>> Ian: ON THIS MONDAY NIGHT THE
LIGHTS ARE MOSTLY BACK ON IN
OTTAWA BUT THE CLEANUP FROM THE
DEVASTATING TORNADOES HAS ONLY
JUST BEGUN.
AS PEOPLE RETURN TO SURVEY THE
DESTRUCTION, WHY SOME ARE
INSISTING ON STAYING IN THEIR
DAMAGED HOMES, LIVING WITH THE
REMINDERS OF THAT TERRIFYING
NIGHT.
AND HOW THE WEATHER COULD SOON
BRING MORE PROBLEMS.
>> Adrienne: ALSO TONIGHT
DONALD TRUMP'S SUPREME COURT
PICK HITS BACK AGAINST HIS
ACCUSERS,
THIS TIME IN PRIMETIME.
THE PRESIDENT MAY BE STANDING BY
HIS MAN BUT THE OFFICIAL
OVERSEEING THE RUSSIA
INVESTIGATION MIGHT NOT BE SO
LUCKY.
WILL TRUMP SAY "YOU'RE FIRED"?
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
(*)
(*)
>> Ian: JUST WHEN THEY THOUGHT
THAT IT COULDN'T GET MUCH WORSE,
PEOPLE WHO LOST SO MUCH IN
FRIDAY'S TORNADOES HAVE EVEN
MORE
TO WORRY ABOUT TONIGHT.
YOU HAVE ALREADY HEARD ABOUT THE
HUNDREDS OF DAMAGED HOMES AND
BUSINESSES IN THE
OTTAWA-GATINEAU AREA, WITH
GAPING HOLES IN ROOFS AND BLOWN
BE OUT WINDOWS, IF THEY'RE
STILL STANDING AT ALL.
FOR THOSE STILL INHABITABLE,
TODAY THE SCRAMBLE WAS ON TO FIX
THEM, BOARD THEM OR TARP THEM,
TO PREVENT MORE DAMAGE WHEN THE
DAYS OF RAIN BEGIN IN THE
MORNING.
OUR COVERAGE HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON
THE COMMUNITY OF DUNROBIN SO
TONIGHT WE'RE TAKING YOU TO THE
SECOND TORNADO DAMAGE ZONE, THE
WEST OTTAWA NEIGHBOURHOOD OF
ARLINGTON WOODS.
AS CATHERINE CULLENS REPORTS,
THE WOODS ARE WHAT CAUSED SO
MUCH RUIN.
>> OH, MY GOODNESS.
>> Reporter: WELCOME TO FRANK
MAURITZ'S BACKYARD.
NOW, FRANK, WERE YOU HOME WHEN
THIS HAPPENED?
>> I WAS, YEAH.
>> Reporter: IN A FEW SECONDS
THE TORNADO TURNED HIS YARD,
HIS HOME, AND HIS LIFE UPSIDE
DOWN.
BUT HE AND HIS NEIGHBOURS
ARE DETERMINED TO FIX IT.
WE HAVE TO MAKE PLANS AND WE
HAVE TO REBUILD.
>> Reporter: HE OFFERS TO SHOW
US THE WORK THAT HAS ALREADY
STARTED.
THE FIRST STEP, COVERING THE
HOLES IN THE ROOF.
IS THERE A TREE NEARBY?
>> THERE'S ONE OUTSIDE, EH.
>> Reporter: INCREDIBLY THE
MOURITZ'S ARE STILL LIVING IN
THE HOUSE EVEN THOUGH THERE'S NO
POWER.
IF THEY FIND OUT THAT THE POWER
CAN'T SAFELY BE TURNED BACK ON
THEY WILL HAVE A NEW CHALLENGE.
>> IT MIGHT BE THAT THEY WILL
DECLARE THIS HOUSE UNLIVABLE.
>> Reporter: BUT YOU'RE LIVING
IN IT RIGHT NOW.
>> RIGHT.
BUT I HAVE NO POWER.
>> Reporter: THEY JUST KEEP
FOCUSED ON CLEANING UP, THOUGH
IT SEEMS LIKE AN IMPOSSIBLY BIG
TASK.
WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE
CLEANUP WHAT IS GOING THROUGH
YOUR MIND?
>> IT'S JUST TOO HORRENDOUS.
I DON'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT
NOW BECAUSE I THINK THAT I MIGHT
BREAK.
AND I'M TRYING TO STAY STRONG
AND POSITIVE.
SO I JUST MOVE IT OUT OF MY
MIND.
VERY OFTEN I PRAY INTERNALLY AND
I ASK FOR STRENGTH.
>> Reporter: OTHERS ARE
PRAYING TOO.
THE TORNADO RIPPED A CHUNK OF
THE ROOF RIGHT OFF ARLINGTON
WOODS' CHURCH.
>> IT LOOKED LIKE PART OF THAT
ROOF WAS JUST READY TO COME
RIGHT OFF.
>> Reporter: WORKERS ARE NOW
RACING TO TRY TO COVER UP THE
HOLES BEFORE THE RAIN FORECAST
FOR TOMORROW.
>> OBVIOUSLY, THEY'RE PUTTING
THIS BACK TOGETHER AGAIN HERE AS
FAR AS GETTING EVERYTHING TARPED
IN.
>> Reporter: PASTOR MIKE
HOGEBOOM SAYS
THAT HE'S GOING ON ADRENALIN.
YESTERDAY THEY HELD THE CHURCH
SERVICE IN THE PARKING LOT.
>> WE'RE TRYING TO PUT OUR
PIECES BACK TOGETHER AGAIN WHILE
YOU'RE WORKING ALONG TO TRY TO
HELP SOME OF THE FOLKS THAT ARE
HURTING AND GRIEVING IN THIS
COMMUNITY.
SO IT'S QUITE A PROCESS.
>> Reporter: CHURCH MEMBERS
ARE BOTH HELPING AND BEING
HELPED RIGHT NOW.
THEY SET UP A PLACE FOR
NEIGHBOURS TO CHARGE PHONES,
WHICH TURNED INTO A PLACE TO GET
COFFEE.
AND THEN CAME DONATIONS OF FOOD
FROM NEARBY RESTAURANTS.
>> IT'S ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL TO
SEE HOW THE COMMUNITY HAS COME
TOGETHER AND, YEAH, THERE'S NO
PLACE I'D RATHER BE.
>> Reporter: EVEN WITH SO MUCH
WORK AHEAD.
CATHERINE CULLEN, CBC NEWS,
OTTAWA.
>> Ian: THAT WORK THAT LIES
AHEAD ISN'T JUST ON HOMES.
SINCE FRIDAY IT'S BEEN A RACE TO
FIX ALL OF THE LINES DAMAGED
BY THE TORNADOES.
AT THE PEAK OF THE OUTAGE ABOUT
300,000 HOMES IN THE REGION WERE
WITHOUT POWER.
NOW TONIGHT THAT'S DOWN TO JUST
ABOUT 4,700 CUSTOMERS AND MANY
OF THEM
WILL HAVE ELECTRICITY RESTORED
SOME TIME OVERNIGHT.
OUR KATIE SIMPSON RODE ALONG
TODAY WITH ONE OF THE CREWS
WORKING TIRELESSLY TO GET THE
LIGHTS BACK ON.
>> HEY, ROCK?
HEY, ROCK?
EVERYTHING GOOD UP THERE?
>> Reporter: THIS IS WHAT
HYDRO WORKERS CALL HAND-TO-HAND
BATTLE, ABOUT A DOZEN CREW
MEMBERS ARE NEEDED TO REPLACE
THESE HYDRO POLES SNAPPED IN
HALF BY A TORNADO AND LEFT
DANGLING OVER A GAS STATION.
WHEN YOU GUYS ROLLED UP HERE,
DESCRIBE TO ME WHAT THE SCENE
LOOKED LIKE.
>> WE ROLLED UP HERE, THE FIRST
THING THAT CAME TO MY MIND IS
WHERE DO I START.
>> Reporter: DARCY PROVOST HAS
BEEN WITH OTTAWA HYDRO FOR 30
YEARS.
HE SAYS HE'S NEVER SEEN
DESTRUCTION LIKE THIS BEFORE,
SAY, FOR THE ICE STORM IN 1998.
>> AS WE WERE WATCHING THE
NUMBERS GROW AND GROW WITH THE
OUTAGE REPORT, WE KNEW THAT WE
WERE INTO
SOMETHING REALLY, REALLY BIG.
>> Reporter: AT THE PEAK OF
THE CHAOS, MORE THAN HALF OF
OTTAWA WAS IN THE DARK.
BUT AFTER THREE DAYS OF
AROUND-THE-CLOCK EFFORTS AND
HELP FROM OUT-OF-TOWN HYDRO
WORKERS, MOST OF THE OUTAGES
HAVE BEEN RESTORED.
AS THE CREWS FINISHED UP THIS
INTERSECTION JOB, SOME WORKERS
HEADED BACK TO ONE OF THE
HARDEST-HIT NEIGHBORHOODS WHERE
THE RESTORATION WILL TAKE MUCH
LONGER.
>> THE PROBLEM WITH THIS
PARTICULAR SITE IS THAT WE DON'T
KNOW, WE CAN'T DO AN ASSESSMENT
YET BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH
DEBRIS.
WE DON'T KNOW WHAT HAS BEEN
DAMAGED.
>> Reporter: HE'S THE DIRECTOR
OF OTTAWA HYDRO.
HE SAYS THAT ONE THING THAT
MAKES THE DIFFICULT WORK A
LITTLE EASIER IS THE RESPONSE
FROM THE COMMUNITY.
>> SO WE WENT TO COSTCO AND
BOUGHT SNACK BARS AND GATORADE
TO KEEP EVERYONE HYDRATED.
AT LEAST THEY WON'T GO HUNGRY.
>> Reporter: RANDOM ACTS OF
KINDNESS ARE BREAKING OUT ALL
OVER THE CITY.
>> YOU HAVE PEOPLE THAT THEIR
LIVES HAVE BEEN DEVASTATED BY
THIS.
AND WHAT OUR GUYS HAVE
EXPERIENCED IS PEOPLE COMING OUT
TO
THEM AND BRINGING COFFEE AND
BRINGING FOOD TO THEM.
IT'S OVERWHELMING TO THEM.
>> Reporter: OTTAWA HYDRO
HOPES THAT THE FEELINGS OF
GRATITUDE WILL LAST SINCE THIS
CLEANUP IS A BATTLE THAT IS LONG
FROM BEING WON.
KATIE SIMPSON, CBC NEWS, OTTAWA.
>> Ian: ONE LAST NOTE ON
FRIDAY'S STORM.
TONIGHT ENVIRONMENT CANADA
CONFIRMED THAT A THIRD TORNADO
TOUCHED DOWN NEAR THE COMMUNITY
OF CALABOGIE ABOUT 100
KILOMETRES WEST OF OTTAWA.
>>> WE'RE FOLLOWING A VERY TIGHT
RACE IN NEW BRUNSWICK THIS
EVENING.
THE POLLS IN THE PROVINCIAL
ELECTION CLOSED A LITTLE OVER
THREE HOURS AGO.
CBC PROJECTS THAT IT WILL BE A
MINORITY GOVERNMENT BUT WHICH
PARTY WILL FORM IT?
WELL, THE RACE IS JUST TOO CLOSE
TO CALL.
IT IS NECK-AND-NECK BETWEEN
BRYANT GALLANT AND HIGGS.
HERE HOW THE THINGS LOOK RIGHT
NOW... AND THERE'S ONE BIG
STORYLINE TONIGHT, THE THIRD AND
FOURTH PARTIES PICKING UP SEAT.
THE PEOPLE'S ALLIANCE WITH THREE
AND RIGHT NOW THE GREENS WITH
ALSO THREE.
KAYLA HOUNSELL IS JOINING US
LIVE FROM THE LIBERAL PARTY
HEADQUARTERS.
AND, KAYLA, WE HAVE SEEN THE
NUMBERS, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
IN.
>> THAT'S THE BIG QUESTION.
WE KNOW THAT THERE WILL BE A
MINORITY GOVERNMENT.
WE DO NOT KNOW WHO WILL FORM THE
GOVERNMENT.
WE KNOW THAT THE SMALLER PARTIES
COULD END UP PLAYING A VERY
LARGE ROLE HERE IN NEW
BRUNSWICK'S NEXT GOVERNMENT.
WE KNOW THAT GREEN PARTY LEADER
DAVID COOMBS HAS WON HIS SEAT
AND THE LEADER OF THE PEOPLE'S
ALLIANCE PARTY HAS BEEN ELECTED
IN HIS RIDING.
SO WHAT EVERYONE IS WATCHING TO
SEE RIGHT NOW IS HOW MANY MORE
SEATS THESE PARTIES MIGHT EMERGE
WITH.
AND THEN, OF COURSE, WHO MIGHT
HOLD THE BALANCE OF POWER.
WE SAW THIS IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
LAST YEAR WHEN THE GREENS
EMERGED HOLDING THE BALANCE OF
POWER.
THEY TOOK THEIR THREE SEATS AND
SIDED WITH THE N.D.P. TO HAVE AN
ADVANTAGE OVER THE LIBERALS.
AND THEN AS YOU KNOW, IAN, THE
N.D.P. WENT ON TO FORM
GOVERNMENT.
>> Ian: I BET THAT THERE'S EVEN
PEOPLE IN NEW BRUNSWICK TONIGHT
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE
GREENS AND THE PEOPLE'S ALLIANCE
STANDS FOR.
TELL US ABOUT THESE PARTIES.
>> Reporter: RIGHT WELL, THE
GREENS HAVE BECOME KNOWN AS A
ONE-ISSUE PARTY -- THE
ENVIRONMENT.
BUT THE NEW BRUNSWICK GREENS
HAVE CAMPAIGNED ON A WIDE RANGE
OF ISSUES.
THEY HAVE PROMISED TO HIKE THE
MINIMUM WAGE AND ELIMINATE THE
INTEREST ON PROVINCIAL STUDENT
LOANS, TO JUST NAME A COUPLE.
THEY WOULD BE MORE ALIGNED WITH
THE LIBERALS AND THE PEOPLE'S
ALLIANCE PARTY WOULD BE MORE
ALIGNED WITH THE PROGRESSIVE
CONSERVATIVES.
THE PEOPLE'S ALLIANCE REALLY HAS
BRANDED ITSELF AS AN ALTERNATIVE
FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE MAYBE
FRUSTRATED WITH THE SO-CALLED
TRADITIONAL PARTIES.
LANGUAGE IS ALWAYS THE NUMBER
ONE ISSUE WHEN THE PEOPLE'S
ALLIANCE COME TO MIND.
AND THAT'S ALWAYS AN ISSUE HERE
IN CANADA'S ONLY OFFICIALLY
BILINGUAL PROVINCE.
SO THE PEOPLE'S ALLIANCE SAY
THEY'RE NOT AGAINST BILINGUALISM
BUT THEY HAVE CAMPAIGNED ON THE
IDEA THEY WOULD END THE
PROVINCE'S DUAL HEALTH CARE
SYSTEM THAT IS BOTH HEALTH CARE
SYSTEMS IN BOTH OFFICIAL
LANGUAGES.
AND ALSO GET RID OF THE OFFICIAL
LANGUAGES COMMISSIONER.
SO IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE
OVER THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS WHAT
ALLIANCES MIGHT FORM.
HERE'S WHAT PEOPLE'S ALLIANCE
LEADER CHRIS AUSTIN HAD TO SAY
JUST A SHORT TIME AGO...
>> AS I HAVE SAID BEFORE I'M
WILLING TO WORK WITH ANY PARTY
THAT HAS SOME OF THE IDEAS THAT
WE HAVE BEEN PUSHING.
YOU KNOW, AND PART OF BEING A
GOVERNMENT IS COMPROMISE AND
WORKING WITH ALL OTHER PARTIES
AND THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE
COMMITTED TO DO.
>> Reporter: SO A LITTLE VAGUE
THERE, BUT IT WILL BE
INTERESTING TO SEE AGAIN WHAT
ALLIANCES AND WHAT KIND OF
DISCUSSIONS WILL BE HAPPENING IN
THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS AND, IN
FACT, MAY HAVE ALREADY STARTED
HAPPENING.
INTERESTING TO NOTE THAT IT HAS
BEEN MORE THAN 100 YEARS SINCE
TWO OR MORE PARTIES COULD SHIFT
THE BALANCE OF POWER HERE IN NEW
BRUNSWICK, IAN.
>> Ian: THANK YOU.
>> Adrienne: AND GOING TO THE
U.S., BRETT KAVANAUGH IS TAKING
TO PRIMETIME STRONGLY DENYING
THE SEXUAL MISCONDUCT
ALLEGATIONS AGAINST HIM.
>> I DID NOT HAVE SEXUAL
INTERCOURSE OR ANYTHING CLOSE TO
SEXUAL INTERCOURSE OR FOR MANY
YEARS THEREAFTER.
>> Adrienne: THAT IS PART OF
AN EXTRAORDINARY INTERVIEW WITH
BRETT KAVANAUGH AND HIS WIFE
ASHLEY JUST A FEW HOURS AGO AS
KAVANAUGH CONTINUES TO DENY
ALLEGATIONS FROM TWO ACCUSERS.
CHRISTINE BLASEY FORD CAME
FORWARD LAST WEEK TO SAY THAT
KAVANAUGH HELD HER DOWN AT A
HIGH SCHOOL PARTY AND TRIED TO
TAKE HER CLOTHES OFF.
YESTERDAY DEBORAH RAMIREZ SAID
THAT KAVANAUGH EXPOSED HIMSELF
TO HER AT A DORM PARTY WHEN HE
WAS A FRESHMAN AT YALE.
A THIRD WOMAN COULD EMERGE THIS
WEEK, ACCORDING TO LAWYER
MICHAEL AVENATTI.
HE SAYS THAT HIS CLIENT, UNNAMED
SO FAR, HAS A FURTHER ALLEGATION
FROM KAVANAUGH'S TIME IN PREP
SCHOOL.
SO THE STAKES ARE SO HIGH FOR
BOTH SIDES.
IF KAVANAUGH DOES GET A SEAT ON
THE SUPREME COURT HE COULD TILT
THE DECISIONS TO THE RIGHT FOR
AN ENTIRE GENERATION.
AS CBC'S ELLEN MAURO SHOWS US,
BOTH SIDES ARE DIGGING IN FOR
THE COURT THEY WANT.
>> HEY, HEY, HO, HO, KAVANAUGH
HAS GOTTA GO!
>> Reporter: IN THE SHADOW OF
THE SUPREME COURT, DOZENS
MARCHED TODAY WITH ONE
MESSAGE...
>> WE DO NOT SUPPORT PUTTING
SOMEONE ACCUSED OF SEXUAL
ASSAULT AND SEXUAL MISCONDUCT ON
THE SUPREME COURT TO DECIDE WHAT
HAPPENS TO OUR LIVES.
>> Reporter: PAGE COROYDER, ON
A HUNGER STRIKE SINCE FRIDAY
SAYS SHE WILL NOT EAT UNTIL
CHRISTINE BLASEY FORD TESTIFIES
ON THURSDAY OR BRETT KAVANAUGH
WITHDRAWS.
>> FOR THOSE WHO ARE ON THE
JUDICIARY COMMITTEE I THINK THAT
IT'S PURELY POLITICS.
AS LONG AS THEY THINK THEY CAN
GET AWAY WITH IT POLITICALLY
THEY WANT TO PUT HIM ON THE
BENCH.
>> WE SAY...
>> Reporter: BUT THE PASSION
FROM KAVANAUGH'S DETRACTORS ARE
MATCHED BY HIS REPUBLICAN
BACKERS.
THEY'RE CASTING DOUBT ON THE
ALLEGATIONS THEMSELVES AND
ACCUSING THE DEMOCRATS
OF A SMEAR CAMPAIGN.
>> THE SENATE DEMOCRATS AND
THEIR ALLIES ARE TRYING TO
DESTROY A MAN'S PERSONAL AND
PROFESSIONAL LIFE ON THE BASIS
OF DECADES OLD ALLEGATIONS THAT
ARE UNSUBSTANTIATED AND
UNCORROBORATED.
>> MR. PRESIDENT, DO YOU STILL
SUPPORT JUDGE KAVANAGH?
>> Reporter: THE PRESIDENT TOO
IS STANDING BY HIS MAN.
>> President Donald Trump:
PEOPLE THAT COME OUT OF THE
WOODWORK FROM 36 YEARS AGO AND
30 YEARS AGO AND NEVER MENTIONED
IT, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT
HAPPENED?
IN MY OPINION IT'S TOTALLY
POLITICAL.
>> Reporter: AND TOTALLY A
LIE, SAYS KAVANAGH, SPEAKING IN
THAT FOX NEWS INTERVIEW, A RARE
P.R. MOVE FOR A SUPREME COURT
NOMINEE.
>> I AM NOT QUESTIONING AND HAVE
NOT QUESTIONED THAT PERHAPS
DR. FORD AT SOME POINT IN HER
LIFE WAS SEXUALLY ASSAULTED BY
SOMEONE IN SOME PLACE.
BUT WHAT I KNOW IS THAT I'VE
NEVER SEXUALLY ASSAULTED ANYONE.
>> WE BELIEVE DEBORAH RAMIREZ!
>> Reporter: AS THE TENSIONS
RISE ON BOTH SIDES THERE'S STILL
TWO WHOLE DAYS BEFORE FORD AND
KAVANAUGH ARE SET TO TESTIFY ON
CAPITOL HILL, AN ETERNITY IN
D.C.
ELLEN MAURO, CBC NEWS,
WASHINGTON.
>> Adrienne: THERE'S ANOTHER
WASHINGTON DRAMA THAT WILL BE
STEALING HEADLINES THIS
THURSDAY.
THAT'S WHEN ROD ROSENSTEIN MEETS
WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP.
THE U.S. DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL
STILL HAS A JOB BUT POSSIBLY NOT
FOR LONG.
EARLIER TODAY A FLURRY OF NEWS
REPORTS SUGGESTED THAT HE WAS
OFFERING TO RESIGN OR WAS
EXPECTING TO BE FIRED.
AND AS PAUL HUNTER EXPLAINS THE
IMPLICATIONS OF HIS DEPARTURE
ARE HUGE.
BECAUSE ROSENSTEIN, AFTER ALL,
IS THE
JUSTICE OFFICIAL OVERSEEING THAT
RUSSIA INVESTIGATION.
>> MR. ROSENSTEIN...
>> Reporter: TONIGHT HE'S
STILL IN HIS JOB.
>> MR. ROSENSTEIN, WILL YOU
RESIGN?
>> Reporter: BUT DONALD
TRUMP'S DEPUT DEN
ATTORNEY GENERAL IS SURELY
WONDERING HOW MUCH LONGER CAN IT
LAST.
IN AFTER EVER ESCALATING CRISIS
THAT HAS GRIPPED THE TRUMP WHITE
HOUSE ALMOST FROM THE OUTSET.
ROSENSTEIN IS A KEY PLAYER IN
THE RUSSIA INVESTIGATION.
SOMETHING THAT TRUMP DERIDES AS
A POLITICAL WITCH HUNT.
BOB MUELLER, WHO LEADS THE
INVESTIGATION, ANSWERS TO
ROSENSTEIN, WHO IN TURN HAS
FIRMLY STOOD BY MUELLER
THROUGHOUT.
>> HAVE YOU SEEN ANY EVIDENCE OF
GOOD CAUSE FOR FIRING THE
SPECIAL COUNSEL MUELLER?
>> NO, I HAVE NOT.
>> Reporter: BUT LAST WEEK
"THE NEW YORK TIMES" DROPPED A
STUNNER, SAYING THAT ROSENSTEIN
ONCE PROPOSED SECRETLY BUILDING
TRUMP IN THE WHITE HOUSE,
BUILDING A CASE TO HAVE HIM
REMOVED FROM OFFICE, SOMETHING
THAT ROSENSTEIN DENIES.
>> President Donald Trump: I'M
MEETING WITH ROD
ROSENSTEIN ON THURSDAY WHEN I
GET BACK...
>> Reporter: TODAY TRUMP ENDED
THE SPECULATION THAT HE WAS
ABOUT TO FIRE ROSENSTEIN OR THAT
HE
HAD ALREADY ACCEPTED HIS
RESIGNATION, SAYING THAT THE TWO
HAD AN EXTENDED PHONE
CONVERSATION TODAY AND THEY'LL
SIT DOWN FACE-TO-FACE LATER THIS
WEEK.
>> President Donald Trump: AND
WE'LL BE DETERMINING WHAT'S
GOING ON.
WE WANT TO HAVE TRANSPARENCY.
WE WANT TO HAVE OPENNESS.
AND I LOOK FORWARD TO MEETING
WITH ROD AT THAT TIME.
>> Reporter: WHAT TRUMP DOES
NEXT REPRESENTS A HIGH-STAKES
QUANDARY.
REPLACING ROSENSTEIN WITH
SOMEONE WHO IN TURN WOULD GET
RID OF MUELLER MAY SEEM
APPEALING BUT THE OPTICS WITH
THOSE MIDTERM ELECTIONS LOOMING
COULD BE DISASTROUS.
DEMOCRATS SAY THAT IT SUGGESTS
OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE.
EVEN SOME REPUBLICANS ADVISE,
DON'T EVEN GO THERE.
>> WELL, I THINK THAT IF HE DID
SOMETHING LIKE THAT IT WOULD
CAUSE A FUROR THAT I DON'T THINK
THAT WE NEED RIGHT NOW.
>> Reporter: TONIGHT OTHER
LAWMAKERS ARE UNDERLINING THAT
AND A DEMOCRATIC SENATOR
SUGGESTING THAT EVEN THE THREAT
OF TRUMP GETTING RID OF
ROSENSTEIN AMOUNTS TO BULLYING
BOB MUELLER AND IT REPRESENTS A
DIRECT THREAT TO
U.S. DEMOCRACY.
THE SENATOR THEN CALLED ON THE
REPUBLICANS TO STAND UP TO TRUMP
AND TO PUSH BACK.
ADRIENNE?
>> Adrienne: OKAY, PAUL,
CLEARLY A FAIR AMOUNT OF PALACE
INTRIGUE GOING ON HERE.
WHAT ARE WE LEARNING ABOUT WHAT
WAS HAPPENING BEHIND THE SCENES?
>> Reporter: THE CONFUSION AND
THE UNCERTAINTY HUNG OVER ALL OF
IT ALL WEEKEND.
"THE NEW YORK TIMES" TONIGHT
REPORTS THAT WHEN ROSENSTEIN
WENT TO THE WHITE HOUSE FOR
MEETINGS TODAY HE WAS CERTAIN
THAT HE WAS SET TO BE FIRED
THE MINUTE THAT HE WALKED IN THE
DOOR.
SO MUCH SO THAT HIS AIDES WERE
EVEN WRITING UP A PRESS RELEASE.
AND SO SAYS "THE TIMES" THAT IS
AFTER A WEEKEND OF BACK AND
FORTH BETWEEN ROSENSTEIN AND THE
WHITE HOUSE IN WHICH THE WHITE
HOUSE WAS EVIDENTLY TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT WHETHER ROSENSTEIN
WAS EVEN LEGALLY ALLOWED TO
RESIGN IF THE PRESIDENT WASN'T
THERE IN PERSON.
NO ONE SEEMED TO KNOW.
AND KEEP IN MIND THAT ALL OF
THAT WAS HAPPENING JUST AS THOSE
NEW ALLEGATIONS ABOUT BRETT
KAVANAUGH WERE STARTING TO COME
OUT.
SHORT ANSWER -- CHAOS REINED IN
THAT PLACE.
>> Adrienne: IT'S GETTING HARD
TO KEEP UP WITH THE DRAMA.
CBC'S PAUL HUNTER IN WASHINGTON.
>>> NOW TO SOME OF THE OTHER
DEVELOPING STORIES THAT WE'RE
WATCHING TONIGHT, INCLUDING
JUSTIN TRUDEAU'S APPEARANCE AT
THE UNITED NATIONS.
>> Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau: WE'LL CONTINUE TO
SPEAK UP FOR THE REFUGEES OF
ROHINGYA, FOR THE YAZIDIS OF
NORTHERN IRAQ, AND FOR THE
PEOPLE OF VENEZUELA.
>> Adrienne: THE PRIME
MINISTER KICKED OFF HIS VISIT TO
THE U.N. WITH A SPEECH THAT WAS
REALLY CHAMPIONING CANADA'S
COMMITMENT TO DEMOCRACY AND
HUMAN RIGHTS.
TRUDEAU IS CAMPAIGNING TO REGAIN
A SEAT ON THE SECURITY COUNCIL
IN 2021.
>>> THERE THEY ARE, PROTESTERS
AND SUPPORTERS WAITING FOR BILL
COSBY ON DAY ONE OF HIS
SENTENCING HEARING.
THE 81-YEAR-OLD COMEDIAN WAS
CONVICTED IN APRIL OF SEXUALLY
ASSAULTING CANADIAN ANDREA
CONSTAND.
HE'S NOW FACING A MAXIMUM 10
YEARS IN PRISON AND COULD BE
DECLARED A SEXUALLY VIOLENT
PREDATOR.
THE JUDGE IS EXPECTED TO MAKE A
DECISION ON THAT TOMORROW.
>> >> Ian: AHEAD, THEY WERE TOLD
THAT IT COULD TAKE MONTHS TO
BRING ELECTRICITY AFTER
HURRICANE MARIA.
>> Adrienne: AND LATER, CAN A
COMPUTER PREDICT WHEN AND WHERE
AND WHO WILL COMMIT A CRIME?
WE'LL TAKE AN IN-DEPTH LOOK AT A
CONTROVERSIAL TECHNOLOGY USED BY
THE LAPD.
>> Ian: FIRST THOUGH SHE
SURVIVED A SERIAL KILLER.
A FORMER PATIENT OF ELIZABETH
WETTLAUFER SHARES HER PAINFUL
STORY.
>> I NO LONGER KNOW WHO I AM
BECAUSE ELIZABETH WETTLAUFER
CONSUMES MY LIFE.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SHE WAS
THAT DETERMINED TO KILL ME.
>> Ian: IT'S BEEN MORE THAN A
YEAR SINCE NURSE ELIZABETH
WETTLAUFER PLEADED GUILTY TO
MURDERING EIGHT OF HER PATIENTS
AND HARMING SIX OTHERS.
HOW HER CRIMES WENT UNNOTICED
FOR SO LONG HAS BEEN THE FOCUS
OF A PUBLIC INQUIRY IN ONTARIO.
IN THIS FINAL WEEK THE ONE
SURVIVING VICTIM THAT WE KNOW OF
SPOKE PUBLICLY FOR THE FIRST
TIME.
JOHN LANCASTER HAS BEVERLY
BERTRAM'S STORY.
>> Reporter: BY THE TIME THAT
THE NURSE SET HER SIGHTS ON
BEVERLY BERTRAM, SHE WAS THE
MOST WEAK OR THE POST VULNERABLE
VULNERABLE.
RELYING ON WETTLAUFER FOR
HOMECARE UNTIL ONE OF THOSE
VISITS SHOO SLIPPED INTO AN
INSULIN OVERDOSE.
>> I NO LONGER KNOW WHO I AM
BECAUSE ELIZABETH WETTLAUFER
CONSUMES MY LIFE.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SHE WAS
BOUND, BENT AND DETERMINED TO
KILL ME.
>> Reporter: ON TOP OF THE
EIGHT PATIENTS THAT WETTLAUFER
DID KILL SHE ALSO TRIED TO KILL
BERTRAM AND OTHERS.
BERTRAM IS THE ONLY ONE STILL
ALIVE TO TALK ABOUT IT.
>> I GET "OH, SHE'S IN JAIL,
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
IT'S OVER."
IT'S NOT OVER.
WE AS THE VICTIMS ARE NOT WEAK,
WE NEED CARE.
AND THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE
DON'T MATTER ANYMORE.
>> Reporter: THE 70-YEAR-OLD
STUNNED THE SILENT COURTROOM,
PITYING THE VERY WOMAN WHO TRIED
TO KILL HER.
>> ELIZABETH WETTLAUFER DIDN'T
GET RESPECT.
I'M NOT CONDONING ANYTHING THAT
SHE DID, BUT IF RESPECT HAD BEEN
GIVEN TO HER AS A PERSON, WHAT
HAPPENED WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED.
SHE CRIED FOR HELP MANY TIMES
AND NONE WAS GIVEN.
>> Reporter: OUTSIDE OF THE
COURT HER OWN LAWYER IS EQUALLY
HUMBLED.
>> WE HAVE HEARD A LOT OF
NEGATIVE THINGS IN THERE OVER
THE PAST FOUR MONTHS AND THAT
WAS SUCH A POSITIVE
LIFE-AFFIRMING COMMENT FROM
SOMEONE WHO HAS EVERY REASON IN
THE WORLD TO BE ANGRY AND
BITTER.
AND IT JUST WASN'T THERE.
>> Reporter: BERTRAM HINTED
THAT HER OWN HEALTH IS FAILING,
TESTIFYING SOMEWHAT RELUCTANTLY
FOR THOSE WHO CAN NO LONGER BE
HEARD.
>> I JUST FIND IT VERY ANNOYING
THAT MY LIFE IS GOING TO END IN
THIS MANNER.
I'M 70 NOW, AND I DESERVE
BETTER.
>> Reporter: AFTER SPEAKING
PUBLICLY FOR THE FIRST TIME
BERTRAM RETURNED HOME QUIETLY,
PERHAPS HER BURDEN SOMEWHAT
LIFTED.
JOHN LANCASTER, CBC NEWS,
ST. THOMAS, ONTARIO.
>> Ian: THE FAMILIES OF SOME OF
WETTLAUFER'S OTHER VICTIMS SPOKE
TODAY AS WELL.
HERE'S SOME OF THAT HEART
WRENCHING TESTIMONY...
>> I DON'T HAVE MY FATHER
ANYMORE.
I MISS HIM, I REALLY, I REALLY
MISS HIM A LOT.
EVERY GODDAMNED DAY.
HE WAS THE AIR I BREATHE, YOU
KNOW, HE WAS EVERY... HE'D BE
HERE TODAY IF NOT FOR THE
GODDAMNED INCOMPETENCE OF
PEOPLE.
JUST INKOCH TENSE, GROSS
INCOMPETENCE.
WORRIED ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE WOULD
SAY ABOUT THEM, WORRIED
ABOUT GETTING IN TROUBLE AND HOW
MUCH IT WOULD COST.
DOES MY FATHER'S LIFE HAVE A
COST, COMMISSIONER?
>> SINCE I WORK AT A LONG TERM
CARE, I CAN'T GO TO WORK WITHOUT
BEING OVERWHELMED WITH THE
THOUGHTS OF MY DAD AND WHAT
EVENTS LED UP TO HIS SENSELESS
DEATH.
I GRIEVE FOR MY MOTHER AS WELL
FOR SHE PASSED AWAY ONLY DAYS
AFTER HEARING OF THE DETAILS OF
HER HUSBAND'S DEATH IN A
FACILITY THAT SHE TRUSTED.
THE LOVE OF HER LIFE.
THEY WERE MARRIED FOR OVER 60
YEARS.
>> Ian: THE COMMISSION IS NOW
HEARING CLOSING SUBMISSIONS FROM
14 ADDITIONAL GROUPS AND
ORGINISATIONS.
THAT WILL TAKE THE INQUIRY TO
THE END OF THE WEEK.
FROM THERE JUSTICE EILEEN
GILLESE HAS TWO
YEARS TO MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS TO
IMPROVE THE SYSTEMIC PROBLEMS.
BUT THESE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE
NOT BINDING, THE PROVINCE IS NOT
REQUIRED TO MAKE ANY SUGGESTED
CHANGES.
>> Adrienne: UP NEXT ON "THE
NATIONAL"... THE LAPD'S
CONTROVERSIAL NEW CRIME-FIGHTING
TECHNIQUE.
WE'LL TAKE AN IN-DEPTH LOOK AT
HOW IT'S USING AN ALGORITHM, IS
IT PREDICTIVE POLICING OR JUST
PROFILING?
>> Reporter: WHAT EFFECT DO
YOU THINK THAT IT WOULD HAVE FOR
YOU TO BE PUT ON SOMETHING LIKE
A FREQUENT OFFENDER LIST?
>> I MEAN, MARGINALIZATION.
IT WOULD DISCOURAGE ME FROM
THINKING ANYTHING HIGHER OF
MYSELF.
(*)
(*)
>> IT DOES ALL THE WORK FOR US.
>> WE NEED TO BE WARY OF THE
QUANTIFIED SURVEILLANCE OF
CERTAIN POPULATIONS.
>> IS THIS POLICING?
>> I THINK THAT IT'S JUST A
CONTINUATION AND AN EVOLUTION OF
RACIAL PROFILING.
>> Adrienne: ALL IT TAKES IS A
COMPUTER ALGORITHM AND POLICE
SAY THEY CAN PREDICT WHERE CRIME
WILL HAPPEN AND WHO WILL COMMIT
IT.
IT'S CALLED "PREDICTIVE
POLICING" AND THE LOS ANGELES
POLICE DEPARTMENT SAYS THAT IT
HELPS IT TO PREVENT CRIME.
BUT AS KIM BRUNHUBER TELLS US,
THE COMMUNITY IS PRETTY WORRIED
THE TECHNOLOGY JUST TURNS
EVERYONE INTO A SUSPECT.
>> Reporter: BEFORE THE
MANHUNT STARTS...
>> WHERE YOU AT?
>> Reporter: BEFORE THE GUNS
ARE EVEN LOADED... THIS IS HOW
IT BEGINS, WITH ONE OF THE MOST
STATE-OF-THE-ART POLICE SYSTEMS
THAT ORIGINATES HERE.
WITH A STACK OF PAPER AND A
GROUP OF SCREENS.
IT'S THE DATA THAT MATTERS AND
HOW IT'S CRUNCHED BY A
MULTIMILLION DOLLAR PROGRAMME TO
PREDICT CRIME.
ROLL CALL IN ALMOST EVERY POLICE
PRECINCT USUALLY SOUNDS LIKE
THIS...
>> A REMINDER FOR EVERYONE TO
FIND THE DOMINANT AGGRESSOR FOR
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
>> Reporter: BUT HERE IN ONE
OF THE BUSIEST POLICE STATIONS
IN DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES YOU WILL
ALSO HEAR SOMETHING ELSE.
>> YOU GUYS HAVE PALANTIR.
>> Reporter: THE POLICING
COMPUTER PROGRAMME.
ZOOM IN ON THE DESK AND YOU CAN
SEE WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT.
THOSE LITTLE BOXES, THEY SHOW
EXACTLY WHERE THE COMPUTER
PREDICTS CRIMES WILL HAPPEN IN
THE FUTURE.
ZONES THAT WERE DRAWN UP, NOT BY
A PERSON, BUT BY AN ALGORITHM.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS...
>> THE DATA THAT IT HAS FOR OUR
PARTICULAR DEVELOP, IN 10 BOXES
WE DECIDED...
>> Reporter: CAPTAIN JACK
KNOLTE RUNS THE DIVISION.
CAN YOU DIAL IN AND SHOW US?
>> ABSOLUTELY.
SO THIS RIGHT HERE IS A VIEW ON
THE COMPUTER OF WHAT IS SENT TO
OUR
OFFICERS EVERY MORNING ABOUT
1:30 a.m..
THE OFFICERS ARE GIVEN THIS
PAPER PRINTOUT AND THE BOXES ARE
50 SQUARE FEET SO THEY ARE VERY
SMALL.
THE BEAUTY IS THAT WE DON'T HAVE
TO HAVE, YOU KNOW, SOMEBODY
WORKING CRIME ANALYSIS AND
LOOKING AT ALL OF THE TRENDS AND
READING ALL OF REPORTS AND THE
DEVELOPING PROFILES.
IT'S AUTOMATICALLY GIVEN TO US.
>> SO ANYONE PUT THE INFORMATION
IN...
>> Reporter: IT'S A MACHINE
LEARNING ALGORITHM THAT ANALYSES
SEVERAL YEARS' WORTH OF CRIME
REPORTS LIKE THESE.
THE PRINCIPLE?
CRIME ISN'T RANDOM.
IT FAMILIARS A PATTERN.
AND IF
MAP IS GOOD ENOUGH... YOU CAN BE
YOUR
THERE WHEN CRIME HAPPENS.
>> I'M LIKE TWO BLOCKS OUT.
>> Reporter: OR BETTER YET,
BEFORE.
>> SHOULD BE ON THE OTHER SIDE
OF THIS INTERSECTION HERE.
>> Reporter: ON THIS SHIFT WE
WILL SPEND TIME IN OR TOUCH AS
THE OFFICERS SAY SEVERAL OF THE
DIVISION 10PREDPOL BOXES WITH
SERGEANT
DAVE RICH.
WE HAVE REACHED THE FIRST BOX, A
RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBOURHOOD IN THE
MIDDLE OF DOWNTOWN L.A.
THIS LOOKS LIKE ANY OTHER
NEIGHBOURHOOD.
>> CORRECT.
SO THIS AREA ACROSS THE STREET
FROM US RIGHT HERE HAS BEEN
IDENTIFIED AS A PROBLEM AREA.
>> Reporter: THE DIVISION ONLY
USES THE PREDPOL PROPERTY CRIME
REPORT AND
ACCORDING TO TODAY'S REPORT
THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE THAT
SOMEONE WILL TRY TO STEAL
SOMETHING SOMEWHERE AROUND HERE
SOME TIME SOON.
>> YOU'RE DRIVING THROUGH AREAS
WHERE IT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS
PROBLEMATIC.
SOMETIMES YOU CAN JUST GET
FLAGGED DOWN AND YOU CAN TURN A
CORNER AND YOU CAN ROLL RIGHT
INTO A
ROBBERY IN PROGRESS OR THERE
COULD BE SOME SORT OF AN
ALTERCATION.
>> SO WHAT ARE WE WORKING ON?
>> HOW LONG...
>> Reporter: THE LAW
ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES YOU CAN SEE
THE APPEAL.
IT MAKES SENSE TO DEPLOY
RESOURCES WHERE THEY'RE THE MOST
LIKELY TO DO THE MOST GOOD.
IS THERE ANY EVIDENCE THAT THIS
ACTUALLY WORKS?
>> SO THAT'S ACTUALLY A HARDER
QUESTION THAN YOU WOULD THINK.
>> Reporter: VANCOUVER-BORN
SOCIOLOGIST SARAH BRAIN SPENT
TWO YEARS HERE INSIDE OF THE
LAPD HEADQUARTERS STUDYING THE
USE OF PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS.
>> I THINK THAT IT'S TOO EARLY
TO SAY IF IT LEADS TO MORE
EFFECTIVE POLICING BUT IT HAS
THE POTENTIAL TO, YES.
BECAUSE THERE'S THE EFFICIENCY
ASPENT OF IT WHERE IF YOU'RE
ALLOCATING RESOURCES TO WHERE
CRIME IS ACTUALLY OCCURRING
RATHER THAN SORT OF BIASED
PERCEPTIONS OF WHERE CRIME MIGHT
BE OCCURRING,
THAT'S A GOOD THING.
>> Reporter: BUT THOSE WHO
WORRY MOST ABOUT THOSE BIASED
PERCEPTIONS WONDER, CAN YOU
TRUST THE ALGORITHM IF YOU DON'T
TRUST THE POLICE?
BECAUSE THERE'S ANOTHER EVEN
MORE CONTROVERSIAL COMPONENT TO
PREDICTIVE POLICING.
ONE THAT CAN BE USED TO PREDICT
NOT ONLY WHERE CRIMES WILL BE
COMMITTED BUT ALSO BY WHOM,
BASED ON A SCORING SYSTEM.
YOU GET FIVE POINTS IF YOU'RE IN
A GANG, ON PAROLE, ON PROBATION.
BEEN ARRESTED WITH A HANDGUN OR
A VIOLENT CRIME.
AND ONE POINT FOR EVERY TIME
THAT YOU HAVE BEEN STOPPED BY
THE POLICE IN THE LAST TWO
YEARS.
EVERY THREE MONTHS THE COMPUTER
SPITS OUT A LIST OF ABOUT 20
PEOPLE, THE CHRONIC OFFENDER
MASTER LIST.
EVERYONE ON THAT LIST IS SENT
THIS LETTER FROM THE CHIEF OF
THE LAPD URGING THEM TO CHANGE
THEIR WAYS.
WITH THE LETTER COMES A LIST OF
COMMUNITY SERVICE PROVIDERS AND
AT THE END A FINAL WISH FROM THE
CHIEF.
GOOD LUCK.
>> WE OFFER THOSE RESOURCES TO
THOSE FOLKS AND GIVE THEM A WAY
OUT.
>> Reporter: OFFICERS ARE
ASSIGNED TO CHECK IN
ON THESE CHRONIC OFFENDERS AND
TAKE ANY LEGAL OPPORTUNITY TO
STOP THEM.
WE SHARED A RECENT BULLETIN WITH
SARAH BRAIN.
>> IF INDIVIDUALS HAVE THESE
CERTAIN POINT VALUES ALREADY AND
THEN OFFICERS ARE ENCOURAGED
WHEN THEY'RE OUT ON PATROL TO GO
OUT AND STOP AND TALK TO THESE
INDIVIDUALS, TO CONTINUE
GATHERING INTELLIGENCE AND
FURTHER INCREASE THEIR POINT
SCORE, THAT'S JUSTIFYING THEIR
CONTINUED STOPPING DAY AFTER
DAY.
AND IT ESSENTIALLY TURNS INTO
THIS CYCLE WHERE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE
TO ESCAPE.
>> Reporter: THAT'S WHY IN
SOME COMMUNITIES THERE'S A
GROWING FEAR.
IF THE INFORMATION FED INTO THE
COMPUTER MODELS IS BIASED, THEN
THE POLICE DATA COULD BECOME
ALMOST AS DANGEROUS AS THEIR
GUNS.
WALDWIN VILLAGE, BETTER KNOWN
AS "THE JUNGLE."
ACCORDING TO LAPD STATISTICS
IT'S ONE OF THE MOST
CRIME-RIDDEN AREAS IN THE CITY.
FOR YEARS TO HELP TO CRACK DOWN
ON GANGS THE LAPD HAS RELIED ON
THE OFFICIAL LISTS OF KNOWN
AND SUSPECTED GANG MEMBERS.
YOU'RE ON THAT LIST?
>> YES.
>> Reporter: SO WHAT EFFECT DO
YOU THINK THAT IT WOULD HAVE FOR
YOU TO BE PUT ON SOMETHING LIKE
A FREQUENT OFFENDER LIST?
>> I MEAN, MARGINALIZATION.
IT WOULD DISCOURAGE ME FROM
THINKING ANYTHING HIGHER OF
MYSELF.
>> Reporter: IN THE JUNGLE WE
MET UP WITH SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO
ENDED UP ON THOSE GANG LISTS
EVEN THOUGH THEY SAY THEY
WEREN'T OR HAVE EVER BEEN GANG
MEMBERS, LIKE ABTD KNEE.
GROWING UP HE WONDERED WHY
POLICE WOULD STOP HIM IF THEY
SAW HIM ON THE STREETS.
>> ONE TIME THEY PUT ME IN THE
BACK OF A POLICE CAR AND THEY
ARE RUNNING MY NAME IN THEIR
LITTLE COMPUTER IN THE CAR, I AM
WATCHING THEM AS THEY'RE DOING
IT.
AND MY FILE COMES UP AND I SEEN
IT SAID, GANG ASSOCIATE, TAGGING
CREW, AFFILIATE OR SOMETHING
LIKE THAT.
AND I WAS LIKE, WOW, SO THIS IS
WHY THEY'RE ALWAYS HARASSING ME
BECAUSE THEY THINK THAT I'M PART
OF A GANG.
>> Reporter: NOW SOME
COMMUNITY GROUPS ARE FIGHTING
BACK.
>> IT'S WHEN YOU GET STOPPED BY
AN OFFICER THAT HE TAKES DOWN
YOUR NAME AND WHAT YOU LOOK
LIKE...
>> Reporter: BASED IN AN AREA
CALLED SKID ROW, TO STOP THE
LAPD SPYING CO ALITIONZ WAS
FOUNDED TO OPPOSE
INTELLIGENCE GATHERING.
>> WHO IS THE TARGET?
>> WE ARE.
>> Reporter: NOW VOLUNTEER
JAMIE GARCIA IS TRYING TO WARN
THE LOCAL COMMUNITY ABOUT THE
DANGERS OF PREDICTIVE POLICING.
>> BY DRIVING ALGORITHMS THAT
THE DAY IS SOMEHOW BECOMING MORE
EFFICIENT AND FAIR.
AND I THINK THAT IS REALLY
PROBLEMATIC BECAUSE IT'S
TRYING TO MASK POLICING HOW IT'S
ALWAYS HISTORICALLY BEEN WHICH
IS IMPACTING THE BLACK AND THE
BROWN COMMUNITIES.
>> Reporter: LOOK CLOSELY AT
THIS LIST.
ALMOST EVERYONE ON IT IS A
MINORITY.
>> THE SUSPECTS WILL PROBABLY
LOOK LIKE THE POPULATION.
IF YOU TAKE A POSITION THAT
MINORITIES ARE PARANOID AND THAT
PREDPOL IS GOING TO PUT A BUNCH
OF OFFICERS
IN ONE AREA IN A BOX, YOU KNOW,
I WOULD ARGUE THAT'S PART OF
WHAT WE SHOULD DO.
WE HAVE SOME INFORMATION THAT WE
THINK THAT PLACES ARE A RISK, WE
SHOULD GO THERE.
BUT WE SHOULDN'T JUST USE
ENFORCEMENT AND SUPPRESSION.
>> ESSENTIALLY RIGHT NOW ALL OF
THE NEW SURVEILLANCE TECHNOLOGY
IS IN TOOLS THAT CAN COLLECT
DATA ON ALL OF US, AND NOT JUST
PEOPLE WITH DIRECT POLICE
CONTACT.
THAT TECHNOLOGY IS MOVING SO
MUCH FASTER THAN THE LAWS AND
REGULATIONS TO GOVERN THAT
ACTIVITY.
AND SO AS SUCH IT'S KIND OF THIS
LEGAL AND REGULATORY WILD WEST.
>> Reporter: DO YOU THINK THAT
EVENTUALEE WE'LL
SEE THESE TYPES OF TOOLS TO BE
USED IN CANADA?
>> I THINK THAT WE WILL, BUT I
THINK THAT IN THIS INSTANCE
ACTUALLY CANADA BEING A LITTLE
BIT BEHIND THE U.S. IN CERTAIN
WAYS MIGHT BE A BENEFIT RATHER
THAN A DRAWBACK.
>> Reporter: BACK ON THE BEAT
YET ANOTHER PREDPOL BOX, AN
ARREST
FOR ROBBERY.
>> BROKE INTO THE APARTMENT
COMPLEX...
>> Reporter: SUPPORTERS OF
PREDICTIVE POLICING HOPE THAT
ONE DAY IT WILL PREVENT THEFTS
LIKE THIS.
>> IT'S ALL FOR NOTHING.
EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU HAVE BEEN
IN JAIL...
>> Reporter: AND EVENTUALLY WE
MIGHT ALL HAVE OUR OWN POLICE
FILE, OUR OWN SCORE.
KIM BRUNHUBER, CBC NEWS, LOS
ANGELES.
>> Adrienne: NOW CANADIAN
POLICE ARE AWARE OF THE TOOLS
BEING USED BY THE U.S. BECAUSE
POLICE SHARE BEST PRACTICES
ACROSS THE BORDER ALL THE TIME.
THE VANCOUVER POLICE ARE PERHAPS
CLOSEST TO WHAT THE LAPD ARE
USING.
VANCOUVER USES THE TECHNOLOGY TO
PREDICT PROPERTY CRIMES.
IN SASKATOON POLICE USE SIMILAR
ALGORITHMS TO IDENTIFY YOUTH AT
RISK, HOPING THAT BY
IDENTIFYING THEM AND HELPING THE
YOUNG PEOPLE WOULD BE A
DIFFERENT KIND OF CRIME
PREVENTION.
NO ONE IN CANADA IS DOING
ANYTHING TO THE SAME EXTENT AS
L.A. BUT THAT COULD BE COMING.
>> Ian: UP NEXT ON "THE
NATIONAL"... IOANNA ROUMELIOTIS
TAKES US BACK TO PUERTO RICO TO
A SMALL TOWN WHERE PEOPLE TOOK
MATTERS INTO THEIR OWN HANDS IN
THE WAKE OF HURRICANE MARIA.
(*)
>> THE MAN SAID IF YOU GUYS HELP
THEM OUT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE IT
FIXED IN TWO DAYS.
WOW, LET'S GO.
WHAT DO WE GOTTA DO?
WE WILL HAVE A MEETING IN 15
MINUTES WITH THE WHOLE
NEIGHBOURHOOD, THE WHOLE
COMMUNITY.
>> Adrienne: FIRST THOUGH A
PREVIEW OF A STORY YOU'LL SEE
HERE TOMORROW NIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL," DIANA SWAIN GIVES US
A RARE INSIDE LOOK AT A SPECIAL
COURT IN NOVA SCOTIA.
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS...
>> ALL RISE.
>> Reporter: WHAT HAPPENS IN
THIS ROOM CARRIES THE SAME LEGAL
WEIGHT AS A REGULAR COURT, BUT
THAT'S ABOUT WHERE THE
SIMILARITY ENDS.
>> GOOD AFTERNOON.
>> Reporter: YOU DON'T
TYPICALLY SEE ARTWORK ON THE
WALLS DONATED BY THOSE WHO HAVE
APPEARED IN COURT.
AND NOTE THAT SLOGAN OVER THE
JUDGE'S HEAD, LETTING PEOPLE
KNOW THAT JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE
A PAST DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU
HAVE NO FUTURE.
>> WE HAVE NOT DONE A
PARTICULARLY GREAT JOB IN THE
TRADITIONAL SYSTEM WITH SOME
FOLKS THAT HAVE SEVERE MENTAL
ILLNESS.
THEY FIND THEMSELVES RETURNING
TO THE REGULAR COURT MORE OFTEN,
NOT COMING TO COURT MORE OFTEN,
BUT BEING ARRESTED MORE OFTEN
AND BEING IN JAIL MORE OFTEN.

>> Adrienne: TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL," THE RCMP'S FIRST
FEMALE COMMISSIONER HAS BEEN
NAMED ONE OF TWO NEW SENATORS.
BEVERLY BUSSON WILL REPRESENT
B.C. IN THE
RED CHAMBER.
SHE JOINED THE FORCE IN THE MID
1970s AND ROSE THROUGH THE
RANKS, EVENTUALLY BECOMING THE
TOP MOUNTIE IN 2006.
ALSO NAMED TO THE UPPER HOUSE,
MARTY KLYNE, A PROMINENT
SASKATCHEWAN BUSINESSMAN OF CREE
MÉTIS HERITAGE.
>>> AND THE SEARCH FOR TWO
FISHERMEN OFF THE WEST COAST OF
P.E.I. HAS COME TO A TRAGIC
CONCLUSION.
THE BODY OF MAU GETSON WAS FOUND
ON THE BEACH ABOUT 45 KILOMETRES
WHERE THE FISHING VESSEL WENT
DOWN LAST TUESDAY.
THE BODY OF THE SHIP'S CAPTAIN,
GLEN DesROCHES, WAS RECOVER
YESTERDAY MORNING.
ED
THE PAIR WORKED TOGETHER FOR
ABOUT 10 YEARS.
THE THIRD CREW MEMBER WAS ABLE
TO SWIM TO SAFETY AFTER THE
ACCIDENT.
>> Ian: TO PUERTO RICO NOW WHERE
THE ISLAND IS STILL REBUILDING
ONE YEAR AFTER HURRICANE MARIA
HIT.
THE DESTRUCTIVE STORM LEFT
MILLIONS IN THE DARK FOR MONTHS,
SOME FOR ALMOST A YEAR.
AND REPAIRING THE ALREADY
OUTDATED POWER GRID WAS NO EASY
TASK.
BUT AS IOANNA ROUMELIOTIS
DISCOVERED, ONE SMALL COMMUNITY
REFUSED TO WAIT ON OFFICIALS TO
RESTORE ELECTRICITY.
INSTEAD THEY DECIDED TO TAKE
POWER INTO THEIR OWN HANDS.
>> THE TREES, THEY ARE HIGH SO
WE JUST CHOP THEM DOWN.
>> Reporter: CARLO SANTIAGO
WAS A MAN WITH A MACHETE AND A
MISSION AND HE WASN'T THE ONLY
ONE.
>> WE JUST CHOP DOWN ALL OF THE
TREES AND MAKE A PATH.
SORT OF A ROAD.
SO WE COULD GO BACK AND FORTH
AND GET THE WIRES PULLED OUT AND
GET THE WIRES INSTALLED AGAIN.
>> Reporter: HOW LONG DID THAT
TAKE?
>> WITH THE ENERGY WE HAD --
>> Reporter: YOU'RE MOTIVATED
--
>> WE WERE MOTIVATED AND IT TOOK
US MAYBE A DAY.
BUT IT WAS LIKE NINE, 10 OF US
AND EVERYBODY HAD A MACHETE.
AND THEY SAID, WHAT DO I GOT TO
DO?
AND I SAID YOU TAKE THAT SECTION
THERE
AND I'LL TAKE THIS SECTION HERE
AND WE STARTED GOING UPHILL AND
CHOPPING EVERYTHING DOWN...
>> Reporter: IF CARLOS SOUNDS
LIKE HE WENT ROGUE, HE DID.
AND SO DID HIS NEIGHBOURS AFTER
THEY GOT AN EXTRAORDINARY CALL
FROM THE MAYOR.
>> HE SAYS, YOU'RE GETTING
PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY TO WORK
TOGETHER I'LL HAVE ELECTRICITY
FOR YOU IN TWO DAYS.
AND I SAID WHAT?
I FELT LIKE CRYING, I MEAN, IT
WAS SO STUNNING.
AND I SAID TWO DAYS?
I MEAN, WE HAVE GONE THROUGH
HELL.
AND I GOT TO THE COMMUNITY AND I
SAID, GUYS, THE MAYOR SAID IF
YOU HELP THEM OUT WE'LL HAVE
ELECTRICITY IN TWO DAYS.
AND THEY SAID, WELL, LET'S DO
IT.
WHAT DO WE GOT TO DO?
AND I HAD A MEETING IN ABOUT 15
MINUTES WITH THE WHOLE
COMMUNITY.
>> Reporter: IT WAS WEEKS
AFTER THE HURRICANE.
THE ENTIRE ISLAND WAS STILL IN
DARKNESS AND IT WAS BLEAK, AT
LEAST SIX MORE MONTHS TO RESTORE
POWER.
>> THESE ARE THE MAIN
EQUIPMENT...
>> Reporter: THAT'S WHEN THE
MAYOR DID SOMETHING THAT NO ONE
IN PUERTO RICO HAD DONE BEFORE.
HE TOOK POWER INTO HIS OWN
HANDS.
>> IT WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO
DO THAT.
AND WHEN YOU HAVE THE
RESPONSIBILITY YOU HAVE TO DO
IT.
>> Reporter: HE CREATED THE
POWER UTILITY AND CALLED IT THE
PEPINO POWER AUTHORITY.
WHAT WAS IT MADE UP OF?
>> IT'S A MOVEMENT.
WE CREATE, WE ARE THE POLICE,
AND WE ASK RETIREMENT EMPLOYEES
AND WE INCLUDE THOSE IN THE
COMMUNITY, THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE
IN THIS COMMUNITY.
THE PEOPLE STAND UP AND TAKE
CONTROL OF THEIR DESTINY.
>> Reporter: THE TOWN
DOCUMENTED EVERY STEP OF IT IN
DAILY VIDEO UPDATES.
AS A GROUP OF VIGILANTE LINE
WORKERS RECONNECTED THE TOWN TO
THE GRID THEMSELVES.
BUT AS WORD SPREAD SO DID
RESISTANCE.
THE STATE UTILITY AND THE
GOVERNMENT OF PUERTO RICO FILED
COMPLAINTS AND ORDERED THE
AMATEUR UTILITY TO STOP WORK.
AND DID YOU?
>> NO, WE CONTINUED.
I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY SAY.
I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING FOR MY
PEOPLE.
NO ONE CAN STOP US TO DO MY
DUTY.
IT'S MY DUTY TO HELP THE PEOPLE.
>> Reporter: SO INTO THE BUSH
THEY WENT, LED BY RETIRED
WORKERS GILBERT SOTO.
HE GOES BY "GIPO."
WHAT WERE YOU TRYING TO GET TO?
GIPO SHOWS US WHERE HE LED A
TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS TO CLEAR A
PATH.
YOU WERE TRYING TO GET TO THE
POWERLINES?
>> YEAH.
YOU SEE?
>> Reporter: YES.
>> TO THE OTHER SIDE.
>> Reporter: AND THE POWER
THINGS HAD FALLEN?
>> YEAH.
>> Reporter: THE POLES.
SO YOU HAD TO GO THROUGH ALL OF
THIS THICK -- THE TREES.
>> LIKE THIS ALL OVER.
>> Reporter: THAT'S HARD WORK.
>> YEAH, A LOT OF WORK.
>> Reporter: AND THEN THE
HEAT?
>> YEAH.
>> Reporter: WOW.
GIPO AND HIS FOUR TEAM, ALL
RETIRED UTILITY WORKERS, DO THE
REPAIRS.
SEE THOSE COILED SECTIONS ON THE
LINE?
THAT'S WHERE THEY TIED THE TORN
CABLES TOGETHER BY HAND.
>> I AM --
>> Reporter: YOU ARE
RELIGIOUS?
>> IN MY RELIGION AND MY
PERSONAL --
>> Reporter: BELIEF.
>> BELIEF, I HAVE TO SERVICE THE
COMMUNITY.
I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.
>> Reporter: THAT SOMETHING
AMOUNTED TO A LOT.
[Cheers and Applause]
THREE MONTHS AFTER THE HURRICANE
92% OF THE TOWN HAD POWER,
MONTHS BEFORE MOST OF THE
ISLAND.
>> MY WIFE STARTED RUNNING
TOWARDS THE HOUSE AND SIGNALLING
LOOK, THERE'S LIGHT?
AND EVERYBODY STARTED CLAPPING,
WE WERE SO HAPPY.
AND WE CAME OUT ON THE BLOCK AND
EVERYONE TURNED ON THEIR LIGHTS
AND MYSELF AND THEY TURNED ON
THAT TRANSFORMER.
AND THERE WERE THREE OR FOUR
TRANSFORMERS AND THEN THE WHOLE
NEIGHBOURHOOD WAS LIT.
IT WAS AMAZING, VERY AMAZING.
>> Reporter: BECAUSE OF THAT
SUCCESS PUERTO RICO RECENTLY
MADE IT LEGAL FOR OTHER TOWNS TO
CREATE THEIR OWN UTILITIES IN
THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY.
THE LEGACY OF A RENEGADE MAYOR
WHO DIDN'T WAIT FOR PERMISSION.
>> IF AN EMERGENCY
COMES TO PUERTO RICO WE ARE
READY.
WE ARE READY!
>> Reporter: IOANNA
ROUMELIOTIS, CBC NEWS, PUERTO
RICO.
>> Adrienne: "THE MOMENT" IS
UP NEXT.
FIRST THOUGH A STORY OF
SURVIVAL.
ALDI NOVEL ADILANG IS BACK HOME
WITH HIS FAMILY
IN INDONESIA AFTER SPENDING 49
DAYS LOST AT SEA.
THE 18-YEAR-OLD WAS PRETTY WEAK
AS HE CLIMBED ABOARD, RELYING ON
HIS RESCUERS TO HELP HIM STAND.
ADILANG SAID HE RAN OUT OF FOOD
AND
WATER THE VERY FIRST WEEK SO HE
ATE WHAT HE COULD CATCH AND
DRANK THE SEA WATER SQUEEZED
FROM HIS CLOTHES.
THIS WAS THE WOODEN RAFT WHERE
HE WAS STRANDED.
IT'S CALLED A ROMPONG, AND HE'S
BEEN WORKING ON ROMPONGS SINCE
HE WAS 16.
HIS JOB WAS TO LIGHT THE LAMPS
AT NIGHT TO ATTRACT FISH.
ROMPONGS LINE THE COAST OF
MANADO AND WHEN STRONG WINDS
KNOCKED ADILANG'S FREE, HE
DRIFTED, GET THIS, NEARLY 2,000
KILOMETRES
BEFORE HE WAS FINALLY SPOTTED
NEAR GUAM.
SO HE'S NOW BEEN REUNITED WITH
HIS FAMILY.
HE'S APPARENTLY IN PRETTY GOOD
HEALTH.
WHILE HIS FAMILY IS OVERJOYED
THAT HE'S BACK THERE'S A
CATCH -- HIS DAD IS FURIOUS WITH
HIS SON'S BOSS BECAUSE THIS IS
THE THIRD TIME THAT ADILANG'S
>> Ian: OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS,
WE'VE BEEN BRINGING YOU STORIES
OF PEOPLE WHO SURVIVED THE
OTTAWA TORNADOES.
PEOPLE THAT LOST SO MUCH AND YET
ARE STILL THINKING OF OTHERS,
INCLUDING PARAOLYMPIAN TODD
NICHOLSON AND HIS FAMILY.
THEIR DUNROBIN HOME WAS
DESTROYED, BUT STILL GRATEFUL,
THANKFUL FOR THE WORK OF FIRST
RESPONDERS AND THEIR RESILIENCE
IS OUR "MOMENT OF THE DAY."
>> WE ARE IN ONE BEDROOM, ALL
FOUR OF, BUT WE HAVE A HOME AWAY
FROM HOME.
WE CAME HERE FOR THE FIRST
EMERGENCY MEETING ON SATURDAY
MORNING.
AND WE LEFT WHERE WE WERE
STAYING THAT NIGHT.
THEY'RE GOOD FRIENDS OF OURS.
AND WE CAME BACK AND THEY HAD
MADE A RAMP, HANDMADE RAMP, TO
GET IN THEIR FRONT DOOR.
>> THE MESSAGE WE ALSO NEED TO
GET OUT TODAY, I KNOW THERE ARE
A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE OUT OF
POWER AND I KNOW THERE'S A --
THE HYDRO WORKERS ARE EXHAUSTED.
YESTERDAY WHEN WE WERE COMING
OUT, THERE WAS A HYDRO TRUCK
SITTING THERE.
AND WE LOOKED AT THE GENTLEMAN
SITTING INSIDE AND HE WAS
BAWLING HIS EYES OUT.
HE SAID, I DIDN'T LOSE ANYTHING.
I SAID, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
WE LOST EVERYTHING, BUT WE'RE
OK.
HE'S LIKE, WE NEAT TO GET POWER
BACK ON TO PEOPLE.
AND I WAS LIKE, NO, YOU DON'T.
YOU NEED TO GO GET SOME REST.
GET SOME SLEEP.
GET YOURSELF BETTER AND THEN
COME BACK SO YOU DON'T GET HURT
DOING WHAT YOU DO.
>> Adrienne: IT'S ALL SO RAW.
TODD AND EMILY ARE SAYING THAT
SOME OF THEIR NEIGHBOURS ARE
TELLING THEM THAT THEY KEEP
FINDING STUFF OF THEIRS ALL OVER
THE PLACE, AND THEY'RE BRINGING
IT TOGETHER, BRINGING TODD AND
EMILY'S STUFF TO A CERTAIN
LOCATION, RUSHING IT DO IT
BECAUSE THEY KNOW THE RAINS ARE
COMING.
THE COMMUNITIES KEEP REACHING
OUT TO EACH OTHER.
>> Ian: THEY WOULD BE THE FIRST
TO SAY, WE SAW IT IN THAT CLIP
AND I'VE SEEN IT IN OTHER
MATERIAL, WE HAVE SURVIVED.
WE ARE HEALTHY, THOUGH SOME
PEOPLE WERE OBVIOUSLY INJURED IN
THE TORNADO, BUT IT COULD HAVE
BEEN SO MUCH WORSE, BUT IT'S
STILL PRETTY BAD.
AS YOU SAY, LOOK TO THE FORECAST
AND THE RAINS ARE ON THEIR WAY.
>> Adrienne: YEP.
>> Ian: THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR
WATCHING.
THAT IS "THE NATIONAL" FOR
SEPTEMBER 24.
GOOD NIGHT.
>> Adrienne: GOOD NIGHT.
