTIGATING A WEIRD,
SURPRISING CRIME SPREE LAST
NIGHT.
ADRIENNE, YOU ARE DIGGING
INTO THIS ONE.
>> Adrienne: IT'S VERY
STRANGE, ROSIE.
OFFICERS ARE ON THE HUNT FOR
SUSPECTS AFTER A MASKED GROUP
DESCENDED ON A POPULAR STRIP AND
THEY WERE LEAVING THE COMMUNITY
SHAKEN AND AN AWFUL LOT OF
WINDOWS SHATTERED.
SO ABOUT 30 PEOPLE DRESSED IN
BLACK APPEARED LAST NIGHT.
THEY WERE SETTING OFF FIREWORKS,
THROWING ROCKS
THROUGH THE WINDOWS OF LOCAL
BUSINESSES AND FOR THOSE OUT FOR
AN EVENING IN THE HAMILTON
DOWNTOWN IT WAS FRIGHTENING.
RON CHARLES SPOKE WITH THOSE
PICKING UP THE PIECES.
>> Reporter: DONNA POWELL
SPENT THE MORNING SWEEPING UP
THE BROKEN GLASS FROM THE
WINDOWS OF HER REAL ESTATE
OFFICE.
>> I'M JUST SICK, SICK, THAT
SOMEONE WOULD THINK THIS WAS AN
APPROPRIATE THING TO DO TO
BUSINESS OWNERS AND JUST LIKE A
RANDOM ACT OF VIOLENCE AGAINST
PEOPLE WHO CAN'T DEFEND
THEMSELVES.
>> Reporter: ALMOST ALL OF THE
WINDOWS AT THIS NEWLY OPENED
DONUT SHOP WERE ALSO BROKEN,
LEAVING THE OWNERS WONDERING WHY
THEM.
>> I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS AN
ANARCHIST GROUP AND I DON'T KNOW
WHO THEY WERE BUT, YOU KNOW,
EVERYONE IS QUESTIONING WHY, WHY
INDEPENDENT SMALL BUSINESSES ARE
BEING TARGETED.
I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS TARGETED.
>> Reporter: POLICE SAY THAT
THERE WAS ABOUT THEIR 100,000
DOLLARS WORTH OF DAMAGE.
IT WASN'T
JUST THE TARGETED BUSINESSES
AFFECTED, HANNAH RALPH AND HER
FAMILY WATCHED IT ALL IN TERROR
FROM THEIR HOME.
>> MY BROTHER WHO IS 5 WAS
RUNNING AROUND THE HOUSE
TERRIFIED AND HE WAS CRYING.
MY PARENTS WERE TRYING TO FIGURE
OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON.
>> Reporter: HAMILTON POLICE
ARE STILL INVESTIGATING.
>> IT'S TOO EARLY IN THE
INVESTIGATION TO IDENTIFY WHO
THE GROUP WAS AND WE DO KNOW
THAT THERE WAS ANARCHISTS BOOK
FAIR AT WESTDALE HIGH SCHOOL
OVER THE WEEKEND SO WE ARE
INVESTIGATING TO SEE IF THERE'S
ANY POTENTIAL LINKS TO ANY
PEOPLE ATTENDING THAT.
>> Reporter: THE GROUP'S
BANNER WITH THE ANARCHIST SLOGAN
"WE ARE THE UNGOVERNABLE" SEEMS
TO HAVE BEEN USED AS A PREVIOUS
PROTEST IN HAMILTON.
IT'S IDENTICAL TO THE ONE
CARRIED AT THIS ANTI-POLICE
BRUTALITY PROTEST FOUR YEARS AGO
WHICH ALSO INCLUDED MASKED
DEMONSTRATORS AND FIREWORKS BUT
NO BROKEN WINDOWS.
THE RESPONSE FROM PEOPLE HERE IN
HAMILTON TO THE MAYHEM, MESSAGES
OF LOVE AND HOPE ON THE PLYWOOD
COVERING THE SMASHED WINDOWS,
PATRONS PACKING THIS BUSINESS TO
SHOW THEIR SUPPORT.
>> HAMILTON IS VERY SUPPORTIVE
OF ALL OF OUR GREAT STREETS AND
RESTAURANTS AND BARS.
THE FLOURISHING BARS AND
RESTAURANTS THAT ARE HAPPENING
IN HAMILTON WE'RE VERY PROUD OF
SO WE WANT THAT TO CONTINUE AND
I KNOW THAT HAMILTONIANS WILL
CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THEM.
>> Reporter: NOT EVERYONE IS
HAPPY WITH THE RAPIDLY
FLOURISHING CITY WEST OF
TORONTO.
THERE ARE ACTIVISTS WHO CALL IT
GENTRIFICATION, RESPONSIBLE FOR
RISING RENTS AND PUSHING PEOPLE
OUT.
RON CHARLES, CBC NEWS, HAMILTON.
>> Adrienne: AND SOME
SELF-DESCRIBED ANARCHISTS HAVE
TARGETED WHAT THEY SEE AS
GENTRIFICATION IN HAMILTON
BEFORE.
LAST SUMMER A FEW LOCAL
BUSINESSES IN A CONDO
DEVELOPMENT HAD WINDOWS SMASHED
OR WEIRDLY LOCKS GLUED.
AND AN ANONYMOUS POST ON AN
ANARCHIST SITE SAID IT REMINDED
PROFITEERS AND BOOSTERS OF
GENTRIFICATION THAT THEIR
PRESENCE WAS UNWELCOME.
>> Rosemary: TO THE U.S. NOW
AND THERE'S A LOT THAT WE STILL
DON'T KNOW ABOUT DONALD TRUMP'S
PLAN
TO SLAP TARIFFS ON STEEL AND
ALUMINUM IMPORTS BUT THERE'S
REALLY ONLY ONE BURNING
QUESTION -- WILL THERE BE
EXEMPTIONS.
HERE'S HOW THE U.S. COMMERCE
SECRETARY ANSWERED THAT ONE
TODAY...
>> WE SHALL SEE.
I KNOW THAT THERE WERE A LOT OF
MINISTERS FROM A LOT OF
COUNTRIES THAT HAVE BEEN TALKING
WITH THE PRESIDENT AND THEY'VE
BEEN TALKING WITH ME AND THEY'VE
BEEN TALKING WITH OTHERS.
WE'LL SEE.
THE PRESIDENT MAKES THE
DECISIONS.
ROIRS CANADA WOULD
LIKELY BE THE HARDIST HIT
COUNTRY IN ALL OF THIS AND AS
PAUL HUNTER SAYS OTHERS THINK
THAT THIS COUNTRY SHOULD BE
EXEMPT.
>> Reporter: SETTING ASIDE IF
THE TARIFFS WOULD DO ANYTHING TO
BRING BACK THE ONCE BUT NO
LONGER BOOMING U.S. STEEL
INDUSTRY, WHAT SO MANY AROUND
THE WORLD WANT TO KNOW IS
WHETHER INDEED THEY'LL APPLY TO
EVEN U.S. ALLIES.
WITH SOME REPUBLICANS NOW
IMPLORING
THEM AGAINST THAT.
>> YOU'RE MAKING A HUGE MISTAKE
HERE.
GO AFTER CHINA, NOT THE REST OF
THE WORLD.
>> Reporter: CHINA MAKES ABOUT
HALF OF THE WORLD'S STEEL AND
MORE THAN HALF OF ITS ALUMINUM,
FLOODING MARKETS BY SELLING IT
CHEAPLY.
>> President Donald Trump:
BECAUSE WITHOUT STEEL...
>> Reporter: BUT TRUMP'S
SWEEPING TARIFFS ANNOUNCED
THURSDAY IN THE NAME OF NATIONAL
SECURITY --
>> President Donald Trump: IT
WILL BE 25% FOR STEEL AND 10%
FOR ALUMINUM.
>> Reporter: ARE SET TO TARGET
NOT JUST CHINA BUT POSSIBLY ALL
MAKERS OF STEEL AND ALUMINUM,
NOT LEAST CANADA WHICH CALLS THE
TARIFFS "ABSOLUTELY
UNACCEPTABLE."
>> YOU WANT TO DO THESE KINDS OF
THINGS WITH A SCALPEL, NOT A
CHAINSAW.
I DON'T THINK THAT WE NEED TO
BLOCK CANADIAN STEEL IN THE NAME
OF NATIONAL SECURITY.
THEY'RE ANNOYING BUT THEY'RE
NICE -- TOO NICE, BUT WE DON'T
FEAR A WAR WITH CANADA.
>> YOU'VE GOT THE EUROPEANS
THREATENING US AND PRESIDENT IS
THREATENING BACK.
THIS TRADE WAR IS DIVIDING US
FROM OUR ALLIES AND MAKES NO
SENSE.
>> Reporter: BUT UNDERLINES
THE
U.S. DIRECTOR OF TRADE POLICY --
>> THE PRESIDENT WAS QUITE CLEAR
THAT WE CAN'T HAVE A COUNTRY
THAT CAN DEFEND ITSELF AND
PROSPER WITHOUT AN ALUMINUM AND
STEEL INDUSTRY.
>> Reporter: THUS, HE SAYS,
TRUMP'S POSITION IS NO
EXEMPTIONS FOR ANY COUNTRY, NOT
EVEN ALLIES.
>> AS SOON AS YOU EXEMPT ONE
COUNTRY THEN YOU HAVE TO EXEMPT
ANOTHER COUNTRY AND SO IT'S A
SLIPPERY SLOPE.
>> Reporter: FINAL DETAILS ARE
STILL BEING SORTED AND THOUGH
TRUMP WILL BE PRESSED TO EASE
UP, THE PLAN AT LEAST FOR THE
MOMENT IS CLEAR AND BLUNT -- THE
TARIFFS WILL APPLY TO EVERYONE.
PAUL HUNTER, CBC NEWS,
WASHINGTON.
>> Rosemary: THE PRESIDENT'S
POSITION SHOULDN'T BE A SURPRISE
TO ANY OF US THOUGH.
HE DID CAMPAIGN ON AN AMERICA
FIRST AGENDA AND THE FLURRY OF
TRADE ACTIONS AGAINST CANADA
ALREADY HIGHLIGHT JUST HOW
VULNERABLE OUR COUNTRY IS TO
U.S. PROTECTIONISM.
FIRST, IT WAS AN OBVIOUS ONE,
SOFTWOOD LUMBER AND THEN THERE
WERE THOSE MASSIVE DUTIES
AGAINST BOMBARDIER PLANES.
THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION THOUGH
HAS ALSO TARGETED CANADIAN SOLAR
PANELS, NEWSPRINT, AND WELDED
PIPES.
>> Adrienne: A SASKATCHEWAN
MAN IS "GOING PUBLIC" TONIGHT
WITH A FRUSTRATING STORY
INVOLVING HIS INSURANCE COMPANY.
IT DECLARED HIS TRUCK A WRITEOFF
AFTER AN ACCIDENT BUT THEN IT
WAS REPAIRED ANYWAY.
LEAVING HIM WITH A CAR THAT HE
DIDN'T REALLY FEEL SAFE TO
DRIVE.
AT LEAST NOT UNTIL ROSA
MARCHITELLI GOT INVOLVED.
>> THE OVERHANG... THIS IS WHERE
THE HEADLIGHT DOESN'T LINE UP
DOWN HERE.
AND THE HEADLIGHT IS PUSHED IN
STILL AND THERE'S A BIG GAP ON
THIS SIDE.
>> Reporter: AND THE LIST GOES
ON.
>> THERE'S ISSUES WITH THE
PAINT, THERE'S ISSUES WITH THE
CLEAR COAT.
>> Reporter: CHRIS SCRIVEN
THOUGHT HIS PICK-UP CAR WAS
HEADED FOR THE SCRAPYARD AFTER
IT WAS LABELLED AS A TOTAL LOSS
BY HIS INSURANCE COMPANY.
INSTEAD THE COMPANY, S.G.I.,
SASKATCHEWAN'S PROVINCIAL
INSURANCE, SENT IT TO ONE OF ITS
ACCREDITED AUTO BODY SHOPS.
SCRIVEN SAID THAT THEY REPAIRED
THE VEHICLE
WITHOUT TELLING HIM OR GETTING
HIS WRITTEN APPROVAL.
THAT'S AGAINST THE RULES.
>> S.G.I. GAVE ME A WORK BACK
WITH ONE WORKING HEADLIGHT AND A
BENT FRAME AND THE WHEEL
ALIGNMENT WAS WAY OUT AND IT
WOULDN'T EVEN START.
>> Reporter: HE AND HIS
GIRLFRIEND TOOK THE TRUCK TO
ANOTHER MECHANIC WHO FOUND
ANOTHER $9,000 IN DAMAGE.
THAT MECHANIC ALSO WARNED THE
COUPLE NOT TO DRIVE THE TRUCK
LONG DISTANCES BECAUSE IT'S
STRUCTURALLY UNSOUND.
>> THAT'S THE POINT OF PAYING
INTO INSURANCE EVERY MONTH AND
THEN JUST TO BASICALLY HAVE THEM
TELL YOU THAT YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN
AND IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT YOUR
VEHICLE NEEDS REPAIRS, WE THINK
THAT IT'S DONE PERFECTLY FINE
EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT.
AND THEY BASICALLY SHOO YOU OUT
OF THE DOOR.
IT'S NOT FAIR.
>> Reporter: THE INSURANCE
COMPANY TELLS "GO PUBLIC" THAT
THE REPAIRS WERE DONE TO
INDUSTRY STANDARDS BUT ADMITS
THAT SCRIVEN'S CASE WAS NOT
HANDLED WELL.
>> WE DEFINITELY TAKE OWNERSHIP
OF THE FACT
THAT THERE WAS A COMMUNICATIONS
BREAKDOWN ON OUR END.
IT'S DEFINITELY A LEARNING
EXPERIENCE FOR US.
THIS IS A VERY RARE AND UNUSUAL
CASE.
>> Reporter: HE SAYS THAT
AFTER THE INSURANCE ADJUSTOR
DETERMINED THAT THE TRUCK WAS A
TOTAL LOSS THAT THE AUTO BODY
SHOP GAVE IT A SECOND LOOK AND
DECIDED THAT THEY COULD FIX THE
DAMAGE FOR LESS.
SO IT DIDN'T NEED TO BE A
WRITE-OFF AFTER ALL.
AS FOR DOING THE REPAIRS WITHOUT
THE OWNER'S PERMISSION --
>> S.G.I. WILL FOLLOW-UP WITH
THIS REPAIR SHOP TO MAKE IT
VERY CLEAR WHAT OUR EXPECTATIONS
ARE.
>> AND YOU LOOK FOR THE QUALITY
OF THE REPAIRS.
>> Reporter: HE HAS BEEN A
VEHICLE
APPRAISER FOR DECADES AND KNOWS
THE IMPORTANCE OF GETTING
REPAIRS DONE RIGHT.
THE ADVICE?
BE PROACTIVE AND DON'T ASSUME
THAT THE INSURANCE COMPANY WILL
MAKE THINGS RIGHT.
>> YOU HAVE A RIGHT IT TAKE YOUR
CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP OF YOUR
CHOICE AND HAVE IT REPAIRED BACK
TO PRE-LOSS CONDITION.
>> Reporter: AS FOR CHRIS
SCRIVEN, THE MAN IN OUR STORY,
HIS TRUCK WAS SOON BACK AT
ANOTHER REPAIR SHOP.
AFTER "GO PUBLIC" CONTACTED THE
INSURANCE COMPANY IT AGREED TO
REOPEN HIS FILE AND OFFERED HIM
SOME MONEY AND SOME ADDITIONAL
REPAIRS THAT HE SAYS THAT HE CAN
LIVE WITH.
ROSA MARCHITELLI, CBC NEWS,
CALGARY.
>> Adrienne: IF YOU'RE IN AN
ACCIDENT AND YOUR INSURANCE
COMPANY SAYS THAT YOUR CAR IS A
WRITE-OFF CONSIDER THIS -- YOU
DON'T HAVE TO IMMEDIATELY ACCEPT
THE AMOUNT OFFERED FOR YOUR CAR.
YOU CAN ASK FOR THE APPRAISAL
REPORT TO SEE HOW THE VALUE WAS
DETERMINED.
AND YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO SOME
RESEARCH OR HIRE YOUR OWN
APPRAISER TO COMPARE.
AND IF YOU DON'T THANK YOU ARE
BEING OFFERED MARKET PRICE YOU
CAN
TRY TO NEGOTIATE FOR MORE MONEY.
IF AN AGREEMENT CAN'T BE REACHED
AN INDEPENDENT ARBITRATOR CAN BE
BROUGHT IN TO HELP.
AND IF ALL ELSE FAILS YOU BET
THAT YOU CAN TAKE YOUR INSURER
TO COURT.
IF YOU HAVE A STORY THAT YOU
WANT OUR "GO PUBLIC" TEAM TO
LOOK INTO, EMAIL THE DETAILS TO
GOPUBLIC@CBC.CA.
>> Rosemary: HERE'S WHAT ELSE
WE'RE WORKING ON TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL"... TRAPPED FOR WEEKS
BUT FINALLY A SIGN OF RELIEF.
AN AID CONVOY IS READY TO ROLL
INTO EASTERN GHOUTA.
>> Adrienne: PLUS, TRACKED FOR
AN HOUR BY A COUGAR.
THE INCREDIBLE SURVIVAL STORY OF
A VANCOUVER ISLAND MAN.
>> Rosemary: PLUS, CANADA'S
NEWEST FIRST NATION MIGHT ALSO
BE ITS LARGEST.
WE'LL TAKE YOU INSIDE OF THE
CONTROVERSY OVER WHO GETS STATUS
AND WHO DOESN'T.
>> HOW MANY TIMES DID YOU PHONE
HOME.
HOW MANY TIMES DID YOU TRAVEL TO
NEWFOUNDLAND?
HOW MANY TIMES YOU WENT BERRY
PICKING?
DO Y
(*)

>[Applause]
>> AND THE OSCAR GOES TO... "THE
SHAPE OF WATER."
[Applause]
>> Rosemary: THERE YOU GO, THE
MOMENT THAT EVERYONE WAITED FOR,
THE HAMILTON AND TORONTO MOVIE
THAT WAS ALSO DONE, OF COURSE,
BY GUILLERMO DEL TORO, THE
STATUE FOR BEST DIRECTOR.
>> AND THE WINNER IS... GARY
OLDMAN...
[Applause]
>> Rosemary: AND GARY OLDMAN
IS LOOKING UNLIKE THE ROLE THAT
HE WON FOR, HE WAS COMPLETELY
TRANSFORMED AS YOU CAN SEE THERE
INTO WINSTON CHURCHILL FOR "THE
DARKEST HOUR" AND THAT MOVIE NOT
SURPRISINGLY WON BEST MAKEUP AND
HAIR.
>> IF I MAY BE SO HONOURED TO
HAVE ALL OF THE FEMALE NOMINEES
IN EVERY CATEGORY STAND WITH ME
IN THIS ROOM TONIGHT.
THE ACTORS, MERLE, IF YOU DO IT
EVERYONE ELSE WILL.
COME ON.
THE FILMMAKERS AND THE PRODUCERS
AND THE DIRECTORS...
>> Rosemary: AND THAT WAS A
FAIRLY MAGICAL MOMENT FOR BEST
ACTRESS FRANCIS McDORMAND, SHE
ASKED FOR ALL OF THE WOMEN
NOMINEES TO STAND UP, SHE TOOK
HOME AN AWARD FOR "THREE
BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE OF EBBING,
MISSOURI."
>>> RESIDENTS IN B.C. ARE TRYING
TO COME TO GRIPS WITH SHOCKING
ALLEGATIONS AGAINST A BELOVED
FORMER MAYOR
LUKE STRIMBOLD HAS BEEN CHARGED
WITH
SEX CRIMES INVOLVING YOUNG
PEOPLE.
HE WAS ONCE CELEBRATED ACROSS
THE PROVINCE AND HAD POWERFUL
CONNECTIONS.
AND AS ANGELA STERRITT REPORTS
FROM THE COMMUNITY, A POSITION
OF GREAT TRUST.
>> Reporter: THE SMALL
COMMUNITY OF BURNS LAKE, B.C.,
IS STILL REELING FROM THE NEWS
OF THE ARREST.
LUKE STRIMBOLD GREW UP HERE AND
WENT ON TO BECOME THE MAYOR OF
THE TOWN
WHICH INCLUDES PART OF LAKE
BABINE NATION.
>> WE SAW A LOT OF POTENTIAL.
YOU KNOW, OF WHAT HE COULD DO.
BUT THIS IS NOT WHAT WE HAD IN
MIND.
YOU KNOW, DESTROYING THE LIVES
OF YOUNG PEOPLE, IF IT'S TRUE.
>> Reporter: STRIMBOLD IS WELL
KNOWN ACROSS THE PROVINCE.
HE WAS THE YOUNGEST MAYOR IN
B.C. HISTORY AND WAS UNTIL
FRIDAY THE MEMBERSHIP CHAIR OF
THE PROVINCIAL LIBERAL PARTY.
THAT'S THE SAME DAY THAT NEWS
BROKE THAT THE 27-YEAR-OLD
STANDS ACCUSED OF 24 COUNTS OF
SEX-RELATED OFFENSES.
SOME ALLEGEDLY INVOLVING PEOPLE
UNDER THE AGE OF 16.
THE ALLEGED INCIDENTS HAPPENED
BETWEEN 2015 AND 2017.
NONE OF THE ALLEGATIONS HAVE
BEEN PROVEN IN COURT.
HE'S BEEN RELEASED ON BAIL BUT
IS NOT ALLOWED NEAR SCHOOLS AND
PLAYGROUNDS.
BEFORE HE BECAME MAYOR IN 2011,
STRIMBOLD WORKED AS A YOUTH
COUNSELLOR AT AN INDIGENOUS CAMP
CAMP.
>> IT'S SHAKEN THE WHOLE
COMMUNITY, EVERYONE IN THIS
COMMUNITY.
IT'S FAR REACHING, THAT'S FOR
SURE.
>> Reporter: AMID THE SHOCK
HERE, CONCERN FOR STRIMBOLD FROM
A FRIEND.
>> IT'S GIVEN ME A LOT OF MIXED
EMOTIONS AND MIXED FEELINGS.
HE WORKED WELL WITH US AND HE
LISTENED TO US AND, IN FACT, A
LOT OF OUR ELDERS HAD A LOT OF
RESPECT FOR HIM.
>> Reporter: BUT THE
ALLEGATIONS HAVE DEEPLY SHAKEN
THAT RESPECT.
>> WHEN I TALKED TO SHELDON
KENNEDY ON FRIDAY EVENING, HE
TALKED ME THROUGH SOME OF THIS
BECAUSE I WAS VERY ANGRY WHEN I
FIRST HEARD ABOUT IT.
>> Reporter: FORMER NHL PLAYER
SHELDON KENNEDY IS A SEXUAL
ABUSE SURVIVOR AND HE'S NOW
PLANNING TO COME TO BURNS LAKE
TO SPEAK TO THE COMMUNITY.
FRIENDS SAY THIS IS WHERE THE
STRIMBOLD FAMILY BUSINESS WAS.
IT WAS SUPPOSED TO REOPEN WITHIN
THE YEAR BUT ITS DOORS HAVE
REMAINED CLOSED.
NO ONE FROM THE RCMP WAS
AVAILABLE FOR AN INTERVIEW BUT
THEY SAY THAT THERE COULD BE
MORE ALLEGED VICTIMS.
THAT WOULD ONLY MEAN MORE PAIN
TO AN ALREADY DEVASTATED
COMMUNITY.
ANGELA STERRITT, CBC NEWS, BURNS
LAKE, BRITISH COLUMBIA.
>> Adrienne: THURSDAY IS
INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY AND
THIS WEEKEND WOMEN AROUND THE
WORLD TOOK TO THE STREETS FOR
EQUALITY AND HUMAN RIGHTS.
IN TONIGHT'S "DISPATCH," NAHLAH
AYED LOOKS AT HOW FAR WOMEN IN
THE U.K. HAVE COME AND WHAT'S
STILL LEFT TO FIGHT FOR.
>> I'VE HAD A LIFE, YOU KNOW,
WHICH WOMEN A HUNDRED YEARS AGO
COULDN'T HAVE DREAMED OF.
BUT I THINK THAT SOME OF THE
INGRAINED CULTURAL BELIEFS THAT
HAVE EXISTED FOR THOUSANDS OF
YEARS WILL TAKE LONGER TO BREAK
DOWN.
>> Adrienne: THIS MAN IS A
FATHER IN SYRIA'S EASTERN GHOUTA
WHO BELIEVES THAT HIS SON IS
BURIED IN THE RUBBLE, THE VERY
RUBBLE THAT HE'S STANDING ON.
HE SAYS THAT THE WAR HAS ALREADY
KILLED EVERY MEMBER OF THE
FOOTBALL TEAM HIS SON USED TO
PLAY WITH.
THE UNITED NATIONS SAYS THAT
THEY CAN NOW DELIVER SOME AID TO
THAT VERY SAME BESIEGED SUBURBAN
AREA NEAR DAMASCUS.
A CONVOY IS READY TO HELP
ROUGHLY 70,000 PEOPLE WHO ARE
TRAPPED ON WHAT HAS BEEN FOR
WEEKS NOW ONE OF THE DEADLIEST
FRONTS OF SYRIA'S WAR -- EASTERN
GHOUTA.
RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT ARE BOLSTERING
THE ASSAD GOVERNMENT'S EFFORT TO
BREAK THE REBELS IN EASTERN
GHOUTA.
THESE SATELLITE PHOTOS SHOW THE
RESULTS OF THE AIR CAMPAIGN.
THIS IS TWO WEEKS AGO, AND THIS
IS FRIDAY.
BUILDINGS WERE BATTERED TO
RUBBLE AND THE LAND CRATERED AND
SCORCHED.
PRO-ASSAD FORCES HAVE ALLOWED A
FIVE-HOUR PAUSE FOR CIVILIANS TO
FLEE BUT SO FAR THERE ARE
REPORTEDLY NO TAKERS.
ACCORDING TO RUSSIA THEY'RE HELD
BACK BY THE REBELS.
SOME ON THE GROUND SAY THEY'RE
SIMPLY TOO AFRAID TO LEAVE
SHELTERS.
SO AS THE GOVERNMENT FORCES
ADVANCE CIVILIANS RUN AND RUN
AGAIN.
ACCORDING TO THIS UNVERIFIED
VIDEO, FRIDAY IN THE EASTERN
GHOUTA VILLAGE OF DUMA, EVEN AS
THE
CIVIL DEFENCE WORKERS TRIED TO
PULL THE INJURED TO SAFETY...
AND AN AIRSTRIKE HIT NEARBY.
>> [speaking foreign
language].
>> WHAT WE ARE SEEING IN EASTERN
GHOUTA AND ELSEWHERE IN SYRIA
ARE LIKELY WAR CRIMES AND
POTENTIALLY CRIMES AGAINST
HUMANITY.
>> Adrienne: THE U.N.
ANNOUNCED THEY'LL BE ABLE TO
DELIVER THE AID TO DUMA
TOMORROW.
THE CONVOY SHOULD
START IN A FEW HOURS.
RELIEF FOR PEOPLE CAGED BY THIS
WAR.
SYRIA'S SHIFTING BRUTAL
BATTLEFIELD ISN'T ONLY A
HUMANITARIAN DISASTER, IT COULD
BE AN INCUBATOR OF WIDER
CONFLICT AND THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S
BRINGING RIVALS ONCE SEPARATED
BY DISTANCE INTO DIRECT
CONFRONTATION.
LAST MONTH U.S. WARPLANES KILLED
DOZENS, MAYBE HUNDREDS, OF
RUSSIAN CONTRACTORS IN SYRIA
THE CASUALTY FIGURES CAN'T BE
CONFIRMED BUT AT THE UPPER RANGE
THAT IS THE BIGGEST AMOUNT SINCE
THE LAST COLD WAR.
THEN THERE'S ISRAEL AND IRAN,
BITTER
RIVALS INCREASINGLY IN EACH
OTHER'S GUN SIGHTS.
DEREK STOFFEL WENT TO THE
NORTHERN BORDER WITH SYRIA WHERE
THE TWO SIDES HAVE ALREADY
CLASHED.
>> Reporter: ISRAEL'S MILITARY
IS DUG IN.
THIS EXERCISE ON THE ISRAELI
SIDE OF THE GOLAD HEIGHTS.
IT'S WHERE THE TROOPS AND THE
TANKS ARE ON HIGH ALERT.
THE BIG CONCERN FOR THE ARMY IS
THE FACT THAT THE COUNTRY'S ARCH
ENEMY, IRAN IS NOW ON
ISRAEL'S DOORSTEP.
THAT IS SYRIA RIGHT BEHIND ME.
IRAN HAS A MAJOR MILITARY
PRESENCE THERE AND SO THE
THREATS THEY HAVE TRADED WITH
ISRAEL FOR DECADES HAVE
RATCHETED UP IN THE PAST TWO
WEEKS.
IN THE CROSSHAIRS, THAT'S AN
IRANIAN DRONE FLYING OVER
ISRAELI AIR SPACE.
THE DEVICE WAS DESTROYED BY
ISRAEL'S MILITARY.
>> [speaking foreign
language].
>> Reporter: THEN INSIDE OF
SYRIA THE ISRAELIS TARGETED THE
IRANIAN COMMAND VEHICLE
CONTROLLING THE DRONE BUT IN THE
EARLY MORNING
BATTLE THE ISRAELIS LOST A
FIGHTER JET IN THE HAIL OF A
SYRIAN ANTI-AIRCRAFT FIRE.
THE F-16 CRASHED RIGHT HERE.
IT WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT
ISRAEL LOST A WAR PLANE IN
DECADES, BUT MORE SIGNIFICANTLY
IT WAS THE FIRST DIRECT MILITARY
ENGAGEMENT BETWEEN ISRAEL AND
IRAN EVER.
WHILE TENSIONS HAVE SETTLED
SINCE THE INCIDENT THERE ARE NEW
WORRIES NOW ABOUT NEW REGIONAL
CONFLICT.
WHAT SOME, INCLUDING THIS FORMER
ISRAELI NATIONAL SECURITY
ADVISOR, ARE CALLING "THE FIRST
NORTHERN WAR."
>> ISRAEL WILL HAVE TO FACE TWO
FOES AT THE SAME TIME, FWHON
SYRIA AND ONE IN LEBANON.
>> Reporter: AND THERE'S
THREAT FROM THE IRAN-BACKED
GROUP HEZBOLLAH WHICH HAS UP TO
150,000 ROCKETS THAT COULD BE
AIMED AT ISRAEL.
>> THIS IS IN EVERY PLACE IN
ISRAEL HIT BY ITS ROCKETS AND
MISSILES.
WHAT THE IRANS
WANT IS THESE ROCKETS WOULD BE
MUCH MORE PRECISE.
>> Reporter: THERE WAS A WAR
BETWEEN HEZBOLLAH AND ISRAEL
JUST OVER A DECADE AGO.
BUT SINCE THEN THIS ISRAELI
RESERVE CORPS MAJOR WARNS THAT
HEZBOLLAH HAS BECOME STRONGER.
>> THEY HOLD TANKS AND THEY HAVE
MUCH BETTER CAPABILITY THAN
BEFORE AND THEY KNOW HOW TO
MANOEUVRE BIG FORCES AND THEY
LEARNED HOW TO OCCUPY A VILLAGE
IN SYRIA.
THEY CONDUCTED MASSIVE BATTLES
THERE.
AND THIS KNOWLEDGE IS BEING
BROUGHT TO OUR BORDER.
>> Reporter: ISRAEL'S PRIME
MINISTER RECENTLY TOURED THE
NORTH.
[speaking foreign language]
WHERE HE WARNED THAT THE
COUNTRY'S ENEMIES SHOULD NOT
TEST ISRAEL.
AT THE CANADA CENTRE, ISRAEL'S
LARGEST ICE RINK JUST SOUTH OF
THE BORDER WITH LEBANON, THESE
ISRAELIS ARE TAKING THE WARNINGS
OF WAR IN STRIDE.
>> I STILL FEEL VERY SAFE IN MY
COUNTRY BECAUSE I TRUST THAT MY
MILITARY, THE IDEA THAT THEY'LL
PROTECT ME.
>> Reporter: NEXT WEEK
AMERICAN SOLDIERS WILL JOIN WITH
ISRAEL'S MILITARY AS THE
TRAINING EXERCISES CONTINUE.
THE FOCUS WILL BE A SIMULATED
MISSILE ATTACK AS THE TENSIONS
WITH IRAN CONTINUE.
DEREK STOFFEL, CBC NEWS, ON THE
ISRAELI SIDE OF THE GOLAN
HEIGHTS.
>> Rosemary: WOMEN HAVE HAD
THE
VOTE IN THE U.K. FOR PRECISELY
100 YEARS AND TODAY THEY MARCHED
IN THE STREETS TO MARK HOW FAR
THEY HAVE COME AND HOW FAR THEY
HAVE TO GO.
NAHLAH AYED HAS THAT STORY IN
OUR DISPATCH FROM LONDON NEXT,
BUT, FIRST...
THIS THURSDAY MARKS
INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY AND
THE BANK OF CANADA WILL UNVEIL
THE NEW $10 BILL.
IT
FEATURES VIOLA DESMOND.
DESMOND WAS PART OF THE CIVIL
RIGHTS MOVMENT IN NOVA SCOTIA IN
THE 1940s.
SHE STOOD HER GROUND BY SITTING
IN A WHITE'S ONLY
SECTION IN A MOVIE THEATRE AND
BECAME A PIMERE FOR RIGHTS OF
BLACK CANADIANS.
DESMOND WILL REPLACE SIR JOHN A.
MacDONALD ON THE FRONT OF THE
$10 BILL.
>> [CHANTING]
>> Adrienne: IN LONDON
TODAY THOUSANDS MARCHED FROM
PARLIAMENT TO TRAFALGAR SQUARE
CALLING FOR GENDER EQUALITY AND
AN END
TO SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND TO
CELEBRATE A CENTURY SINCE
BRITAIN FIRST GAVE WOMEN THE
VOTE.
THE MARCH COMES FOUR
DAYS AHEAD OF INTERNATIONAL
WOMEN'S DAY, OF COURSE.
THE BRITISH WOMEN WHO FOUGHT SO
HARD TO SECURE THE RIGHT TO VOTE
IN 1918 WERE CALLED
SUFFRAGETTES.
IN TONIGHT'S "DISPATCH FROM
LONDON," NAHLAH
AYED TAKES US BACK TO THE FUTURE
AS SHE LOOKS AT HOW FAR WOMEN
HAVE
COME AND THE STRUGGLE STILL
AHEAD.
(*)
>> Reporter: EMMELINE
PANKHURST, THE NAME THAT IN THE
LAND OF THE SUFFRAGETTES ALWAYS
HAD A SOLID PLACE IN HISTORY.
THEY WHO LITERALLY HAD TO FIGHT
FOR THE WOMEN'S RIGHT TO VOTE.
NEVER QUITE FORGOTTEN.
(*)
BUT A HUNDRED YEARS LATER
FORGOTTEN ENOUGH THEY SAY THAT
THEY'RE CONSPICUOUS IN THEIR
PRESENCE, BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE
BY A NEW COVERT OF FIGHTERS,
INCLUDING A GREAT-GRANDDAUGHTER
WHO STILL CARRIES THE PANKHURST
MANTLE.
>> LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT
ACTUALLY NOW IN 2018 THAT THE
RESONANCE OF SO MANY OF THE
ISSUES ARE JUST INCREDIBLE.
AND THE
RESONANCE IS PEOPLE SAYING
"ENOUGH."
>> Reporter: FOR TODAY'S
BATTLES FOR EQUALITY, THE STORY
OF THE SUFFRAGETTES MAKES A
POWERFUL BACKDROP.
THE MARCHES, THE VIOLENCE, AND
THE CLASHES WITH POLICE AND
PANKHURST'S OWN ARREST, DEEDS,
NOT WORDS, AS SHE CALLED THEM IN
THE
NAME OF THE VOTE THAT THEY
BELIEVED WOULD UNLOCK MANY OTHER
RIGHTS THAT WOMEN WERE DENIED.
IN THIS ANNIVERSARY YEAR, THE
FIGHT HAS FLARED UP BUT THE
DEEDS HAVE EVOLVED.
>> WOO!
>> Reporter: BRITAIN'S "ME
TOO" MOMENT REACHING INTO THE
HEART OF BRITISH DEMOCRACY WHERE
ONE IN FIVE PEOPLE SAY THEY HAVE
BEEN SEXUALLY HARASSED THIS
YEAR.
THE LASTING INEQUITIES REACHING
INTO THE HEART OF THAT
OTHER MOST BRITISH OF
INSTITUTIONS --
>> THE GREAT HELMSMAN.
>> Reporter: SO WHEN A
SENIOR CORRESPONDENT LEFT A BBC
JOB IN
CHINA OVER A PAY GAP WITH MALE
COLLEAGUES MANY SPOKE OUT FOR
THE FIRST TIME.
>> ONE OF THE REASONS THAT I
SPOKE OUT IS THAT I THOUGHT THAT
IT WAS TIME THAT WE DID SHINE A
LIGHT ON THIS ISSUE.
I HAVE HAD, YOU KNOW, A VERY
SUCCESSFUL CAREER.
MY PARTNER HAS BEEN THE ONE WHO
GAVE UP HIS JOB AND STAYED AT
HOME WITH THE CHILDREN.
I'VE HAD A LIFE, YOU KNOW, WHICH
WOMEN A HUNDRED YEARS AGO
COULDN'T HAVE DREAMED OF, BUT I
THINK THAT SOME OF THE INGRAINED
CULTURAL BELIEFS THAT HAVE
EXISTED FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS
WILL TAKE LONGER TO BREAK DOWN.
(*)
>> Reporter: A HUNDRED YEARS
LATER IT MAY BE USEFUL TO
IMAGINE WHAT PANKHURST WOULD
THINK OF ALL OF THIS COINCIDING
WITH THE
ANNIVERSARY OF THE FIRST
SUFFRAGETTE VICTORY.
>> I THINK SHE'D BE APPALLED AND
I THINK THAT SHE'D BE ANGRY THAT
THERE ARE SO MANY AREAS WHERE WE
STILL HAVE THAT FIGHT TO FIGHT.
AND IT ISN'T A SINGLE LINE.
SO IT ISN'T THE POLICE VERSUS
SUFFRAGETTES, IT'S NOW IN SO
MANY FORMS.
SO WE HAVE THE FIGHT IN
PARLIAMENT TO GET EQUAL
REPRESENTATION AND WE HAVE THE
FIGHT AT WORK TO GET EQUAL PAY
AND THERE'S A FIGHT AT HOME TO
HAVE MEN AND WOMEN VALUED
EQUALLY.
(*)
>> Reporter: THERE ARE STILL
TIMELY LESSONS IN THE OLD BATTLE
LINES TUCKED AWAY IN THE FOLDS
OF BRITISH HISTORY.
BEHOLD SUFFRAGETTO, THAT SHOWS
THE STANDOFF BETWEEN
SUFFRAGETTES AND POLICE, AND
THIS IS BELIEVED TO BE THE ONLY
EXISTING
COMPLETE SET.
>> WHAT I WANT TO BE IS AT THE
HOUSE OF COMMONS AS VOTERS AND
ULTIMATELY THEM PAID.
>> Reporter: DESIGNED BY
PANKHURST BRITISH WOMEN USED IT
AS
PROPAGANDA FOR THE CAUSE.
RESURRECTED NOW FOR AN
EXHIBITION.
A REMINDER OF HOW TO TAKE ON THE
BARRIERS.
>> IT'S INSPIRING ACTUALLY
BECAUSE WHAT IT DOES SHOW YOU IS
THAT, YES, SOME THINGS HAVEN'T
CHANGED BUT SOME THINGS HAVE
CHANGED, IT CAN BE SLOW BUT IT
DOES HAPPEN.
SO I THINK THAT IT'S A GOOD TIME
TO REMIND US
THAT WE'RE NOT THE FIRST TO HAVE
THESE PROBLEMS, THAT FEMINISM IS
STILL IMPORTANT.
AND THAT WE CAN ENGAGE WITH IT
IN AN INTELLECTUAL TERMS AS WELL
AS ACTIVIST TERMS.
>> Reporter: LESSONS TOO IN
THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL, KNOWN FOR
ITS GRAND CONCERTS AND IT'S
STILL ECHOING SUFFRAGETTE
SLOGANS.
>> ONLY BY SELLING ALL TICKETS
TO THESE MEETINGS COULD THEY
REALLY SHOW THAT THEY MEANT
BUSINESS.
>> Reporter: THEIR MEETINGS
WOULD HAVE BEEN SOMETHING,
THOUSANDS OF WOMEN CRAMMED IN
HERE WITH LESSONS IN THE
IMPORTANCE OF DEEDS TO THEIR
CAUSE AND NOT JUST WORDS.
>> THEY USED TO PASS AROUND
BUCKETS AND THEY USED TO IN THAT
BUCKET
PUT IN EITHER CHEQUES OR THEY
COULD PUT IN JEWELLERY WHICH A
LOT OF THEM DID SO WE KNOW THAT
PEOPLE TOOK OFF BROACHES AND
THEY TOOK OFF HAT PINS, THERE
WERE NECKLACES AND THERE WERE
BRACELETS AND THERE WERE EVEN
WEDDING RINGS.
>> Reporter: IT IS HERE THAT
EMMELINE PANKHURST FIRST CALLED
ON WOMEN TO FIGHT.
>> SHE WAS SAYING GO OUT AND DO
WHATEVER YOU CAN.
IF YOU CAN
DISRUPT MEETINGS, THEN DISRUPT
THEM.
IF YOU CAN SMASH THINGS, SMASH
THEM.
IF YOU CAN BURN THINGS, BURN
THEM.
>> THE SHACKLES ARE BOUND OFF...
>> Reporter: IT WAS A
DIFFICULT, VIOLENT CHAPTER IN
BRITISH HISTORY THAT NOW LIVES
ON BY OTHER MORE PEACEFUL MEANS.
>> I WANT TO HEAR YOU CHEER.
>> WOO!
>> Reporter: BUT IN THE LAND
OF THE SUFFRAGETTES A HUNDRED
YEARS LATER A QUESTION GROWS
LOUDER -- JUST HOW MUCH LONGER
UNTIL EQUAL PAY, EQUAL
OPPORTUNITY, FREEDOM FROM
HARASSMENT?
PANKHURST HAS WRITTEN AN OLD
FAMILY
PRESCRIPTION.
WHAT IS NEEDED, SHE SAYS, ARE
DEEDS NOT WORDS.
>> WHAT THE SUFFRAGETTES WOULD
BE SAYING IS TO KEEP GOING,
THERE'S STILL WORK TO BE DONE.
>> Reporter: AND SO
GENERATIONS LATER THE MARCHES GO
ON.
>> MARCH TOGETHER.
>> Reporter: NAHLAH AYED, CBC
NEWS, LONDON.
>> Adrienne: BRITAIN WAS NOT
THE FIRST COUNTRY TO GRANT WOMEN
THE VOTE.
NEW ZEALAND GRANTED THAT A
QUARTER CENTURY EARLIER IN 1893.
IN CANADA, WOMEN WERE THE FIRST
TO GET THE FRANCHISE
IN 1916.
BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL 1960 UNDER
PRIME MINISTER JOHN DIEFENBAKER
THAT FIRST NATIONS WOMEN AND
MEN, FOR THAT MATTER, COULD TAKE
PART IN FEDERAL ELECTIONS.
THE MOST RECENT COUNTRY TO ALLOW
WOMEN TO VOTE WAS SAUDI ARABIA.
IT WAS ONLY IN
LATE 2015 THAT WOMEN THERE CAST
VOTES FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME.
>> Rosemary: AND TO A STORY
ABOUT A DIFFERENT FIGHT FOR
RECOGNITION HAPPENING RIGHT HERE
IN CANADA AND INVOLVING A FIRST
NATION.
THE QUALIPU MI'KMAQ IN
NEWFOUNDLAND IS THE
COUNTRY'S NEWEST FIRST NATION,
HAVING OFFICIALLY BEEN
ESTABLISHED SEVEN YEARS AGO AND
CONTROVERSY IS RAGING OVER WHO
CAN BE A MEMBER OF THE LANDLESS
BAND.
MORE THAN 100,000 PEOPLE
APPLIED, BUT THE VAST MAJORITY
HAVE BEEN REJECTED IN A CLASH
BETWEEN BUREAUCRATIC PROCESS AND
CULTURAL IDENTITY.
>> THE QUALIPU FIRST NATION WILL
DO WHAT WE CAN TO TRY TO TALK
SOME SENSE INTO THE GOVERNMENT
OF CANADA.
>> Rosemary: IT'S A PROCESS
THAT HAS DIVIDED FAMILIES
LITERALLY.
>> MINE WAS APPROVED AND MY
OLDEST WHO WAS 18 WAS APPROVED
AND MY YOUNGEST WHO WAS 6 WAS
DENIED.
>> Rosemary: CHRIS
O'NEILL-YATES LOOKS AT THE FIGHT
FOR STATUS.
>> THOSE THREE RIGHT HERE HAVE
BEEN DENIED AND THOSE THREE HAVE
BEEN ACCEPTED.
>> Reporter: IN A SINGLE
PHOTO, MI'KMAQ ELDER CALVIN
WHITE ILLUSTRATES HOW THE
STRUGGLE TO GET STATUS FOR
NEWFOUNDLAND MI'KMAQ HAS GONE
WRONG.
THREE OF HIS CHILDREN ARE
CONSIDERED INDIGENOUS AND THREE
NOT.
>> THEY GREW UP HERE IN FLATBAY
AND EDUCATED HERE IN FLATBAY BUT
FOR EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
THEY HAD TO MOVE ELSEWHERE.
>> Reporter: THE QUALIPU FIRST
NATION WAS CREATED IN 2011.
SOME 26,000 MEMBERS ARE
SCATTERED ACROSS NEWFOUNDLAND.
BUT WHEN THE PROCESS OF GETTING
RECOGNITION FROM OTTAWA BEGAN IN
2008, MORE THAN 100,000 PEOPLE
APPLIED FOR STATUS.
THAT'S 20% OF THE ENTIRE
POPULATION OF NEWFOUNDLAND.
DID YOU THINK THAT THERE WERE
100,000 MEMBERS OF THE QUALIPU
FIRST NATION HERE IN
NEWFOUNDLAND?
>> NEVER IN MY WILDEST DREAMS
AND I STILL DON'T THINK THAT
THERE'S 100,000 PEOPLE HERE IN
NEWFOUNDLAND.
SOME GOOD OLD MOOSE STEW.
>> Reporter: WHITE SAYS THAT
THE RECOGNITION PROCESS FOR TRUE
MI'KMAQ HAS BEEN THWARTED WITH
AN INFLUX OF 75,000 UNEXPECTED
APPLICATIONS.
>> IF YOU CAN GET ON THIS
REGISTRATION LIST YOU CAN BUY
BIG TICKET ITEMS AND YOU'LL GET
THE TAXES SAVED OFF THEM.
AND, YOU KNOW, YOU'LL ALSO GET
EDUCATION MONEY FOR YOUR
CHILDREN TO GO TO SCHOOL AND
THERE'S, YOU KNOW, THERE'S
HEALTH CARE AND THERE'S GLASSES
AND TEETH AND THESE TYPE OF
THINGS.
>> Reporter: TO DEAL WITH ALL
OF THESE APPLICANTS THE QUALIPU
FIRST NATION AND OTTAWA REVAMPED
THE PROCESS, PROOF OF RESIDENCY
AND CONNECTION TO THE COMMUNITY
BECAME PART OF THE NEW
COMPLICATED SET OF CRITERIA.
>> HOW MANY TIMES DID YOU PHONE
HOME?
HOW MANY TIMES DID YOU TRAVEL TO
NEWFOUNDLAND?
DO YOU LIVE -- HOW MANY TIMES
YOU WENT BERRY PICKING.
DO YOU LIVE AN ABORIGINAL WAY OF
LIFE?
YOU KNOW, ALL OF THESE THINGS IS
WHAT CAME INTO PLAY WHICH HAS
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO
WHATSOEVER OF WHO YOU ARE.
>> Reporter: WHITE SAYS THAT
THIS AGREEMENT FAILED MI'KMAQ.
HE BELIEVES LINEAGE WOULD HAVE
BEEN THE BASIS FOR RECOGNITION.
>> THERE IS A PAPER TRAIL AND
THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN USED, IT
SHOULD HAVE BEEN NEEDED.
I DON'T THINK THAT ANY OF OUR
PEOPLE WOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT OUT.
>> Reporter: NOW THE FLATBAY
BAND IS RECONSIDERING ITS
MEMBERSHIP IN THE QUALIPU FIRST
NATION.
>> BECAUSE IT'S NOT SERVING THE
NEEDS OF OUR PEOPLE.
>> Reporter: THE DISCONTENT OF
THOUSANDS OF QUALIPU MI'KMAQ IS
DIRECTED AT
BRENDAN MITCHELL, THEIR CHIEF.
>> I'M NOT GOING TO SIT HERE AND
TELL YOU THAT 100,000 PEOPLE
SHOULD BELONG IN THIS BAND.
>> Reporter: MOST
NEWFOUNDLANDERS WOULD HAVE
LEARNED ABOUT HIS LEGENDARY
GREAT-GRANDFATHER IN THEIR
HISTORY BOOKS, A PROSPECTOR,
GUIDE AND EXPLORER WHO
DISCOVERED A HUGE ORE BODY IN
CENTRAL NEWFOUNDLAND.
BUT BLOODLINE IS NOT ALL THAT
MITCHELL INHERITED.
>> STRIFE, FAMILIES UPSET,
FAMILIES THAT ARE BROKEN.
COMMUNITIES THAT ARE UPSET.
TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF HURT.
WE HAVE A CASE WHERE TWINS IN
THE SAME HOUSEHOLD, ONE IS IN
AND ONE IS OUT.
THESE ARE THINGS THAT WE'RE
TRYING TO FIND REASONS OR
ANSWERS TO.
>> Reporter: MITCHELL TOO
DISAGREES WITH THE NEW CRITERIA.
SUCH AS PROOF OF PRACTISING A
MI'KMAQ WAY OF LIFE.
>> THEY MAY BE PRACTISING THEIR
CULTURE EVERY DAY BUT THEY DON'T
HAVE A PICTURE OF THEMSELVES, A
SELFIE, SAYING, LOOK AT ME, I'M
SMUDGING.
OR LOOK AT ME AND I'M PASSING
THE PIPE.
YOU KNOW, I JUST WENT TO A
POWWOW, LOOK AT ME.
>> I ALWAYS HAD A FEAR THAT IT
WOULD BE AN INFILTRATION OF A
PART OF SOCIETY.
IT WAS MY FEAR IN THE 1970s
AND IT WAS MY FEAR THROUGHOUT
THE 1980s AND
THE 1990s AND NOW IT'S
BECOMING A REALITY.
>> Reporter: A REALITY THAT
THREATENS THE VERY MOVEMENT OF
WHITE AND WHAT OTHERS STARTED
ALL
THOSE DECADES AGO.
CHRIS O'NEILL-YATES, CBC NEWS,
FLATBAY, NEWFOUNDLAND.
>> Rosemary: SO WHAT ABOUT THE
PROCESS THAT ALLOWED 100,000
PEOPLE APPLY TO BECOME MEMBERS
OF THE QUALIPU FIRST NATIONS?
IT COMES DOWN TO A POINT SYSTEM
AND THOSE POINTS WERE AWARDED IN
FIVE CATEGORIES, INCLUDING NINE
FOR BEING A MEMBER OF AN
ESTABLISHED MI'KMAQ
ORGINISATION.
THERE WAS ANOTHER NINE FOR
MAINTAINING A
MI'KMAQ CULTURE AND WAY OF LIFE
THAT HAS BEEN CONTROVERSIAL
BECAUSE APPLICANTS WERE ASKED TO
PROVE THAT THEY WERE TAKEN PART
IN A RELIGIOUS, CEREMONIAL AND
TRADITIONAL ACTIVITY.
ONLY PEOPLE SCORING A MINIMUM
OF 13 POINTS RECEIVED APPROVAL.
>> Adrienne: HIS ACHIEVEMENT
IS LIKENED TO A LUNAR LANDING
FOR SPORTS.
ROGER BANNISTER, THE FIRST
ATHLETE TO BREAK THE FOUR-MINUTE
MILE BARRIER, IS BEING
REMEMBERED
TONIGHT FOLLOWING HIS DEATH IN
BRITAIN AT THE AGE OF 88.
>> 25-YEAR-OLD ROGER
BANNISTER...
>> Adrienne: BANNISTER RAN
INTO THE HISTORY BOOKS IN
OXFORD,
ENGLAND, IN 1954.
IN FOUR LAPS OF A CINDER TRACK,
THE YOUNG MEDICAL STUDENT MADE
THE SEEMINGLY IMPOSSIBLE
POSSIBLE.
>> HERE HE COMES AND BANNISTER
IS GOING STREAKING FORWARD WITH
250-YARDS...
>> Adrienne: EVEN WITH HELP OF
TWO FRIENDS ACTING AS PACERS HE
STILL NEEDED TO CLOCK 59 SECONDS
FOR THE LAST LAP.
>> I FELT THE MOMENT OF A
LIFETIME HAD COME.
>> Adrienne: IT TOOK A LUNG
BUSTING SPRINT.
>> THE LAST TWO SECONDS SEEMED
NEVER-ENDING.
>> Adrienne: BUT BANNISTER
CROSSED THE LINE WITH 3:59.04,
AND COLLAPSING INTO THE ARMS OF
HIS COACH AND TEAM MANAGER.
ROGER BANNISTER WAS LATER
KNIGHTED BY THE QUEEN, AND HIS
ACCOMPLISHMENT AN
INSPIRATION TO JEP BEERATIONS OF
RUNNERS SINCE.
AND TO GIVE YOU A SENSE OF JUST
HOW
RARE HIS ACHIEVEMENT IS --
>> MORE PEOPLE HAVE ACTUALLY
INDIVIDUALLY CLIMBED EVEREST
THAN HAVE RUN A FOUR-MINUTE MILE
AND IT IS AN EXTRAORDINARY
ACHIEVEMENT.
>> Adrienne: JUST THINK ABOUT
HOW CONCENTRATED ATHLETES ARE
NOW AND THAT BIG DAY IN 1954,
AND ROGER BANNISTER DID HIS
SHIFT AT ST. MARY'S HOSPITAL IN
LONDON AND THEN SHARPENED HIS
SPIKES AFTER WORK AND THEN GOT
ON A TRAIN FROM LONDON TO OXFORD
AND TOOK TO THE TRACK.
SO NO COMPLAINING ABOUT BEING
TIRED AFTER WORK.
(*)
(*)
>> I HAVE A PLAN WHICH IS TO
LOWER ELECTRICITY RATES BY 12%.
>> WE DON'T NEED TO BRING A
CARBON TAX IN.
>> WE NEED STRONG VOICES, STRONG
VOICES IF WE'RE GOING TO TAKE
DOWN THE WYNNE LIBERALS.
>> I DON'T KNOW WHY WE TALK
ABOUT PATRICK BROWN.
I'M LOOKING AT THE FUTURE OF
THIS PARTY.
>> Rosemary: HERE'S SOME OF
THE STORIES THAT WE ARE
FOLLOWING THIS WEEK ON "THE
NATIONAL."
PROGRESSIVE
CONSERVATIVES ARE CASTING THEIR
BALLOTS FOR A NEW LEADER AND
THEY'LL ANNOUNCED WINNER ON
SATURDAY.
FOUR CANDIDATES ARE VYING TO
REPLACE PATRICK BROWN WHO
STEPPED DOWN TWICE LAST MONTH
AMID SEXUAL MISCONDUCT
ALLEGATIONS THAT HE HAS DENIED.
>>> AND IN ITALY'S PARLIAMENTARY
ELECTIONS THEY PROJECT NO PARTY
GOT MORE THAN THE 40% NEEDED TO
GOVERN.
THE VOTE IS BEING HELD UNDER A
NEW COMPLEX ELECTORAL
LAW SO THE FINAL RESULT WON'T BE
CLEAR UNTIL TOMORROW.
EXIT POLLS SUGGEST THOUGH THAT
THE FORMER PRIME MINISTER SILVIO
BERLUSCONI'S CENTRE-RIGHT
COALITION IS SET TO WIN THE MOST
SEATS BUT BERLUSCONI HIMSELF
CAN'T
TAKE THE TOP SPOT BECAUSE OF A
TAX FRAUD CONVICTION.
>> THIS IS TO RECOGNIZE
JERUSALEM AS ISRAEL'S CAPITAL
AND TO MOVE THE AMERICAN EMBASSY
TO JERUSALEM ON OUR INDEPENDENCE
DAY.
GREAT NEWS.
>> Rosemary: DONALD TRUMP WILL
HOST BENJAMIN NETANYAHU FOR A
MEETING AT THE WHITE HOUSE
TOMORROW.
ON THE AGENDA THE CONTROVERSIAL
MOVE OF THE U.S. EMBASSY TO
JERUSALEM FROM TEL AVIV.
NETANYAHU SAYS THAT HE'S
CONSIDERING INVITING TRUMP TO
THE RIBBON-CUTTING CEREMONY IN
MAY.
>> GRENADA.
>> Rosemary: THE WINTER
PARALYMPIC ATHLETES KICK OFF ON
FRIDAY.
CANADA WILL SEND 55 ATHLETES TO
SOUTH KOREA, THE BIGGEST
CONTINGENT THAT THIS COUNTRY HAS
EVER SENT AND THEY'LL LOOK TO
IMPROVE ON THE 16 MEDALS THEY
WON FOUR YEARS AGO IN SOCHI.
>> Adrienne: ALL RIGHT, LET'S
GO NOW TO A PRETTY INCREDIBLE
TALE
FROM VANCOUVER ISLAND.
ADAM VA RCH IS AN EXPERIENCED
HUNTER
AND HE'S NOT SHAKEN BY MUCH BUT
ON THURSDAY HE CAME FACE-TO-FACE
WITH A 140-POUND COUGAR FOR AN
HOUR.
THEIR GAME OF CAT-AND-MOUSE IS
OUR "MOMENT OF THE DAY."
>> THERE'S A MONSTER, MONSTER
TOM AT 20 METRES LOOKING AT ME.
A MONSTER TOM COUGAR.
AND, NO, I DON'T HAVE A GUN.
I HAVE NOTHING.
HE IS HUGE!
>> Adrienne: HE IS HUGE.
SO IT HAPPENED AFTER HE CAME
ACROSS AN ANTLER ON A POPULAR
WALKING TRAIL NORTH OF CAMPBELL
RIVER.
WHEN TOSSING STICKS AT
THAT COUGAR DIDN'T SCARE IT AWAY
HE MADE HIS WAY DOWN THE TRAIL
AND TRYING TO KEEP CALM AND AT
ONE POINT HE THOUGHT THAT HE HAD
LOST THE 140-POUND CAT BUT IT
TURNED OUT THAT IT WAS FOLLOWING
HIM.
THEY EVENTUALLY WENT THEIR
SEPARATE WAYS, BOTH UNSCATHED.
I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT I'D
BE THAT COMPOSED BUT I KNOW THAT
I WOULD NOT.
HE HAD HELP THOUGH BECAUSE HE
AND HIS WIFE TEACH -- IF YOU CAN
BELIEVE THIS -- BEAR AND COUGAR
TRACKING CLASSES.
THEY WILL ADD THIS TO THEIR
CLASSES, CLEARLY.
>> Rosemary: IF YOU WATCH TO
THE END HE SAYS SOMETHING LIKE
HE'S LOOKING AT ME LIKE A DEER.
>> Adrienne: DINNER.
>> Rosemary: EXACTLY.
140-POUNDS IS A SMALL HUMAN.
ANYWAY, TERRIFYING.
THAT'S "THE NATIONAL" FOR MARCH
FOURTH.
GOODNIGHT, EVERYONE.
>> Adrienne: GOODNIGHT.
