>> Rosemary: ON THIS SUNDAY
NIGHT...
>> THERE'S THE OPPORTUNITY TO
REDUCE TAXATION AND MAKE US EVEN
MORE COMPETITIVE.
>> Rosemary: CANADA SETS ITS
SIGHTS ON ASIA AS ONE OF THE
WORLD'S
BIGGEST TRADE DEALS COMES INTO
EFFECT.
WHO STANDS TO PROFIT AND WHAT'S
ON THE LINE FOR YOU?
>> I DON'T THINK THAT SHE KNOWS
WHO SHE IS OR WHERE SHE IS.
>> Adrienne: RAISING AWARENESS
AND SHARING IN GRIEF.
>> JUST KNOWING THAT SOMEBODY
ELSE WAS GOING THROUGH IT WAS
ALL I NEEDED.
>> Adrienne: HOW JANN ARDEN
STARTED A NATIONAL CONVERSATION
ABOUT ALZHEIMER'S.
>> GUYS!
GUYS!
>> Rosemary: A HAPPY ENDING TO
THE SEARCH FOR THREE MEN MISSING
IN B.C.'S
BACKCOUNTRY.
THEIR REUNION IS OUR "MOMENT OF
THE DAY".
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."

>>> DONALD TRUMP'S TRADE WAR,
NAFTA, AND EVEN BREXIT, 2018 HAS
BEEN DOMINATED BY DEBATES ABOUT
NOT
JUST WHO CROSSES BORDERS BUT
ALSO WHAT.
IT'S TRADE THAT CAN MAKE OR
UNMAKE INDUSTRIES AND REALLY
SHAPE THE ECONOMIC LANDSCAPE.
AND TODAY A BIG TRADE AGREEMENT
WENT INTO EFFECT.
IT'S CALLED THE COMPREHENSIVE
AND PROGRESSIVE AGREEMENT FOR
TRANSPACIFIC PARTNERSHIP.
AND FOR CANADA AND FIVE OTHER
COUNTRIES THE AGREEMENT IS
ALSO KNOWN AS THE TPP-11 THAT
COMES
INTO EFFECT IMMEDIATELY.
VIETNAM JOINS IN A COUPLE WEEKS.
AND THE REST STILL NEED
RATIFICATION.
THE U.S. NOTABLY IS NOT PART OF
THE DEAL.
BUT EVEN WITHOUT IT, THE TRADE
PACT WILL BE ONE OF THE WORLD'S
LARGEST, COVERING -- GET THIS --
495 MILLION PEOPLE WHO REPRESENT
MORE THAN 13% OF THE WORLD'S
G.D.P.
AND OVER THE LONG TERM IT'S
EXPECTED TO ADD MORE THAN
$4 BILLION TO CANADA'S ANNUAL
G.D.P.
SOME INDUSTRIES, ESPECIALLY
FARMERS, WILL NOTICE CHANGES
RIGHT AWAY.
BUT AS CHRIS O'NEILL-YATES
EXPLAINS, THERE WILL BE WINNERS
AND LOSERS.
>> Reporter: AT THIS VANCOUVER
WAREHOUSE THESE PLASTIC PAILS
ARE DESTINED FOR CONSTRUCTION
SITES OVERSEAS.
THEY'RE FILLED WITH AN ADDITIVE
THAT MAKES CEMENT WATERPROOF.
>> WE'RE LOOKING AT PLACES LIKE
PERU AND JAPAN AND THOSE ARE
GREAT MARKETS FOR OUR PRODUCTS.
SO THIS IS OUR CRYSTAL INTERNAL
MEMBRANE...
>> Reporter: SHE HAS BEEN
EXPORTING FOR 40 YEARS.
THIS PACT WILL REDUCE TARIFFS
AND REGULATORY BARRIERS AS WELL.
>> WHEN WE CAN SELL MORE INTO
THESE OTHER JURISDICTIONS WE CAN
HIRE MORE PEOPLE HERE AND PAY
OUR PEOPLE MORE MONEY, AND
PROVIDE MORE BENEFITS AND
PENSIONS AND ENHANCE THEIR
LIVES.
>> Reporter: HALF OF CANADA'S
CONTAINER TRAFFIC MOVES THROUGH
THE PORT OF VANCOUVER.
UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IT'S GOING
TO GET A LOT BUSIER.
SHIPPING MORE THINGS LIKE
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS TO ASIAN
MARKETS.
B.C. FRUIT GROWERS HOPE TO SEE
EXPORTS DOUBLE.
>> EVEN IF THE U.S. COMES ALONG
LATER, WE WILL HAVE ESTABLISHED
A RELATIONSHIP WITH BUYERS AND
CUSTOMERS IN THOSE COUNTRIES,
AND THAT GIVES US A HEADSTART.
>> Reporter: BUT NOT EVERY
INDUSTRY STANDS TO BENEFIT.
DAIRY PRODUCERS, FOR EXAMPLE,
WILL BE DEALING WITH MORE
COMPETITION.
IN A STATEMENT DAIRY FARMERS SAY
THEY FEEL VERY BETRAYED BY
OTTAWA OVER MARKET CONCESSIONS.
THEY SAY THAT THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT HANDED UP TO 18% MUCH
OF THE INDUSTRY AWAY IN UNDER
FOUR YEARS.
BUT OVERALL THE GOVERNMENT SAYS
THAT CANADIANS WILL SEE
BENEFITS.
>> THEY MAY NOT NOTICE IT THE
VERY NEXT DAY BUT YOU'RE GOING
TO NOTICE IT OVER TIME AS THESE
TARIFFS REDUCE TO ZERO OR VERY
NEARLY ZERO THAT'S GOING TO MAKE
GOODS CHEAPER IN CANADA.
>> Reporter: TAKE JAPANESE
CARS ASSEMBLED OVERSEAS.
THEY'LL BE CHEAPER AS THE 6%
TARIFF IS PHASED OUT.
BUT THE DEAL ISN'T AN IMMEDIATE
BONANZA FOR CANADIAN CONSUMERS,
ACCORDING TO THIS TRADE LAWYER.
>> REALLY THIS IS MORE THAN AN
OPPORTUNITY THAN A BIG BANG
EVENT.
IT'S REALLY GOING TO BE WHAT WE
MAKE OF IT.
>> Reporter: ALREADY FIVE
OTHER COUNTRIES, INCLUDING U.K.
AND INDONESIA, ARE SHOWING
INTEREST IN JOINING THIS
AGREEMENT.
CHRIS O'NEILL-YATES, CBC NEWS,
VANCOUVER.
>> Rosemary: WITHOUT THE U.S.,
THERE MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN A
T.P.P.
THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION WOULD
REALLY A KEY ARCHITECT OF THE
ORIGINAL DEAL, BUT THAT WAS
THEN.
>> President Donald Trump: WE
WILL ALSO IMMEDIATELY STOP THE
JOB-KILLING TRANSPACIFIC
PARTNERSHIP.
>> Rosemary: DONALD TRUMP IN
THE LAST ELECTION FAMOUSLY
CAMPAIGNED AGAINST THE T.P.P.
AND DITCHED IT SOON AFTER TAKING
OFFICE.
BUT THE T.P.P. SURVIVED AND NOW
THAT THE U.S. IS OUT, CANADA
COULD, IN FACT, DO EVEN BETTER
UNDER THE DEAL THANKS IN
PART TO HAVE WEAKENED U.S.
COMPETITION IN HEAVILY PROTECTED
MARKETS LIKE JAPAN.
>> Adrienne: SO WHO COULD
FORGET WHAT DONALD TRUMP
FAMOUSLY CAMPAIGNED FOR AS HE
RAN FOR PRESIDENT -- A BIG
BEAUTIFUL WALL AS HE CALLED IT
TO STOP MIGRANTS CROSSING THE
SOUTHERN BORDER OF THE U.S.
BUT TWO YEARS INTO THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION, NO WALL, AND A
FIGHT OVER FUNDING FOR IT HAS
SHUT DOWN MUCH OF THE U.S.
GOVERNMENT FOR NINE FULL DAYS
BUT AS RON CHARLES REPORTS, NOW
THERE'S A GLIMMER OF A HOPE FOR
A DEAL.
>> Reporter: REPUBLICAN
SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM CAME OUT
OF A TWO-HOUR LUNCH MEETING WITH
DONALD TRUMP TODAY SUGGESTING A
PATH TO END THE STALEMATE OVER
FUNDING FOR TRUMP'S BORDER WALL.
>> I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE
ENCOURAGED, IF WE CAN GET PEOPLE
TALKING...
>> Reporter: GRAHAM SAYS THAT
THERE COULD BE A COMPROMISE THAT
INCLUDES MONEY FOR TRUMP'S WALL
AND SOMETHING DEMOCRATS WANT --
A PERMANENT SOLUTION THAT WOULD
ALLOW THE SO-CALLED DREAMERS WHO
WERE BROUGHT TO THE U.S.
ILLEGALLY AS CHILDREN TO LIVE
WITHOUT FEAR OF DEPORTATION.
>> I THINK THAT'S IN THE REALM
OF POSSIBILITY.
THE PRESIDENT DIDN'T COMMIT, BUT
I THINK THAT HE'S VERY
OPEN-MINDED.
>> Reporter: THE DEMOCRATS
HAVE STEADFASTLY REFUSE GOOD
-- REFUSED ANY
FUNDING FOR A WALL AND TRUMP
REFUSED TO SIGN ANY GOVERNMENT
FUNDING BILL WITHOUT IT.
ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, TRUMP
INSISTED THAT THE WALL WILL BE
UP TO 30 FEET HIGH AND MADE FROM
THICK CONCRETE.
BUT IN AN INTERVIEW PUBLISHED IN
THE "L.A. TIMES" TODAY, OUTGOING
WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF JOHN
KELLY SAID,
"WE LEFT A SOLID CONCRETE WALL
EARLY ON IN THE ADMINISTRATION
WHEN WE ASKED PEOPLE WHAT THEY
NEEDED AND WHERE THEY NEEDED
IT."
TRUMP HAS CHANGED THE LANGUAGE
TO DESCRIBE HIS PROMISE, USING
VARIOUS TERMS INCLUDING "WALL,
BARRIER AND FENCING" AND EVEN
RECENTLY TWEETING A DIAGRAM
SHOWING
POINTY METAL FLATS.
WHITE HOUSE OFFICIALS DOWNPLAYED
THE DIFFERENT TERMS FOR WHAT
TRUMP PROMISED.
>> IT IS A SILLY SEMANTIC
ARGUMENT BECAUSE PEOPLE WHO JUST
WANT TO SAY WALL, WALL, WALL,
WANT IT TO BE A FOUR-LETTER WORD
AND NOT RESPECT WHAT CUSTOMS AND
BORDER PATROL AND I.C.E. TELL US
THEY NEED WHICH IS ENHANCEMENTS
AT THE BORDER.
>> Reporter: THE PARTIAL
GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN IS LIKELY TO
CONTINUE FOR SOME TIME BECAUSE
ON THURSDAY THE NEW CONGRESS
BEGINS AND THE DEMOCRATS ARE
TAKING CONTROL OF THE HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES, MEANING THAT IT
WILL BE EVEN HARDER FOR TRUMP TO
GET HIS AGENDA THROUGH.
RON CHARLES, CBC NEWS,
WASHINGTON.
>> Rosemary: IN JUST TWO DAYS
ALBERTA'S PLAN TO
BOOST OIL PRICES WILL KICK INTO
EFFECT, CUTTING PRODUCTION FOR
THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES IN
THAT OF PROVINCE.
IT'S AN ACTION THAT THE PREMIER
SAYS IS DIFFICULT BUT NECESSARY
AT A TIME WHEN MANY ALBERTANS
SAY THEY FEEL FRUSTRATED WITH
OTTAWA'S INACTION FOR THE ENERGY
SECTOR.
AS AUSTIN GRABISH REPORTS,
THEY HAVE A NEW PLAN TO MAKE
SURE THAT THEY'RE HEARD.
>> BUILD THAT PIPE!
BUILD THAT PIPE!
>> Reporter: ANGER HAS BEEN
BUILDING IN ALBERTA FOR MONTHS
AND OIL WORKERS SAY THAT THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT JUST ISN'T
LISTENING.
NOW THEY'RE VOWING TO TAKE THEIR
FIGHT ALL THE WAY TO OTTAWA.
>> THERE'S GOING TO BE, YOU
KNOW, ACROSS THIS NATION A LOT
OF PEOPLE WANTING TO GET
INVOLVED, WHETHER OR NOT IT'S
FROM B.C. ALL THE WAY ACROSS TO
OTTAWA.
THEY'LL WANT TO GET IN ON THIS
CONVOY, BIG OR SMALL.
>> Reporter: CHAD MILLER IS A
FATHER OF THREE.
THE CONTRACTOR HAS SEEN WORK DRY
UP.
AND HE'S ORGANIZING A CONVOY
THAT HE SAYS WILL GO TO THE
NATION'S CAPITAL IN FEBRUARY.
>> SOME OF THIS FUNDING IS
AVAILABLE TO DEAL WITH THE CASH
FLOW ISSUES.
>> Reporter: MILLER FEELS THAT
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT'S RECENT
$1.6 BILLION AID PACKAGE DOES
LITTLE FOR PEOPLE LIKE HIM.
THE MONEY IS MAINLY IN THE FORM
OF
LOANS FOR OIL PRODUCERS.
BUT NATURAL RESOURCES MINISTER
AMERJEET SOHI'S OFFICE INSISTED
ON
SUNDAY THAT THE CASH WILL
SUPPORT WORKERS AND MAKE THE
COUNTRY COMPETITIVE.
QUOTE "WE WILL NOT BACK DOWN
FROM SUPPORTING THIS SECTOR AND
THE HARD-WORKING CANADIANS IT
EMPLOYS."
BUT ALBERTA'S PREMIER SAYS THAT
LOANS AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH.
>> WE HAVE BEEN VERY FIRM THAT
WHAT ALBERTA NEEDS AND WHAT
CANADA NEEDS IS FOR ALBERTA TO
BE ABLE TO SUCCEED.
THAT MEANS BEING ABLE TO GET
PROJECTS BUILT.
>> Reporter: PIPELINE ADVOCATE
SUZANNE SEXTON AGREES.
SHE'S
KEEPING A CLOSE WATCH ON THE
SITUATION FROM WINNIPEG.
MEMBERS OF HER FAMILY HAVE BEEN
LAID OFF.
>> WE'VE HAD SOME PERSONAL
TRAGEDIES IN OUR FAMILY RELATED
TO THE DOWNTURN IN 2015.
AND IT'S A POLITICAL CRISIS.
THIS DIDN'T HAVE TO HAPPEN.
>> TRUDEAU, WE DON'T WANT YOUR
MONEY...
>> Reporter: BACK AT ROCKY
MOUNTAIN HOUSE, PEOPLE ARE
STRUGGLING.
THIS WORKER AQUINA DENIS SAYS
THAT THIS IS CANADA'S PROBLEM.
>> THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT EVERYBODY RELIES ON AND SO
DOES THE REST OF THE COUNTRY
RELY ON US AND YOU TAKE THAT
AWAY, WELL, THEN WHERE IS CANADA
CANADA?
>> Reporter: AND ALBERTANS
LIKE HER SAY THEY'LL BE ON
OTTAWA'S DOORSTEP SOON TO MAKE
SURE THAT THEIR VOICES ARE
HEARD.
AUSTIN GRABISH, CBC NEWS,
WINNIPEG.
>> Rosemary: A NATIONAL ENERGY
BOARD STUDY THAT WAS OUT LAST
WEEK PAINTS A PICTURE ABOUT JUST
WHAT ALBERTA IS UP AGAINST.
WESTERN CANADA IS PRODUCING
365,000 EXTRA BARRELS OF CRUDE A
DAY THAT'S NOT FLOWING INTO
PIPELINES.
THAT'S WHY ALBERTA'S GOVERNMENT
IS TAKING THOSE DRASTIC
MEASURES, IMPOSING A PRODUCTION
CUT OF 325,000 BARRELS A DAY.
THAT STARTS ON TUESDAY.
THEY'RE HOPING THAT WILL EASE
THE CRISIS AND BOLSTER PRICES.
IN THE MEANTIME OIL PRODUCERS
ARE INCREASINGLY TURNING TO RAIL
TO TRANSPORT THEIR PRODUCTS.
ALMOST 2.5 TIMES MORE THAN A
YEAR AGO.
>> Adrienne: JANN ARDEN, WHOSE
MUSIC AND BOOKS AND SOCIAL MEDIA
POSTS HAVE CAPTIVATED CANADIANS,
HAS BEEN SHARING ANOTHER STORY
WITH THIS COUNTRY -- THAT OF HER
MOTHER'S EXCRUCIATING JOURNEY
WITH ALZHEIMER'S.
LATE LAST NIGHT ARDEN'S MOTHER,
JOAN, DIED.
WHAT AND WHO ALZHEIMER'S TAKES
IS A TRAUMA THAT AN INCREASING
NUMBER OF CANADIANS CAN RELATE
TO.
ACCORDING TO THE ALZHEIMER'S
SOCIETY OF CANADA, APPROXIMATELY
564,000 CANADIANS ARE CURRENTLY
LIVING WITH SOME FORM OF
DEMENTIA.
AND OVER THE NEXT 15 YEARS THAT
FIGURE IS EXPECTED TO GROW TO
937,000 AS THE POPULATION AGES.
ADRIAN CHEUNG SHOWS US HOW JANN
ARDEN WORKED TO BREAK DOWN THE
STIGMA.
>> Reporter: JANN ARDEN'S
MESSAGE WAS A SIMPLE ONE -- MOM
IS GONE.
THE RESPONSE TO HER POST
OVERWHELMING WITH THOUSANDS
REACTING TO NEWS THAT ARDEN'S
MOTHER HAD DIED AFTER A LONG
STRUGGLE WITH DEMENTIA.
SHE SPOKE AND WROTE OPENLY ABOUT
HER MOTHER'S FINAL YEARS.
>> IT IS NOT JUST FORGETTING TO
SET THE CLOCK RADIO AND BANAL
THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN DAY-TO-DAY
LIFE.
THIS IS SOMETHING'S WRONG.
>> Reporter: ARDEN, EVER AN
HONEST VOICE, OPENED UP ABOUT
HER OWN STRUGGLES AS A
CAREGIVER, AND EVEN WRITING A
BOOK CALLED "FEEDING MY MOTHER."
SHE SAID THAT IT WAS HARD FOR
HER TO ACCEPT THE NEW REALITY.
>> I WAS THE MEMORY POLICE.
I WOULD CORRECT HER.
I'M STILL VERY MUCH IN DENIAL.
>> Reporter: ARDEN POSTED
OFTEN ON FACEBOOK.
>> I DON'T THINK THAT SHE KNOWS
WHO SHE IS OR WHERE SHE IS.
>> Reporter: A COMMUNITY OF
CAREGIVERS TO THEIR OWN LOVED
ONES WAS BORN.
>> AND JUST KNOWING THAT
SOMEBODY ELSE WAS GOING THROUGH
IT WAS ALL I NEEDED.
>> MONEY DOESN'T PROTECT YOU
FROM GRIEF AND I THINK THAT THIS
PLATFORM AND THE WAY THAT SHE
SHARED HER JOURNEY IS REALLY
BEAUTIFUL.
>> Reporter: ARDEN IS NOT THE
ONLY PROMINENT CANADIAN RAISING
AWARENESS OF DEMENTIA.
>> SHAME AND STIGMA ASSOCIATED
WITH THE DISEASE...
>> Reporter: COMEDIAN SETH
ROGEN CREATED HILLARITY FOR
CHARITY, RAISING MONEY FOR
ALZHEIMER'S RESEARCH.
HIS MOTHER-IN-LAW LIVES WITH THE
DISEASE.
>> I WANT TO PAY TRIBUTE TO THE
CAREGIVERS AND SERVICE
PROVIDERS...
>> Reporter: AND CONSERVATIVE
M.P. LISA RAITT SHARED HER
HUSBAND'S
STRUGGLES WITH EARLY ONSET
DEMENTIA.
>> JANN ARDEN HAS DONE A
TREMENDOUS JOB BY OPENING
HERSELF UP AND TALKING ABOUT HER
EXPERIENCES.
>> Reporter: NEUROLOGISTS ARE
FOLLOWING ARDEN'S JOURNEY AND
HAVE
CREATED A SITE TO EXPLAIN THE
STAGES OF DEMENTIA AND WHAT
CAREGIVERS CAN DO TO HELP.
>> THE MORE PEOPLE THAT WE DRAW
ATTENTION TO THIS ISSUE, THE
HIGHER THE LIKELIHOOD THEY'LL
DRAW SUPPORT FROM ONE ANOTHER
AND REALIZE THAT THEY'RE NOT
ALONE.
>> Reporter: NOT JUST A
COMFORT BUT A TOOL FOR
CAREGIVERS IN AN OFTEN
LONELY FIGHT, A FIGHT THAT JANN
ARDEN KNOWS ALL TOO WELL.
ADRIAN CHEUNG, CBC NEWS,
TORONTO.
>> Rosemary: NOW AS YOU PLAN
FOR NEW YEAR'S EVE TOMORROW
REMEMBER
THIS -- THERE'S A NEW LAW THAT
MAKES IT EASIER FOR POLICE TO
TEST DRIVERS FOR ALCOHOL AND
DRUGS.
BEFORE THE OFFICERS HAD TO HAVE
A, QUOTE "REASONABLE SUSPICION"
THAT A DRIVER HAD BEEN DRINKING
BEFORE DEMANDING A BREATHALYZER.
BUT NOW ANY DRIVER THEY LEGALLY
STOP CAN
BE FORCED TO GIVE THAT SAMPLE.
CBC'S KAYLA HOUNSELL GOT A
FIRSTHAND
LOOK AT HOW POLICE WILL CHECK
FOR IMPAIRMENT.
>> OKAY, YOU CAN STAND UP NOW.
SO THAT GOES IN THERE AND YOU'LL
BLOW HERE...
>> Reporter: THIS YOUNG WOMAN
IS PROVIDING A BREATH SAMPLE
AFTER BEING PICKED UP FOR
IMPAIRED DRIVING.
IT'S JUST AFTER NOON ON A
MONDAY.
>> KEEP BLOWING, KEEP BLOWING,
OKAY.
>> Reporter: PROVIDING A
BREATH SAMPLE IS THE
FIRST STEP IN A 12-STEP DRUG
RECOGNITION EVALUATION PROCESS.
BUT BEFORE WE SHOW YOU HOW THIS
ENDS LET'S TALK ABOUT HOW WE GOT
HERE.
WE'RE RIDING ALONG WITH CORPORAL
DOWE HUTCHINSON OF THE NOVA
SCOTIA RCMP.
HE'S TAKING US TO A CHECKPOINT
WHERE THE OFFICERS ARE LOOKING
FOR ALCOHOL AND DRUGS.
>> WITH THE LEGALIZATION OF
CANNABIS, OBVIOUSLY THERE'S AN
INCREASE OF PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING
TO CONSUME IT.
>> Reporter: WHEN WE ARRIVE
CONSTABLE CHAD MORRISON IS
ALREADY
PULLING OVER DRIVERS.
>> HI THERE, HOW ARE YOU TODAY,
SIR?
>> Reporter: HE'S AN EXPERT IN
DRUG RECOGNITION.
>> ANYTHING TO DRINK TODAY, SIR?
ANY DRUGS USED TODAY?
>> NOPE.
>> EXCELLENT.
>> Reporter: THAT'S THE WAY
THAT MOST OF THESE ENCOUNTERS
END.
>> DRIVE SAFE.
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
>> YOU TOO.
>> Reporter: BUT WITHIN THE
FIRST 30 MINUTES THEY MEET THAT
YOUNG WOMAN THAT YOU SAW BLOWING
THE BREATHALYZER.
>> WHEN IS THE LAST TIME THAT
YOU USED DRUGS OR ALCOHOL?
>> NOT IN A WHILE.
>> Reporter: MORRISON DEMANDS
THAT SHE PERFORM A PHYSICAL
COORDINATION TEST.
>> DO YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE DOING
THAT?
OH, WATCH YOURSELF THERE.
>> Reporter: HE CHECKS HER
EYES.
>> BEGIN.
>> Reporter: AND HER
BALANCE...
>> ONE, TWO, THREE...
>> BASED ON THE WAY YOU
PERFORMED ON THOSE TESTS I'M
PLACING YOU UNDER ARREST.
>> Reporter: HE SUSPECTS DRUG
IMPAIRED DRIVING.
AT THE DETACHMENT THE WOMAN
BLOWS THE BREATHALYZER AT TWO
AND A HALF TIMES THE LEGAL LIMIT
LIMIT.
AND THAT MAKES THE OFFICER
CHANGE THE REASON FOR HER
ARREST.
>> I'M EXPLAINING TO YOU THAT
THE SCOPE OF OUR INVESTIGATION
IS SHIFTING FROM DRUGS TO
ALCOHOL.
>> Reporter: MORRISON DECIDES
NOT TO USE THE NEW APPROVED DRUG
SCREENING EQUIPMENT.
>> THIS IS THE DRAGER DRUG TEST
5000.
>> Reporter: SO HE
DEMONSTRATES ON ME.
>> THIS IS THE SPONGY PIECE THAT
WILL COLLECT YOUR ORAL FLUID.
>> Reporter: IT'S THE ONLY
APPROVED EQUIPMENT IN CANADA AS
OF JUNE.
DO YOU KNOW THAT THE RCMP ARE
USING IT ACROSS THE COUNTRY?
>> I COULDN'T SAY THAT IT'S ALL
ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
DO BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE
OTHER JURISDICTIONS USING IT.
>> Reporter: MORRISON PUTS MY
SAMPLE IN THE MACHINE.
HOW LONG WILL THIS TAKE NOW?
>> THIS WILL TAKE ABOUT FOUR TO
FIVE EMPTIES.
-- FIVE MINUTES.
>> Reporter: IT TESTS FOR
COCAINE AND CANNABIS.
>> AND SO TO LOOK AT THE BOTTOM
AND IT SAYS COCAINE NEGATIVE AND
T.H.C., NEGATIVE.
>> Reporter: THE RCMP HAS
EXPANDED TRAINING AS A RESULT OF
LEGALIZATION.
THERE WERE DOUBLE THE NUMBER OF
COURSES THIS YEAR FOR DRUG
RECOGNITION EXPERTS.
>> THERE ARE STILL LOTS OF
PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT ARE
DRIVING WHILE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL AND THERE
ARE STILL LOTS OF PEOPLE OUT
THERE DRIVING WHILE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF DRUGS.
WE CONSIDER BOTH TO BE EQUALLY
DANGEROUS AND IMPORTANT FOR US
TO ENFORCE.
>> WE'RE GOING TO BE OUT IN FULL
FORCE AND HAVE INCREASED
CHECKPOINTS.
>> Reporter: THEIR MESSAGE OVER
THE HOLIDAYS IS SIMPLE -- USING
MARIJUANA MAY BE LEGAL, BUT
USING IT WHILE DRIVING IS NOT.

THE OTHER STORIES THAT WE'RE

MY ONLY CONCERN IS THAT WE HAVE

PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE A TURNOUT
THAT

LARGEST COUNTRY.
BY THE TIME THAT THE POLLS

IN CANADA MORE THAN 51,000 ARE

WAS IN 2001.
AND IN THE U.S. 2.5 MILLION
GRANDPARENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR

THIS HIGH RISE FEELS WORLDS AWAY

DIRTY.
VERY DIRTY IN THE HALLWAYS.
YOU'VE GOT TO CLIMB OVER PEOPLE

TO MARK CRITCH, NEWFOUNDLAND IS
HOME CLEARLY, AND WHILE HE
DOESN'T SEE HIS BELOVED PROVINCE
IN QUITE THE SAME LIGHT, HIS

I CAUGHT UP WITH HIM EARLIER
THIS EVENING.

EVEN THAT GUY SOUTH OF THE

TWEET THAT IT IS RAINING.
GOD IS NOT PEEING ON ME.

PROVINCE WITH ITS STORYTELLING,
CRITCH IS NOW TELLING HIS.
>> I DON'T SWIM, I DON'T SKATE.
>> Rosemary: THAT IS
INTERESTING TO ME THAT YOU DON'T
SWIM.
HIS NEW MEMOIR PAINTS A PICTURE
OF GROWING UP IN NEWFOUNDLAND
THAT IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN
YOU MIGHT THINK.
>> THERE'S NOT A LIGHTHOUSE AND
NO SCHOONERS AND NOT THE
NEWFOUNDLAND EXPERIENCE.

MARK CRITCH IN ST. JOHN'S FOR A
TOUR AND FOR A TALK.
THIS PLACE -- WHAT IS IT
CALLED LC --
>> THE LSPU HALL.
>> Rosemary: OH, THE LSPU
HALL.
WHAT IS THIS PLACE TO YOU?
>> THIS ORIGINALLY WAS A LONG
SHOREMAN'S PROTECTIVE UNION, SO
THE LONGSHOREMEN WOULD COME HERE
AND ARGUE AND YELL AND SCREAM.
AND THE ARTSY CROWD GOT IN HERE
LIKE MICE AND MADE A THEATRE
HERE.
WHEN I WAS 15 YEARS OLD I CAME
HERE AND ASKED THEM TO RENT IT
AND THEY GAVE US TO A 60/40
SPLIT.
AND WE DID THE SHOW.
AND AFTERWARDS WHEN THEY GAVE ME
THE 60%, I THOUGHT THEY MADE A
MISTAKE AND TOOK OFF.
THIS IS THE FIRST PLACE THAT I
PERFORMED ANYTHING THAT I HAD
EVER WRITTEN.
>> Rosemary: SO PART OF YOUR
CHILDHOOD IS DEFINED BY WHERE
YOU LIVED -- WHICH WE'LL GO AND
CHECK OUT.
BUT IT WAS SORT OF REMOTE -- THE
HOUSE
CAME WITH YOUR DAD'S JOB AS A
REPORTER.
>> YEAH, DAD WAS BASICALLY A
LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER BUT HIS
LIGHTHOUSE WAS A RADIO STATION
AND DAD WAS A JOURNALIST.
SO HE WAS THE LAST LIVING PERSON
TO
COVER CONFEDERATION WITH CANADA
WITH THE NEWSPAPER.
THEN HE WENT INTO RADIO.
AND HE WAS VERY WELL KNOWN
AROUND HERE FOR CRIME REPORTS.
HE HAD A VERY ST. JOHN'S TOWNIE
ACCENT.
AND SO IT WAS THE WAY THAT HE
SPOKE.
AND EVERYBODY KNEW HIM.
AND EVERYBODY COULD DO AN
IMPRESSION OF DAD.
BUT HE -- WE LIVED RIGHT NEXT
DOOR TO THE STATION WHICH WAS ON
BASICALLY THE TRANS-CANADA
HIGHWAY.
THEY NEEDED A HIGH POINT FOR THE
TRANSMITTER.
SO SOMETIMES A BIG BLACK CAR
WOULD PULL UP HERE AND JOEY
SMALLWOOD WOULD JUST PUT DOWN
THE WINDOW IN THE CAR AND KIND
OF LEAN OUT.
AND YOU'D LOOK UP, THERE'S THE
PREMIER.
HOW ARE THINGS TODAY?
THINGS ARE WONDERFUL, THINGS ARE
FINE, THINGS ARE INCREDIBLE --
JOBS, JOBS
JOBS AND THEN THE CAR WOULD PEEL
AWAY.
LIKE HE WOULDN'T EVEN GET OUT
THE CAR SO THAT WAS VERY
EXCITING FOR ME.
>> Rosemary: YOUR MOM TOO WAS
A STORYTELLER AND A GOSSIP IT
SOUNDED LIKE.
SHE KNEW WHAT WAS HAPPENING
EVERYWHERE.
>> MOM -- MOM WAS PERPETUALLY
TALKING, LIKE CONSTANTLY.
>> Rosemary: ONE OF THE BEST
STORIES -- AND I DIDN'T KNOW
THAT
YOU WERE ASTHMATIC.
>> AND EPILEPTIC.
>> Rosemary: SO ONE OF THE
BEST STORIES IS WHEN THE POPE
COMES TO TOWN AND SHE GETS IN
HER HEAD THAT HE CAN CURE YOU.
>> NOT NECESSARILY A CURING BUT
YOUR SON HAS WHAT THE BIBLICAL
WRITERS WOULD SAY ARE "DEMONS."
[laughter]
AND THE PONTIFF HAPPENS TO BE IN
TOWN, YOU KNOW, THERE'S A GOOD
CHANCE, RIGHT?
>> STEPPING ON NEWFOUNDLAND SOIL
FOR THE FIRST TIME...
>> AND THE POPE HAD NEVER BEEN
HERE BEFORE.
AND SO, YEAH, SO THEY BROUGHT ME
DOWNTOWN.
AND WE WERE OUT IN A HORRIBLE
STORM AND WE HAD TO WAIT FOR THE
POPE TO KIND OF GO BY.
AND GO RRRROOOOMMMM AND THAT WAS
IT.
AND DO YOU FEEL BETTER?
I GUESS.
AND WE WERE TRYING TO GET OUT OF
THERE, AND THE TRAFFIC WAS SO
BAD.
SO SHE KEPT DRIVING AND THEN THE
CANADIAN ARMY TRIED TO SAY THAT
YOU CAN'T COME DOWN HERE.
AND MY MOM IS LIKE PRETEND THAT
YOU HAVE AN ASTHMA ATTACK.
AND I HAVE TO GET MY SON TO THE
HOSPITAL.
IF HE DIES IT'S YOUR FAULT.
AND THEY'RE LIKE, WAVE HER
THROUGH, WAVE HER THROUGH!
AND I'M FAKE WHEEZING IN THE
BACK AND STARTING TO ACTUALLY
WHEEZE, IT WAS THAT KIND OF A
THING.
>> Rosemary: I UNDERSTOOD YOUR
MOM WHEN YOU TOLD THAT STORY.
>> YEAH, YEAH, SCREW THIS, WE'RE
GOING THROUGH.
THAT KIND OF THING.
AND THAT IS VERY HELPFUL TO ME,
THAT KIND OF THING.
BECAUSE LATER ON PEOPLE SAY THAT
THE PRIME MINISTER WON'T DO AN
INTERVIEW, OR, NO, YOU CAN'T GO
IN THERE BECAUSE SO AND SO IS IN
THERE.
OH, YOU KNOW FAKE AN ASTHMA
ATTACK AND GO THROUGH.
THERE'S ALWAYS A WAY, RIGHT?
ALWAYS A WAY.
>> Rosemary: YEAH.
I WONDERED BEING IN THAT HOUSE
SORT OF ISOLATED, I WONDER
WHETHER THAT HELPED YOU TO
BECOME THE PERSON THAT YOU ARE
IN SOME WAY WITH YOUR
IMAGINATION OR WITH YOUR --
>> YEAH, I GUESS THAT THERE'S --
THERE'S ONLY TWO WAYS TO GO.
I WOULD GUESS THAT IT WOULD BE
SOME FORM OF ENTERTAINER OR
SERIAL KILLER.
I THINK THAT THERE'S TWO, YOU
KNOW, KIND OF CAREER PATHS AT
THAT POINT.
RIGHT HERE WAS WHERE I DID
EVERYTHING.
SO LIKE I WOULD BE -- MY BEDROOM
WAS RIGHT HERE.
AND THE TV WAS RIGHT HERE.
AND SO I WOULD SIT HERE AND JUST
WATCH WAYNE AND SHUSTER FOR
HOURS.
>> Rosemary: IT WASN'T A VERY
BIG HOUSE.
>> NO, IT WAS ABOUT THE SAME
SIZE AS
THE HOUSE ACROSS STREET.
IT WAS A TINY HOUSE BY TODAY'S
STANDARDS.
YOU WERE VERY MUCH LEFT TO YOUR
OWN DEVICES AND YOU HAD TO COME
UP WITH SOMETHING.
SO, YEAH, THE STORIES AND
CHARACTERS AND, YOU KNOW, LITTLE
PLAYS WITH ACTION FIGURES OR
WHAT HAVE YOU.
AND THAT WAS, YOU KNOW, YOUR
WHOLE WORLD WAS KIND OF IN YOUR
HEAD.
>> Rosemary: WHICH BECAME SORT
OF THE CHALLENGE THEN WHEN YOU
GOT SENT OFF TO SCHOOL, MUCH TO
YOUR HORROR.
>> YEAH.
>> Rosemary: YOU THOUGHT THEY
WERE JOKING.
>> WELL, I THOUGHT THIS IS NOT
SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS TO A
GENTLEMAN, I HAVE A FINE LIFE
HERE.
I KNEW THAT MY BROTHER GOT ON
THE SCHOOL BUS BUT HE WAS MUCH
OLDER.
AND, YOU KNOW, AND NOT AS
OUTGOING AS I WAS.
TRULY TO GOD -- BUT, NO, I HAD
NO IDEA.
AND THERE WASN'T A BIG THING
ABOUT IT EITHER.
AND I REMEMBER GROWING UP
WITHOUT KIDS AROUND AND THEN MY
MOM IS LIKE I HAVE YOUR BOOKBAG.
AND I WONDER WHAT THAT IS FOR.
AND THEN THE BUS COMES, THERE
YOU GO.
AND SHOULD WE NOT HAVE SPOKEN
ABOUT THIS MORE?
AND I GET ON THE BUS AND I HAD
NEVER SEEN THAT MANY KIDS.
THERE'S LIKE 30 KIDS ON THE BUS
OR SOMETHING.
I'M LIKE, WHAT THE HELL DO I DO
NOW?
AND THEN WE GET TO THE PARKING
LOT AND THEN THERE'S OTHER BUSES
AND I'M LIKE SURELY TO GOD
THEY DON'T HAVE CHILDREN -- THEY
DO.
AND THEN THERE WERE MORE KIDS
INSIDE THE BUILDING AND I
THOUGHT WHEN DOES THIS STOP?
WHEN DOES THIS STOP!
AND SO, YEAH, I HAD NO IDEA HOW
TO LIKE INTERACT WITH MORE THAN
ONE CHILD AT A TIME OR
SOMETHING.
>> Rosemary: AND YOU STARTED
TO -- I THINK THAT IT'S THE
FIRST TIME THAT YOU GOT A LAUGH
WHEN YOU HAD TO DO AN
INTRODUCTION OF A PLAY.
>> YEAH, MY FIRST LAUGH, I WAS
PLAYING THE COLOUR YELLOW IN THE
BIG SHOW AT THE SCHOOL CONCERT.
AND THE ARCHBISHOP WAS THERE AND
EVERYTHING.
IT WAS A VERY BIG DEAL.
AND I WAS SAYING ARCHBISHOP,
BISHOP, FATHERS, BROTHERS,
SISTERS, PARENTS, FRIENDS AND
PUPILS, BUT I HAD NEVER SEEN
THAT WORD SO I SAID POOP HILLS
AND THEY LAUGHED.
AND I WOULD SAY POOP HILLS AND
THEY LAUGHED.
POOP-HILLS.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON
WHY I'M GETTING THIS LAUGH.
AND THEY CAME AND HAULED ME OFF.
AND I REMEMBER SEEING THE BISHOP
HA, HA, AND I'M LIKE HE GETS IT,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
PUT ME BACK!
SO THAT WAS THE FIRST KIND OF A
OH, I SEE.
>> Rosemary: AND THEN IT
BECAME PLAYS AND THE COMEDY
TROUPE.
>> AND ALL OF THAT STUFF, YEAH.
>> Rosemary: SO WHAT DID THEY
MAKE OF IT THEN WHEN THEY'D SEE
YOU TEASING THE PRIME MINISTER,
RUNNING AFTER MINISTERS --
BECAUSE THAT'S DIFFERENT THAN
BEING ON THE STAGE WHICH IS, YOU
KNOW, A PRECEDENT IN ITSELF.
BUT TO MAKE A JOB OF MOCKING
PEOPLE IN PLACES OF AUTHORITY.
>> I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS ABOUT
TO GET THE JOB -- WHEN MERCER
LEFT AND THEN THEY BROUGHT UP
MYSELF AND MAJUMDER TO TORONTO
FOR AUDITIONS AND THEN BE THEY
GOT
COLIN MOCHRIE OF DOING IT AND
THEN THERE WAS TALK OF US DOING
IT.
BACK HOME LOCALLY THAT GOT
AROUND AND I'M LIKE HOW DID THAT
GET AROUND BECAUSE I DIDN'T TELL
ANYBODY.
AND AFTERWARDS WHEN THEY SAID
WE'LL HAVE YOU TO BE A WRITER OR
SOMETHING AND I'D HAVE MEDIA
PEOPLE SAYING
THAT I HEAR THAT YOU'LL BE THE
NEW RICK MERCER AND ALL OF THAT.
AND I'M LIKE WHO TOLD YOU THIS?
AND SOMEONE SAID YOUR DAD HAS
BEEN CALLING AROUND TO THE MEDIA
AND TELLING YOU THEM.
I GOT A SCOOP, BOB, I GOT THE
CONTRACT HERE.
LIKE HE WAS VERY PROUD AND THAT
KIND OF THING.
BUT SOMETIMES YOU'D SAY
SOMETHING OR SOMETHING WOULD
HAPPEN AND HE'D BE LIKE, DID YOU
HAVE TO DO THAT, YOU KNOW, DID
YOU HAVE TO GO THAT FAR?
>> Rosemary: WAS THERE
SOMETHING THAT YOU COULD
REMEMBER WHERE HE THOUGHT THAT
YOU DID A DISSERVICE --
>> WHEN CAROLYN PARRISH GOT
PUSHED OUT OF GOVERNMENT BECAUSE
I GOT HER TO STEP ON A GEORGE
BUSH DOLL DURING THE WAR.
>> THIS HOUR ON "22 MINUTES"
WE'LL TALK TO CAROLYN PARRISH
ABOUT THIS GUY, GEORGE W. BUSH.
CAROLYN?
>> THEY WERE LIKE YOU HAVE
RUINED THIS WOMAN'S LIFE.
SHE STEPPED ON IT.
AND IT WAS LIKE THAT WAS A BIG
THING BECAUSE AT THE TIME I
REMEMBER GETTING OFF THE PLANE
FROM THERE AND THE TV BEING ON
BACK ON AT WORK AND PEOPLE WERE
LIKE -- AND DON NEWMAN IS THERE,
AND AT THE 20 SECOND MARK SHE
STEPS ON THE HEAD OF GEORGE
BUSH.
WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS MEANS,
PANEL?
THEY HAVE A PANEL?
OH, NO!
AND SO THAT WAS LIKE, OH, GEEZ,
YOU SEE THE RAMIFICATIONS OF
SOMETHING THAT YOU DO.
BUT FOR DAD HE THOUGHT IT WAS A
BIT MUCH.
THAT WAS ON THE FRONT PAGE OF
THE PAPER, THE "GLOBE & MAIL"
THE NEXT DAY WAS A PICTURE OF
HER.
>> Rosemary: DID YOU THINK
THAT IT WAS TOO MUCH?
>> NO.
BUT I CALLED HER AFTERWARDS,
RIGHT, AND I APOLOGIZED TO HER.
AND I'M LIKE I'M SO SORRY THIS
HAPPENED AND WE HAD A NICE TALK
AND SHE IS LIKE, SCREW IT, IT'S
FINE AND EVERYTHING.
SHE WAS VERY NICE ABOUT IT.
>> Rosemary: I ASKED MERCER
THIS QUESTION WHEN HE WAS
WRAPPING UP THE SHOW AND IT'S
STILL SOMETHING THAT I'M NOT
SURE THAT I GET, NO MATTER HOW
MANY BOOKS THAT I READ OR PEOPLE
THAT I MEET.
WHAT IS IT ABOUT THIS PLACE THAT
CREATES PEOPLE LIKE YOU, LIKE
MERCER, LIKE ALAN DOYLE, LIKE
ALL
OF THESE PEOPLE WITH THESE
AMAZING STORYTELLING ABILITIES
AND COMEDIC TALENTS.
LIKE, THERE'S SOMETHING HERE, DO
YOU AGREE, THAT MAKES PEOPLE
DIFFERENT?
>> I THINK THAT IT'S THE SAME
THING THAT GOT
ME GOING LIVING IN A WEIRD HOUSE
NEXT TO A RADIO STATION.
THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT THAT
ISOLATION.
THERE'S SOMETHING IN
NEWFOUNDLANDERS AND LABRADORIANS
THAT COMING TOGETHER IN A SMALL
PLACE, YOU DEPEND ON EACH OTHER
AND IT'S A COMMUNITY.
YOU KNOW THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU
AND YOU KNOW WHAT IS WRONG.
IF SOMETHING IS WRONG, YOU FIX
IT, THAT KIND OF A THING.
BUT THE STORYTELLING THING IS
LIKE WHERE BECAUSE OF THE
ISOLATION OVER THE YEARS AND
THESE SMALL COMMUNITIES THAT YOU
HAD TO ENTERTAIN EACH OTHER AS
WELL.
SO IF YOU DIDN'T PLAY THE
ACCORDION OR SING A SONG OR STEP
DANCE -- YOU HAD TO DO
SOMETHING AND THE ONLY LEFT TO
DO WAS TO TALK, RIGHT?
AND YOU GOT TO BE GOOD ABOUT
TALKING.
BOY, IF YOU WANT TO GET IN FRONT
OF A BUNCH OF NEWFOUNDLANDERS
AND HAVE THEM PAY YOU $10 TO
TALK -- YOU BETTER TALK.
BECAUSE EVERYBODY THERE CAN TALK
BETTER THAN YOU, YOU KNOW?
I THINK THAT IS A SMALL PLACE
AND ENTERTAINING EACH OTHER,
REALLY, IS WHERE A LOT OF THAT
COMES FROM.
>> Adrienne: WELL, CLEARLY HE
KNOWS HOW TO TALK -- SO DO YOU.
IT'S NOT JUST SOME OF THE BEST
STORYTELLERS THAT COME OUT OF
NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR, SO DO
SOME OF THE BEST STORIES.
WE'VE GOT ONE A LITTLE BIT LATER
ABOUT THE L.A. RAPPER WHO HAS
SUDDENLY CANCELLED HIS NEW
YEAR'S EVE BOOKING IN CORNER
BROOK.
>> Rosemary: HMM, CURIOUS.
BUT NEXT "A REPORTER'S NOTE
NOTEBOOK," COVERING AMERICA IN
THE SHADOW OF A TRUMP PRESIDENCY
PRESIDENCY.
>> Reporter: IT CAN BE
OVERWHELMING AT TIMES TRYING TO
COVER THE NEWS DOWN HERE BECAUSE
IT CHANGES SO QUICKLY AND
THERE'S SO MUCH.
>> President Donald Trump:
YES, SIR, GO AHEAD.
(*)
>> President Donald Trump: SO
THIS WAS GOING TO BE MY REMARKS
AND IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN ABOUT
TWO MINUTES.
[laughter]
[Applause]
THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A LITTLE
BORING.
THAT'S ENOUGH, THAT'S ENOUGH.
THAT'S ENOUGH.
THAT'S ENOUGH.
>> Question: PARDON ME, MA'AM.
>> President Donald Trump:
THAT'S ENOUGH.
YOU REMEMBER HOW THEY USED TO
SAY HOW EASY IT IS TO BE
PRESIDENTIAL.
I WOULD BE OUT OF HERE RIGHT
NOW, YOU'D BE SO BORED.
>> Adrienne: SO THAT'S
PRESIDENT TRUMP PLAYING TO HIS
FAMILIAR ARE FOLLOWERS AND
LASHING OUT AT THE PRESS,
SOMETIMES BOTH AT ONCE.
WHAT IS IT LIKE TO COVER A
PRESIDENT WHO USES JOURNALISTS
AS POLITICAL PROPS?
OUR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT
PAUL HUNTER TELLS US THAT AND
MORE IN HIS "REPORTER'S
NOTEBOOK."
(*)
>> Reporter: IT WAS A BUSY,
BUSY, BUSY YEAR.
(*)
I THINK THAT IF YOU WANT TO KNOW
ABOUT AMERICA AND THE AGE OF
TRUMP, THERE'S ONE PLACE TO GO
TO FIND OUT AND THAT'S AMERICA.
[Cheers and Applause]
WE WENT TO A TRUMP RALLY IN
HOUSTON IN THE SORT OF WANING
DAYS OF THE MIDTERM CAMPAIGN.
[Applause]
IT IS A SHOW.
AND DONALD TRUMP KNOWS HOW TO
PUT ON A SHOW.
>> HIS OPPONENT IN THIS RACE IS
THE STONE-COLD PHONY...
>> Reporter: AS A JOURNALIST
WE'RE KEPT IN A PEN IN THE
MIDDLE.
AND THEN TRUMP MAKES A REFERENCE
TO THE MEDIA OUT THERE, YOU
KNOW, AND GESTURES TO THE PEN.
SUDDENLY EVERYTHING CHANGES.
THE TONE IN THE ROOM DARKENS.
>> BOO!
>> Reporter: SO, YOU KNOW, HOW
DOES THAT MAKE OUR JOB MORE
DIFFICULT?
IT'S INTIMIDATING, RIGHT?
IT'S AN UNSETTLING POSITION TO
BE IN WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE
CROWD IN THE ARENA LOOKS AT YOU,
THE MEDIA IN THE PEN, AND STARTS
BOOING.
AND THEN THE RALLY ENDS AFTER AN
HOUR OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
AND SO WE DID WHAT ANY, YOU
KNOW, GOOD NEWS CREW WOULD DO,
NOW WE'RE RELEASED FROM THE
MEDIA PEN AND LET'S GO OUT AND
TALK TO PEOPLE.
>> ELECTRIFYING.
HE REALLY KNOWS HOW TO MOVE AN
AUDIENCE.
>> IT WAS GREAT.
THAT WAS JUST REALLY THE THING
THAT WE NEEDED.
>> Reporter: AND PEOPLE WERE,
A, PUMPED UP BECAUSE THEY HAD
JUST SEEN TRUMP BUT PLEASANT
AGAIN -- WHICH AGAIN REMINDS ME
AND SHOULD REMIND ALL OF
US, THAT EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTS
TRUMP -- THEY'RE JUST AMERICANS
WHO HAPPEN TO BELIEVE IN THIS
GUY AND THE THINGS THAT HE SAYS
AND STANDS FOR.
BUT THEY'RE NICE PEOPLE.
(*)
>> BRETT'S ASSAULT ON ME
DRASTICALLY ALTERED MY LIFE FOR
A VERY LONG TIME...
>> Reporter: WHEN I THINK BACK
TO MOMENTS OF THE YEAR, AND I
THINK OF BLASEY FORD JUST
TELLING HER STORY IN SUCH A
BELIEVABLE WAY, TO BE
CONTRADICTED BY KAVANAUGH BUT
THEN WITHIN A FEW DAYS, WELL, WE
DECIDED THAT WE CAN'T GET TO THE
BOTTOM OF IT, REALLY, BLAH,
BLAH -- HE'S IN.
>> I TAKE THIS OFFICE WITH
GRATITUDE AND NO BITTERNESS.
>> Reporter: THAT WAS AN
UNUSUAL, TO SAY THE LEAST... I
THINK WHAT RESONATED WITH ME
AND, YOU KNOW, MILLIONS OF
PEOPLE IS JUST WHAT IT MUST HAVE
TAKEN FOR HER TO DO THAT.
HOW HARD THAT WAS TO DO, KNOWING
THE FALLOUT THAT WOULD COME FROM
THAT.
I DON'T THINK THAT I'LL EVER
FORGET IT.
IT WAS REMARKABLE.
>> Andrew: THIS IS "THE
NATIONAL."
>> Rosemary: TONIGHT RESIDENTS
OF A TIGHT KNIT FLORIDA
COMMUNITY ARE
FACE-TO-FACE WITH THE HORROR OF
A MASS SHOOTING...
>> Reporter: AND YOU LIVE IN
THE STATES LONG ENOUGH AS A
JOURNALIST AND YOU'LL COVER A
LOT OF MASS SHOOTINGS.
IT'S JUST THE WAY THAT IT IS.
AND I HAVE COVERED MY SHARE OF
THEM IN MY TIME HERE.
AND SO THIS YEAR WE HAD
PARKLAND...
(*)
AND THEN LIKE SO MANY OTHER SUCH
SHOOTINGS WHAT HAS FOLLOWED THIS
ONE IS OUTRAGE AND DESPAIR.
>> IF YOU DO NOT STAND WITH US
BY SAYING WE NEED TO HAVE GUN
LEGISLATION, YOU HAVE CHOSEN...
>> Reporter: AFTER PARKLAND,
THERE WAS THE RALLY IN
WASHINGTON.
IT WAS ONE OF THOSE
UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS IN THIS
COUNTRY.
>> I HAVE A DREAM THAT ENOUGH IS
ENOUGH.
[Cheers and Applause]
>> Reporter: SO WHEN THE DAYS
AROUND THAT STUDENT RALLY AFTER
PARKLAND WE WONDERED WHAT ABOUT
OTHER PEOPLE... AND SO WE TOOK A
DRIVE UP TO BALTIMORE.
AND WE WENT TO A HIGH SCHOOL IN
BALTIMORE.
HOW MANY PEOPLE HERE KNOW
SOMEBODY WHO HAS BEEN SHOT?
RAISE YOUR HAND.
>> WHEN A BLACK PERSON GETS
SHOT, DO THEY DO ANYTHING ABOUT
IT?
NO.
DO WE HAVE A MARCH?
NO.
>> Reporter: AND THEY SAID
NOBODY MARCHES FOR US.
IT'S NOT IN HEADLINES.
WE'RE BLACK.
YOU KNOW... SO WHAT GOES THROUGH
YOUR HEAD IS, LIKE, WHAT IS
GOING ON HERE?
WHY ISN'T THE WHOLE COUNTRY
RISING UP TO STOP THAT?
IS IT BECAUSE NOBODY CARES?
I DON'T BELIEVE THAT AMERICANS
DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT.
BUT PEOPLE AT THAT SCHOOL IN
BALTIMORE BELIEVE THAT.
AND IT'S SAD.
IT CAN BE OVERWHELMING AT TIMES
TRYING TO COVER THE NEWS DOWN
HERE BECAUSE IT CHANGES SO
QUICKLY AND THERE'S SO MUCH.
BUT I FIND THAT WHEN YOU DO YOUR
JOB --
>> President Donald Trump:
YES, SIR, GO AHEAD.
>> Question: THANK YOU,
MR. PRESIDENT.
AND IT SEEMS THAT THERE WAS
GIVE-AND-TAKE ON BOTH SIDES FOR
THIS DEAL...
>> Reporter: AS CORNY AS IT
SOUNDS IT'S SATISFYING.
IF THE JOB OF A JOURNALIST IS TO
INFORM PEOPLE, TO INFORM VOTERS,
TO INFORM THE POPULATION, SO
THAT PEOPLE CAN MAKE BETTER
CHOICES ABOUT WHAT THEY DO WITH
THEIR LIVES, HOW THEY VOTE, THEN
YOU'VE DONE YOUR JOB.
AND I THINK THAT JOURNALISTS CAN
FEEL GOOD ABOUT THAT.
WHEN YOU DO THAT, I THINK THAT
YOU SURVIVE BECAUSE -- BECAUSE
TRUTH RISES.
(*)
>> Rosemary: HE'S GOOD AT HIS
JOB.
WE HAVE TO TAKE A SHORT BREAK
AND JUST AHEAD... THREE MISSING
SNOWMOBILERS ARE LUCKY TO BE
ALIVE.
>> GUYS!
>> Rosemary: AWWW, HUG IT UP,
GUYS.
THE REUNION IN REVELSTOKE IS OUR
"MOMENT OF THE DAY."
>>> BUT, FIRST, A NEWFOUNDLAND
NEW YEAR'S PARTY GOT BURNED AND,
YES, THAT'S A PUN.
"IN CASE YOU MISSED IT"... * I
WAS GOING TO CREATE MY ROOM
UNTIL I GOT HIGH *
>> Rosemary: THIS IS AFRO MAN
WITH HIS POT RAP ANTHEM "BECAUSE
I
GOT HIGH."
AFRO MAN WAS TO PERFORM AT THIS
CORNER BROOK VENUE, A COUP FOR
THE BAR OWNER DAVE YOUNG.
>> THE PHONE WAS GOING OFF THE
HOOK.
>> Rosemary: AND THEN AFRO MAN
POSTED THIS --
>> CANADA AND NEWFOUNDLAND,
YEAH, MAN, I HAD
SOME REAL SUPER HIGH AIRPLANE
TICKETS AND CAN'T DO THE NEW
YEAR'S THING.
I APOLOGISE FOR THIS.
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT CANADIAN
PLANE TICKETS WAS THAT HIGH.
I WAS GOING TO CHECK CANADIAN
PLANE TICKETS AND THEN I GOT
HIGH...
>> Rosemary: THAT LEFT YOUNG
HIGH AND DRY WITH HIS CUSTOMERS.
>> SOME ARE LIKE WHAT IS GOING
ON?
AND SOME ARE LIKE, COOL, DAVE.
AND THEY KNOW ME.
THEY KNOW THEY'LL GET
THEIR MONEY BACK.
>> Rosemary: YOUNG HAS A
REPLACEMENT ACT LINED UP.
>> I D.J. MYSELF SO I'M GOING TO
GO PUT ON A FULL SHOW.
WE'LL STILL GIVE THEM A GOOD
TIME AND NOT LET THIS TO BE A
DOWNER FOR ANYBODY.
>> Rosemary: AS FOR AFRO MAN,
THE PLAN IS HE COMES TO CORNER
BROOK IN THE NEW YEAR... MAYBE.
>> Adrienne: ALL TOO MANY
CANADIANS HAVE RECEIVED THE
TERRIFYING NEWS THAT LOVED ONES
ARE LOST IN THE COLD.
NOW JUST DAYS AGO THREE MEN FROM
ALBERTA WENT MISSING WHILE
SNOWMOBILING IN REVELSTOKE, B.C.
TODD KENNEDY AND HIS SON BRAYDON
AND FAMILY FRIEND RYAN PYPER.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THEY WERE
FOUND SAFE AND THEIR EMOTIONAL
REUNION WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS
IS OUR "MOMENT OF THE DAY" AND
IT'S ESPECIALLY POWERFUL GIVEN
HOW SCARED EVERYONE WAS.
>> I WAS TERRIFIED, TO BE
HONEST.
I MEAN, THE WEATHER IS NOT GOOD
IN REVELSTOKE TODAY.
IT'S RAINING AND IT'S SNOWING.
AND THE WEATHER IS REALLY BAD
THERE.
>> WHEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS
IMPACTS YOUR FAMILY YOU JUST
REALLY KNOW WHO YOUR FRIENDS AND
FAMILY REALLY ARE.
>> Adrienne: FIRST CAME THE
NEWS THAT THE MISSING TRIO WAS
SAFE AND THEN CAME THIS...
>> GUYS!
GUYS!
OH, MY GOD.
>> I TOLD YOU THEY'D MAKE A
FIRE.
>> YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THIS
TO US EVER AGAIN.
>> WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY FOR
YOURSELF?
>> WHEN YOU GO SLEDDING MAKE
SURE THAT YOU DON'T TAKE THE
WRONG TURN.
>> Adrienne: OKAY, THAT'S ONLY
ONE BIT OF ADVICE THERE.
YOU HEARD FROM DENISE KENNEDY,
SO HER HUSBAND TODD AND HER SON
BRAYDON WERE BOTH OUT THERE SO
SHE WAS STRESSED OUT WHEN OUR
PRODUCER REACHED OUT TO HER
TODAY AND SAID HOW IS EVERYBODY
TODAY, HOW DID YOU CELEBRATE?
AND SHE SAID WITH GRATITUDE AND
ALCOHOL, AS YOU DO.
>> Rosemary: YES, A WISE
DECISION.
AND I SHOULD SAY THEY ACTUALLY
AND SHE SAID WITH GRATITUDE AND
ALCOHOL, AS YOU DO.
>> Rosemary: YES, A WISE
DECISION.
AND I SHOULD SAY THEY ACTUALLY
STOPPED WHEN THEY WERE REALISED
THEY WERE LOST AND BUILT A FIRE.
SO THAT IS ACTUALLY I GUESS HOW
YOU DO IT, OTHER THAN THE
GRATITUDE AND ALCOHOL.
AND THEY APPARENTLY SLEPT ALL
DAY BECAUSE THEY WERE EXHAUSTED.
SO, YEAH, DON'T DO THAT AGAIN.
YOU'RE GROUNDED, LIKE FOREVER.
THAT'S "THE NATIONAL" FOR
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 30th.
GOODNIGHT, EVERYBODY.
>> Adrienne: GOODNIGHT.
