ON THIS FRIDAY NIGHT, THE
CANADIAN BORDER, THE MIGRANTS
CROSSING OVER IT, AND THE
POLITICAL AMMUNITION THEY
DELIVER.
CONSERVATIVES SAY ON THIS
PERCEIVED NATIONAL CRISIS,
CANADIANS SHOULD BE ON THEIR
SIDE, SHOULD TRUST THEIR LEADER.
WE'LL SHOW YOU WHY THAT MESSAGE
MAY BE CUTTING THROUGH.
ALSO TONIGHT, THE U.S. PRESIDENT
INTENSIFYING WAR OF WORDS.
WHY DONALD TRUMP BELIEVES
CALLING THE MEDIA THE ENEMY OF
THE PEOPLE IS A POLITICAL
WINNER, WHY THAT COULD BECOME
DANGEROUS VERY SOON.
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL".
>> Andrew: IF POLITICAL
CAMPAIGNS ARE FOUGHT OVER FACTS
AND PERCEPTIONS, WE MIGHT BE
GETTING A GLIMPSE OF ONE BATTLE
GROUND IN NEXT YEAR'S FEDERAL
ELECTION.
THE GOVERNMENT HAS GONE TO GREAT
LENGTHS TO CAST THIS COUNTRY AS
A WELCOMING PLACE, BUT ILLEGAL
CROSSINGS AT THE U.S. BORDER
SEEM TO HAVE CANADIANS ON EDGE
WITH THE OPPOSITION SEEING CLEAR
SIGNS OF A WEDGE.
HERE'S THE NUMBERS IN A NEW POLL
TO SET THE TABLE FOR YOU.
67% OF CANADIANS SURVEYED CALL
ILLEGAL BORDER CROSSINGS A
CRISIS.
THAT'S TWO-THIRDS AND THE SAME
NUMBER BELIEVE THERE ARE TOO
MANY PEOPLE FOR CANADA TO
HANDLE.
MORE THAN HALF SAY THE COUNTRY
IS TOO GENEROUS TO BORDER
CROSSERS AND 78% SAY BORDER
SECURITY IS IMPORTANT OR A MAJOR
PRIORITY.
NOT WHAT THE GOVERNMENT OF SUNNY
WAYS WANTS TO HEAR, BUT AS DAVID
COCHRANE EXPLAINS, THE
LIBERALING CONCEDED ONE THING,
THEY HAVE A MESSAGING PROBLEM.
>> I READ THE RESULTS OF THE
POLL.
>> Reporter: BILL BLAIR MAY BE
LOSING THE ARGUMENT OVER THE
BORDER, BUT HE SAYS IT'S NOT
BECAUSE OF THE FACTS.
>> IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE
ADDRESS MANY OF THE
MISCONCEPTIONS AND
MISINFORMATION THAT CANADIANS
HAVE HEARD, THAT QUITE FRANKLY,
CAUSES A FEAR, A FEAR NOT BASED
ON THE REALITY, BUT A FEAR ON
THE RHETORIC.
>> Reporter: WHETHER IT'S
REALITY OR RHETORIC, THE POLLS
SUGGEST THE LIBERALS HAVE A
PROBLEM ON THEIR HANDS.
>> WILLIAM STIRLING BLAIR.
>> Reporter: AND IT REVEALS WHY
BILL BLAIR WAS MOVED INTO THE
MINISTRY.
THE LIBERALS WERE LOSING THE
P.R. BATTLE TO THE CONSERVATIVES
WHO TRAMPLED THE ARGUMENT THAT
IS A CHALLENGE NOT A CRISIS.
>> ANY TIME YOU HAVE A
GOVERNMENT THAT ALLOWS 30,000
PEOPLE OVER THE COURSE OF A
SHORT PERIOD OF TIME TO COME
INTO CANADA ILLEGALLY, THE
IMPACT THAT HAS, THAT IS A
CRISIS.
AND CANADIANS HAVE A CRISIS OF
CONFIDENCE COME THEIR GOVERNMENT
RIGHT NOW.
>> Reporter: THE FACT IS THAT
THINGS ARE GETTING BETTER AT THE
BORDER, NOT WORSE.
THE NUMBER OF ILLEGAL BORDER
CROSSINGS IS GOING DOWN, BUT
PEOPLE ARE STILL COMING AND THE
COSTS KEEP CLIMBING.
SINCE EARLY LAST YEAR, OTTAWA
HAS SPENT AT LEAST $270 MILLION
TO DEAL WITH THE INFLUX.
>> ONTARIANS ARE
PRO-IMMIGRATION, BUT THE CURRENT
CRISIS HAS TESTED THEIR
PATIENCE.
>> Reporter: THE NEW ONTARIO
CONSERVATIVE GOVERNMENT HAS
JOINED THEIR FEDERAL COUSINS IN
SLAMMING OTTAWA'S RESPONSE.
AND EVEN THOUGH WHAT IS
HAPPENING HERE IS NOWHERE NEAR A
CRISIS IN GLOBAL TERMS, IN
DOMESTIC TERMS, IT'S DEFINITE A
POLITICAL PROBLEM.
>> THERE IS A REAL INFORMATION
GAP HERE AND WE HAVE TO DO A
BETTER JOB IN FILLING THAT GAP.
>> Reporter: IT'S A BLOW TO THE
TRUDEAU GOVERNMENT BRAND THAT
LOUDLY SELLS CANADA AS A
WELCOMING COUNTRY.
BUT THIS POLL ALSO SUGGESTS MORE
CANADIANS TRUST ANDREW SCHEER TO
GET IT RIGHT WHEN IT COMES TO
PEOPLE CROSSING THE BORDER THAN
TRUST THE PRIME MINISTER.
DAVID COCHRANE, CBC NEWS,
OTTAWA.
>> Andrew: THAT POLL BY THE WAY
WAS DONE ONLINE, BETWEEN JULY 25
AND 30.
1500 PEOPLE TOOK PART AND THERE
IS MARGIN OF ERROR OF PLUS OR
MINUS 2.5, 19 TIMES OUT OF 20.
THAT'S THE FINE PRINT.
NOW, YOU HEARD DAVID SAY ILLEGAL
CROSSINGS ARE GOING DOWN.
SO LET'S LOOK AT A SNAPSHOT OVER
TIME.
THE NUMBERS SPIKED DRAMATICALLY
LAST SUMMER AS THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION CLAMPED DOWN ON
U.S. BORDERS.
IT REACHED A HIGH OF 5300 IN THE
MONTH OF SEPTEMBER.
SINCE THEN, THE TREND HAS BEEN
DOWN.
THE NUMBER FELL FROM 2700 THIS
APRIL TO 2200 IN MAY, TO 1200 IN
JUNE.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT ELSE
WE'RE WORKING ON TONIGHT.
COULD POLICE IN MONTREAL HAVE
DONE MORE TO HELP THIS INUK
WOMAN?
SHE WAS FOR FROM HOME AND
DISAPPEARED FOR A WEEK.
>>> IN YEMEN, THERE IS A
DESPERATE PLEA FOR A CEASE-FIRE,
ONE THAT COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE
IN STAVING OFF A DEADLY
EPIDEMIC.
FIRST, THE CONTINUING WAR OF
WORDS BETWEEN THE U.S. PRESIDENT
AND ONE OF HIS FAVOURITE
PUNCHING BAGS, THE MAIN STREAM
MEDIA.
DONALD TRUMP IS STARTING A
10-DAY VACATION, BUT ON HIS WAY
OUT OF THE DOOR, HE TOOK PARTING
SHOTS CALLING THE MEDIA
DISGUSTING AND YOU GUESSED IT,
FAKE.
>> PRESIDENT USES RHETORIC THAT
IS SORT OF ANTI-MEDIA AND THE
CROWD RESPONDS TO THAT.
HE KNOWS THAT.
BUT IT CERTAINLY LATELY SEEMS TO
BE HAPPENING MORE AND MORE.
>> Andrew: IT HAPPENED AT THAT
RALLY YESTERDAY IN PENNSYLVANIA.
THE CROWD LOVED IT AND AS KEITH
BOAG TELLS US WITH MIDTERM
ELECTIONS COMING, THERE MAY BE
MANY MORE SUCH ATTACKS TO COME.
>> Reporter: DONALD TRUMP
SURROUNDED HIMSELF WITH THE
SOUNDS AND SYMBOLS OF PATRIOTISM
LAST NIGHT AND HIS ADORING CROWD
ATE IT UP.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
PENNSYLVANIA, THANK YOU.
>> Reporter: BUT BEFORE LONG, HE
GOT TO COMPLAINING THAT THE
GREATNESS OF HIS PRESIDENCY WAS
BEING DELIBERATELY UNDERMINED BY
INVESTIGATION INTO RUSSIAN
INTERFERENCE IN THE LAST
ELECTION.
>> NOW WE'RE BEING HINDERED BY
THE RUSSIAN HOAX.
>> Reporter: COMPLICIT IN THE
IMAGINED HOAX IS THE MEDIA OF
COURSE.
>> THEY CAN MAKE ANYTHING BAD
BECAUSE THEY ARE THE FAKE, FAKE,
DISGUSTING NEWS.
>> Reporter: IT WAS JUST
YESTERDAY THAT TRUMP'S OWN
SECURITY OFFICIAL SAID, NOT FOR
THE FIRST TIME, RUSSIAN
INTERFERENCE WAS NOT A HOAX.
>> IT IS REAL.
IT IS CONTINUING.
>> Reporter: DIRECTOR OF
NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE DAN COATS
AND FOUR OTHER MEMBERS OF THE
TRUMP NATIONAL SECURITY TEAM
GAVE A RARE PRESS BRIEFING THAT
DIRECTLY CONTRADICTS TRUMP'S
LINE.
>> WE CONTINUE TO SEE A
PERVASIVE MESSAGING CAMPAIGN BY
RUSSIA TO TRY TO WEAKEN AND
DIVIDE THE UNITED STATES.
>> Reporter: THERE IS LITTLE
DOUBT THE UNITED STATES IS
DIVIDED RIGHT NOW AND TO A GREAT
EXTENT THAT'S BECAUSE OF THE
TRUMP PRESIDENCY.
HE'S TAKING UP A LOT OF SPACE IN
PEOPLE'S LIVES AND THEY FIND
THEY EITHER LOVE HIM DEEPLY OR
HATE HIM DEEPLY.
THAT'S PARTLY BECAUSE THE
PRESIDENT HAS ENCOURAGED PEOPLE
TO BELIEVE MUCH OF THE MEDIA IS
FAKE AND THE ENEMY
>> CNN, FAKE NEWS, MSNBC, YOU
KNOW, THAT'S REALLY THE ENEMY OF
THE PEOPLE.
>> HI, EVERYONE.
>> Reporter: TRUMP'S DAUGHTER,
IVANKA PUBLICLY DISAGREED WITH
HIM ABOUT THAT YESTERDAY.
HER FATHER TWEETED SHE WAS
CORRECT, THAT THE MEDIA ARE NOT
THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE, JUST A
LARGE PERCENTAGE OF THEM ARE.
IN THE PAST, HE'S IDENTIFIED
SOME ENEMIES AS THE "NEW YORK
TIMES", NBC, ABC, CBS AND CNN.
TRUMP'S ENCOURAGEMENT OF
DISTRUST OF MEDIA LED TO ABUSE
AT JIM ACOSTA AS HE WAS TRYING
TO DO A REPORT IN FLORIDA.
>> THEY'RE SAYING CNN SUCKS, GO
HOME, FAKE NEWS.
WOLF, ALL OF THOSE THINGS ARE
FALSE.
>> Reporter: IN ANY EVENT EXPECT
MORE AS THE NOVEMBER ELECTIONS
DRAW CLOSER, TRUMP IS INCREASING
THE NUMBER OF RALLIES AND THAT
SEEMS TO MEAN STEPPING UP HIS
ATTACKS ON THE MEDIA, TOO.
>> Andrew: KEITH JOINS US TO
TALK MORE ABOUT THAT, BECAUSE IT
CAN BE HARD TO CUT THROUGH ALL
THE NOISE.
ARE JOURNALISTS IN THE U.S.
GENUINELY AFRAID FOR THEIR
SAFETY?
>> JOURNALISTS FEEL UNDER THREAT
AND ABUSE AS THE POLITICS HAS
LICENSED PEOPLE TO ATTACK THEM.
THEY'VE BEEN ROUGHED UP AND
PUSHED AROUND.
IN 2017, A REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE
RUNNING
RUNNING IN MONTANA BODY SLAMMED
A REPORTER.
>> Andrew: AS WE GET CLOSER TO
MID TERMS, THIS COULD GET WORSE?
>> THIS IS A MUCH MORE VIOLENT
COUNTRY THAN CANADA.
WE SEE MURDER IN PUBLIC PLACES
AND OFTEN IT'S MOTIVATED BY
HATRED.
WHEN TRUMP TELLS MEDIA ARE THE
ENEMY OF THE COUNTRY THEY SAY
THEY LOVE, HE'S PLAYING WITH
FIRE.
>> Andrew: KEITH BOAG IN
WASHINGTON.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
PLAYING WITH FIRE, NOT A BAD WAY
TO DESCRIBE ONE BURGEONING GROUP
OF FRINGE TRUMP SUPPORTERS THAT
IS ATTRACTING A FAIR BIT OF
ATTENTION.
YOU CAN RECOGNIZE THEM BY THE
Q'S, MEANING THEY SUPPORT A
CONSPIRACY THEORY REFERRED TO AS
Q ANONE.
IT'S FAR-FETCHED AND IT'S
STARTING TO GAIN TRACTION.
>> Reporter: YOU CAN SPOT THEM
AT DONALD TRUMP RALLIES THIS
WEEK, HOLDING SIGNS, WEARING
T-SHIRTS, ALL WITH THE LETTER Q.
SUPPORTERS OF THE CONSPIRACY
THEORY, NOW EMERGING FROM A
SHADOW CORNER OF THE INTERPRET
INTO THE MAINSTREAM.
>> PEOPLE SHOWED UP IN THESE --
>> Reporter: SUDDENLY QUESTIONS
ABOUT Q ANON-AS IT IS KNOWN WERE
BEING ASKED AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
>> THE PRESIDENT CONDEMNS AND
DENOUNCES ANY GROUP THAT WOULD
INCITE VIOLENCE AGAINST ANOTHER
INDIVIDUAL.
>> Reporter: IT BEGAN IN
OCTOBER, A PERSON OR GROUP OF
PEOPLE CLAIMING TO HAVE TOP
GOVERNMENT SECURITY POSTED ON
MESSAGE BOARDS, LEAVING CLUES TO
A VAST CONSPIRACY INVOLVING THE
DEEP STATE.
A GLOBAL RING OF PEDOPHILES AND
MORE.
BUT EXPERTS SAY THERE IS A
TWIST.
INSTEAD OF FRAMING THE ENTIRE
GOVERNMENT AS THE ENEMY, IN Q
ANON- TRUMP IS THE HERO.
>> THE THEORY IS THAT TRUMP IS
OUR SAVIOUR, EVERYTHING WE KNOW
ABOUT HIM IS SOMEWHAT WRONG, IF
NOT COMPLETELY WRONG.
THAT HE HAS APPOINTED MUELLER
NOT TO INVESTIGATE RUSSIAN
INTERFERENCE IN THE ELECTION,
BUT INSTEAD, A SATANIC CULT.
>> Reporter: ENTHUSIASTS COUNT
ROSEANNE BARR AMONG THEIR RANKS.
AND OFTEN TALK ABOUT A COMING
STORM.
SO, WHAT IS THE STORM?
>> AN ARREST OF ALL OF THE BAD
ACTORS, WHICH INCLUDES ALL OF
THE IMPORTANT DEMOCRATS OF THE
LAST DECADE, INCLUDING CLINTON
AND OBAMA, AND SOME REPUBLICANS.
>> Reporter: WHILE IT MAY BE
EASY TO DISMISS IT ALL AS ONLINE
FANTASY, IT'S CROSSING OVER TO
THE REAL WORLD.
CONSPIRACY THEORYS HAVE ALWAYS
BEEN A PART OF AMERICAN HISTORY,
BUT THIS PRESIDENT IS DIFFERENT.
>> TRUMP HAS GIVEN PERMISSION
FOR CONSPIRACY THEORIES IN WAYS
YOU DON'T SEE IN MAIN STREAM
POLITICIANS.
>> Reporter: SO WHAT WAS LIKELY
A TECHNICAL GLITCH TO Q
PROPONENTS, IS A SIGN THAT WITH
DONALD TRUMP THERE IS MUCH MORE
THAN MEETS THE EYE.
>> Andrew: TURNING NOW TO ONE OF
THE WORLD'S DEADLIEST CONFLICTS.
FOR YEARS, MILLIONS OF PEOPLE IN
YEMEN HAVE BEEN CAUGHT BETWEEN
WARRING FACTIONS AND EVEN WHEN
NOT IN THE LINE OF FIRE, THEY'RE
AT RISK FOR STARVATION AND
DISEASE.
IT'S A COUNTRY DISINTEGRATING
INTO CHAOS.
IT'S HARD TO OVERSTATE HOW GRIM
THE SITUATION IS, BUT ALSO HOW
LITTLE UNDERSTOOD IT IS TO
OUTSIDERS, BECAUSE YEMEN IS NOT
JUST A COUNTRY AT WAR WITH
ITSELF.
IT'S A BATTLE GROUND VYING FOR
DOMINANCE.
HERE'S A BRIEF LOOK AT HOW IT
ALL STARTED.
>> Andrew: THE SEEDS OF THE
CURRENT CRISIS WERE PLANTED
DURING THE ARAB SPRING OF 2011.
IT BROUGHT POLITICAL UPHEVAL
ACROSS THE MIDDLE EAST.
IN YEMEN, THAT MEANT A NEW
LEADER.
BUT A SUNNI MUSLIM STRUGGLED TO
CONTROL MILITANT VIOLENCE,
STARVATION AND CORRUPTION.
BY 2014, AN OPPOSING GROUP, A
SHIA HOUTHI REBEL MOVEMENT
BACKED BY IRAN AND OPPOSED TO
SAUDI AND WESTERN INFLUENCE,
SEIZED HUGE CHUNKS OF THE
COUNTRY.
SAUDI ARABIA LAUNCHED A MILITARY
OFFENSIVE, DELIVERING DEADLY AIR
STRIKES, THANKS TO FIGHTER JETS
FROM THE WEST.
IRAN RESPONDED, POURING MILITARY
RESOURCES INTO HOUTHI CONTROLLED
YEMEN.
SO TODAY, WHAT BEGAN AS AN
INTERNAL CONFLICT DRAGS ON AS A
PROXY WAR BETWEEN THE TWO
STRONGERS POWERS, BUT AS IRAN
FIGHTS SAUDI ARABIA FOR
SUPREMACY, IT IS YEMENIS IN THE
CROSSFIRE.
70% OF DESPERATELY NEEDED RELIEF
SUPPLIES ENTER THE COUNTRY AND
AS KATIE SIMPSON TELLS US, AID
GROUPS ARE WARNING A CHOLERA
EPIDEMIC COULD BE AROUND THE
CORNER.
>> Reporter: A DESPERATE RUSH TO
SAVE THE INJURED ON THE STREETS
OF HODEIDAH.
SAUDI FORCES ARE BLAMED FOR THE
AIR STRIKES IN THE REBEL-HELD
CITY, THE COUNTRY'S MAIN POINT
OF ENTRY FOR BADLY NEEDED FOOD
AND AID.
THE ESCALATED VIOLENCE IS
TRIGGERING A BLUNT DEMAND FROM
THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION.
>> FOR THREE FULL DAYS OF
TRANQUILITY TO LAY DOWN ARMS AND
ALLOW US TO VACCINATE THE CITY
FOR CHOLERA.
>> Reporter: IF IT IS TOO UNSAFE
FOR AID MEMBERS TO TAKE THE
MEASURES TO STOP THE SPREAD OF
CHOLERA, YEMEN MAY BE SEIZED BY
THE EPIDEMIC.
YEARS OF MALNUTRITION MAKES THE
POPULATION EXTREMELY VULNERABLE.
>> AND NOT ONLY MORE CASES
BECAUSE OF THAT, BUT EVEN HIGHER
DEATH RATES AMONG THE CHOLERA
CASES THAT DO OCCUR, BECAUSE
PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THE PHYSICAL
RESOURCES TO FIGHT THE DISEASE
ANY LONGER.
>> IT'S NOT AN EXAGGERATION TO
SAY THAT THE HUMANITARIAN
SITUATION ACROSS THE COUNTRY IS
CATASTROPHIC.
>> Reporter: THE U.N. CALLS THIS
CONFLICT THE WORLD'S LARGEST
HUMANITARIAN DISASTER.
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE
BEEN KILLED, WHILE MILLIONS HAVE
BEEN DISPLACED.
AND THE FIGHTING BETWEEN THE
HOUTHI REBELS BACKED BY IRAN,
AND THE GOVERNMENT SUPPORTED BY
SAUDI ARABIA, HAS BEEN
INTENSIFYING.
>> MORE THAN 80% OF THE
POPULATION IN YEMEN IS IN NEED
OF SOME KIND OF AID.
AND FOUR YEARS INTO THE WAR, THE
SITUATION IS GETTING WORSE.
>> Reporter: THE U.N. IS
BUILDING ON CALLS FOR A
TEMPORARY TRUCE IN THE HOPES OF
GETTING CLOSER TO A PERMANENT
PEACE.
>> WE URGE THE PARTIES TO
RESOLVE THIS CONFLICT THROUGH
NEGOTIATION RATHER THAN THROUGH
MILITARY MEANS.
>> Reporter: ALL SIDES IN THE
CONFLICT ARE INVITED TO GENEVA
FOR HIGH LEVEL MEETINGS IN
SEPTEMBER, BUT THAT IS LITTLE
COMFORT FOR CIVILIANS ON THE
GROUND WHO STRUGGLE TO SURVIVE
IN THE MOST DEVASTATING
CONDITIONS.
>> Andrew: THERE IS A TWIST
TONIGHT IN A DEVELOPING STORY IN
ALBERTA.
THE SHOOTING OF A GERMAN
TOURIST.
IT HAPPENED YESTERDAY ON THE
HIGHWAY NORTHWEST OF CALGARY
NEAR MORLEY.
CAROLYN DUNN JOINS US NOW.
WHAT IS THE LATEST?
>> Reporter: WELL, A LOT
ACTUALLY.
POLICE INITIALLY BELIEVED THAT
THIS WAS AN INCIDENT OF ROAD
RAGE, BUT NOT ANYMORE.
THE INFORMATION THEY'VE GATHERED
SUGGESTS IT WAS NOT ONLY NOT
ROAD RAGE, THAT IT WAS NOT
RANDOM.
AND FURTHER THE GERMAN TOURISTS
WHO WERE DRIVING IN A DODGE
DURANGO WERE NOT ACTUALLY THE
TARGETS OF THE SHOOTING.
SO THE OBVIOUS QUESTIONS THAT
COME TO MIND AFTER THAT, WAS
THIS A CASE OF MISTAKEN
IDENTITY?
OR PERHAPS SOMEONE ELSE IN A
SIMILAR TYPE CAR WAS THE TARGET.
THESE ARE QUESTIONS THAT WE HOPE
THE POLICE WILL BE ABLE TO
ANSWER AS THEIR INVESTIGATION
CONTINUES.
>> Andrew: RIGHT.
ARE POLICE SAYING MUCH MORE
ABOUT THE INVESTIGATION?
>> WELL, AS A RESULT OF TIPS AND
INTELLIGENCE GATHERED, RCMP
SEIZED A BLACK CHRYSLER SEBRING
AT A RESIDENCE IN COCHRANE,
ALBERTA, TODAY, THEY ALSO
DETAINED AN ADULT MALE AND HE IS
NOT CONSIDERED A SUSPECT AT THIS
POINT, ALTHOUGH HIS ROLE OR LACK
OF ROLE IS BEING INVESTIGATED.
AND JUST AN UPDATE ON THE VICTIM
IN THIS CASE.
ANDREW, THE GERMAN GENTLEMAN, 60
YEARS OLD, UNDERWENT EMERGENCY
SURGERY LAST NIGHT TO REMOVE A
SMALL CALIBER BULLET FROM HIS
HEAD AND HE REMAINS IN CRITICAL,
BUT STABLE CONDITION.
>> Andrew: CAROLYN DUNN IN
CALGARY, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>>> SOME OF THE OTHER DEVELOPING
STORIES WE'RE TRACKING INCLUDE A
CALL FOR CREWS AROUND THE WORLD
TO COME HELP FIGHT WILDFIRES IN
BRITISH COLUMBIA.
THERE ARE NEARLY 450 OF THEM
BURNING RIGHT NOW IN B.C.
MANY OF WHICH WERE STARTED THIS
WEEK BY A SERIES OF LIGHTNING
STORMS.
ACCORDING TO THE PROVINCE,
FIREFIGHTERS FROM MEXICO, AND AS
FAR AS AWAY AS NEW ZEALAND ARE
EXPECTED TO ARRIVE SOON.
>>> AND WE'RE KEEPING AN EYE ON
LYNCH BURG, VIRGINIA, WHERE
HEAVY RAINS PUT AN AGING DAM AT
RISK OF COLLAPSE.
IF THE DAM FAILED, IT COULD SEND
MORE THAN FIVE METRES OF WATER
RUSHING THROUGH THE CITY IN JUST
SEVEN MINUTES.
MORE THAN 100 HOMES WERE
EVACUATED JUST TO BE SAFE, BUT
TONIGHT WE'RE HEARING THE
SITUATION IS IMPROVING AND
THEY'VE STABILIZED THE DAM FOR
NOW.
>>> LOTS MORE STILL TO COME HERE
ON "THE NATIONAL".
AN INUK WOMAN, RECEIVING MEDICAL
CARE IN MONTREAL FINDS HERSELF
IN POLICE CUSTODY AND IT'S WHAT
HAPPENED NEXT THAT IS RAISING
SERIOUS QUESTIONS.
ALSO, WHAT IS NEXT FOR ZIMBABWE?
THE SO-CALLED CROCODILE IS THAT
COUNTRY'S NEWLY ELECTED
PRESIDENT, BUT THE AFTERMATH HAS
BEEN TENSE.
SUMMER CAMP IN TORONTO, TEACHING
YOUNG BLACK STUDENTS THE HISTORY
THEY DON'T GET IN SCHOOL.
>> Andrew: THE DISTURBING STORY
OF AN INUK WOMAN IN MONTREAL IS
RAISING CONCERNS ABOUT TREATMENT
OF THE PEOPLE FROM THE NORTH WHO
COME SOUTH FOR MEDICAL CARE.
THE WOMAN WAS REMOVED BY POLICE
AFTER AN INCIDENT INVOLVING
ALCOHOL FROM A REHABILITATION
CENTRE.
BUT INSTEAD OF BLING HER BACK --
BRINGING HER BACK, THEY GAVE HER
A BUS TICKET.
>> Reporter: TONIGHT, THIS WOMAN
IS RESTING HERE AT AN INUIT
HEALTH RESOURCE CENTRE ON THE
MONTREAL WEST ISLAND.
>> SHE IS DOING WELL AND IS
GOING HOME TOMORROW.
VERY GOOD NEWS, SO SHE'S WELL
ENOUGH TO GO HOME NOW.
>> Reporter: WHILE SHE RETURNS
HOME TO HER COMMUNITY IN
NUNAVIK, SHE IS ANSWERING
QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW SHE WAS
RELEASED FROM POLICE CUSTODY.
>> I THOUGHT IT WAS SAD AND
UNACCEPTABLE.
>> Reporter: HARSH WORDS FROM
THE MAYOR OF MONTREAL WHO SAYS
IT'S TIME FOR POLICE TO TAKE A
LOOK AT THEIR PROCEDURES.
IT'S STILL NOT CLEAR WHY IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, SHE WAS
SENT OFF ON HER OWN FAR FROM THE
CITY CORE, RATHER THAN BEING
SENT BACK TO THIS CENTRE WHERE
SHE WAS RECOVERING FROM A BROKEN
ARM AFTER BEING HIT BY A POLICE
VEHICLE IN HER HOMETOWN.
>> FIRST, WE FOLLOW UP WITH THE
POLICE.
>> AS FAR AS THIS SPECIFIC CASE
IS CONCERNED, YOU CAN'T SAY IF
THAT HAPPENED.
>> Reporter: HE SAYS THEY ALWAYS
DO WHAT THEY CAN TO KEEP THEIR
PATIENTS SAFE AND GIVE THEM THE
BEST CARE POSSIBLE.
POLICE HAD NO COMMENT TODAY,
THOUGH AN ABORIGINAL LIAISON
OFFICER DID MEET WITH THE WOMAN
TODAY.
>> IT'S NOT SO MUCH WHAT IS
WRONG, BUT WHAT COULD BE
IMPROVED.
>> Reporter: MAGGIE SAYS SHE
HOPES THE CASE WILL BE A LESSON
TO ALL STAKEHOLDERS, INCLUDING
THE CITY POLICE.
>> I BELIEVE WE'RE MOVING
TOWARDS BETTER RELATIONSHIP WITH
THE OTHER STATIONS OF SPVM,
FOLLOWING THE STORY OF MINA GONE
MISSING.
>> Reporter: SHE SAYS THE ONE
GOOD THING TO COME OUT OF THIS,
THERE ARE NOW PLANS FOR HER TO
PROVIDE SENSITIVITY TRAINING
ACROSS THE MONTREAL POLICE
FORCE, AN IDEA SHE THINKS WILL
BE HELPFUL IN CITIES ACROSS
CANADA.
>> Andrew: WE WANT TO CLARIFY A
POINT IN THE STORY WE BROUGHT
YOU LAST NIGHT ABOUT PARENT
PORTALS IN ALBERTA.
THE CONNECT CARE WEBSITE HAS NOT
BEEN DELAYED, IT'S SCHEDULED TO
BEGIN ROLLING OUT NEXT YEAR.
>>> WHY WOULD A GROWN MAN GROW
UP AS A RADISH TO COMMUTE TO
WORK?
HE HAS HIS REASONS.
THAT IS OUR "MOMENT OF THE DAY".
FIRST, AN INSIDE LOOK AT SUMMER
SCHOOL, TEACHING BLACK CHILDREN
TO ENVISION A POSITIVE FUTURE.
>> WE WANT TO SIT BACK AND
LISTEN TO IF YOU GOT TO CREATE A
WORLD FOR BLACK PEOPLE, WHAT
WOULD IT BE LIKE?
GOING TO THINK OF THE CHARACTER
YOU WANT TO BE PROMINENT IN THE
STORY.
REMEMBER TO THINK OF YOURSELF.
>> Andrew: NOT ALL ARE SPENDING
ITS BREAK SLEEPING IN AND
PLAYING WITH FRIENDS.
WE WANT TO SHOW YOU A SPECIAL
PROGRAMME.
FOR THREE WEEKS, A GROUP OF
KIDS, AGE 4-10 ARE TAUGHT THE
HISTORY THEY DON'T GET IN PUBLIC
SCHOOL.
THEY LEARN ABOUT BLACK
RESISTANCE, LIBERATION AND
SELF-LOV
SELF-LOVE.
>> IF ANYONE IS LIKE DESTINED TO
BE A LEADER, BUT I CAN
DEFINITELY BECOME A LEADER,
YEAH.
[ * ]
>> AND I'M GOING TO THE BLACK
LIVES MATTER CAMP, I'LL BE A
YOUTH LEADER, WHICH MEANS I'LL
BE HELPING THE REGULAR LEADERS
WITH TEACHING THE KIDS HOW TO GO
AROUND THE CAMP AND SOME OF THE
ACTIVITIES.
I HAVEN'T EVER GONE TO A BLACK
LIVES MATTER CAMP.
I'VE GONE TO THEIR EVENTS, BUT
NEVER THE CAMP.
>> FISHMAYBE WE CAN GO AROUND AND
SAY OUR NAME.
MY NAME IS LEROY, I'M THE
COORDINATOR OF FREEDOM SCHOOL
AND I WORK IN THE -- SERVING THE
PEOPLE IN THE BIG KIDS ROOM, THE
FREEDOM FIGHTER ROOM.
>> IT HAS TO DO WITH THE QUALITY
OF EDUCATION THAT OUR KIDS
RECEIVE.
TALKING TO PARENTS AND BEING A
PARENT MYSELF AND BEING AN
EDUCATOR AS WELL IN THE SYSTEM,
WE NOTICE THAT BLACK KIDS OFTEN
DON'T GET A CHANCE TO LEARN VERY
MUCH ABOUT OURSELVES AND OUR
HISTORY AND CULTURE AT ALL.
WHEN WE DO, WE MOST OFTEN LEARN
ABOUT ENSLAVEMENT AND
OPPRESSION.
>> THE SCHOOL THAT WE CREATED
CALLED THE OAKLAND COMMUNITY
SCHOOL, IN THEIR PARTY, THEY HAD
A 10-PARTY PLATFORM, THEY HAD
TEN THINGS THEY BELIEVED IN TO
LIFT UP BLACK PEOPLE.
SO, WE HAVE A KIDS VERSION OF
THE 10-POINT PLATFORM WE SAY TO
REMIND US OF OUR PURPOSE.
>> MOON?
>> WE WANT LAND.
>> WE WAND LAND.
BREAD, HOUSING.
EDUCATION.
>> HAVING ARRIVED AT 13 AND
WITNESSING HIM GOING THROUGH 13,
IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE A
SPACE WHERE HE CAN LEAD WHILE
LEARNING, BECAUSE DEVELOPING
YOUR AUTONOMY, DEVELOPING YOUR
SENSE OF SELF, THOSE THINGS ARE
IMPORTANT.
AND SO TO BE IN A SPACE THAT
WILL NURTURE THAT, BUT ALSO
CHALLENGE A RESPONSIBILITY AND
ALSO CHALLENGE A LACK OF EMPATHY
AND CHALLENGE A LACK OF
COMPASSION AND TO CHALLENGE THAT
IN A GENTLE AND SUPPORTIVE WAY,
THAT'S HEALTHY, THAT'S HOW WE
GROW.
SO I REALLY AM EXCITED AT THIS
JOURNEY FOR HIM.
>> SO ON YOUR ORANGE PAPER,
YOU'RE GOING TO THINK OF THE
CHARACTERS WHO YOU WANT TO BE
PROMINENT IN YOUR STORY.
REMEMBER TO INCLUDE YOURSELF.
>> SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
RESPECTING THE POWER THAT KIDS
HAVE TO ENVISION ANOTHER WORLD
AND TO ENVISION A FUTURE THAT A
COULD BE DIFFERENT FOR BLACK
PEOPLE.
THEY'RE WATCHING A LOT OF REALLY
VIOLENT THINGS HAPPEN TO THEIR
COMMUNITIES AND THEIR PEOPLE.
WE WANT TO SIT BACK AND LISTEN
TO IF YOU GOT TO CREATE A WORLD
FOR BLACK PEOPLE, WHAT WOULD IT
BE LIKE?
HOW WOULD YOU SOLVE YOUR
PROBLEMS?
IF IT'S NOT WITH POLICE, HOW
WOULD IT BE?
IF IT'S NOT WITH PRISON, HOW
WOULD IT BE?
IT MADE THE LAND ABSOLUTELY
STUNNING.
JUST LIKE THAT.
WITH A FLASH OF LIGHT.
>> OOOH.
>> YOUR MOM TELL YOU THAT.
>>
WELL, THEY REALLY DON'T TALK
ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE IN THAT
SCHOOL.
BECAUSE THAT'S A WHITE PEOPLE
SCHOOL.
I THINK THERE NEEDS TO BE A
SELF-DETERMINED, WHERE THEY'RE
SEVEN GAUGED AND PARENTS NEED TO
BE IN THE CLASSROOM WITH THEM.
[ * ]
* CAN'T SEE THROUGH MY PAIN
* WHEN I TAKE THEM OFF,
EVERYTHING IS GRAY *
* EVERYTHING IS IN GRAYSCALE
[CHEERING]
* EVERYTHING IS IN GRAYSCALE
AND WE ALSO WANT TO SAY A BIG
THANK YOU.
THERE WAS MANY STAFF WHO HELPED
US OVER THESE THREE WEEKS, DOING
EVERYTHING FROM COOKING FOR US,
DRIVING US, TAKING CARE OF US.
TEACHING US, HELPING US LEARN.
EVERYTHING.
MOON.
[CHEERING]
>> THEY WERE ENGAGED IN THE
PROGRAMMING.
THEY WERE COMFORTABLE, IT FELT
LIKE A FAMILY WE BUILT OVER THE
THREE WEEKS WE WERE TOGETHER.
>> Andrew: WHAT YOU JUST SAW
THERE WAS A VERSION OF FREEDOM
SUMMER THAT HAS BEEN SHORTENED.
FOR THE FULL FILM, HEAD TO
CBC.CA SHORT DOKSZ.
UP NEXT, ON "THE NATIONAL",
WOULD YOU WANT TO WATCH YOUR
FAVOURITE PODCAST ON TV?
TELEVISION AND WHAT IT TAKES TO
MAKE IT, COMING UP.
>> YOU DON'T WANT THE STRAW,
YOU'RE GETTING A WEDGY FROM
SHAQ.
>> WE THOUGHT WE COULD TAKE A
PODCAST AND JUST PUT ON CAMERAS
AND MAKE A TELEVISION SHOW.
AND WE QUICKLY LEARNED THAT DOES
NOT WORK.
>> Andrew: FIRST THOUGH, POP
STAR, LADY GAGA SAYS IT'S TIME
TO DRAG MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES OUT
OF THE SHADOWS.
HER PLEA COMES AFTER THE
APPARENT SUICIDE OF THE CANADIAN
MODEL AND ARTIST KNOWN TO THE
WORLD AS ZOMBIE BOY.
>> MY FIRST WAS RIGHT HERE WHEN
I WAS 16, IT'S A SKULL AND CROSS
BONES.
PIRATES.
IT'S PRETTY COOL.
>> Andrew: HE WAS JUST 15 YEARS
OLD WHEN HE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A
BRAIN TUMOUR THAT COULD HAVE
LEFT HIM DEAD OR DISFIGURED.
HE DECIDED TO LIVE LIFE ON HIS
OWN TERMS AND TURN HIS BODY INTO
A CONSTANTLY EVOLVING WORK OF
ART.
HIS FACE WAS TRANSFIGURED BEFORE
HE WAS 21.
THE FASHION WORLD WAS DRAWN TO
HIS ME TICK LOUSE ART AND HE
SHOT TO FAME IN THE SMASH VIDEO,
BORN THIS WAY BY LADY GAGA.
* OF THE INSECURE
* SELF-RESPECT MY YOUTH
>> Andrew: HIS STATED GOAL WAS
TO BE A FREAK, TO EMBRACE A LOOK
LIKE THIS, HE WROTE, YOU CAN'T
CARE WHAT PEOPLE THINK.
IRONICALLY ENOUGH, HIS OUTSIDER
LOOK IS WHAT DROVE HIS SUCCESS.
HE EVEN BECAME THE FACE OF A
MAKEUP CONCEALER BRAND.
HE FOUND FAME AND GLAMOUROUS
FRIENDS.
LADY GAGA CALLED HIS SUICIDE
BEYOND DEVASTATING.
WE HAVE TO WORK HARDER TO CHANGE
THE CULTURE, BRING MENTAL HEALTH
TO THE FOREFRONT AND ERASE THE
STIGMA THAT WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT
IT.
WE MUST SAVE EACH OTHER.
>> Go to Millwood
and block this injunction.
>> I've never seen
anything like it.
>> Why is your firm
so interested in Millwood?
>> I hope you haven't been
listening to malicious rumours.
>> My daughter is sick.
>> It's tragic,
but it's not your job
to fix it.
* [ dramatic ]
>> Announcer: Jonny's back.
>> Fufu.
>> Yeah, Fufu.
>> And I was like,
"Who's Fufu?"
>> Announcer: Still Standing.
>> I mean, look at Joe,
he doesn't look like the type
to have a Chihuahua at home.
>> Here's the Fufu.
>> Fufu.
>> Announcer: Part of
the Tuesday night
comedy line-up.
Returns September 18th on CBC.
IS THE QUESTIONS OF WHO, WHAT,
WHEN, WHERE HOW.
WHAT WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO
ANSWER IS WHY STEPHEN PADDOCK
COMMITTED THIS ACT.
>> Andrew: A QUESTION QUESTION
UNANSWERED AS THE LAS VEGAS
PLACE CLOSE THE INVESTIGATION.
THE GUNMAN HAS LOST A LOT OF
MONEY BEFORE THE ATTACK, BUT IN
THE FINAL REPORT, POLICE SAY
THEY STILL CAN'T EXPLAIN WHY HE
DID IT.
HE WAS THE ONLY GUNMAN AND HE
LEFT NO NOTE.
58 PEOPLE WERE KILLED AND MORE
THAN 800 OTHERS HURT IN THAT
ATTACK.
>>> DISGRACED HOLLYWOOD MOVIE
MOGUL HARVEY WEINSTEIN IS TRYING
TO GET SEXUAL ASSAULT CHARGES
AGAINST HIM THROWN OUT.
IN A MOTION, HIS LAWYERS ARGUED
THAT E-MAILS SENT TO HIM BY ONE
OF THE ALLEGED VICTIMS AFTER HE
WAS ALLEGED TO RAPE HER, IS
CONSENT.
>>> THERE IS NO RELIEF IN SIGHT
FOR SOUTHERN EUROPE AS AN
ONGOING HEATWAVE TIGHTENS ITS
GRIP.
IN PORTUGAL TODAY, IT GOT SO HOT
THAT EIGHT PLACES BROKE RECORDS.
TEMPERATURES HIT 45° CELSIUS.
IN NEIGHBORING SPAIN, TWO DEATHS
ARE LINKED TO THE HEAT.
WIDESPREAD WARNINGS ARE IN PLACE
AS TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO
CLIMB THIS WEEKEND.
>>> NEWS TONIGHT FOR AEROPLAN.
IT STRUCK A DEAL WITH PORTER
AIRLINES.
YOU'LL BE ABLE TO COLLECT POINTS
IF YOU FLY WITH THE AIRLINE AND
ABLE TO USE POINTS IF BOOK THE
TICKETS.
2020 IS WHEN THE CONTRACT WITH
AIR CANADA EXPIRES.
A GROUP HAD BEEN TRYING TO BUY
THE LOYALTY PROGRAMME, BUT TALKS
FELL THROUGH YESTERDAY.
A DEAL IS STILL POSSIBLE, IT IS
STILL OPEN TO NEGOTIATING.
>>> WITH THE MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN
CONSTANT FLUX, A NEW PATH TO TV
FAME HAS EMERGED.
PODCASTS ARE LEAPING AHEAD IN
POPULARITY AND YOU'VE PROBABLY
HEARD BROADCASTERS ARE IN
RETREAT, BUT TV IS STILL THE
BIGGER PLATFORM AND IT'S HUNGRY
FOR CONTENT.
ELI GLASNER LOOKS AT WHAT MIGHT
BE THE START OF A BEAUTIFUL
FRIENDSHIP.
>> Reporter: J.E. IS A BIG
BASKETBALL FAN, SO WHEN THE
TORONTO BROADCASTING STUDENT
FINISHED SCHOOL, IT WAS NATURAL
TO LAUNCH A PODCAST WITH HIS
FRIENDS.
>> EPISODE 3, NOVEMBER 14, 2008.
>> Reporter: THE BASKETBALL
JONES BRAND OF FAN FRIENDLY
ANALYSIS WAS CATCHING ON.
THEN THEY GOT THE CALL OF A
LIFETIME.
>> HERE'S NBA TV CONTOGETHER
TACTING US, HEY, WE LIKE WHAT
YOU'RE DOING UP THERE.
SO BASKETBALL JONES BECAME A
SHOW WHERE SKEETS INTERACTS WITH
IDOLS IN WAYS HE NEVER IMAGINED.
THE STARTERS ARE PART OF A NEW
WAVE OF PODCAST MOVING FROM YOUR
PHONE TO YOUR TV.
THE COMEDY OF TWO DOPE QUEENS
STARTED AS PODCAST.
NOW IT'S --
>> RIGHT HERE ON HBO, RIGHT
AFTER GAME OF TORONTOS TT.
>> WE'RE NOT AFTER "GAME OF
THRONES".
THAT'S JUST A FEW OF THE NUMBER
OF PODCASTS ATTEMPTING THE TV
TRANSITION.
PART OF WHAT IS DRIVING THE
TREND IS THE POPULARITY OF
PODCASTS.
FIVE YEARS AGO, ONLY 12% OF THE
AMERICANS LISTENED TO PODCASTS
MONTHLY, NOW IT'S UP TO 26%.
WITH MILLENNIALS AS THE BIGGEST
PORTION OF THE AUDIENCE,
BROADCASTERS ARE LOOKING FOR
WAYS TO GET IN.
>> OUR VERY HUMBLE PODCAST
STUDIO.
>> STILL NEEDS A LITTLE WORK?
>> WE'RE EXPANDING RAPIDLY.
STARTUP FOCUS IS NOT ON THE NICE
CHAIRS BUT THE WORK WE'RE DOING.
>> Reporter: IT'S NOT ABOUT HOW
THE RECORDING ROOM LOOKS, BUT
DISCOVERING NEW VOICES.
>> THE INDUSTRIAL PROCESS OF
MAKING TV AND FILMS IN THIS
COUNTRY IS SO DIFFICULT.
AND I THINK WHAT IS THE
INTERESTING OPPORTUNITY ABOUT
PODCASTING IT ALLOWS US TO BUILD
AUTHENTIC VOICES AND AUDIENCES.
>> I DON'T THINK WE BELIEVE
EVERY ONE OF THE PODCASTS WILL
TRANSLATE, LIKE EVERY BOOK
DOWNTOWN.
BUT IT'S ANOTHER AVENUE TO FIND
A POINT OF VIEW.
AND THERE ARE A FEW THAT WE HAVE
IN DEVELOPMENT THAT WILL
TRANSLATE.
>> WHY SHOULD I INVEST IN YOUR
PODCAST COMPANY?
>> IT'S THE CADILLAC OF PODCAST
COMPANIES.
>> Reporter: NOT EVERY PODCAST
CAN MANAGE THE TRANSITION.
STARTUP WAS ABOUT ALAN
BLOOMBERG'S ATTEMPT TO SET UP
HIS OWN COMPANY.
BUT AS ALEX INCORPORATED, IT
LACKED BLOOMBERG'S TOUCH AND WAS
CANCELLED AFTER A SINGLE SEASON.
FOR SKEETS --
>> WE THOUGHT WE COULD TAKE A
PODCAST AND PUT ON CAMERAS AND
MAKE A TELEVISION SHOW AND WE
LEARNED THAT DOES NOT WORK.
>> I FEAR THE SANDSTORM TO BE
QUITE A TERRIBLE EVENT.
>> Reporter: WHICH IS WHY AFTER
THEATRE AND BOOK DEAL, NIGHT
VEIL HANDED THE ENTIRE PILOT
OVER THE SHOW RUNNER FROM
"BETTER CALL SAUL", TO DEVELOP
THE SHOW FOR THE FX NETWORK.
>> IT'S A LOT DIFFERENT AND A
LOT MORE PLOT BASED AN NARRATIVE
AND VISUAL.
SO WE REALLY DO HAVE TO RELY ON
PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO MAKE
THOSE THINGS.
IF THE NIGHT VALE PILOT IS
PICKED UP, IT WILL REACH MORE
PEOPLE THAN THE PODCAST EVER
DID.
THE QUESTION IS CAN THEY KEEP IT
PERSONAL AS TV COMES CALLING?
>> Andrew: THE SITUATION ON THE
GROUND IN ZIMBABWE THIS WEEKEND
IS TENSE TO SAY THE LEAST.
THE NEW PRESIDENT HAS OFFICIALLY
BEEN ELECTED, BUT THE OPPOSITION
SAYS THE VOTE WAS RIGGED.
FIRST, A REMINDER TO SUBSCRIBE
TO OUR NEWSLETTER.
IT HIGHLIGHTS SOME OF THE
STORIES YOU MAY HAVE MISSED.
TODAY, WAS THE OUTRAGE IN RUSSIA
OVER PLANS TO RAISE THE AGE FOR
PEOPLE TO RECEIVE THEIR
PENSIONS.
THE BIG PROBLEM, IT'S BEYOND THE
LIFE EXPECTANCY FOR SOME IN THAT
COUNTRY.
>> What do I like?
I like open fires,
moon-lit nights, chatty letters,
rainy days. I like day dreaming.
I love this colourful little
island of ruby, emerald,
and sapphire.
Yet, often, my dark moods come.
They possess body and soul
by their suppression.
They say a woman
shouldn't write.
Some days, I almost give up.
But I cannot contain
my imagination.
I made Anne real.
I gave her my love of nature,
my love of books,
and my childhood dreams.
My greatest happiness
would be to climb
the Alpine Path,
and write upon it,
a woman's humble name.
>> Lucy Maud Montgomery
battled depression,
rejection, and sexism,
to become known around the world
for Anne of Green Gables,
and 19 other novels.
>> I PLEDGE TO BE THE PRESIDENT
OF ALL ZIMBABWEANS.
A PRESIDENT OF THOSE THAT VOTED
FOR ME, AND THOSE WHO DID NOT.
>> Andrew: THE RESULTS OF
ZIMBABWE'S PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
ARE IN, BUT NOT EVERYBODY AGREES
WITH THEM.
THE 75-YEAR-OLD WINNER HAS TIES
TO THE OLD REGIME OF DISGRACED
FORMER LEADER ROBERT MUGABE AND
CRITICS ARE CLAIMING THE VOTE
WAS RIGGED.
EUROPEAN UNION OBSERVERS AND THE
STATE DEPARTMENT ARE VERY
VIEWING THE RESULTS.
>> Reporter: IT WAS QUITE A
SCENE OF CHAOS IN HARARE, AS
THEY WERE WAITING FOR ELECTION
TO GET UNDER WAY.
POLICE WEARING HELMETS AND
WIELDING BATONS AND SHIELDS
BARGED IN, DEMANDING REPORTERS
LEAVE, THEY WERE YELLING GET
OUT, GET OUT, EVENTUALLY NELSON
CHAMISA'S POLITICAL PARTY SAID
IT WAS NOT A POLITICAL RALLY
UNTIL THE PRESS CONFERENCE WAS
BACK ON.
ONCE HE WAS ABLE TO SPEAK, HE
CLAIMED THE RESULTS OF THE
ELECTION WAS WRONG.
>> TODAY IS A DAY OF MOURNING.
MOURNING OVER DEMOCRACY.
IT IS A BLACK DAY BECAUSE WE'RE
SEE AGO REPEAT OF WHAT WE SAW IN
THE REGIME.
>> Reporter: HIS PARTY REFERS TO
HIM AS MR. PRESIDENT, THEY
FIRMLY BELIEVE THE ELECTION WAS
RIGGED FOR THE LONG RULING PARTY
ZANU-PF.
THE POST THE ELECTION --
PRESIDENT OF THE ELECTION,
EMMERSON MNANGAGWA SAID WE WON
THE ELECTION FREELY AND FAIRLY.
THE OPPOSITION SAYS THEY'RE
CHALLENGING THE ELECTION RESULTS
IN COURT.
THEY'RE FEARFUL THEY'RE SEEING A
REPEAT OF THE ELECTION-RIGGING
THAT WAS SYNONYMOUS WITH THE
ROBERT MUGABE ERA THAT ZIMBABWE
ENDURED OVER FOUR DECADES.
>> Andrew: SWITCHING GEARS, OUR
"MOMENT OF THE DAY" IS NEXT.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU TAKE A
TWO-HOUR COMMUTE DRESSED AS A
VEGETABLE?
WE'LL MEET A MAN EMBARRASSING
HIMSELF FOR A GOOD CAUSE.
>> MOST PEOPLE PLAY IT COOL, IT
IS TORONTO AREA, YOU KNOW,
PEOPLE USUALLY LOOK AT ME
SUBTLY.
I GET A LOT OF PEOPLE ASKING ME
IF I'M A PEPPER, A STRAWBERRY.
>> Andrew: REMEMBER, IF YOU WANT
TO SHARE THE MOMENT, YOU CAN
FIND IT ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA
CHANNE
CHANNELS, Facebook AND TWITTER.
WE'RE ALSO ON INSTAGRAM.
>> Andrew: A HAMILTON, ONTARIO
MAN IS HOPING TO CATCH THE
ATTENTION OF COMMUTERS.
THAT'S WHERE THIS COSTUME COMES
IN.
IN CASE IT'S NOT CLEAR, AND IT
MAY NOT BE, HE'S DRESSED AS A
RADISH.
AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT HE
BREAKS OUT EACH TIME HE HITS HIS
DONATION GOAL.
ALL PART OF AN EFFORT TO RAISE
MONEY FOR A LOCAL FOOD BANK.
INTRIGUING IDEA, SO WE TAGGED
ALONG FOR HIS COMMUTE AND THAT'S
OUR "MOMENT OF THE DAY".
>> RADISH WAS A LITTLE SILLY,
MORE RIDICULOUS, PEOPLE ASK A
FEW MORE QUESTIONS AND IT'S
SPICY.
>> GOT TO BE A STORY.
>> THERE IS A STORY.
ABSOLUTELY, THERE IS A STORY.
[LAUGHTER]
>> I'M RAISING MONEY FOR NORTH
YORK HARVEST FOOD BANK.
I'M CHAIR OF THE BOARD AND FOR
EVERY THOUSAND DOLLARS I RAISE,
I WOULD COMMUTE FROM TORONTO TO
HAMILTON, DRESSED AS A RADISH.
PEOPLE LOOK AT ME KIND OF
SUBTLY.
>> GOOD MORNING.
>> DONATIONS.
>> NO WAY, REALLY?
AMAZING.
ONE, TWO, THREE.
>> $6,000 SO FAR, SO IT'S WORTH
IT.
IT'S A LOT OF PUBLIC TIME
DRESSED AS A BIG VEGETABLE.
I'LL KEEP GOING AS LONG AS THE
SUPPORT CONTINUES.
IT'S 100 DAYS, I'LL DO IT FOR
100 DAYS.
IF YOU WANT TO SPREAD THE WORD,
JOIN ME ON THE GO TRAIN.
>> Andrew: IT IS A LONG TIME TO
DRESS AS A VEGETABLE, BUT
CLEARLY FOR A GOOD CAUSE.
HE RAISED $6,000 SO FAR, SO THAT
IS SIX TIMES HE'S HAD TO DRESS
AS A RADISH AND HOP ON THE
TRAIN.
THE FUNNY PART ABOUT THAT,
APPARENTLY WHEN HE FIRST HAD THE
IDEA, HE THOUGHT MAYBE I'LL HAVE
TO DO THIS ONE OR TWICE, IF I
MANAGE TO RAISE $2,000 BUCKS,
BUT HE TRIPLED THAT AND HE SAID
$6,000 GOES A LONG WAY.
IT'S ABOUT 18,000 MEALS.
SO, HEY, GOOD FOR HIM.
THAT IS "THE NATIONAL" FOR THIS
AUGUST 3, HAVE A GREAT NIGHT AND
A GREAT WEEKEND.
