>> Ian: ON THIS FRIDAY NIGHT,
GROWING CONCERNS FOR HAITI.
>> THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
FIGHT IN HAITI'S INDEPENDENCE.
>> Ian: WE TALK TO PEOPLE WHILE
ANGRY PROTESTERS FILL THE
STREETS.
WHY THE HATIAN PRESIDENT SAYS HE
WON'T STEP ASIDE.
>> Ian: DONALD TRUMP DECLARES A
NATIONAL EMERGENCY AT THE
U.S.-MEXICO BORDER, FREEING UP
MONEY FOR HIS LONG-PROMISED
WALL.
WE'LL LOOK AT WHY IT'S FAR FROM
A DONE DEAL.
>>> AND AFTER WE DUG UP HUNDREDS
OF CASES OF SEXUAL ABUSE IN
AMATEUR SPORT, YOU SENT US YOUR
QUESTIONS.
TONIGHT, WE ANSWER THEM.
>>> THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
[*]
>> Andrew: DISTRICT RAGE IN
HAITI HAS FUELLED VIOLENT
PROTESTS FOR LONGER THAN A WEEK
NOW, AND A LONG AWAITED
ANNOUNCEMENT BY THEIR PRESIDENT
HAS DONE NOTHING TO QUELL THE
FURRY.
THAT HAS LEFT MORE THAN 150
CANADIANS STRANDED THERE.
CONDITIONS ARE SO DANGEROUS,
MOST WON'T DRIVE TO THE AIRPORT,
BUT LAST NIGHT, FIVE DID.
LAST NIGHT, WE TOLD YOU ABOUT
DR. BAZILE, WHO WENT TO HAITI TO
DRIVER MEDICAL SUPPLIES.
THE DOCTOR AND HIS TEAM BRAVED A
JOURNEY FROM THE PORT CITY TO AN
AIRPORT IN THE CAPITAL, NORMALLY
150 KILOMETRES, BUT BLOCKADES
STRETCHED THE TRIP TO 7.5 HOURS.
>> PLEASE DO NOT DO WHAT I DO.
YOU HAVE TO PAY SOMEBODY EVERY
TIME WE PASS TO AROULLOW YOU TO
PASS.
THEY FINALLY ALLOWED AN
AMBULANCE TO PASS FOR $150 IT
WAS WORTH IT.
WE ARE NOW OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
>>> SO HOW DID HAITI GET TO THIS
POINT?
THE POOREST COUNTRY IN THE
AMERICAS WAS PUSHED EVEN CLOSER
TO DESPERATION BY PUNISHING
INFLATION AND AN APPARENTLY
CORRUPT GOVERNMENT.
>>> IN ONE DAY, SIX PEOPLE WERE
KILLED DURING PROTESTS.
SINCE THEN, DOUBLE DIGIT
INFLATION HAS DRIVEN UP THE COST
OF LIVING.
OVER THE LAST NINE DAYS, THINGS
HAVE REACHED A BREAKING POINT.
>> RIGHT NOW, THE HOSPITALS ARE
NOT WORKING.
YOU CAN'T REALLY FIND, LIKE,
CLEAN WATER TO DRINK.
IT MIGHT BE WORSE THAN WHEN WE
HAVE, LIKE, NATURAL DISASTERS
BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT THE SUN
WILL RISE AGAIN, BUT NOW, THE
COUNTRY LOOKS DOWN BECAUSE OF
THE POLITICAL SITUATION AND THE
ECONOMIC SITUATION.
>> Ian: NOW, THE PRESIDENT,
JOVENEL MOÏSE HAS BRUSHED OFF
DEMANDS THAT HE RESIGN.
RIGHT NOW, THE SITUATION IS SO
DIRE, THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT
SAID IT'S HALTING ALL
DEPORTATIONS TO HAITI.
MONTREAL IS HOME TO CANADA'S
LARGEST HATIAN COMMUNITY.
THE CBC CAUSAL SON NORTHCOTT
TALKED TO SOME OF THEM.
>> Reporter: DANIEL SAYS THE
LATEST PROTESTS ARE DIFFERENT.
>> THIS ONE IS THE TRUE
SITUATION OF THE PEOPLE.
>> Reporter: HE'S EAGER TO
RETURN TO HAITI TO SEE WHAT'S
HAPPENING NOW AND SAYS THE
VIOLENCE WON'T DETER HIM.
>> VIOLENCE IS REALLY IMPORTANT
HERE.
IF NOT FOR THE VIOLENCE, THE
GOVERNMENT NOT GOING TO GIVE A
DAMN.
>> Reporter: THE ONGOING
PROTESTS HAVE BEEN A RECURRING
TOPIC ON THE AIR AT MONTREAL'S
HATIAN RADIO STATION.
HE AND OTHERS IN THE HATIAN
HATIAN DIASPORA ARE WORRIED
ABOUT THE COUNTRY.
HE ADDS THAT HAITI'S PRESIDENT
HAS LOST CONTROL, FAILED TO
DELIVER ON PROMISES MANY
HATIAN -- HAITIANS WERE COUNTING
ON AND SHOULD STEP DOWN.
SOME CANADIANS ARE ON HAITIAN
MISSIONS, LIKE THIS CANADIAN
NURSE.
>> THERE ARE ROAD BLOCKS IN
PLACE, BURNING TIRES.
THOSE BARRICADES ARE MANNED.
THEY DO NOT ALLOW YOU TO PASS.
>> Reporter: SHE SAYS SHE'S
DISAPPOINTED BY THE CANADIAN
RESPONSE AND IS WORRIED ABOUT
RUNNING OUT OF FOOD AND CELL
PHONE SERVICE.
AS FOR THE 113 TOURISTS UNABLE
TO LEAVE THIS RESORT, QUEBEC'S
PREMIER SAYS AIR TRANSAT IS
ORGANIZING A RESCUE PLAN TO USE
HELICOPTERS TO GET THEM TO THE
AIRPORT THEN BACK TO MONTREAL.
ALLISON NORTHCOTT, CBC NEWS,
MONTREAL.
>> Ian: DONALD TRUMP HAS
DECLARED A NATIONAL EMERGENCY TO
FREE UP MONEY TO GET HIS WALL.
THE QUESTION IS WHAT HAPPENS
NOW?
ELLEN MORROW HAS REACTION.
>> Reporter: THERE WAS NO
SURPRISE IN HOW PRESIDENT TRUMP
JUSTIFIED HIS DECLARATION.
>> President Donald Trump: WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT AN INVASION OF OUR
COUNTRY WITH DRUGS, WITH HUMAN
TRAFFICKERS, WITH ALL TYPES OF
CRIMINALS AND GANGS.
>> Reporter: NEVER MIND THAT
ILLEGAL BORDER CROSSINGS HAVE
OVERALL BEEN ON THE DECLINE,
TRUMP'S DECLARED A NATIONAL
EMERGENCY, SIDESTEPPING CONGRESS
TO FREE UP $8 BILLION TO BUILD A
WALL THAT CANDIDATE TRUMP
PROMISED MEXICO WOULD PAY FOR.
BUT WAS DECLARING A NATIONAL
EMERGENCY ACTUALLY NECESSARY?
NOT REALLY, SAYS TRUMP HIMSELF.
>> President Donald Trump: I
COULD DO THE WALL OVER A LONGER
PERIOD OF TIME.
I DIDN'T NEED TO DO THIS.
>> Reporter: A LINE SEIZED UPON
BY CALIFORNIA'S ATTORNEY GENERAL
AS HE ANNOUNCED A LAWSUIT TO
STOP THE WALL FROM BEING BUILT.
>> AS HE SAID HIMSELF, HE DIDN'T
HAVE TO DO THIS.
THERE'S NO EMERGENCY FOR THE
NATION.
>> Reporter: AND THOSE LAWSUITS
COULD MEAN MONTHS, MAYBE YEARS
BEFORE ANY GROUND IS BROKEN AS
THE COURTS CONSIDER --
>> WHETHER THE PRESIDENT IS
TRYING TO DO AN END-AROUND
CONGRESS'S EXCLUSIVE AUTHORITY
OVER THE PURSE.
AND AS WE KNOW, THE ONLY REAL
REASON WHY HE'S SORT OF
UNILATERAL
UNILATERALLY DECLARED AN
EMERGENCY IS BECAUSE HE COULDN'T
GET FUNDING FOR THE WALL.
>> Reporter: AND THE PRESIDENT
IS UP FOR THE FIGHT.
>> AND WE'LL END UP IN THE
SUPREME COURT, AND HOPEFULLY,
WE'LL GET A FAIR SHAKE.
>> Reporter: OPPONENTS HAVE
ACCUSED PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR A
RECKLESS DISREGARD FOR THE
CONSTITUTION.
>>> SO WHAT'S THE END GAME?
WELL, EVEN THOUGH HE KNOWS HE
MIGHT NOT WIN IN THE COURTS,
DECLARING A NATIONAL EMERGENCY
ALLOWS PRESIDENT TRUMP TO TELL
HIS BASE THAT HE DID EVERYTHING
HE COULD TO FULFILL A CAMPAIGN
PROMISE.
THAT'S AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE
GOING INTO 2020.
ELLEN MORROW, CBC NEWS,
WASHINGTON.
>> Ian: THE TERM NATIONAL
EMERGENCY MIGHT MAKE YOU THINK
PRESIDENTS USE THE EXTRAORDINARY
POWER FOR EVENTS HAPPENING IN
THE UNITED STATES, BUT IT TURNS
OUT MOST OF THE TIME, THAT'S NOT
THE CASE.
MOST HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN ABOUT
FOREIGN POLICY, SANCTIONING
FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS OR STOPPING
THE SPREAD OF WEAPONS OF MASS
DESTRUCTION.
IN FACT OF THE 59 NATIONAL
EMERGENCIES DECLARED BEFORE
TODAY, JUST THREE HAD TO DO WITH
EMERGENCIES IN THE U.S.
RELAXING REQUIREMENTS OF THE
H-1-N-1, AND AFTER 9-11.
FOR MORE ON THE POLITICAL
CONTEXT OF THE U.S. PRESIDENT,
LET'S TURN TO KEITH BOAG IN
WASHINGTON.
KEITH, WHAT'S GOING ON?
>> Reporter: REMEMBER, PRESIDENT
TRUMP SAID HE WAS GOING TO BUILD
A WALL AND HAVE MEXICO PAY FOR
IT.
IT WAS A GREAT LINE FOR CAMPAIGN
RALLIES BECAUSE IT STOOD FOR
KEEPING PEOPLE HIS BASEDN'T LIKE
OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
THE PROBLEM IS THAT PEOPLE ON
THE RIGHT LIKE ANN COLTER LOVES
TRUMP FOR WHAT HE PROMISED TO DO
BUT ARE UNFORGIVING WHEN HE
FAILS TO DELIVER.
TODAY HE TRIED TO LOOK AS THOSE
HE'S STILL THEIR CHAMPION, BUT
COULTER SAID TODAY, THE REAL
NATIONAL EMERGENCY IN AMERICA IS
THAT THE PRESIDENT IS AN IDIOT,
SO THAT'S WHAT HE GOT FOR HIS
EFFORTS.
>> Ian: SO WE HEARD THAT THE
FATE OF THIS WALL IS FAR FROM
CERTAIN.
HOW DOES THIS PLAY OUT FOR HIM?
>> Reporter: WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE
ALL THIS IS GOING TO BE TIED UP
IN THE COURTS UNTIL AFTER THE
2020 ELECTION.
SO YOU SEE TRUMP TODAY PREPARING
HIS STATEMENTS FOR THE CAMPAIGN
ABOUT HOW NONE OF THIS IS REALLY
HIS FAULT.
HE BLAMED THE REPUBLICAN
LEADERSHIP FOR NOT MOVING AHEAD
WITH THE WALL IN THE FIRST STAGE
OF HIS PRESIDENCY, AND THAT'S
LIKELY TO WORK WITH HIS BASE.
I MEAN, IF HE DOES BELIEVE HE
COULD SHOOT SOMEBODY ON FIFTH
AVENUE AND IT WOULDN'T COST HIM
A SINGLE VOTE, HE COULD
CERTAINLY BLAME SOMEBODY FOR NOT
GETTING HIS WALL.
IT COULD COST HIM WITH VOTERS HE
GOT IN 2016.
THEY'VE SEEN THE PRESIDENT WASTE
TIME, MONEY, AND SHUTDOWN THE
GOVERNMENT FOR IT, AND
ULTIMATELY FAIL, AND THAT LOOKS
LIKE INCOMPETENCE.
>> Ian: THE FUNDING IS EXPECTED
TO PAY FOR 376 KILOMETRES OF
FENCING.
THAT'S LESS THAN A QUARTER OF
WHAT HE SAID HE ORIGINALLY
WANTED TO BUILD.
>>> LET'S TURN TO CANADIAN
POLITICS, AND IT'S BEEN A ROUGH
WEEK FOR THE PRIME MINISTER,
FACING THE SNC-LAVALIN STORY.
JUSTIN TRUDEAU INSISTS THAT JODI
WILSON-RAYBOULD WAS NOT
INSTRUCTED TO STEER THE CASE
AWAY FROM THE COURTROOM, BUT NOT
MUCH ELSE, AND THAT IS PROMPTING
MORE QUESTIONS.
KATIE SIMPSON WALKS US THROUGH
THE LATEST.
>> Reporter: THIS WEEK HAS BEEN
SO DIFFICULT FOR THE PRIME
MINISTER THAT AT AN ANNOUNCEMENT
WITH BLACKBERRY, THE COMPANY'S
C.E.O. JOKED WITH JUSTIN
TRUDEAU'S POLITICAL WOES.
>> ONE THING I FOUND CONSISTENT
IN THE LAST SIX YEARS IS THE
SUPPORT WE GOT FROM THE CANADIAN
GOVERNMENT.
SOMETIMES NOT SO MUCH FROM THE
CANADIAN MEDIA.
I'M SURE A LOT OF PEOPLE
RESONATE WITH THAT.
>> Reporter: TRUDEAU FACED
ANOTHER ROUND OF QUESTIONS ON
THE SNC-LAVALIN AFFAIR,
ADMITTING HIS FORMER JUSTICE
MINISTER PRESSED HIM DIRECTLY
ABOUT THE ISSUE.
>> Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau: JODI WILSON-RAYBOULD
ASKED ME IF -- IF I WAS
DIRECTING HER OR GOING TO DIRECT
HER TO TAKE A PARTICULAR
DECISION, AND I, OF COURSE, SAID
NO.
>> Reporter: TRUDEAU
ACKNOWLEDGED THE INTENSE
LOBBYING BY THE QUEBEC FIRM AND
PROVINCIAL POLITICIANS BUT
DENIES HIS OFFICE TRIED TO
PRESSURE JODI WILSON-RAYBOULD
INTO KILLING THE COURSE CASE
AGAINST SNC-LAVALIN, BUT HE
WOULD NOT RULE OUT THAT HER
DEMOTION TO VETERAN'S MINISTER
IN JANUARY WAS BECAUSE SHE
REFUSED TO INTERVENE.
>> Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau: THERE ARE ALWAYS A WIDE
RANGE OF FACTORS THAT GO INTO
MAKING THAT DECISION, BUT AS I
SAID, IF SCOTT BRISON HAD NOT
STEPPED DOWN SUDDENLY OVER THE
CHRISTMAS BREAK, THERE WOULD NOT
HAVE BEEN A CABINET SHUFFLE.
>> Reporter: TRUDEAU'S
NONCOMMITTAL ANSWERS ARE
FRUSTRATING THE OPPOSITION.
>> SO TO ME, THAT JUST MEANS WE
REALLY NEED TO GET TO THE BOTTOM
OF THE ENTIRE STORY.
>> Reporter: THE CONSERVATIVES
AND N.D.P. SAY TRUDEAU MUST
WAIVE SOLICITOR-CLIENT PRIVILEGE
AND CAB SHE TELL RULES TO ALLOW
WILSON-RAYBOULD TO GIVE HER SIDE
OF THE STORY.
>> SHE SHOULD TALK TO THE
CANADIAN PEOPLE AND HE SHOULD
STOP HIDING BEHIND THE
SOLICITOR-CLIENT PRIVILEGE.
>> Reporter: THE DALY SLOW DRIP
OF INFORMATION FROM THE PRIME
MINISTER IS FUELLING THIS SAGA,
AND WITH M.P.s RETURNS TO OTTAWA
NEXT WEEK, JUSTIN TRUDEAU WILL
FACE FRESH CALLS FOR
TRANSPARENCY.
KATIE SIMPSON, CBC NEWS, OTTAWA.
>> Ian: A MAN WAS CHARGED IN THE
FIRST DEGREE MURDER OF HIS
DAUGHTER AFTER AN AMBER ALERT
CAME TO A HEART WRENCHING END.
RIYA RAJKUMAR WAS REPORTED
MISSING AROUND DINNER TIME YES,
VALENTI
VALENTINE'S DAY.
IT WAS ALSO HER BIRTHDAY AND THE
BIRTHDAY OF HER MOTHER.
HER BODY WAS FOUND IN HIS
FATHER'S BRAMPTON, ONTARIO HOME
JUST A SHORT WHILE AFTER RIYA
WAS DECLARED MISSING.
TODAY AT HER SCHOOL, GRIEF
COUNCILLORS WAS BROUGHT IN.
RELATIVES OF THE ACCUSED SAID
THEY HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING
ON UNTIL THEY SAW THE AMBER
ALERT.
>> HE WAS ALWAYS A COUSIN TO
LOOK UP TO, LIKE, WE JUST NEVER
EXPECTED THIS TO HAPPEN.
>> I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
IT'S STILL TOTALLY SHOCK.
WE'RE -- YOU KNOW, I DON'T
EVEN -- WE'RE SPEECHLESS.
WE CAN'T EVEN MOVE WHEN WE SAW
AND HEARD THIS BAD NEWS.
>> Ian: A MOTORIST WHO ALSO
HEARD THAT AMBER ALERT HELPED
POLICE FIND THE FATHER MINUTES
LATER 130 KILOMETRES AWAY.
HE'S NOW IN HOSPITAL WITH AN
UNDISCLOSED MEDICAL CONDITION.
POLICE ARE TOUTING HIS ARREST AS
A SUCCESS FOR THE AMBER ALERT
SYSTEM, BUT IT DIDN'T SAVE RIYA.
THERE ARE QUESTIONS AS TO
WHETHER THE POLICE MOVED QUICKLY
ENOUGH.
>> Reporter: THIS IS WHAT POLICE
IN ONTARIO HEARD AND SAW ON
THEIR MOBILE PHONES LAST NIGHT
AFTER 11:30, BUT THIS AM BETTER
ALERT WAS ISSUED ALMOST FIVE
HOURS AFTER LITTLE RIYA RAJKUMAR
WAS REPORTED MISSING BY HER
MOTHER.
THE ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE
ADMINISTERS THE AMBER ALERT
SYSTEM AND REQUIRES CASES TO
MEET THREE CRITERIA.
>> THE FIRST CRITERIA IS THE
CHILD BE UNDER THE AGE OF 18.
THE SECOND CRITERIA IS THEY HAVE
TO BELIEVED TO BE IN DANGER.
AND THE THIRD CRITERIA IS
DESCRIPTIONS ON ONE OF THREE
THINGS, THE CHILD, THE SUSPECT,
OR THE VEHICLE.
>> Reporter: POLICE IN BRAMPTON,
ONTARIO SAYS RIYA'S CASE
APPEARED TO MEET THAT CRITERIA,
BUT OFFICERS HAD TO INVESTIGATE
FIRST.
>> MAYBE IT ISN'T, BUT WHAT THEY
THINK -- WE WANT TO COVER
EVERYTHING.
WE DON'T WANT TO LEAVE ANYTHING
UNTURNED.
OBVIOUSLY WHEN WE REALIZE WE'RE
NOT GETTING HER, WE SPLIT THE
FORM FOR THE AM BETTER ALERT.
>> Reporter: ALSO OF CONCERN,
SHORTLY AFTER RIYA WAS REPORTED
MISSING, OFFICERS KNOCKED ON THE
DOOR OF HIS FATHER'S HOUSE WHERE
THE BODY WAS EVENTUALLY FOUND,
BUT THEY LEFT BECAUSE THERE WAS
NO ANSWER AND NO CAR IN THE
DRIVEWAY.
IT WAS ONLY HOURS LATER THAT
THEY FINALLY FORCED THEIR WAY
IN.
>> AT SOME POINT IN THE
INVESTIGATION, THEY RECEIVED
ENOUGH INFORMATION THAT THEY
FELT THAT -- THAT THE GIRL, THE
11-YEAR-OLD GIRL COULD IN FACT
BE IN THE RESIDENCE AND WAS IN
NEED OF ASSISTANCE.
SO WITH THAT INFORMATION, FEAR
FOR SOMEBODY'S LIFE, THEY WERE
ABLE TO FORCE ENTRY.
>> Reporter: THE POLICE WAS
ASKED IF THEY'LL REF THEIR
POLICY ON FORCED ENTRY WHEN
DEALING WITH A CHILD.
>> WE WANT TO FINISH DEALING
WITH THIS PORTION OF THE
INVESTIGATION AND PERHAPS THAT
WILL BE SOMETHING THAT WILL BE
LOOKED AT LATER.
>> Reporter: SMALL COMFORT FOR A
MOTHER, FAMILY AND COMMUNITY NOW
IN GRIEF.
RON CHARLES, CBC NEWS, TORONTO.
>> Ian: THAT LATE-NIGHT AMBER
ALERT ALSO LED TO HUNDREDS OF
911 CALLS, AND WE'RE NOT TALKING
ABOUT TIPS TO LOCATE THE
SUSPECT.
THE CALLS WERE TO LODGE
COMPLAINTS ABOUT BEING WOKEN UP
BY THE ALERT.
POLICE TWEETED, AS A RESULT OF
SOMEONE RECEIVING THE ALERT,
SOMEONE LOCATED HIS VEHICLE.
THE SYSTEM WORKS.
TONIGHT, WE SPOKE TO SOMEONE WHO
WAS DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THE
RESPONSE.
>> I'M A PARENT OF A YOUNG
DAUGHTER, AND I CAN'T BEGIN TO
IMAGINE WHAT THE FAMILY OF RIYA
IS GOING THROUGH.
SHORTLY AFTER WE PUT ON THE THE
AMBER ALERT, WE WERE THE MEDIA
OFFICERS LAST NIGHT.
WE FIELDED OVER A DOZEN PHONE
CALLS.
IT'S DISAPPOINTING.
IT'S A FIVE-MINUTE INCONVENIENCE
TO THEM THAT COULD HELP FIND
SOMEONE.
DESPITE THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS
THAT WE RECEIVED ON THE AMBER
ALERT SYSTEM COMING THROUGH TO
PEOPLE'S PHONES, WE HAVE -- FOR
EVERY ONE COMPLAINT, WE HAD
THREE POSITIVE COMMENTS FROM
PEOPLE THAT WERE APPRECIATIVE OF
THE AMBER ALERT.
>> Ian: SOME OF THE STORIES
WE'RE FOLLOWING TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL," HEALTH OFFICIALS HERE
IN VANCOUVER HAVE NOW IDENTIFIED
EIGHT CASES OF MEASLES LINKED TO
THREE FRENCH SCHOOLS AND ONE IN
PARTICULAR.
>> CASES ARE OCCURRING IN STAFF
AND -- IN STAFF, STUDENTS, AND
FAMILY MEMBERS AFFILIATED WITH
THIS SCHOOL.

VISITED THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT
OF B.C. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
WHILE THEY WERE INFECT RGSIOUS.
THEY SAY THE DISEASE WAS BROUGHT
IN THROUGH TRAVEL OUTSIDE OF
NORTH AMERICA.
>>> BRITISH NEWSPAPER THE DALY
MAIL SAYS SCOTLAND YARD IS

THE TIME BY THE GOVERNMENT OF
CANADA, AND THE COMPLAINT WAS
FOUND TO BE WITHOUT MERIT.

PARENT IN THE LAST DECADE,
CHANCES ARE YOU'VE EITHER READ
ONE OR WRITTEN ONE YOURSELF.
MOMMY BLOGS HAVE BECOME A
POPULAR WAY FOR NEW MOTHERS TO
SHARE THE JOYS AND FRUSTRATIONS
THAT COME WITH HAVING CHILDREN.
FOR SOME, IT'S ALSO BECOME A
LUCRATIVE JOB.
>> THE MOMMY SPACE IS REALLY BIG
WITH REGARDS TO ADVERTISERS.
THEY'RE LIKE FRIENDS TRYING TO
WORK WITH MOMS.
>> Ian: MOMMY BLOGGERS ARE A
MAJOR PART OF INFLUENCER
MARKETING WHERE BRAND-BASED
SOCIAL MEDIA PERSONALITIES TO
FEATURE THEIR PRODUCTS IN THEIR
POST.
BY 2020, RESEARCHERS SAY
COMPANIES WILL INVEST 5 TO $10
BILLION IN THE IDEA, BUT IT
COMES WITH THEIR OWN CHALLENGES.
>> Reporter: AT FIRST, ANA
SINCLAIR'S POSTS ABOUT BEING A
NEW MOM WAS A WAY TO CONNECT
WITH OTHER WOMAN.
THEN, SHE REALIZED THEY COULD BE
SOMETHING MORE.
AS THE NUMBER OF HER FOLLOWERS
GREW, COMPANIES STARTED SENDING
HER E-MAILS TO ADVERTISE THEIR
PRODUCTS ON HER PAGE.
>> I DIDN'T THINK THAT REGULAR
WOMEN GOT PAID TO DO THIS.
>> Reporter: BUT REGULAR MOMS
ARE A HUGE MARKET FOR COMPANIES,
WHICH IS WHY ADVERTISERS ARE
CONTINUING TO COURT MOMMY
BLOGGERS.
AN AVERAGE MOM INFLUENCER MAKES
50 TO $100 PER SPONSORED POST,
WHILE THE TOP BLOGGERS MAKE SIX
FIGURES PER YEAR.
>> THERE'S A HUGE CONNECTION
BETWEEN THE PERSONS FOLLOWING
THEM AND THE MOMMY BLOG
APPROXIMATORS.
THEY -- BLOGGERS.
THEY COME TO TRUST THIS PERSON
ON CHILD RAISING OR THE PRODUCTS
THEY SELL.
>> EVENTS LIKE THIS ONE SHOW
JUST HOW BIG THE MOM BLOGGER AND
INFLUENCE BUSINESS HAS BECOME.
THE TORONTO BLOG SHOW BRINGS
TOGETHER OVER 1,000 VENDORS AND
MOTHERS, MANY OF THEM BLOGGERS
THEMSELVES, BUT THE BUSINESS
COMES WITH THEIR OWN CHALLENGES.

CHILDRENS FOR YOUR MILLIONS OF
FOLLOWERS TO SEE CAN GET TRICKY.
>> THEY WANTED US TO GO ON
OUTINGS AND PAY PLAY GAMES AND
WORD GAMES IN THE CAR AND MY
CHILD HATES IT.
MY CHILD LOOKED AT ME AS WE WERE
GETTING IN THE CAR, AND SHE HAD
TEARS POOLING IN HER EYES, AND
SHE SAID PLEASE, MOM, DON'T MAKE
ME DO THIS.
>> Reporter: ARMSTRONG QUIT HER
BLOG AS A RESULT, SHE'S BACK N.
BUSINESS, BUT SHE RUNS ALL OF
HER BLOGS BY HER KIDS, WHO ARE
NOW NINE AND 15.
>> ACCORDING TO OUR RESEARCH,
THE MORE THAT THESE BLOGGERS
SHIFT FROM PROVIDING AN
EXPERIENCE FROM SHOWING THEIR
PERSONALITIES, SHARING THEIR
FAMILY MOMENTS TO PROMOTING
PRODUCTS, THAT LEVEL OF TRUST IS
STARTING TO DIMINISH.
>> THANK YOU, MAMA.

SHE TRIES TO WALK THE FINE LINE,
STAYING TRUE TO HER FOLLOWERS
AND HER CHILDREN.
>> WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT HOW THIS
IS THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED
TO US.
WE CAN STILL MAKE MONEY DOING
THIS BUT NOT HAVE TO BE GONE
AWAY FROM OUR KIDS ALL WAY.

IT'S A GOOD ONE.

>> WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I'M EVER
IN THE SITUATION OF AN ABUSIVE
COACH?

EVER FAIRLY INVESTIGATE
YOURSELVES IN CASES OF SEXUAL
MISCONDUCT.

KILLING AT LEAST FIVE PEOPLE.
POLICE RAN INSIDE THE BILLING.
THAT'S WHEN THE SHOOTOUT BEGAN.
THE GUNMAN, IDENTIFIED AS GARRY

AT THIS POINT, THEY DON'T KNOW
THE MOTIVE, BUT MARTIN WAS AN

>>> A CBC INVESTIGATION INTO
AMATEUR SPORT HAS BEEN FOLLOWED
TODAY BY A MESSAGE FROM THE
FEDERAL SPORTS MINISTER.
SHE'S PROMISING ACTION WHEN IT
COMES TO HARASSMENT, ABUSE, AND
DISCRIMINATION.
OUR EXPERT PANEL IS ABOUT TO
ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS, BUT
FIRST, NEWS ABOUT A PLEDGE FROM
POLITICIANS RIGHT ACROSS CANADA.
>> THIS IS A LONG-STANDING, NOT
TALKED ABOUT ISSUE IN SPORT, AND
I WANTED TO CHANGE THAT.
I WANT SPORT TO BE SAFE FOR
CHILDREN.
>> NOT MANY DETAILS HAVE BEEN
RELEASED.
WE DO KNOW IT INCLUDES
COMMITMENTS TO ELIMINATE
GENDER-BASED VIALS AGAINST WOMEN
AND GIRLS AND WORK ON CONCUSSION
PREVENTION AND AWARENESS.
>> ALL THIS WEEK WE'VE BROUGHT
YOU A JOINT INVESTIGATION BY CBC
NEWS AND CBC SPORTS BUT FOR THE
FIRST TIME THAT COUNTED SEXUAL
OFFENSE CONVICTIONS ACROSS ALL
SPORTS OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS.
THE FINDINGS?
HUNDREDS OF CASES DEEP.
AT LEAST 222 AMATEUR ATHLETIC
COACHES HAVE BEEN FOUND GUILTY.
MORE THAN 600 KIDS VICTIMS OF
THEIR OFFENSES.
OUR RINKS, GYMS, STADIUMS,
FIELDS, THEY ARE FAMILIAR PLACES
WHERE KIDS DEVELOP A SENSE OF
SELF-WHERE MANY PEOPLE VOLUNTEER
THEIR TIME AND WHERE OTHERS
BUILD CAREERS.
SO HOW DO WE KEEP THEM SAFE FOR
EVERYONE?
>> I'M TODD JACKSON, AND I KNOW
THE IMPORTANCE OF CREATING A
SAFE SPORTING ENVIRONMENT.
>> I'M LORRAINE LAFRENIERE.
I'M THE C.E.O.
COACHING ASSOCIATION OF CANADA.
>> I'M KARYN KENNEDY AND I
BELIEVE BY WORKING TOGETHER, WE
CAN FIGHT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE.
>> DAWN SMYTH.
>> Andrew: WE HAVE HAD SO MANY
QUESTIONS TO THESE STORIES, AND
YOU'RE SENDING THEM IN, SO LET'S
GET TO QUESTION NUMBER ONE.
>> MY NAME IS TARA, AND I'M THE
MOTHER OF A 17-YEAR-OLD HOCKEY
PLAYER.
THE QUESTION I HAVE FOR THE
PANEL IS HOW DO I TALK TO OUR
SON ABOUT SEXUAL ABUSE IN
SPORTS?
HOW DO WE EDUCATE HIM, AND WHAT
IS THE RIGHT PLACE TO ADDRESS
HIS CONCERNS.
>> Andrew: THAT IS A MULTIPART
QUESTION, AND KARYN, LET'S
ADDRESS THE FIRST PART.
TARA WANTS TO KNOW HOW TO TALK
TO HER SON ABOUT ABUSE.
>> SURE.
THERE'S THINGS LIKE IT'S YOUR
BODY, YOU GET TO SAY WHO TOUCHES
IT AND HOW.
YOU'VE GOT TO TRUST YOUR
FEELINGS.
IF YOU FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE ABOUT
A SITUATION, TELL SOMEONE, AND
TELL SOMEONE YOU TRUST, AND KEEP
TELLING UNTIL THEY DO SOMETHING
ABOUT IT.
>> Andrew: YOU KNOW, IT'S HARD
TO SAY AS A BLANKET RULE, LIKE
GYMNASTICS, YOU DIDN'T SAY NO
TOUCHING.
IS THERE A HARD-AND-FAST RULE
YOU SHOULD TELL YOUR KIDS RIGHT
OUT OF THE GATE?
>> WELL, I THINK IT'S TOUCHING
SHOULD NEVER BE A SECRET.
IF IT'S A TOUCH THAT YOU CAN'T
TALK ABOUT, THEN, THERE'S
SOMETHING WRONG.
>> Andrew: LORRAINE, THE OTHER
PART OF TARA'S QUESTION IS ABOUT
RED FLAGS, HOW TO SPOT THEM.
WHAT WOULD YOU TELLER?
>> ANYTHING THAT PUTS A YOUNG
PERSON ALONE WITH A COACH IS AN
ISOLATING EVENT, WHETHER IT'S ON
SOCIAL MEDIA, IN TEXTING, OR OFF
THE FIELD OF PLAY, IN THE LOCKER
ROOM, AND SO THAT'S WHAT PARENTS
SHOULD WATCH AND TALK WITH THEIR
CHILDREN ABOUT.
WE'RE GREAT AT THE FIELD OF
PLAY, BUT WE'VE GOT TO TALK
ABOUT THE CLUB HOST AND MAKE
SURE NO ONE IS EVER LEFT ALONE.
>> Andrew: TEXTING IS A SIDE OF
ISOLATION THAT PARENTS MAY NOT
THINK ABOUT.
TEXTING OR SOCIAL MEDIA, WOULD
YOU CONSIDER THAT --
>> ABSOLUTELY.
WE RECOMMEND NO ONE-ON-ONE
COMMUNICATION ON FACEBOOK, ON
TWITTER, ON MESSAGING.
REALLY, THERE SHOULD ALWAYS BE A
PERSON ON THE COPY LINE.
>> Andrew: TODD, WHEN YOU HEAR
THESE SORT OF SUGGESTIONS, ARE
THEY WRITTEN DOWN SORT OF
HARD-AND-FAST RULES IN THE
POLICY?
>> YOU KNOW, CERTAINLY, AS WE
HAVE BUILT OUR INFORMATION, WE
PUT TIPS IN.
WE ACTUALLY HAVE A PARENT GUIDE
ON OUR WEBSITE AT
HOCKEYCANADA.CA.
I THINK THERE ARE SOME ANSWERS
TO SOME OF THE QUESTIONS THAT
ARE ASKED HER.
WHAT ARE THE TYPES, WHERE DO I
GO.
>> Andrew: BUT THAT PUTS THE
ONUS ON PARENTS, THOUGH.
I'M THINKING ABOUT HARD POLICY
GUIDELINES THAT COACHES HAVE TO
FOLLOW: NO TEXTING, NO FOLLOWING
ON SOCIAL MEDIA, RULE OF TWO.
IF YOU HAVE A POWER
RELATIONSHIP, YOU SHOULD NOT BE
ALONE.
>> THERE ARE POLICIES COMING UP
ALL OVER THE COUNTRY WITH
RESPECT TO SOCIAL MEDIA, WITH
RESPECT TO DRESSING ROOM,
TWO-DEEP RULE.
THOSE ARE ALL REALLY IMPORTANT
STEPS, AND THAT EDUCATION PILLAR
IS SO, SO IMPORTANT IN GET THAT
GO TO THE COACH'S HANDS AND THAT
WAY SETTING THAT EXPECTATIONS.
>> Andrew: DAWN, I'M GOING TO
LET YOU JUMP IN HERE, BUT FIRST,
THERE IS ANOTHER QUESTION HERE
FROM TARA'S SON, STEVE.
>> HELLO.
I'M STEVE, AND I'M A 17-YEAR-OLD
HOCKEY PLAYER AND GOLFER.
MY QUESTION IS WHAT SHOULD I DO
IF I'M EVER IN THE SITUATION OF
AN ABUSIVE COACH, AND WHAT
SHOULD I DO TO FOLLOW UP THE
SCENARIO.
>> Andrew: YOU CAN SPEAK FROM
CANADA BASKETBALL'S POINT OF
VIEW.
WHAT IS THE RULE IN PLACE WHEN
AN ATHLETE ENCOUNTERS A
SITUATION THAT HE OR SHE FEELS
IS INAPPROPRIATE OR ABUSIVE?
>> YEAH.
I THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT
FOR THEM TO GET INTO ACTION
RIGHT AWAY, TRUSTING FEELINGS,
TRUST THEIR GUT, AND GET
REPORTING.
>> Andrew: REPORTING TO WHOM?
>> ANYONE FROM THE PARENTS, FROM
THE CLUB ASSOCIATION.
I MEAN, FROM CANADA BASKETBALL'S
PER SPECTIVE, CANADA
BASKETBALL'S ALWAYS THERE FOR
OUR MEMBERS, AND IF THEY NEED TO
TURN TO ANYONE, THEY CAN
ABSOLUTELY TURN TO US AS WELL AS
OUR PROVINCIAL AND TERRITORIAL
ORGANIZATIONS.
BUT I THINK THE FIRST STEP IS TO
ACTUALLY JUST GET IN CONTACT.
>> Andrew: THERE'S ANOTHER
QUESTION THAT WE'VE GOT, AND IT
VERY MUCH RELATES TO THE PROCESS
THAT UNFOLDS.
HAVE A LISTEN.
>> MY NAME IS KYRA, AND I'M A
FORMER PROFESSIONAL SOCCER
PLAYER FROM VANCOUVER.
MY QUESTION IS DIRECTED TO THE
M.S.O.s, AND IT'S DO YOU THINK
THAT YOU ARE ABLE TO FAIRLY
INVESTIGATE YOURSELVES IN CASES
OF SEXUAL MISCONDUCT BY YOUR
MEMBERS WITHOUT THERE BEING SOME
KIND OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST,
AND DO YOU EVEN THINK THAT IT'S
FAIR THAT THE ONUS SHOULD BE ON
YOU TO DO SO.
>> Andrew: DAWN, MAYBE YOU CAN
START US OFF ON THAT ONE, THIS
IDEA OF AFFORDING' INTERNALLY.
>> I THINK WE HAVE POLICIES IN
PLACE.
IT'S ON OUR WEBSITE,
BASEBALLCANADA.CA.
IT'S NOT DONE WITHIN THE
FULL-TIME STAFF OR ANYONE WHO'S
AROUND THAT COACH, IT'S BEING
PUT TO A COMMITTEE THAT'S
OUTSIDE OF THE N.S.O., SO IT'S
VERY FAIR AND ARBITRARY TO DEAL
WITH IT.
>> Andrew: THIS IS A COMMITTEE
THAT'S APPOINTED BY WHOM?
THERE CAN STILL BE A CONFLICT
THERE.
>> YEAH.
WE -- THE INTENTION IS TO HAVE
NO CONFLICT.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, WE DO NOT
WANT THIS FOR OUR ATHLETES.
>> SORRY.
JUST TO JUMP IN, IT'S ACTUALLIY
SIMPLER THAN THAT.
ANY ALLEGATION OF SEXUAL ABUSE
OF A CHILD 18 OR UNDER HAS TO BE
REPORTED TO THE AUTHORITIES.
SO BEFORE IT GETS TO THAT POINT,
IT'S JUST TELL SOMEBODY YOU
TRUST, GET THAT PERSON TO DO
SOMETHING.
MAKE THAT CALL TO A CHILD
PROTECTION AGENCY OR POLICE, AND
THEN, DEPENDING ON WHAT THE
OUTCOME IS, THEN, YOUR PROCESS
COMES IN, BUT THE VERY FIRST
STEP IS MAKING THAT CALL TO
REPORT IT.
>> Andrew: LORRAINE, JUST ON THE
QUESTION.
OUGHT THERE TO BE A THIRD-PARTY
ENTITY THAT IS ALWAYS IN PLACE
TO ADDRESS THESE SORTS OF
COMPLAINTS?
>> YES, ABSOLUTELY, WE DO NEED
INDEPENDENCE BECAUSE PEOPLE FEAR
RETRIBUTION, WHETHER REAL OR
PERCEIVED.
A HELP LINE, WHETHER IT'S KIDS
AID OR CHILDREN'S AID, IT'S
IMPORTANT TO HELP THE SYSTEM
STAY TRANSPARENT AND
ACCOUNTABLE.
I DO THINK THESE INTERNAL
MECHANISMS ARE ALSO IMPORTANT
BECAUSE IT HELPS THE
ORGANIZATION TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT'S GOING ON, GET A BASELINE,
AND IF THEY DEAL WITH IT
EFFECTIVELY, THEY GET TO CORRECT
THE BEHAVIOUR AND FIX THE
SITUATION SO THEY ELIMINATE IT
FROM THEIR SPORT.
SO IT'S A BALANCE OF BOTH.
>> Andrew: BUT WHO PAYS FOR ALL
OF THAT TO SETUP A WHOLE
INFRASTRUCTURE AROUND THAT?
>> I THINK THAT IS WHAT THE
SYSTEM IS CURRENTLY WRESTLING
WITH COMPLETELY.
WE DO HAVE SOME ASSOCIATIONS IN
CANADA, AND MANITOBA IN PLACE.
WE HAVE A KIDS HELP PHONE, SO WE
CONTRIBUTE TO THAT ORGANIZATION
IN EXCHANGE FOR SUPPORT.
THERE ARE SO MANY EXISTING
AGENCIES, CHILD WELFARE, CHILD
SUPPORT AGENCIES THAT WE CAN
PARTNER WITH THESE PEOPLE, BUT
THERE IS A GAP IN THE SYSTEM,
AND WE DO NEED TO ADDRESS IT.
>> Andrew: SO ANY TIME YOU HAVE
A SORT OF POWER RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN A COACH AND AN ATHLETE,
ANY TIME YOU RAISE AN ISSUE, NO
MATTER HOW YOU RAISE IT, IT CAN
FEEL LIKE YOU'RE -- YOU'RE
JEOPARDIZING EVERYTHING YOU
INVESTED, EVERYTHING THAT YOU --
ALL THE WORK THAT YOU'VE PUT
INTO IT, THAT YOU PAY COMPROMISE
THE RELATIONSHIP SOMEHOW BY
RAISING AN ISSUE, AND THE LESS
EGREGIOUS THE OFFENSE BECOMES,
THE HARDER THE QUESTION IS.
AN ATHLETE HAS TO ASK THIS
POSSIBLE QUESTION OF THEMSELVES,
IS THIS WORTH RAISING?
>> ANY GOOD COACH WANTS TO MAKE
SURE THAT THEIR ATHLETE PERFORMS
TO THEIR BEST ABILITY, AND IF
THEY'RE DOING SOMETHING THAT'S
MAKING AN ATHLETE UNCOMFORTABLE
OR NOT BEING ABLE TO PERFORM AT
LEVEL, ANY ETHICAL COACH WOULD
TAKE THAT INFORMATION AND MAKE
THOSE ADJUSTMENTS SO THAT THEIR
ATHLETE WOULD BE IN THE BEST
SITUATION FOR THEM TO PERFORM.
SO I DON'T THINK IT'S AN
EITHER-OR.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY I HAVE TO
BE UNCOMFORTABLE IN ORDER TO
STAY WITH THIS COACH OR IN THIS
CLUB OR IN A SITUATION.
THERE'S LOTS OF CAUSES.
WE'RE IN A BIG COUNTRY,
FORTUNATELY, AND YOU HAVE A LOT
OF CHOICES TO BE THERE, AND IT'S
NOT AN EITHER-OR.
>> Andrew: WE HAVE ANOTHER
QUESTION, COMING FROM JAY, ONE
OF THE COACHES.
>> HI.
I'M JAY, AND I'M A FATHER OF TWO
AND COACH IN MULTIPLE SPORTS.
EVERY YEAR, WE STRUGGLE FINDING
ENOUGH COACHES.
IT SEEMS IF YOU'RE BREATHING,
WE'LL TAKE YOU.
SO MY QUESTION IS, WHAT CAN WE
DO AT THE GRASSROOTS LEVEL TO
INCREASE MORE COACHES TO
INCREASE THE POOL OF PEOPLE THAT
WE'RE PULLING FROM SO MAYBE WE
DON'T HAVE TO KEEP THE COACHES
THAT WE'D PREFER NOT TO.
>> Andrew: SO THIS IS A REAL
REALITY QUESTION.
TODD, HOW DO YOU ENCOURAGE --
>> YOU KNOW, I THINK WE WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE BRINGING
COACHES IN AND WE'RE GIVING THEM
ALL THE TOOLS THEY NEED, ALL THE
RESOURCES THEY NEED TO BE GOOD
COACHES AND TO KNOW WHAT IS
CROSSING THE LINE AND WHAT IS
NOT CROSSING THE LINE.
>> Andrew: RIGHT.
LORRAINE, LET ME ASK YOU ABOUT
THAT.
DOES IT FEEL LIKE A SAFE
ENVIRONMENT FROM A COACHING PER
PERSPECTIVE, AND I WONDER IF
THERE'S AN ANXIETY FROM COACHES
IN THE ERA WE'RE IN COMPARED TO
20 YEARS AGO.
>> THERE IS AN ANXIETY FOR
CERTAIN, AND I THINK WHAT MAKES
GREAT COACHES EVEN GREATER IS
WHEN THEY EMBRACE IT AND BE
TRANSPARENT ABOUT HOW THEY'RE
WORKING IN A SAFE SPORTING
ENVIRONMENT.
SO THE RECOMMENDATION I HAVE FOR
COACHES IS DON'T SHY AWAY.
BE VERY PUBLIC IN YOUR
CONVERSATION.
WALK-THROUGH THE RULES WITH
PARTICIPANTS AND PARENTS.
TALK ABOUT WHAT THEY SHOULD BE
EXPECTING IN THE CLUBHOUSE, IN
THE TRAINING GROUND, ON THE AWAY
GAMES, AND MAKE EVERYONE
UNDERSTAND IT.
GREAT COACHES BECOME EVEN
GREATER WHEN THEY SHARE IN THIS
TYPE OF CHALLENGE TO MAKE SPORT
BETTER.
>> Andrew: WE HAVE ONE MORE
QUESTION THAT WE WANT TO GET TO.
THIS IS FROM SHAMIR.
>> HELLO.
MY NAME IS SHAMIR.
I'M A COACH AND DIRECTOR OVER AT
KANATA BASKETBALL YOUTH
ASSOCIATION.
WE SERVE APPROXIMATELY 1,000
KIDS IN KANATA AND NEIGHBOURING
AREA.
I'M ALSO A FATHER OF TWO BOYS,
AGE NINE AND 11.
HOW DO WE AS SMALLER
ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE RUN
ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY BY
VOLUNTEERS, HOW DO WE ASSESS
WHERE WE STAND WITH REGARDS TO
PROTECTING OUR YOUTH AND WHERE
THE GAPS EXIST?
>> Andrew: SO GETTING IT RIGHT
DOWN, RIGHT, TO THE CLUB LEVEL
AND OFFERING THEM THE SUPPORT
THAT THEY NEED, DAWN?
>> YEAH.
I MEAN, WE'VE GOT A COUPLE
DIFFERENT THINGS.
I THINK FIRST IS, YOU KNOW, WE
HAVE, AS I SAY, CLUB EXCELLENCE.
IT'S A STANDARD THAT WE HAVE ON
OUR WEBSITE, AGAIN,
BASKETBALL.CA, AND WE TALK ABOUT
WHAT ARE SOME OF THOSE STANDARDS
TO BECOME AN EXCELLENT CLUB.
KNOWING THAT THERE ARE DIFFERENT
CLUBS AROUND THE COUNTRY AND
DIFFERENT RESOURCES, THEY HAVE
SOMETHING THEY CAN MEASURE
THEMSELVES AGAIN.
>> Andrew: IS THERE MORE,
THOUGH?
YOU THINK OF PUBLISHING POLICIES
AND GUIDELINES AND RULES AND
SUGGESTIONS ON WEBSITES.
SOMETIMES THAT 'S WHERE THEY
STAY.
>> FIRST, WE'VE GOT TO PROVIDE
COMMUNITY-USED TOOLS.
I'LL START WITH EDUCATION.
WE STARTED WITH AN INCLASS
SCENARIO 15 YEARS AGO.
WE MOVED ON-LINE AND NOW WE'RE
SEEING THAT GROW IN OUR CULTURE.
IT'S PART OF EVERYDAY BUSINESS.
I THINK IT TAKES TIME, IT TAKES
PATIENCE AND NOT TO WAIT TILL
IT'S PERFECT TO PUT SOMETHING IN
PLACE.
>> Andrew: WHAT ABOUT MANDATING
CLUBS TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY
FOLLOW BEST PRACTICES AND BEST
GUIDELINES AND FOR THERE TO BE
CONSEQUENCES IF THEY DON'T?
>> WELL, I THINK SOME SPORT
ORGANIZATIONS HAVE DONE THAT AND
WE'RE SEEING GOVERNMENTS
SHIFTING TO MAKE SURE JUST LIKE
THEY DO WITH CONCUSSION POLICIES
THAT THEY HAVE SAFE SPORT
POLICIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
ONE THING I MIGHT ADD HERE IS
CLUBS NEED TO THINK ABOUT IT AS
NOT A PASS-FAIL.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT UNVAILING,
IT'S NOT I'M IMPROVING.
SAFETY'S NOT AN ENDPOINT, IT'S A
JOURNEY.
TO KEEP THAT CONVERSATION ALIVE
AND THAT'S A POINT TO GETTING
BETTER AS A CLUB.
>> KAREN, TODD, DAWN, LORRAINE,
A LOT TO GET THROUGH IN A
RELATIVELY SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME,
BUT THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU.
>> THANKS FOR TALKING ABOUT IT.
>> Ian: AND NEXT ON "THE
NATIONAL," 14 FAMILIES SPENT THE
DAY SCRAMBLING TO GET OUT OF
THEIR HOUSES.
THEIR HOMES ON B.C.'S SUNSHINE
COAST UNDER THREAT OF SINKHOLES.
>> WE WALKED AROUND THE FIRST
TWO DAYS IN SHOCK, DEPRESSED,
JUST NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO.
IT'S BEEN BRUTAL.
>> Ian: SO
>> Ian: MILLION-DOLLAR DREAM
HOMES WITH EXPANSIVE VIEWS OF
B.C.'S COAST, FAMILIES ARE
FORCED TO PACK UP AND GET OUT.
IT'S IN THE COMMUNITY OF
SECHELT, A COMMUNITY AQQIARCCESSIBLE
BY FERRY.
THERE'S NO NEWS IF THE FAMILIES
WILL EVER BE ABLE TO RETURN OR
WHO'S GOING TO BEAR THE COST.
>> Reporter: THE REMAINS OF AN
IDYLLIC RETIREMENT, AABANDONED.
THE REST CARTED OFF INTO AN
UNCERTAIN FUTURE.
>> IT'S CRUEL, IT'S -- DID NOT
NEED TO BE PUT OUT THIS WAY.
>> Reporter: DONNA AND ROD GOY
ARE ONE OF 14 FAMILIES FORCED
OUT OF THEIR HOMES.
>> WE WORKED HARD TO GET THIS
DREAM HOME, AND WE -- YOU KNOW,
WE PUT EVERYTHING, ALL OUR MONEY
IS HERE.
EVERYTHING IS INVESTED IN OUR
HOME.
>> Reporter: AFTER YEARS OF
PROBLEMS, TODAY, THE AREA WAS
SEALED SHUT.
>> THEY MADE THE DECISION THIS
TIME TO CLOSE THIS NEIGHBORHOOD
DOWN.
THEY GAVE ALMOST ZERO
NOTIFICATION, AND THEY DID IT
DURING PROBABLY THE WORST
WEATHER THAT WE COULD HAVE EVER
IMAGINED TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH
THIS.
>> Reporter: THIS DRONE VIDEO
SHOT BY ONE OF THE RESIDENTS
SHOWS WHAT'S AT STAKE.
14 LUXURY HOMES ONCE VALUED IN
THE MILLIONS NOW NEXT TO
WORTHLESS.
THE PROBLEM, SINKHOLES LIKE THIS
ONE HAVE BECOME MORE FREQUENT AS
UNDERGROUNDWATER SEAT
UNDERGROUNDWATER EATS AWAY AT
THE SOIL UNDER THE HOUSES.
>> THE PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE FOR
THIS ARE THE DISTRICT, THE
DEVELOPER, THE PROVINCIAL
GOVERNMENT.
>> Reporter: ENGINEERS SAY A FIX
COULD COST MORE THAN THE TOWN'S
ENTIRE YEARLY BUDGET OF $12
MILLION.
>> WHO'S RESPONSIBLE?
>> THAT HASN'T BEEN DETERMINED
YET, AND I THINK, YOU KNOW,
TODAY HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON -- AND
LAST WEEK HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON
MAKING SURE THE RESIDENTS ARE
SAVE.
>> PHYSICALLY, WE'RE GOING TO A
500 SQUARE FEET CABIN.
>> Reporter: FOR NOW, THIS
FAMILY HAS TO GRAPPLE MOVING,
UPSET THEIR SON COULDN'T GET ALL
OF HIS BELONGINGS BEFORE THEY
WERE SHUT OUT.
>> IT'S JUST UNBELIEVABLE.
>> Reporter: IT'S UNCLEAR IF
THEIR HOME INSURANCE WILL COVER
ANY OF THIS.
>> WE'RE LEAVING HERE IN
DISGRACE, AND WE DID NOTHING
WRONG.
WE BOUGHT A HOUSE IN A
SUBDIVISION THAT WAS APPROVED BY
THE DISTRICT OF SECHELT.
>> Reporter: FOR NOW, THEY
SIMPLY HAVE TO WALK AWAY WITH
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THIS MESS
APPARENTLY A LONG WAY OFF.
GREG RASMUSSEN, CBC NEWS,
SECHELT, B.C.
>> Ian: OUR MOMENT IS NEXT, AND
IT'S A MOMENT ONE YOUNG LEAFS
FAN WILL NEVER FORGET.
WE WILL SHOW YOU THE
SCRAPBOOK-WORTHY SNAP NEXT.
>>> BUT FIRST, WE WANT TO SHOW
YOU A BIT OF SOMETHING WE HAVE
FOR YOU ON SUNDAY NIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL."
LANCE STROLL IS THE ONLY
CANADIAN ON THE F-1 CIRCUIT AND
HE'S HEADING FOR HIS NEXT SEASON
ON THE TRACK.
WE SAT DOWN WITH THE YOUNG RACER
TO TALK ABOUT HIS NEW CAR, WHAT
COMES NEXT, AND DISTINGUISHING
HIMSELF FROM HIS FAMOUS FATHER.
>> YOU HAVE TO ALMOST PUSH AWAY
A LITTLE BIT.
YOU HAVE TO DISASSOCIATE
YOURSELF FROM YOUR DAD TO KIND
OF TELL PEOPLE NO, I EARNED MY
SPOT.
>> THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF
CRITICISM FROM THE OUTSIDE.
I TRY AND LOOK AT EVERYTHING
WITH A -- YOU KNOW, WITH A --
WITH A SMILE ON MY FACE, BUT MY
DAD'S HELPED ME SO MUCH ON THE
WAY WITH WHAT'S IMPORTANT, WITH
THE JOURNEY, CANADA, EUROPE, SO
I'M EXTREMELY GRATEFUL,
THANKFUL, AND I KNOW I'M VERY
FORTUNATE TO BE IN THE POSITION
THAT I'M IN.
>> Andrew: DO YOU FEEL LIKE THE
CRITICISM IS UNFAIR?
>> I FEEL THAT EVERYONE HAS AN
OPIN
>> Ian: LAST NIGHT IN LAS VEGAS,
ONE ONTARIO FAMILY GOT MORE THAN
AN EXCITING MATCH, THEY GOT A
MEMORY THAT WILL LAST A LONG
TIME.
EVER WONDER IF PLAYERS NOTICE
FANS IN THE STANDS?
IT'S CLEAR THAT MITCH MARNER
DID.
HIS TOUCHING VALENTINE'S DAY
ENCOUNTER WITH A YOUNG FAN IS
TONIGHT'S MOMENT.
SHE HAD ONE SIMPLE BUT BOLD
REQUEST, MITCH, BE MY VALENTINE.
MAYBE A FIST BUMP, A PUCK.
GUESS WHAT?
>> WELL, THE ANSWER IS YES.
NOT ONLY DID MARNER FLIP HER A
PUCK, BUT TALKED TO HER THROUGH
THE GLASS, TELLING HER TO TURN
AROUND TO TAKE A SELFIE.
>> I SAW THE SIGN AND IT WAS
PRETTY COOL.
>> Ian: BECAUSE IT WAS
VALENTINE'S, THE LEAGUE SET THE
WHOLE THING TO MUSIC ON THE
YouTube CHANNEL.
SHE AND HER FAMILY WERE OVER THE
MOON AND PROMISED TO BE AT THE
LEAFS GAME IN ARIZONA TOMORROW.
YOU WANT UNDULL TRAITED JOY, IT
WAS HER AFTER THAT SELFIE.
I KNOW SO MANY PEOPLE TALK ABOUT
THEIR ENCOUNTERS WITH THEIR
SPORTS IDOLS WHEN THEY WERE
LITTLE AND HOW THAT CEMENTS
THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO THE TEAM
AND THE STAR FOR THEIR WHOLE
LIFE.
FOR ME, IT WAS KEN DRYDEN, GRADE
8.
ONLY TIME IN MY LIFE I WAS
SPEECHLESS.
MADE ME A LIFETIME HABS FAN.
AND FOR SURE, SHE IS A LIFETIME
LEAF FAN.
THAT IS FRIDAY FEBRUARY 15TH.
GOOD NIGHT.
