>> Andrew: ON THIS MONDAY
NIGHT, GAS PRICES ACROSS THE
COUNTRY ARE SET TO RISE AND IN
VANCOUVER IT'S WORSE THAN IT'S
EVER BEEN.
MORE THAN $1.60 A LITRE.
THE MOST EXPENSIVE BIG CITY TO
FUEL UP IN NORTH AMERICA.
SO HOW HIGH DO PRICES NEED TO GO
TO CONVINCE CANADIANS TO PARK
THEIR CARS?
>> Adrienne: ALSO TONIGHT THE
DANGEROUS DOWNSIDE OF SPRING --
FLOODING.
IN PARTS OF NEW BRUNSWICK PEOPLE
ARE FORCED FROM THEIR HOMES,
ROADS CUT OFF.
AND FOR COMMUNITIES DOWNSTREAM
IT COULD GET EVEN WORSE.
>> Rosemary: AND LATER SHOULD
YOUR MISTAKES LIVE ONLINE
FOREVER?
OR DO YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO BE
FORGOTTEN?
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
(*)
>> Andrew: WELL, VANCOUVER HAS
SET A RECORD AND IT'S
NOTHING TO BRAG ABOUT.
THE PRICE CHARGED FOR A LITRE OF
GAS HIT THE HIGHEST LEVEL EVER
RECORDED IN A MAJOR CITY ON THIS
CONTINENT.
SO IMAGINE PAYING JUST UNDER
$1.62 AND THEN ASK YOURSELF
WOULD THAT KIND OF PRICE FORCE
YOU TO CHANGE THE WAY YOU DRIVE?
IT'S A QUESTION AT THE CORE OF
CANADA'S CLIMATE POLICY.
BRIAR STEWART GOT SOME ANSWERS.
>> Reporter: THE CITY OF
VANCOUVER IS ALREADY KNOWN AS A
PRICEY PLACE TO LIVE.
NOW ADD ON ANOTHER BALLOONING
EXPENSE.
>> WE'VE GOT TO FILL UP AND WE
HAVE NO CHOICE, WE HAVE A LONG
HAUL TO GO.
>> I FILLED IT UP, QUARTER TANK
AND IT WAS $80.
>> IT IS WHAT IT IS AND IT'S A
FEW CENTS DIFFERENT EACH TIME.
>> Reporter: B.C. DRIVERS
ALREADY PAY A PROVINCIAL CARBON
TAX.
IN VANCOUVER TODAY THE PRIME
MINISTER WAS ASKED ABOUT WHETHER
CANADIANS SHOULD EXPECT TO PAY
MORE AT THE PUMP GIVEN THE
FEDERAL CARBON PRICING PLAN.
>> Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau: WHEN YOU PUT A PRICE
ON WHAT YOU DON'T WANT -- WHICH
IS POLLUTION, YOU ENCOURAGE
PEOPLE TO MAKE BETTER CHOICES.
>> Reporter: BUT SO FAR
DESPITE THE PRICE PRESSURE
DRIVERS AREN'T SHIFTING EN MASSE
TOWARDS PUBLIC TRANSIT AND
ELECTRIC VEHICLES.
>> WE CAN'T GAMBLE ON GAS PRICES
MAKING A TRANSITION.
>> Reporter: JOHN AXSION HAS
STUDIED HUMAN BEHAVIOUR AND DONE
SCIENTIFIC MODELING THAT SHOW
THAT PEOPLE'S TRANSPORTATION
HABITS ARE MOSTLY IMMUNE TO THE
RISING GAS PRICES.
>> IT TENDS TO BE THESE
TEMPORARY BUMPS IN THE PRICE
THAT DO GET SOME PEOPLE TO
CHANGE.
OF COURSE, PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE
OPTION MIGHT TAKE A BUS A FEW
TIMES OR MAKE THEIR NEXT VEHICLE
PURCHASE A LITTLE MORE EFFICIENT
BUT IT DOESN'T REALLY MAKE A
HUGE DIFFERENCE.
>> Reporter: HE SAYS THAT
PRICES WOULD HAVE TO BE UP
AROUND $4 A LITRE FOR THE
MAJORITY OF PEOPLE TO GIVE UP
THE CARS AND TRUCKS THEY'RE
CURRENTLY DRIVING.
JUST CONSIDER HOW MUCH GAS COSTS
OUTSIDE OF NORTH AMERICA.
THE COUNTRY WITH THE MOST3
JUST CONSIDER HOW MUCH GAS COSTS
OUTSIDE OF NORTH AMERICA.
THE COUNTRY WITH THE MOST
EXPENSIVE GAS PRICES IS ICELAND
WHERE PEOPLE PAY $2.72 CANADIAN
PER LITRE.
IN NORWAY, A GAS-PRODUCING
NATION, IT'S $2.56 A LITRE.
IN THE U.K., $2.14.
AND IN JAPAN, A COUNTRY KNOWN
FOR BEING EXPENSIVE, IT IS
$1.65 A LITRE.
WHERE GAS IS CHEAPER IS IN THE
U.S.
>> AND THE PRICE DIFFERENCE IT
MAKES SENSE TO JUST COME DOWN
HERE.
>> Reporter: THAT'S HOW MANY
IN THE LOWER MAINLAND ARE
ADAPTING TO VANCOUVER'S HIGH GAS
PRICES, BY MAKING A RUN TO THE
BORDER TO FILL UP IN WASHINGTON
STATE.
BRIAR STEWART, CBC NEWS,
VANCOUVER.
>> Andrew: SO WHY DO VANCOUVER
DRIVERS PAY SO MUCH?
WELL, THERE'S THAT PROVINCIAL
CARBON TAX AND THE EXTRA FEE TO
PAY FOR TRANSIT IMPROVEMENTS.
AND MAINTENANCE AT KEY
REFINERIES ARE TAKING LONGER
THAN EXPECTED.
BUT EXPERTS SAY THAT ACROSS THE
COUNTRY THE DRIVERS SHOULD BE
READY FOR THE PRICES TO GO UP.
SUMMER MEANS HIGHER DEMAND FOR
ALL OF THOSE ROAD TRIPS AND WHEN
REFINERIES
SWITCH OVER TO MAKE SUMMER GRADE
GAS -- WHICH IS ACTUALLY A
DIFFERENT BLEND THAN THE GAS
USED IN WINTER -- THE TEMPORARY
SHUTDOWNS CHOKE SUPPLY.
PLUS, THE U.S. SUPPLIES MOST OF
CANADA'S GASOLINE AND OUR LOW
LOONIE MAKES IT MORE EXPENSIVE.
HERE'S SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
-- EVEN IF GAS GETS MORE
EXPENSIVE, DRIVERS ARE EAGER TO
BUY MORE AND MORE LARGE
VEHICLES.
AND AS JACQUELINE HANSEN SHOWS
US, THE INDUSTRY KNOWS FULL WELL
HOW TO MAKE MONEY FROM THAT.
>> Reporter: FOR THIS DRIVER
HIS CROSSOVER S.U.V. IS BIG BUT
NOT BIG ENOUGH.
>> MY IN-LAWS COME OVER AND IT'S
TOO CRAMMED.
>> SO THIS WHOLE BACK AREA HERE
BECOMES A LOT OF STORAGE...
>> Reporter: NICOLE JUST
TRADED IN HER VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE
FOR THIS COMPACT CROSSOVER.
>> IT WASN'T HOLDING MY
GROCERIES AND THE KIDS AND ANY
EXTRA PEOPLE.
>> Reporter: THE BIGGER IS
BETTER TREND IS ONE THAT FORD IS
BETTING ON.
THE AUTOMAKER IS CUTTING MOST OF
THE CARS FROM ITS LINEUP --
GOODBYE FORD TAURUS, FUSION AND
FIESTA.
BY 2022, THE MUSTANG WILL BE THE
ONLY FORD CAR THAT CANADIANS CAN
BUY.
THE COMPANY SAYS THAT IS BECAUSE
BUYING HABITS ARE SHIFTING FROM
SMALL CARS TO S.U.V.s AND
INDUSTRY-WIDE SALES DATA BACKS
THAT UP.
OVER THE PAST DECADE SALES OF
CARS HAVE FALLEN ALMOST 30%
WHILE SALES OF TRUCKS, VANS AND
S.U.V.s HAVE NEARLY DOUBLED.
>> EXPECT TO PAY OVER A HUNDRED
DOLLARS TO FILL THIS VEHICLE UP.
>> WOW.
>> Reporter: PATRINA IS AN
AUTOMOTIVE JOURNALIST.
SHE OFTEN TEST DRIVES VEHICLES
TO REVIEW THEM.
THIS WEEK IT'S A FORD S.U.V.
>> THIS IS WHERE PEOPLE ARE
SPENDING THEIR MONEY ON
S.U.V.s AND TRUCKS.
>> Reporter: FORD IS ACTUALLY
FOLLOWING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF
FIAT CHRYSLER.
OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS IT
SHIFTED ITS MAIN FOCUS TO TRUCKS
AND JEEPS.
>> FORD SEES THAT THEY'RE MAKING
MONEY AND THEY'RE TRYING TO CASH
IN.
>> Reporter: BUT THIS IS NOT
THE
DEATH OF THE CAR.
G.M., HONDA AND TOYOTA ARE STILL
IN THE GAME AND AS PRICES AT THE
PUMP HIT RECORD HIGHS IN SOME
AREAS, SMALLER MORE FUEL
EFFICIENT VEHICLES MAY BECOME
MORE APPEALING.
>> SO THERE IS A BIT OF A RISK
FOR FORD IN TERMS OF PUTTING ALL
OF THEIR MONEY INTO THE
S.U.V.s AND TRUCKS.
>> Reporter: S.U.V.s HAVE
MADE BIG GAINS IN FUEL
EFFICIENCY BUT FOR CONSUMERS
WHETHER OR NOT A VEHICLE IS GOOD
ON GAS MAY NOT BE THEIR HIGHEST
PRIORITY.
>> I THINK THAT IT MIGHT BUT I'M
NOT QUITE SURE YET.
>> Reporter: FOR MORE AND MORE
CANADIANS, LIFESTYLE SEEMS TO BE
THE BIGGEST DRIVER.
JACQUELINE HANSEN, CBC NEWS,
TORONTO.
>> Andrew: HERE'S A LOOK AT
WHAT ELSE WE'RE WORKING ON...
>>> THREE YOUNG BOYS ARE
REMEMBERED TONIGHT AT A VIGIL IN
NORTHERN MANITOBA.
ALL THREE WERE STRUCK AND KILLED
BY AN ALLEGED DRUNK DRIVER WHILE
WALKING AND BIKING
WITH FRIENDS.
>> Adrienne: AND ISRAEL'S
PRIME MINISTER SAYS HE HAS THE
PROOF THAT
IRAN IS LYING ABOUT ITS NUCLEAR
PROGRAMME.
BUT IS THE PROOF NEW?
WHAT IS REALLY BEHIND
NETANYAHU'S THEATRICAL PRIMETIME
ADDRESS?
>> Rosemary: FIRST, THE
FLOODWATERS AND THE RISING
CONCERNS IN NEW
BRUNSWICK TONIGHT.
THIS WAS THE SCENE IN
FREDERICTON YESTERDAY AS THE
RESCUERS PULLED A TRAPPED
RESIDENT TO SAFETY.
THE SAINT JOHN RIVER HAS SWOLLEN
BY MORE THAN EIGHT METRES IN
PLACES AND WATER LEVELS HAVE
STABILIZED THERE BUT THEY COULD
STILL RISE DOWN RIVER.
KAYLA HOUNSELL SPENT THE DAY
NEAR MAJORVILLE WHERE THE
RESIDENTS ARE DOING WHAT THEY
CAN TO STAY DRY AND SAFE.
>> Reporter: CHRIS BOYD'S
BACKYARD IS LIKE A GIANT POOL.
IT'S NEARLY SURROUNDING HIS
HOME.
>> I NORMALLY DO NOT HAVE A
RIVERFRONT PROPERTY.
I NORMALLY JUST HAVE A LAWN AND
THE RIVER IS WAY OVER THERE.
>> Reporter: WITH RAIN FALLING
MOST OF THE DAY THE WATER LEVEL
CONTINUED TO RISE IN MAJORVILLE,
NEW BRUNSWICK, AS THE SAINT JOHN
RIVER SPILLED ITS BANKS.
THERE'S ALREADY A METRE OF WATER
IN BOYD'S BASEMENT.
CHRISTMAS CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS
ARE NOW A SWAMPY MESS.
HE SAYS THAT IT FLOODS A LOT
HERE, BUT NOT LIKE THIS.
>> I WASN'T QUITE READY FOR IT
THIS YEAR.
>> Reporter: BOYD'S NEIGHBOURS
WEREN'T PREPARED EITHER.
THEY'RE AT THE END OF WHAT
SHOULD BE A GRAVEL ROAD.
WE USE HIS BOAT TO PAY THEM A
VISIT.
WE PADDLE FOR 15 MINUTES.
WHEN WE ARRIVE DAWN SHARP AND
JIM
LARSON ARE COMPLETELY SURROUNDED
BY WATER.
>> IT TOOK US BY SURPRISE AND IT
WAS HUGE, THE WATER WAS
EVERYWHERE.
>> Reporter: WE'RE INTERRUPTED
BY A LARGE TREE FLOATING BY
THEIR WINDOW.
>> WHEN WE GET UP IT HAD RAISED
44-INCHES AND THE TRUCK WAS IN
THE WATER AND WE COULDN'T GET
OUT.
>> Reporter: SHE'S BEEN HERE
FOR 25 YEARS AND HAS DETAILED
THE FLOOD WATCH EVER SINCE.
>> 2008 IT WAS UP TO 133 -- 135
ON MY MARKER.
AND THIS YEAR IT'S 120.
>> Reporter: SHARPE AND LARSON
AREN'T EVEN IN THE WORST CASE
SCENARIO.
THEIR HOME IS ONE OF THE LAST
BEFORE THIS ROADBLOCK.
WE CAN'T EVEN GET FURTHER INTO
THE COMMUNITY TO SHOW YOU WHAT'S
HAPPENING THERE.
BUT RESIDENTS SAY THAT THE RIVER
IS ACTUALLY FLOWING UP ON TO THE
ROAD AND BRINGING DEBRIS WITH
IT, SIMPLY MAKING IT UNSAFE TO
TRAVEL.
DOZENS OF ROADS AROUND THE
PROVINCE REMAIN CLOSED.
>> FROM NOW ON WE WILL BE
ENFORCING THE LAW OF NOT
RESPECTING BARRICADES AND FINES
WILL BE GIVEN OUT.
>> Reporter: BACK IN
MAJORVILLE, DAWN SHARPE AND JIM
LARSON ARE STAYING PUT FOR NOW
AND WAITING FOR THE RAIN TO LET
UP SO THEY CAN GO GET GROCERIES
IN A CANOE.
KAYLA HOUNSELL, CBC NEWS,
MAJORVILLE, NEW BRUNSWICK.
>> Rosemary: OF COURSE WHEN
THE WATER LEVELS DROP THE
CLEANUP BILL WILL RISE.
NEW BRUNSWICK HAS SPENT ABOUT $
$200 MILLION ON
DISASTER RELIEF SINCE THE
1990s AND THE NUMBER OF FLOOD
RELATED DAMAGE CLAIMS HAVE
TRIPLED IN THE LAST DECADE WHICH
IS WHY IT REVAMPED ITS LONG-TERM
FLOOD STRATEGY IN 2014 WITH
THREE MAIN OBJECTIVES.
THE FIRST SOUNDS SIMPLE BUT
COULD MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE --
UPDATING MAPS OF FLOOD PRONE
AREAS, MANY WHICH ARE DECADES
OLD AND DON'T INCLUDE RECENTLY
BUILT ROADS AND STRUCTURES.
SECOND, PLANNING NEW COMMUNITIES
AND INFRASTRUCTURE TO AVOID
FLOOD ZONES.
BUILDING AROUND THE RISKIEST
AREAS WILL HOPEFULLY SAVE MONEY
AND POSSIBLY LIVES DOWN THE
ROAD.
THE THIRD IS ADAPTATION.
FLOOD PROOFING HOMES AND
BUILDINGS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE
AND INFORMING PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN
FLOOD ZONES ABOUT WHAT THEY NEED
TO DO TO GET PREPARED.
IT'S NOT JUST NEW BRUNSWICK, OF
COURSE, IN B.C. LAST YEAR'S
WILDFIRES COULD BE WORSENING
THIS YEAR'S FLOODING.
EMERGENCY OFFICIALS SAY THAT THE
LOSS OF FOREST IS ALLOWING THE
RUNOFF TO FLOW MORE EASILY INTO
RIVERS AND STREAMS IN THE
INTERIOR.
NEW EVACUATION ORDERS WERE
ISSUED THERE OVER THE WEEKEND
WEST OF QUESNEL.
FURTHER SOUTH, TULAMEEN IS UNDER
A STATE OF EMERGENCY WITH NEW
EVACUATION ORDERS.
AND MORE FLOOD WATCHES HAVE BEEN
POSTED NOW FOR CACHE CREEK AND
MERRITT AND WILLIAMS LAKE.
BUT THINGS ARE STARTING TO EASE
UP IN
PARTS OF ALBERTA.
ABOUT 300 PEOPLE ORDERED OUT OF
THE COMMUNITY OF FORT VERMILION
HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO RETURN AND
THE REST OF MACKENZIE COUNTY IS
SEEING RELIEF AS THE WATER
LEVELS DROP ON THE PEACE RIVER.
GUT A CRITICAL ALERT IS IN
EFFECT FOR WOODLANDS COUNTY.
ICE JAMS ON THET ATHABASCA RIVER
ARE STILL CAUSING SERIOUS
PROBLEMS THERE.
>>> OKAY, LET'S TURN NOW TO
NORTHERN MANITOBA AND A SMALL
COMMUNITY THAT IS TRYING, REALLY
TRYING, TO COPE AFTER A TERRIBLE
TRAGEDY, ANDREW.
>> Andrew: YEAH, ROSIE, THREE
BOYS WERE OUT SATURDAY NIGHT
WHEN ALL THREE WERE HIT BY A CAR
AND KILLED.
THEY ARE 13-YEAR-OLD TERRENCE
SPENCE, AND 11-YEAR-OLD MATEO
MOORE-SPENCE, AND KEITHAN
LOBSTER.
AT THE WHEEL WAS A MAN CHARGED
TODAY WITH IMPAIRED DRIVING, HE
TOO WAS A RESIDENT OF NELSON
HOUSE, SOMETHING THAT COMES AS
AN ADDED BLOW TO THAT COMMUNITY.
NELSON HOUSE IS PART OF THE CREE
FIRST NATION ABOUT 800
KILOMETRES NORTH OF WINNIPEG.
TONIGHT A VIGIL IS BEING HELD
THERE FOR THE BOYS WHO DIED.
BUT AS CAMERON MacINTOSH SHOWS
US, COMING TO TERMS WITH WHAT
HAPPENED WILL BE A STRUGGLE.
>> Reporter: AS THE ROAD NEAR
THE ACCIDENT SCENE WAS BEING
SMOOTHED BACK OVER A TIRE TRACK
OF A BICYCLE COULD STILL BE SEEN
IN THE MUDDY SHOULDER.
THIS IS A TIGHT KNIT NORTHERN
COMMUNITY.
SO THE DEPTH OF SORROW OVER THE
THREE YOUNG LIVES LOST IS ALMOST
TOO MUCH TO BEAR.
SAM DYSERT WAS A
GREAT-GRANDFATHER TO TWO OF THE
BOYS.
>> I THINK AND PRAY AND WE STICK
TOGETHER AS A FAMILY.
>> Reporter: IT WAS ABOUT
10:30 SATURDAY NIGHT.
FIVE BOYS, ALL CLOSE FRIENDS,
WERE MAKING THEIR WAY ALONG THIS
ROAD NORTH AWAY FROM TOWN.
TWO OF THEM WERE WALKING AND
THREE WERE ON BIKES.
THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN HARD TO
SEE.
THERE'S NO LIGHTS ANYWHERE ALONG
HERE AND THERE'S NO MOONLIGHT
THAT NIGHT.
AND A COUPLE OF THE KIDS WERE
WEARING BLACK.
RIGHT ABOUT HERE A CAR STRUCK
AND KILLED THREE OF THEM.
THE OTHER TWO RAN FOR HELP.
INCIDENTALLY THAT NIGHT JUST A
LITTLE FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD
HERE THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A
CHECK-STOP IN THE DIRECTION THAT
THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELLING.
THE CONSTABLES WERE BUSY AT A
DIFFERENT CALL.
>> I THINK THAT THE COMMUNITY IS
STILL IN SHOCK...
>> Reporter: CHIEF MARCEL
MOODY KNEW THE CHILDREN AND HE
ALSO KNOWS THE
ACCUSED, 27-YEAR-OLD TODD
LINKLATER WHO WAS WELL LIKED AND
RESPECTED HERE BUT IS NOW FACING
MULTIPLE CHARGES, INCLUDING
IMPAIRED DRIVING CAUSING DEATH
AND FLEEING THE SCENE OF AN
ACCIDENT.
>> FOR THE MOMENT I THINK THAT
WE'RE GOING TO CONCENTRATE ON
THE FAMILIES THAT ON LOST THEIR
LOVED ONES.
THAT'S THE PRIORITY FOR THE
NATION RIGHT NOW.
>> Reporter: COMMUNITY LEAD
ARE IS COUNSELLING THE FAMILIES.
>> AS A TRADITION WE ALL COME
TOGETHER AND THAT'S THE BEST WE
CAN DO AT A TIME OF TRAUMA.
THERE ARE NOT REALLY ANY WORDS
THAT ARE FITTING TO SAY.
>> Reporter: RESIDENTS HAVE
ALSO STARTED A GoFundMe
CAMPAIGN TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE
VICTIMS' FAMILIES.
CAMERON MacINTOSH, CBC NEWS,
NELSON HOUSE, MANITOBA.
>> Adrienne: LET'S LOOK AT A
PRIMETIME ADDRESS IN ISRAEL THAT
HAS THE WORLD'S ATTENTION IN AN
INTERNATIONALLY TELEVISED
WEB-STREAMED PRESENTATION, THE
PRIME MINISTER CLAIMED IRAN LIED
TO THE WORLD AND THAT HE HAS
PROOF.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU REVEALED AN
ARCHIVE OF DOCUMENTS THAT HE
SAYS SHOW TEHRAN IS STILL
PURSUING WEAPONS OF MASS
DESTRUCTION.
AS DEREK STOFFEL TELLS US, THIS
IS THE LATEST AND ONE OF THE
MOST DRAMATIC EFFORTS SO FAR BY
THE ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER TO
KILL THE IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL.
>> TONIGHT WE'RE GOING TO SHOW
YOU SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD HAS
NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
>> Reporter: WHEN IT COMES TO
ISRAEL'S LONG-TIME FOE, IRAN,
PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN
NETANYAHU HAS TURNED TO
THEATRICS BEFORE.
THIS DRAWING MADE HEADLINES WHEN
HE SPOKE AT THE U.N. IN 2012.
TODAY IT WAS A POWERPOINT
PRESENTATION AT ISRAEL'S
MILITARY HEADQUARTERS.
>> WE'RE GOING TO SHOW YOU
IRAN'S SECRET NUCLEAR FILES.
>> Reporter: NETANYAHU CALLED
IT A GREAT INTELLIGENCE
ACHIEVEMENT.
>> 55,000 PAGES.
>> Reporter: AND 183 C.D.s
FILLED WITH COMPUTER FILES.
EXACT COPIES THAT THE PRIME
MINISTER SAYS WERE OBTAINED FROM
A SECRET STORAGE FACILITY IN
TEHRAN.
FOCUSING ON "PROJECT AHMED."
THE GOAL, ACCORDING TO
NETANYAHU, TO PRODUCE FIVE
WARHEADS WITH A YIELD OF
10KILOTONNES OF T.N.T. WHICH HE
SAYS IS FIVE
TIMES MORE POWERFUL THAN THE
BOMB DROPPED ON HIROSHIMA.
>> SO THESE FILES PROVE THAT
IRAN IS BRAZENLY LYING WHEN IT
SAID IT NEVER HAD A NUCLEAR
WEAPONS.
>> Reporter: IRAN, NOT
SURPRISINGLY, DISMISSED
NETANYAHU'S PRIMETIME ADDRESS AS
"PROPAGANDA."
THE COUNTRY'S FOREIGN MINISTER
ON TWITTER CALLING THE PRIME
MINISTER "THE BOY WHO CRIED
WOLF."
>> Adrienne: DEREK IS JOINING
US FROM TEL AVIV NOW.
DEREK, JUST HOW CREDIBLE IS THE
INTELLIGENCE THAT THIS IS ALL
BASED ON?
>> Reporter: WELL, WHAT IS
INTERESTING IS THAT PRIME
MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU DID
NOT SAY HOW ISRAELI SPIES WERE
ABLE TO GET THEIR HANDS ON ALL
OF THESE DOCUMENTS.
THAT HAS PEOPLE HERE -- SOME
PEOPLE ARE WONDERING, WELL, WHAT
EXACTLY IS NEW IN WHAT HE HAD TO
SAY TONIGHT?
AND WE DO KNOW THAT MUCH OF THE
EVIDENCE THAT HE PRESENTED
REFERS TO IRANIAN ACTIVITIES
BEFORE 2015, THAT'S WHEN THE
IRANIAN NUCLEAR DEAL WAS SIGNED.
AND WE ALSO KNOW THAT THE IAEA,
THE U.N.'S NUCLEAR WATCHDOG, IT
SAW A LOT OF WHAT NETANYAHU
PRESENTED, IT SAW THIS GOING
BACK IN SOME CASES AS FAR AS A
DECADE AGO.
SO, ADRIENNE, THAT HAS SOME
ANALYSTS HERE
IN ISRAEL AND ABROAD CASTING
DOUBT ON WHAT THE PRIME MINISTER
HAD TO SAY.
>> Adrienne: OR AT LEAST
WHAT'S NEW ABOUT IT.
DEREK, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>>> SO DONALD TRUMP SAID THAT HE
WATCHED NETANYAHU'S PRESENTATION
BUT FOR NOW IT SEEMS THAT THE
U.S. IS LEAVING ITS OPTIONS
OPEN.
>> President Donald Trump: I'M
NOT SITTING BACK IDLY.
THEY'RE SENDING OFF MISSILES
WHICH THEY SAY ARE FOR
TELEVISION PURPOSES -- I DON'T
THINK SO.
THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT I
WOULDN'T
NEGOTIATE A NEW AGREEMENT.
WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
BUT I THINK THAT IF ANYTHING
WHAT IS HAPPENING TODAY AND WHAT
HAS HAPPENED OVER THE LAST
LITTLE
WHILE AND WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED
HAS REALLY SHOWN THAT I HAVE
BEEN 100% RIGHT.
>> Adrienne: TRUMP HAS TO MAY
12th TO DECIDE WHETHER TO
RENEGE ON THE DEAL.
HE SAID THAT HE WOULD RIP IT UP
ENTIRELY BUT THAT MIGHT NOT BE
IN HIS COUNTRY'S BEST INTEREST.
IN 2015 AFTER YEARS OF INTENSE
NEGOTIATIONS SIX WORLD POWERS
FINALLY FOUND COMMON GROUND WITH
IRAN.
>> NOW WE ARE STARTING A NEW
CHAPTER OF HOPE.
>> Adrienne: AT THE TIME IRAN
WAS SAID TO BE CLOSE TO HAVING
NUCLEAR CAPABILITY.
EVEN SO IT AGREED TO REDUCE ITS
ENRICHED URANIUM STOCKPILES BY
98% AND LET ATOMIC INSPECTORS
INTO ITS FACTORIES AND LABS AND
MILITARY SITES.
IN EXCHANGE THE WEST WOULD
GRADUALLY EASE SANCTIONS.
>> I AM CONFIDENT THAT THIS WILL
MEET THE NATIONAL SECURITY
INTERESTS OF THE UNITED STATES
AND OUR ALLIES.
>> Adrienne: THE DEAL WAS
HAILED BY
THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION AS A
STEP TOWARDS WORLD PEACE.
THAT'S NOT EXACTLY HOW THE
CURRENT PRESIDENT SEES IT...
>> President Donald Trump: THE
IRAN DEAL WAS ONE OF THE WORST
AND MOST ONE-SIDED TRANSACTIONS
THAT THE UNITED STATES HAS EVER
ENTERED INTO.
>> Adrienne: IF TRUMP MAKES
GOOD ON HIS THREATS TO RIP THE
DEAL UP THAT PLAN COULD
BACKFIRE.
IRAN MAY DOUBLE DOWN ON ITS
EFFORTS TO BUILD A NUCLEAR
WEAPON.
EUROPEAN ALLIES MAY SEE A U.S.
REVERSAL AS A SIGN THAT THEY
JUST CAN'T TRUST THE AMERICANS
TO LIVE UP TO THEIR WORD AND ALL
OF THIS COULD MAKE NORTH KOREA
MORE RELUCTANT TO NEGOTIATE ITS
OWN DEAL.
>> Rosemary: AHEAD TONIGHT ON
"THE NATIONAL," WHY THOUSANDS OF
PEOPLE HERE IN CANADA ARE
GETTING A HUGE HIT ON THEIR TAX
BILL THIS YEAR THANKS TO DONALD
TRUMP.
>> Andrew: ALSO HOW DOES
SWEDEN RECYCLE MORE THAN 99% OF
ITS HOUSEHOLD WASTE?
WE'LL LOOK AT WHAT LESSONS
CANADA COULD LEARN.
>> Adrienne: BUT FIRST
TONIGHT'S "NATIONAL
DOCUMENTARY."
A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH A
STUDENT COST HIM HIS UNIVERSITY
JOB.
SHOULD HE HAVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE
THAT PAST MISTAKE FORGOTTEN
ONLINE?
>> YOU KNOW, IT WAS AT THAT
POINT THAT I REALISED THAT --
THAT
PUTTING THE PAST AWAY WAS NEVER
GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THE
DIGITAL FOOTPRINT.
(*)
(*)
(*)
>> Andrew: TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL," WE ARE TRACKING SOME
DEVELOPMENTS OUT OF WASHINGTON
AND NEWS THAT CANADA WILL NOT BE
SUBJECT TO STEEP NEW U.S. STEEL
AND ALUMINUM TARIFFS FOR NOW.
TONIGHT TRUMP WAS SUPPOSED TO
DECIDE WHAT TO DO ABOUT THE
EXEMPTIONS GIVEN TO CANADA, THE
E.U. AND MEXICO, BUT IN A
STATEMENT THE WHITE HOUSE HAS
SAID THAT HE'S POSTPONED MAKING
A DECISION UNTIL JUNE 1.
>> PORN STAR STORMY DANIELS IS
RATCHETING UP HER LEGAL BATTLE.
IT'S OVER HER ALLEGED AFFAIR
WITH DONALD TRUMP.
SHE'S NOW SUING THE PRESIDENT
FOR DEFAMATION.
THE ISSUE IS A TWEET FROM TRUMP
THAT HE CALLED HER STORY ABOUT
BEING THREATENED TO KEEP QUIET A
"TOTAL CON JOB."
DANIELS INSISTS THAT SHE WAS
TELLING THE TRUTH AND SHE WANTS
A
JURY TRIAL AND DAMAGES.
>> Rosemary: WHEN TRUMP SIGNED
A SWEEPING TAX BILL INTO LAW
LAST YEAR HE SAID THAT IT WOULD
GO DOWN AS ONE OF THE LARGEST
TAX CUTS IN U.S. HISTORY.
BUT THOUSANDS OF
AMERICANS LIVING IN CANADA ARE
FINDING JUST THE OPPOSITE.
AS EVAN DYER EXPLAINED, SOME ARE
BEING SLAPPED BY MASSIVE BILLS
AND ARE NOW BEING TOLD TO PAY
UP.
>> WE FIND THIS UTTERLY
RIDICULOUS.
>> Reporter: THE HERMANS WERE
LOOKING FORWARD TO A COMFORTABLE
RETIREMENT UNTIL LAST DECEMBER
AND A SIX-FIGURE TAX BILL.
>> AS YOU KNOW A LOT OF
CANADIANS USE THEIR SMALL
CORPORATIONS FOR PENSION FUNDS
AND THAT'S PRECISELY WHAT WE
USED IT FOR AND THIS WOULD
BASICALLY GUT IT.
>> WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO KEEP
WORKING UNTIL SUCH TIME AS WE'RE
OUT OF THIS MESS.
>> President Donald Trump:
BIGGEST REFORM OF ALL TIME...
>> Reporter: IT'S ALL BECAUSE
OF PRESIDENT TRUMP'S TAX CUTS
AND JOBS ACT SIGNED IN DECEMBER.
THE LAW WAS AIMED AT
MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS THAT
HAVE FOR YEARS TRIED TO PARK
THEIR PROFITS OVERSEAS TO AVOID
U.S. TAXES.
NOW THE GOVERNMENT WANTS THEM TO
PAY UP.
>> MY INTERPRETATION IS AS GOOD
AS ANYBODIES IS THAT THEY'RE
REALLY LOOKING TO BIG
BUSINESSES.
THERE'S HUGE BUSINESSES IN THE
U.S., NOTABLY APPLE COMPUTER,
THAT HAD A LOT OF MONEY OFFSHORE
AND THEY WANTED A WAY TO BRING
IT BACK INTO THE U.S.
>> Reporter: BUT IT'S ENDED UP
HITTING
THOUSANDS OF INDEPENDENT
BUSINESS OWNERS IN CANADA WHO
ARE DUAL OR U.S. CITIZENS,
PEOPLE LIKE THE HERMANS --
>> AND ACTION, ACTION...
>> Reporter: WHOSE
PRODUCTION COMPANY MAKES
COMMERCIALS FOR ADIDAS AND
PENNZOIL.
>> THEY'RE STEAMED AND LIKELY
SO.
AND THEY ARE NOT THE TARGETS.
WE HAVE SEEN BILLS IN THE MANY
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
AND, OF COURSE, WE HAVE SEEN
BILLS IN THE TENS OF THOUSANDS
OF DOLLARS.
>> Reporter: MANY OF THOSE
AFFECTED HAVE NO FINANCIAL TIES
TO THE U.S.
>> WE DON'T HAVE ANY OFFICES IN
THE U.S. AND NOT ONLY THAT BUT
WE'RE NOT ALLOWED TO OPEN UP A
BANK ACCOUNT IN THE U.S. BECAUSE
WE HAVE NO ADDRESS THERE.
>> Reporter: A SPOKESMAN FOR
FINANCE MINISTER BILL MORNEAU
TELLS CBC THAT CANADA IS STILL
STUDYING THE ISSUE, SAYING THAT
THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE IS
CONDUCTING DETAILED ANALYTICAL
WORK TO CONSIDER THE IMPACT OF
U.S. TAX REFORM.
THIS WORK IS EXPECTED TO TAKE
SEVERAL MONTHS.
BUT THE HERMANS CAN'T WAIT THAT
LONG.
THEIR FIRST TAX BILL IS DUE ON
JUNE 15th.
>> WE'RE IN THIS BATTLE NOW AND
WE'VE GOT TO GET THROUGH IT
SOMEHOW.
UNSCATHED, IF WE CAN.
AND WE NEED THE HELP OF THE
CANADIAN GOVERNMENT TO DO THAT.
THEY CAN'T IGNORE THIS
SITUATION.
>> Reporter: NOW THE HERMANS
COULD ALWAYS JUST REFUSE TO PAY
BUT UNDER THE EXISTING TAX
TREATY THE CANADA REVENUE AGENCY
COULD COME AFTER THEM TO COLLECT
THE MONEY ON BEHALF OF THE
I.R.S.
THEY CONTINUE TO HOPE THAT THE
U.S. CONGRESS WILL FIX THE LAW
BUT THEY'RE NOT OPTIMISTIC.
EVAN DYER, CBC NEWS, OTTAWA.
>> Rosemary: LOTS MORE STILL
AHEAD TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL"... HE WAS ASKED TO PAY
UPFRONT FOR HIS MEAL AT A
RESTAURANT AND NOW THAT
RESTAURANT IS ORDERED TO PAY
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR
INFRINGING ON HIS HUMAN RIGHTS.
>> Adrienne: BUT FIRST, IN
TONIGHT'S "NATIONAL
DOCUMENTARY," IN AN AGE WHERE
YOUR PAST MISTAKES ARE ALWAYS A
CLICK AWAY SHOULD CANADIANS HAVE
THE RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN
ONLINE?
>> THAT FEAR WHEN YOU MEET
PEOPLE AND THEY GOOGLE OUT OF
CURIOSITY AND THAT'S ALWAYS
LOOMING OVER MY HEAD.
I HAVE A LOT OF ANXIETY
INTRODUCING MYSELF TO PEOPLE.
(*)
(*)
>> Adrienne: WE LIVE IN A
WORLD WHERE YOUR WORST DECISIONS
CAN HAUNT YOU FOREVER.
TO ERR IS HUMAN, WE ALL MAKE
MISTAKES, BUT FOR SOME PEOPLE
MOVING ON CAN BE TORTURE BECAUSE
THE INTERNET JUST WON'T FORGET.
TONIGHT NICK PURDON LOOKS AT THE
SENSITIVE CASE OF TWO PEOPLE
WITH A MESSY SHARED PAST THEY
CANNOT ESCAPE.
SO DECIDE FOR YOURSELF IF THEY
SHOULD HAVE "THE RIGHT TO BE
FORGOTTEN."
>> AT THAT POINT, AT THAT TIME,
YOU DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO
SEE THROUGH THAT DARKNESS.
AND YOU THINK THAT THE EASY WAY
OUT IS
TO LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND.
TO JUST GO, DISAPPEAR.
>> I THINK IF WE'RE GOING TO
ADOPT THE RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN
HERE IN CANADA WE CERTAINLY DO
HAVE TO LIMIT IT IN SOME WAY.
>> YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND IT UNTIL
YOU LIVE IT.
IT'S ABSOLUTELY DEVASTATING TO
EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR LIFE.
>> Reporter: THINK ABOUT JUST
HOW MUCH OF OUR LIVES ARE
ONLINE.
I MEAN, WHAT ISN'T THERE?
IT'S ALL GOING TO BE THERE
FOREVER.
IT MAKES YOU FEEL PRETTY
EXPOSED, DOESN'T IT?
BECAUSE WHAT IF YOU DO SOMETHING
WRONG, WHAT IF YOU MAKE A
MISTAKE AND THAT ENDS UP THERE
TOO
AND THAT WON'T GO AWAY?
SO ONE OF THE BIG QUESTIONS OF
OUR TIME IS THIS -- SHOULD WE
HAVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE SOMETHING
ABOUT OURSELVES TAKEN DOWN FROM
THE INTERNET?
SHOULD WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE
FORGOTTEN?

BOARDING EVERYTHING UP AND NOT A
RAY OF SUNLIGHT IN THERE BECAUSE
I DIDN'T WANT TO SEE THE OUTSIDE
WORLD.
I WAS SCARED.
>> Reporter: KYDD'S
RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS STUDENT
BROKE UNIVERSITY POLICY AND KYDD
WAS FIRED.
HIS CAREER WAS OVER.
BUT HE SAYS WHEN HE REALLY
UNDERSTOOD THAT THE STORY WAS
NEVER GOING TO GO AWAY WAS ONE
NIGHT WHEN HIS 9-YEAR-OLD
DAUGHTER WAS ASKING SIRI
QUESTIONS ON HIS PHONE.
>> SHE ALL OF A SUDDEN ASKED THE
QUESTION, WHO IS MICHAEL KYDD?
AND IT WAS LIKE SOMETHING
SLAPPED ME AND SAID GET OVER
THERE.
I LEAPT OFF THE COUCH, AND I
GRABBED MY PHONE FROM HER AND I
SAID, OKAY, BABY, LET'S GO TO
BED.
I TOOK HER TO BED AND I PUT HER
TO SLEEP AND WHEN I CAME BACK
OUT I SAT DOWN ON THE COUCH AND
I LOOKED AT THE PHONE AND
EVERYTHING WAS THERE FOR HER TO
SEE.
EVERY STORY.
AND WORDS THAT A 9-YEAR-OLD
SHOULDN'T BE EXPOSED TO.
AND IT WAS AT THAT POINT THAT I
REALISED THAT PUTTING THE PAST
AWAY WAS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN
BECAUSE OF A DIGITAL FOOTPRINT.
>> Reporter: NOW THERE'S
ANOTHER REASON THAT MICHAEL
KYDD'S DIGITAL FOOTPRINT IS SO
BIG.
THE WOMAN HE HAD THE ENCOUNTER
WITH, TARRAH McPHERSON ACCUSED
HIM OF SEXUAL ASSAULT.
THE POLICE INVESTIGATED BUT
DIDN'T
LAY CHARGES.
STILL IN THE AGE OF "ME TOO" THE
QUESTION NEEDS TO BE ASKED.
SOME PEOPLE WILL ARGUE THAT EVEN
THOUGH MISS McPHERSON'S
ALLEGATIONS WERE NEVER PROVEN
THAT AN ALLEGATION OF SEXUAL
ASSAULT IS ENOUGH FOR YOU NOT TO
BE FORGOTTEN.
WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THAT PERSON?
>> ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE, NO,
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
>> Reporter: TODAY MICHAEL
KYDD WANTS HIS STORY REMOVED
FROM THE INTERNET.
BUT SHOULD HE HAVE THAT RIGHT?
I MEAN IT'S A TOUGH QUESTION BUT
AS A SOCIETY WE NEED TO THINK
ABOUT IT BECAUSE IF SOMEONE IS
ALLOWED TO BE FORGOTTEN THAT IS
BASICALLY ERASING HISTORY.
ARE WE PREPARED TO DO THAT?
AND SHOULDN'T THE OTHER PERSON
INVOLVED IN A PARTICULAR STORY
HAVE A SAY AS WELL?
TO THIS DAY TARRAH McPHERSON
DISPUTES KYDD'S VERSION OF
EVENTS.
SHE DENIES HAVING ANYTHING TO DO
WITH THE ILLICIT IMAGE ENDING UP
ONLINE AND INSISTS SHE ASKED FOR
IT TO BE REMOVED.
McPHERSON HAS HER OWN OPINIONS
ABOUT THE RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN.
>> I THINK THAT IF THE ONE PARTY
HAS THE RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN,
IT SHOULD BE ALL PARTIES AND IT
SHOULDN'T BE SELECTIVE TO THIS
PIECE OR THIS PERSON.
IT SHOULD BE ALL OR NOTHING.
AND I THINK THAT THIS STORY THAT
HAS BEEN PRESENTED IN THE MEDIA
AND ONLINE SHOULD BE FORGOTTEN.
>> Reporter: McPHERSON
EXPLAINS THAT THE LAST FEW YEARS
HAVE BEEN HARD.
>> THAT FEAR WHEN YOU MEET
PEOPLE AND THEY GOOGLE YOU JUST
OUT OF CURIOSITY, THAT'S ALWAYS
LOOMING OVER MY HEAD.
I HAVE A LOT OF ANXIETY
INTRODUCING MYSELF TO PEOPLE.
MY CHILDREN WERE AFFECTED SO I
HAVE HYPER AWARENESS OF HOW THIS
AFFECTS THEM.
IT JUST DOESN'T STOP WITH ME OR
STOP WITH HIM.
IT'S SO MUCH BIGGER THAN THAT.
>> Reporter: NOW IF THE BAR TO
BE FORGOTTEN ONLINE WAS JUST
ABOUT HOW MUCH DAMAGE IS DONE TO
PEOPLE'S LIVES THEN MAYBE THIS
IS A SLAM-DUNK BUT THERE'S A
COMPETING INTEREST -- THE
PUBLIC'S RIGHT TO KNOW.
ALLEN MENDELSON IS AN INTERNET
PRIVACY LAWYER IN MONTREAL.
WHEN PEOPLE CALL YOU AND SAY I
WANT SOMETHING REMOVED FROM THE
INTERNET WHAT DO YOU SAY?
>> I TELL THEM FIRST OFF BAT AS
IT STANDS NOW IN THE LAW IN
CANADA IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO
GET SOMETHING REMOVED.
WHEN I LOOK AT THE CIRCUMSTANCES
AND I LOOK AT THE PERSON AND
THEY TELL ME THEIR STORY AND I'M
LIKE, I CAN'T DO ANYTHING.
>> Reporter: THE SIMPLE ANSWER
AS TO WHY IS THAT CANADA DOESN'T
HAVE A RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN
LAW.
MENDELSON SAYS THAT THERE'S A
STRONG CASE FOR THINGS TO STAY
THAT WAY.
>> SO IF YOU WERE TAKING THE
EXAMPLE, LET'S SAY VLADIMIR
PUTIN WANTS ALL INFORMATION
ABOUT THINGS THAT HE HAS DONE IN
CRIMEA REMOVED FROM THE
INTERNET.
WELL, THOSE ARE BAD THINGS THAT
HE DID IN THE PAST, SO IF THE
LAW IN RUSSIA SAYS THAT, WELL,
THERE SHOULDN'T BE BAD
INFORMATION ABOUT VLADIMIR PUTIN
ON THE INTERNET, WELL, I THINK
WE CAN AGREE HERE IN THE WEST
THAT WOULD BE PROBLEMATIC.
>> Reporter: STILL MENDELSON
GETS ALL KINDS OF CALLS FOR
PEOPLE WHO ARE DESPERATE FOR
THINGS TO BE TAKEN FROM THE WEB.
AND THOSE CALLS HAVE CHANGED
HIS VIEW OF THE INTERNET.
>> WHEN I STARTED THIS SIX OR
SEVEN YEARS AGO I WOULD HAVE
SAID, WELL, EVERYTHING SHOULD BE
ON THE INTERNET AND WE SHOULDN'T
CENSOR THE INTERNET AND WE
SHOULDN'T REMOVE CONTENT FROM
THE INTERNET UNLESS IT'S TRULY
ILLEGAL -- CHILD PORNOGRAPHY AND
THINGS LIKE THAT.
HAVING SEEN WHAT IT'S DONE TO
REAL PEOPLE IT'S MUCH MORE
DIFFICULT FOR ME TO HAVE THAT
OPINION BECAUSE I CAN SEE THESE
ACTUAL REAL WORLD EXAMPLES
WHERE, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE'S LIVES
HAVE BEEN DESTROYED.
>> Reporter: LIKE MICHAEL
KYDD.
THE SEXUAL ASSAULT ALLEGATION
WILL HANG OVER HIS HEAD FOREVER.
MAYBE IT SHOULD, MAYBE IT
SHOULDN'T.
REMEMBER, POLICE INVESTIGATED
AND NO CHARGES WERE LAID.
>> I PERSONALLY THINK THAT FACT
SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE
INTERNET.
YOU CAN'T CLAIM SOMETHING NOW
THAT SOMETHING HAS BEEN
DISPROVEN OR AT LEAST NOT RISE
TO THE LEGAL DEFINITION OF
SEXUAL ASSAULT, YOU KNOW, BY THE
AUTHORITIES.
SO AS A RESULT, YOU KNOW, I
WOULD CERTAINLY SUPPORT A RIGHT
TO BE FORGOTTEN IN THOSE
CIRCUMSTANCES.
>> Reporter: IN MENDELSON'S
OPINION, MICHAEL KYDD'S CASE
MEETS A KIND OF LEGAL GUT CHECK.
BUT WITH NO RIGHT TO BE
FORGOTTEN LAW IN CANADA, THAT
DOESN'T MEAN MUCH.
SO WHAT OPTIONS DO YOU ACTUALLY
HAVE?
WELL, YOU COULD GO SEE SOMEONE
LIKE MATT EARL.
EARL IS THE FOUNDER AND THE
C.E.O. OF A COMPANY CALLED
REPUTATION.CA.
WHAT ARE YOU SELLING?
>> WHAT YOU ARE SELLING IS AN
IMPROVEMENT IN YOUR ONLINE
REPUTATION.
BASICALLY A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE
GOING TO GOOGLE YOU SO WE KIND
OF GET THIS THERE AND MANAGE THE
KIND OF INFORMATION THAT THEY'LL
COME ACROSS WHEN THEY DO
RESEARCH ON YOU.
>> Reporter: ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT
REPUTATION.CA DOES IS PUT
POSITIVE MATERIAL ONLINE ABOUT
THEIR CLIENTS.
THIS IS THE SEARCH RESULT WHEN
THE CLIENT COMES TO SEE YOU?
>> YEAH.
>> Reporter: THE IDEA IS TO
PUSH THE BAD LINKS FARTHER DOWN
IN THE SEARCH AND MAKE THEM
HARDER TO FIND.
MICHAEL KYDD ACTUALLY CONTACTED
REPUTATION.CA FOR HELP AND SO I
ASKED MATT EARL WHAT HE COULD DO
FOR HIM.
>> WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR IS
THE SEARCH RESULTS FOR MICHAEL
KYDD IN GOOGLE.CA.
WHAT OUR SOFTWARE DOES IS THAT
IT PROVIDES A QUOTE
BASED ON YOU CLICKING THE
NEGATIVE ONES THAT YOU WANT TO
REMOVE.
THE FIRST ONE, OBVIOUSLY,
NEGATIVE.
WE HAVE TO CLICK THAT.
AND IMMEDIATELY YOU WILL SEE
OVER HERE A QUOTE --
>> Reporter: RIGHT TO GET RID
OF NUMBER ONE $27,000.
>> AS YOU CLICK MORE YOU WILL
ADD MORE COST AND MORE TIME AND
MORE DIFFICULTY TO SUPPRESSING
THOSE OUT OF YOUR TOP SEARCH
RESULTS.
SO THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT
OF WORK.
THIS IS A
VERY DIFFICULT AND VERY COMPLEX
CASE AND WE'RE LOOKING AT 14
MONTHS AND $2,500 A MONTH AND
$35,000 TO CHANGE THIS SEARCH
RESULT.
>> Reporter: $35,000.
SO IF YOU HAVE MONEY IT SEEMS
THAT YOU HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF
HIDING THINGS THAT YOU DON'T
WANT ON THE INTERNET.
AND THAT'S NOT MICHAEL KYDD.
IN THE END HE COULDN'T AFFORD
REPUTATION.CA AND SAID THAT HE'S
TRIED TO KEEP A LOW PROFILE AND
PIECE HIS LIFE TOGETHER BY
HIMSELF.
WHICH, OF COURSE, BRINGS ME TO
THE QUESTION THAT MAYBE YOU'RE
WONDERING AS
WELL -- WHY ARE YOU TALKING TO
US?
>> BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE
HAVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE MISTAKES
AND LIVE THEIR LIVES.
THERE'S OTHER PEOPLE OUT THERE
WHO ARE GOING THROUGH THE SAME
THING EVERY SINGLE DAY.
MEN AND WOMEN.
AND I THINK THAT THEY HAVE A
RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN TOO.
>> Reporter: TODAY MICHAEL
KYDD WORKS AT A CALL CENTRE.
AND TARRAH McPHERSON NEVER GOT
HER DEGREE FROM MOUNT SAINT
VINCENT.
>> THERE'S NOTHING WORSE AS A
MOTHER THAN SEEING YOUR KIDS
HURTING BECAUSE OF SOMETHING
THAT YOU WERE ATTACHED TO OR
INVOLVED IN.
I DO BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING
NEEDS TO BE DONE.
>> Reporter: MAYBE YOU BELIEVE
THAT MICHAEL KYDD AND TARRAH
McPHERSON HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE
FORGOTTEN, MAYBE YOU DON'T.
BUT WHATEVER YOU THINK IF WE
CAN'T GET THE INTERNET TO
FORGET, THEN THERE ARE NO SECOND
CHANCES FOR ANYONE.
NICK PURDON, CBC NEWS, TORONTO.
>> Adrienne: SO JUST LIKE
CANADA, THE UNITED STATES HASN'T
LEGISTATED A RIGHT TO BE
FORGOTTEN.
IN THE EUROPEAN UNION THOUGH
IT'S THE LAW THAT SEARCH ENGINES
LIKE GOOGLE MUST CONSIDER
REQUESTS TO REMOVE SEARCH
RESULTS.
AND IF THEY REJECT IT THE
APPLICANT CAN GO TO COURT.
EARLIER THIS MONTH A COURT IN
THE UNITED KINGDOM OVERRULED
GOOGLE ON BEHALF OF A
BUSINESSMAN WITH A PAST CRIMINAL
CONVICTION AND OBSERVERS CALL
THAT A LANDMARK CASE.
PROBABLY WON'T BE THE ONLY ONE
TO WATCH.
>> Andrew: RIGHT, AND WE
SHOULD
MENTION, I MEAN, CBC NEWS HAS A
POLICY ABOUT REMOVING ONLINE
CONTENT BECAUSE WE DO SOMETIMES
RECEIVE REQUESTS TO TAKE CERTAIN
STORIES DOWN.
GENERALLY WE DO NOT COMPLY.
THE POLICY ON THAT READS "OUR
PUBLISHED CONTENT IS A MATTER OF
PUBLIC RECORD... ALTERING THE
RECORD COULD UNDERMINE OUR
CREDIBILITY AND THE PUBLIC'S
TRUST IN OUR JOURNALISM."
THAT BEING SAID THOUGH, THERE
ARE SOMETIMES EXCEPTIONS.
FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN THERE ARE
LEGAL ISSUES OR CONCERNS FOR A
PERSON'S SAFETY.
>> Rosemary: LOTS TO THINK
ABOUT THERE.
WHEN WE COME BACK "THE NATIONAL"
DIVES INTO SWEDEN'S DUMPSTERS TO
FIND OUT HOW THE COMPANY MANAGES
TO KEEP SO MUCH FROM THE
LANDFILL.
IT TURNS OUT THAT SWEDISH HOMES
ARE GARBAGE POWERED.
>> 80,000 HOUSEHOLDS GET THEIR
ENERGY FROM THIS BUILDING.
IT'S ABOUT FIVE TONNES OF
GARBAGE IN THAT CLAW AND YOU
HAVE THE SAME AMOUNT OF
(*)
>> Rosemary: HOW DO I SAY THIS
DELICATELY?
WE ARE A NATION OF GARBAGE, NO,
I MEAN LITERALLY.
AS WE HAVE REPORTED CANADA WAS
SIGNALLED OUT FOR PRODUCING MORE
PER CAPITA THAN ANY OTHER
DEVELOPED COUNTRY.
SWEDEN, ON THE OTHER HAND, IS
ONE OF THE BEST PERFORMERS.
AS PART OF OUR SERIES NAHLAH
AYED WENT TO DISCOVER THE
SWEDISH GARBAGE SECRET.
>> Reporter: BY REPUTATION
SWEDEN'S RECYCLING PROGRAMME IS
REVOLUTIONARY.
SO SUCCESSFUL, WE ARE TOLD, THAT
IT IMPORTS GARBAGE FROM OTHER
COUNTRIES TO KEEP ITS PLANT LIKE
THIS ONE GOING 24/7.
HERE ON SWEDEN'S WEST COAST GAR
BOOJ ARE BADGE BECOMES ENERGY.
>> IT'S ABOUT FIVE TONNES OF
GARBAGE IN THAT CLAW AND YOU
HAVE THE SAME AMOUNT OF ENERGY
IN ONE CLAW TO HAVE ENERGY FOR
ONE VILLA FOR A YEAR.
(*)
>> Reporter: RECYCLING IS IN
SWEDEN'S D.N.A., LONG PAST
INFANCY.
>> WE KEEP OUR PLASTICS HERE AND
IT DOESN'T LOOK THAT NICE...
>> Reporter: THE BEST MEASURE
OF THE EFFORT IS AT THE DAILY
ROUTINE AT HOMES LIKE THIS ONE.
>> I KEEP IT SEPARATE AND I
BRING A BAG EVERY THURSDAY OR
SOMETHING.
>> Reporter: THE FRONTLINE IN
SWEDEN'S PROGRAMME THOUGH IS
OUTDOORS.
IT DEPENDS ON PEOPLE'S
WILLINGNESS TO TAKE IT OUT ALL
THE WAY TO THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
DEPOT, COME RAIN, SHINE OR SNOW.
>> SEPARATING IT IN MY DAILY
LIFE IT DOESN'T TAKE THAT MUCH
FOR ME.
AND, I MEAN, I BRING THIS ON MY
WAY TO WORK.
WE'VE BEEN HERE I WOULD SAY TOPS
FIVE MINUTES.
SO IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME.
>> Reporter: BUT ALL THIS IS
ACTUALLY EVIDENCE THAT THERE'S
STILL ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT.
IN A PART OF THE WORLD THAT
FROWNS ON LANDFILLS, ANYTHING
THAT'S NOT RECYCLED ENDS UP
HERE.
(*)
THE RENOVA PLANT IS JOINTLY
OWNED AND OPERATED BY 10
MUNICIPALITIES.
THE GARBAGE IS BURNED IN A
FURNACE HEATED TO 1,000 DEGREES
CELSIUS.
THE HEAT AND POWER THEN PUMPED
BACK INTO THE AREA'S HOMES.
>> AROUND 80,000 HOUSEHOLDS GET
THEIR ENERGY FROM THIS BUILDING
AND 37% OF THE HOUSES GET THEIR
HEAT FROM THIS FACILITY.
>> Reporter: IMPRESSIVE, BUT
CRITICS INSIST THAT BURNING
ISN'T RECYCLING AND POLLUTES THE
AIR.
SO SAYS THIS RESIDENT FROM THE
U.K. WITHOUT INCINERATION
NETWORK.
>> THE MATERIAL THAT GOES INTO
AN INCINERATOR SHOULD NOT BE
SEEN AS WASTE THAT HAS NO VALUE.
IT SHOULD BE SEEN AS A RESOURCE,
AS SOMETHING THAT AS PAUL SIMON
SAYS, ONE MAN'S CEILING IS
ANOTHER MAN'S FLOOR.
>> Reporter: BUT EVEN MORE
RECYCLING, SAYS RENOVA, WOULD
STILL PRODUCE WASTE TO BURN.
SO WE'RE NOT SEEING THIS
TECHNOLOGY GOING AWAY ANYTIME
SOON?
>> NO, WE DON'T THINK SO.
WE BELIEVE THAT THIS FACILITY
HAS CAPACITY TO RUN FOR AT LEAST
25, 30 YEARS.
AND POSSIBLY THAT WE WILL HAVE
TO BUILD A NEW PLANT AFTER THAT.
(*)
>> Reporter: BUT IN AN EFFORT
TO DO LESS BURNING AND MORE
RECYCLING, THE FUTURE MAY
INCREASINGLY LOOK LIKE THIS.
RETUNA IS A RECYCLING CENTRE AND
A MALL ALL IN ONE -- FIRST OF
ITS KIND.
>> THIS IS THE SPORTS STORE.
>> Reporter: MANAGER ANNA
BURKESTROM TOOK US ON A STORE.
EVERYTHING ON SALE HERE IS MADE
OF SOMETHING ELSE.
YES, EVEN THOSE TABLES AND
CHAIRS.
>> WE ACCEPT EVERYTHING AND WE
RE-SORT IT AND LEAVE IT TO OUR
TENANTS FOR THE SHOPS AND THEN
THEY WILL DECIDE WHAT TO DO WITH
EVERYTHING.
IT'S A COMBINATION OF WANTING TO
SAVE THE PLANET AND ALSO MAKE
MONEY OUT OF IT.
I LOVE THE IDEA THAT WE CAN MAKE
MONEY ON BEING SUSTAINABLE.
SO I THINK THAT IS A BEAUTIFUL
AND BRILLIANT BUSINESS PLAN.
>> Reporter: OFFICIALS INSIST
THAT THE AIM IS TO SEE
INCINERATION GO THE WAY OF
LANDFILLS IN SWEDEN, IN OTHER
WORDS, PRETTY MUCH OBSOLETE.
SO THE MESSAGE HERE IS BUY LESS
AND TAKE EVERYDAY RECYCLING TO
AN INDUSTRIAL LEVEL.
NAHLAH AYED, CBC NEWS,
GOTTENBURG, SWEDEN.
>> Rosemary: WE HAVE WORK TO
DO STILL.
YOU CAN FIND MORE OF OUR SERIES
ON RECYCLING ON FACEBOOK.
WE HAVE ALSO SET SET UP A GROUP
THERE THAT YOU CAN SHARE IDEAS.
JUST SEARCH
REDUCE, REUSE, RETHINK.
>> Adrienne: A LOT MORE
TONIGHT ON "THE NATIONAL" BUT,
FIRST, WE WANT TO TAKE YOU TO
AFGHANISTAN.
NO STRANGER TO TRAGEDY AND A
PLACE WHERE TODAY TWIN BLASTS
ECHOED ALL AROUND THE WORLD.
AFTER THE FIRST BOMB WENT OFF IN
FRONT OF A BUILDING USED BY
AFGHAN INTELLIGENCE, A SECOND
ATTACKER MINGLED AMIDST A GROUP
OF GATHERING JOURNALISTS AND
THEN SET OFF HIS EXPLOSIVES.
IN TOTAL 25 PEOPLE WERE KILLED,
AT LEAST NINE WERE JOURNALISTS,
INCLUDING SEVERAL WHO WORKED FOR
LOCAL TV AND ONE BBC REPORTER.
ALWAYS KILLED IN THE BLAST WAS
SHAH MARAI, THE CHIEF
PHOTOGRAPHER FOR AFP KABUL
BUREAU.
OVER 20 YEARS IN AFGHANISTAN,
MARAI TOOK OVER 18,000
PHOTOGRAPHS.
HIS CAREER, LIKE THE COURSE OF
THE WAR IN AFGHANISTAN, TRACING
A PATH FROM HOPE TO DESPAIR.
SHAH MARAI STARTED IN THE LATE
1990s WHEN AFGHANISTAN WAS
UNDER TALIBAN RULE.
HE CAPTURED A TIME OF RELATIVE
PEACE OF AFGHANS AND
INTERNATIONAL TROOPS, INCLUDING
CANADIANS FULL OF HOPE.
COLLEAGUE CHRIS OTTEN REMEMBERS
HOW MARAI REVELED IN THE FREEDOM
FREEDOM.
>> I THINK THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE
THINK ABOUT AFGHANISTAN AS A
PLACE OF TRAGEDY AND BOMBS AND
SO FORTH BUT HE ENJOYED TAKING
PICTURES OF THE LIFESTYLE,
PEOPLE HOLDING HANDS IN THE
PARKS IN KABUL.
>> Adrienne: BUT AS MARAI
WROTE SHORTLY BEFORE HIS DEATH
"THE TALIBAN CAME BACK... THEY
BEGAN TO SPREAD LIKE A VIRUS"
AND OVER THE YEARS MORE AND MORE
OF MARAI'S PHOTOS SHOWED
THE HOPE AND PROMISE OF A NEW
AFGHANISTAN BUCKLING --
BREAKING.
HE CONCLUDED "15 YEARS AFTER THE
AMERICAN INTERVENTION, THE
AFGHANS FIND THEMSELVES WITHOUT
MONEY, WITHOUT WORK... THERE IS
NO MORE HOPE.
LIFE SEEMS TO BE EVEN MORE
DIFFICULT THAN UNDER THE TALIBAN
BECAUSE OF THE INSECURITY.
I HAVE NEVER FELT LIFE TO HAVE
SO LITTLE PROSPECTS AND I DON'T
SEE A WAY OUT."
THE LAST STORY THAT SHAH MARAI
COVERED FOR AFP WAS THE FIFTH
SUICIDE BOMBING IN RECENT
WEEKS -- THE SIXTH TOOK HIS
LIFE.
>> Andrew: TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL," INVESTIGATORS IN
CALGARY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT
HOW A BODY ENDED UP INSIDE A
WASHROOM WALL AT A DOWNTOWN
SHOPPING MALL.
POLICE SAY A MAINTENANCE WORKER
MADE THE DISCOVERY AFTER BEING
CALLED TO FIX A BROKEN TOILET.
THEY REMOVED A PANEL FROM THE
WALL TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG AND
FOUND A BODY INSIDE.
ONE THEORY IS SOMEONE CRAWLING
THROUGH A VENT FELL AND GOT
STUCK.
THE INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING.
>>> A MAJOR COURT RULING AGAINST
TORONTO POLICE CONSTABLE JAMES
FORCILLO.
ONTARIO'S HIGHEST COURT HAS
DISMISSED HIS APPEAL OF HIS
ATTEMPTED MURDER CONVICTION FOR
THE SHOOTING DEATH OF
18-YEAR-OLD SAMMY YATIM.
HIS SIX-YEAR PRISON SENTENCE WAS
ALSO UPHELD.
FORCILLO'S LAWYER SAID THAT THE
TEAM IS CONSIDERING WHETHER TO
TAKE THEIR CASE TO THE SUPREME
COURT.
>> Rosemary: A TORONTO MAN IS
CELEBRATING A HUMAN RIGHTS RULE.
WHEN EMILE WICKHAM WAS ASKED TO
PREPAY FOR HIS FOOD, HE FILED A
DISPUTE.
TODAY HE WAS AWARDED $10,000 IN
DAMAGES.
THAT'S OUR "MOMENT OF THE DAY."
>> IT IMMEDIATELY RAISED A RED
FLAG.
WE IMMEDIATELY ASKED, IS THIS
NECESSARY?
AND WE WERE TOLD IT WAS STANDARD
PROCEDURE.
IT JUST DIDN'T SIT RIGHT WITH
ME.
I GOT UP AND I WENT TO EACH
TABLE AND I ASKED AND, EVERY
TABLE SAID, NO.
IT WAS JUST A TIME FOR US TO
UNWIND AND THE FACT THAT WE
COULDN'T DO THAT IN A CITY THAT
REALLY PLAYS UP ITS
MULTICULTURALISM REALLY SAYS
SOMETHING.
I DECIDED THERE AND THEN THAT
NIGHT THAT I WAS GOING TO LOOK
INTO THIS.
>> Andrew: YOU MENTIONED OFF THE
TOP, THE SAGA START TO FINISH
HAS TAKEN FOUR YEARS AND WICKHAM
SAID THAT HE HAS NOT RECEIVED A
FORMAL APOLOGY FROM THE
RESTAURANT.
>> Adrienne: HE SAID IT'S
CHANGED HIS FUNDAMENTAL VIEW OF
LEVEL OF INCLUSIVENESS IN
TORONTO AND IT WAS A RUDE
AWAKENING AND HE DOESN'T
ENTIRELY FEEL ACCEPTED HERE.
>> Rosemary: CBC TORONTO ASKED
FOR AN INTERVIEW AND THEY
DECLINED, SAYING THAT OWNERSHIP
HAD CHANGED SINCE THE INCIDENT.
THAT'S "THE NATIONAL" FOR APRIL
30.
THANKS FOR WATCHING, EVERYBODY.
GOOD NIGHT.
>> Adrienne: GOOD NIGHT.
>> Andrew: GOOD NIGHT.
