GROWING ANTIRACIST MOVEMENT.
>> NHL PLAYERS JOIN OTHER SPORTS

RESPONDED --
>> Reporter: IT WAS SUPPOSED
TO BE THE BIGGEST CANUCKS GAME
IN YEARS, GAME 3 IN THE SECOND
ROUND OF THE STANLEY CUP
PLAYOFFS, POSTPONED FOR A BIGGER

>> I THINK IT WAS A REALLY
IMPORTANT DECISION AND I THINK
IT WAS THE RIGHT DECISION TO
MAKE.
WE NEEDED TO DO SOMETHING AND
MAKE A STAND.
>> Reporter: ALL EIGHT
REMAINING NHL TEAMS BOYCOTTING
THE ICE FOR TWO DAYS AFTER THE
SHOOTING OF JACOB BLAKE, A BLACK
MAN BY WISCONSIN POLICE.
RIVALS ON THE RINK STANDING IN
SOLIDARITY AGAINST RACISM.
>> WE WEEKEND OVER TO VEGAS AND
MET AS A GROUP THERE.
I GO TO WAR WITH THESE GUYS, I
HATE THEIR GETS ON ICE BUT I
COULDN'T BE MORE PROUD OF THESE
GUYS.
>> Reporter: THE SPORTS
CANCELLATIONS STARTED WEDNESDAY,
THE NBA'S MILWAUKEE BUCKS THE
FIRST BOYCOTT.
THAT NIGHT THE NHL DECIDED TO
PLAY ON, A MOVE THAT DREW
WIDESPREAD CRITICISM, EVEN
WITHIN THE LEAGUE.
>> I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BE
HERE.
I THINK THE NHL SHOULD POSTPONE
THE GAMES.
I REALLY FEEL THAT WEBER BE MORE
SUPPORTIVE OF BLACK LIVES
MATTER.
>> Reporter: VANCOUVER BORN
EVANDER KANE WAS AMONG THE
LOUDEST VOICES CALLING FOR
HOCKEY TO BE POSTPONED.
>> IT'S NOT JUST MY
RESPONSIBILITY AS A MINORITY
PLAYER NAT MAIL TO BE TALKING
ABOUT THESE ISSUES.
>> Reporter: THIS MORNING, AN
EMERGED C MEETING BETWEEN
PLAYERS, THE CANUCKS TAKING A
FIRM STANCE AGAINST PLAYING.
>> I'M PROUD TO SAY AS A
VANCOUVER CANUCKS FAN TODAY, THE
VANCOUVER CANUCKS WERE THE ONES
FIGHTING TO MAKE THAT STAND.
>> Reporter: DIEHARD FANS LIKE
TESH DHALIWAL AND RYAN CAT WALL
SAY THE MESSAGE MEANS A LOT MORE
THAN A HOCKEY GAME.
>> KIDS MAY SEE WHAT'S GOING ON
AT THE NHL AND NBA LEVEL AND
RECOGNIZE THESE ARE REAL ISSUES
THEY NEED TO SPEAK UP ABOUT.
>> Reporter: THE PLAYOFFS WILL
RESUME SATURDAY.
UNTIL THEN, TIME TO REFLECT AND
STAND TOGETHER.
>> I WOULD ENCOURAGE ANYBODY WHO
WAS PLANNING ON WATCHING THE
CANUCKS GAME DO NOT, IF THEY DO
POSTPONE THE SEASON, USE THAT
TWO OR THREE HOURS TO EDUCATE
YOURSELF.
>> CANUCKS WITH THE LEAD, GOLDEN
ICE HAS BEEN PRESSING.
>> Reporter: JON HERNANDEZ,
CBC NEWS, VANCOUVER.
>> Lien: HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE
REPORTING 68 NEW CASES OF
COVID-19 TODAY, THE THIRD
STRAIGHT DAY WITH FEWER THAN 70.
THERE HAS BEEN ONE NEW DEATH
THOUGH IN THE PAST 24 HOURS.
B.C.'S TOTAL NOW STANDS AT 204.
ACTIVE CASES ARE SLIGHTLY UP
AGAIN TO 906, AND OVER 2800
PEOPLE ARE NOW UNDER PUBLIC
HEALTH MONITORING.
22 PEOPLE ARE IN HOSPITAL, SEVEN
OF THEM IN INTENSIVE CARE.
>> Mike: AND WE ARE NOW
GETTING AN EVEN CLOSER LOOK AT
WHERE COVID-19 IS APPEARING IN
OUR PROVINCE.
Dr. BONNIE HENRY UNVEILED A
MAP SHOWING SPECIFIC COVID CASE
NUMBERS IN CITIES AND REGIONS.
>> THAT'S RIGHT, SHE ALSO WARNED
ABOUT ANOTHER CONDITION
AFFECTING CHILDREN AND
ADOLESCENTS.
DAN BURRITT JOINS US LIVE NOW
WITH MORE ON BOTH OF THOSE.
SO, DAN, FIRST OF ALL, WHERE ARE
WE SEEING COVID-19 IN B.C.?
>> VIRTUALLY EVERYWHERE.
DR. HENRY SAYS THERE'S NO PLACE
INSIDE OUR PROVINCE THAT HASN'T
BEEN TOUCHED BY THIS DISEASE AND
NOW WE KNOW SPECIFIC NUMBERS PER
POPULATION.
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS MAP.
THIS SHOWS WHERE COVID-19 IS BY
WHAT ARE CALLED LOCAL HEALTH
AREAS, THEY MAY BE REGIONS OR
SPECIFIC CITIES.
FOR EXAMPLE, HAIDA GWAII IN
PURPLE HAS THE HIGHEST PER
CAPITA CASE COUNT, CASES
COMPARED TO ITS POPULATION.
SEVERAL REGIONS IN THE NORTH IN
WHITE SHOW NO CASES.
HERE'S ANOTHER MAP SHOWING
GREATER VANCOUVER.
THIS SHOWS THE TOTAL NUMBER OF
COVID-19 CASES IN EACH OF THOSE
LOCAL HEALTH AREAS S SURREY IS
THE HIGHEST AT 521, ABBOTSFORD
IN SECOND WITH 454, AND
VANCOUVER SOUTH IS THIRD WITH
211 S DELTA AND RICHMOND HAVE
TWO OF THE LOWEST OR HAVE THE
TWO LOWEST PER CAPITA CASES OF
THE ADVISOR.
DR. HENRY SAYS THEY'RE RELEASING
THIS DATA NOW BECAUSE WE HAVE
ENOUGH CASES OF THE DISEASE SO
THAT INDIVIDUALS CAN'T BE
IDENTIFIED IN SPECIFIC AREAS.
THE NUMBERS WERE LOWER, SHE SAYS
THERE WAS A BETTER CHANCE
SOMEONE COULD BE IDENTIFIED.
DR. HENRY ALSO REPORTED EIGHT
SUSPECTED CASES OF WHAT THEY'RE
CALLING MISC, MULTISYSTEM
POLICEMAN TORY SYNDROME IN
CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS.
SHE SAYS THEY'RE REPORTING THIS
NOW BECAUSE MISC HAS BEEN LINKED
TO COVID IN SOME PARTS OF THE
WORLD.
>> PROLONGED FEVER THAT LASTS
FOR MANY DAYS, RED EYES, SKIN
RASH, BELLY PAIN, ABDOMINAL
PAIN, VOMITING OR DIARRHEA AND
FEELING WIPED OUT AND TIRED,
VERY TIRED.
BUT IT TENDS TO BE A
CONSTELLATION OF THINGS AND FOR
SOME CHILDREN IT CAN SPREAD TO
CAUSING AN INFLAMMATION OF THE
BLOOD VESSELS AND PART OF THAT
CAN BE A RASH, RED EYES, BUT
PART OF IT CAN ALSO AFFECT THE
BLOOD VESSELS OF THE HEART.
>> Lien: DAN, SPEAKING OF
KIDS, WE KNOW THEM AND A LOT OF
THEIR FAMILIES ARE STILL ANXIOUS
ABOUT GOING BACK TO SCHOOL AND
DR. HENRY WAS ASKED ABOUT
DELAYING THE RESTART.
WHO WAS HER RESPONSE?
>> NO.
SHE SAYS IT'S IMPORTANT FOR KIDS
TO GET INTO SCHOOL IN CEMENT.
SHE ARGUING DELAYING THAT IN
CASE THERE'S A PRIMARY UP AFTER
THE LABOUR DAY WEEKEND SHOULD
DELAY WORRY.
SHE DOESN'T EXPECT A SURGE IN
CASES WHEN STUDENTS RETURN,
EITHER.
>> NOW'S THE TIME WHEN WE HAVE
TO START THINKING OF THE
ROUTINES THAT ARE GOING TO MAKE
IT WORK FOR OUR FAMILIES, OUR
SCHOOL COMMUNITY, OUR CHILDREN.
WE NEED TO NOT PROLONG THE
ANXIETY.
WE NEED TO GET KIDS USED TO THE
IDEA THAT YEAH, I'M GOING BACK
TO SCHOOL, BUT I CAN'T HUG MY
FRIENDS THIS YEAR.
IT'S GOING TO BE A NEW SCHOOL
THIS YEAR.
AND THE FIRST COUPLE OF WEEKS
WILL BE ALL OF US LEARNING THAT.
>> THERE WILL BE IN-CLASS
INSTRUCTION AND ONLINE LEARNING,
AND MANY PARENTS ARE ASKING FOR
BOTH OR FULL ONLINE LEARNING AS
THEY'RE STILL WORRIED ABOUT
SENDING THEIR KIDS BACK.
LIEN, MIKE?
>> Michael: BACK TO SCHOOL IS
OFTEN A TIME OF ANXIETY AND
EXECUTION FOR STUDENTS.
>> THIS YEAR, IN COVID-19, MANY
TEACHES ARE HEADING BACK WITH
APPREHENSION.
WITH SCHOOL DISTRICTS FINALIZED
THERE ARE STILL QUESTIONS ABOUT
SCHOOLS REOPENING.
>> AS BELLE PURI REPORTS, THERE
IS NO TEXTBOOK FOR TEACHING
DURING A PANDEMIC.
>> Reporter: BACK TO SCHOOL IS
JUST AROUND THE CORNER, BUT EVEN
EXPERIENCED TEACHERS DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO EXPECT IN SEPTEMBER.
>> IT CREATES A LOT OF
UNCERTAINTY AND ANXIETY.
>> Reporter: THE USUAL
CLASSROOM SETUP IS MORE ABOUT
WORRY OVER TEACHING DURING A
PANDEMIC.
>> WE STILL HAVE CONSIDERABLE
CONCERNS ABOUT VENTILATION IN
SCHOOLS.
WE HAVE SCHOOLS WHERE THEY CAN'T
OPEN WINDOWS.
WE HAVE CONSIDERABLE CONCERNS
ABOUT BEING ABLE TO PHYSICALLY
DISTANCE IN THE CLASSROOM.
>> Reporter: SOME HEALTH AND
SAFETY MODIFICATIONS ARE IN
PLACE, BUT ACCORDING TO
TEACHERS, THERE IS LITTLE
INFORMATION ABOUT RESOURCES,
SUPPORTS, AND IDEAS LIKE
TEACHING OUTSIDE.
>> IT'S NOT AS CIVIL AS JUST
TAKING WHAT YOU DO IN HERE AND
PUT IT OUTSIDE.
WE SIMPLY DON'T HAVE THE
INFRASTRUCTURE TO DO THAT.
IN ADDITION TO THAT, A LOT OF
THE RESOURCES WE HAVE IN THE
CLASSROOM AREN'T NECESSARILY TO
TAKE THEM OUTSIDE.
>> Reporter: GIVEN THE
UNPREDICTABILITY OF THE
PANDEMIC, EDUCATION OFFICIALS
FORESEE A FLUID TEACHING
ENVIRONMENT.
>> THAT'S WHY WE'LL CONTINUE
WORKING WITH SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO
STAY FLEXIBLE AND NIMBLE.
>> Reporter: THE 60 SCHOOL
DISTRICTS IN B.C. ARE USING
PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT GUIDELINES
TO DEVELOP THEIR OWN BACK TO
SCHOOL PLANS.
THE DETAILS OF THOSE PLANS WILL
VARY DISTRICT BY DISTRICT, BUT
THE CONCERNS OF TEACHERS ARE THE
AND THE STRESS IS EVIDENCE DENT.
CHRISTINE McMYNN NONE IS A
VANCOUVER TEACHER ON CALL.
>> IT'S EXTREMELY WORRISOME.
>> Reporter: 90% OF TOCS
HAVEN'T IN THE CLASSROOM SINCE
MID MARCH.
THEY'RE KEEN TO GET BACK TO WORK
BUT ONLY IF IT'S SAFE.
>> THE SOLUTION THAT WE SEE IT
IS POUR TEACHERS ON CALL TO BE
HIRED AND THEN RESTRICTED TO A
FEWER NUMBER OF SCHOOLS.
>> EVEN THAT WILL MEAN 
SACRIFICE.
>> MY PARTNER AND I HAVE BEEN
DISCUSSING WHETHER OR NOT HE'LL
STAY LIVING WITH ME OR GO
SOMEWHERE ELSE BECAUSE HE HAS
ELDERLY FAMILY MEMBERS HE
WOULDN'T BE ABLE SEE.
THERE ARE PEOPLE IN MY LIFE I'M
NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SEE
BECAUSE THEY'RE AT RISK OR THEY
ARE OLDER.
>> Reporter: THE UNKNOWNS,
TEACHERS SAY, HAVE ERASE THE
USUAL EXPECTATIONS OF A NEW
SCHOOL YEAR.
BELLE PURI, CBC NEWS, SURREY.
>> Lien: POLICE IN NEW
WESTMINSTER ARE LOOKING FOR
POSSIBLE SEXUAL ASSAULT VICTIMS.
>> IT COMES AFTER THEY ARRESTED
A MAN FOR ALLEGEDLY ASSAULTING A
WOMAN LAST MONTH DURING A
MASSAGE.
>> A MASSER IN HEALTH LAND
CLINIC IN NEW WESTMINSTER WAS
ARRESTED EARLIER THIS MONTH
AFTER ALLEGATIONS OF SEXUAL
ASSAULT WERE MADE AGAINST HIM IN
JULY.
HE'S SINCE BEEN RELEASED BUT
POLICE RECOMMENDED AT LEAST ONE
CHARGE OF SEXUAL ASSAULT.
NEW WESTMINSTER POLICE ARE ALSO
ASKING ANYONE WHO MAY HAVE COME
HERE TO HEALTHLAND CLINIC TO
COME FORWARD IF THEY FEEL THEY
MAY HAVE EXPERIENCED ANY
UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATION THEY
HAVEN'T SO FAR UNREPORTED.
>> IS IT MAY BE SOMETHING THAT
IT'S NOT AS OBVIOUS TO SOMEBODY
BUT THEY MIGHT BE RECEIVING A
MASSAGE AND SAY, HEY, THAT
DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT, THAT WAS
WRONG.
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM THEM TOO,
BECAUSE IT MAY HAVE BEEN A
SEXUAL ASSAULT.
>> Reporter: POLICE SAY THE
MAN WAS RELEASED ON THE
CONDITION HE DOESN'T RETURN TO
WORK AS A MASSER OR MASSAGE
PROVIDER OF ANY SORT RIGHT NOW.
AN EMPLOYEE WE REACHED BY PHONE
FROM THE NEW WESTMINSTER
LOCATION DOES SAY HE HAS NOTHING
TO TELL CBC NEWS AND THEN HE
HUNG UP.
A STAFFER AT THE CLINIC IN
SURREY ALSO DECLINED TO COMMENT.
IN JANUARY, SURREY R.C.M.P.
BROUGHT A SIMILAR STORY ABOUT
SEXUAL ASSAULT ALLEGATIONS TO
LIGHT ABOUT THE SECOND
HEALTHLAND CLINIC IN SURREY.
THIS WAS AFTER TWO PEOPLE
ALLEGED AN EMPLOYEE THERE
SEXUALLY ASSAULTED THEM WHILE
THEY RECEIVED A MASSAGE.
THE SUSPECT IN THE SURREY
CLINIC'S CASE HAS BEEN RELEASED
WITH CONDITIONS, WAITING FOR AN
UPCOMING COURT APPEARANCE.
>> WELL, SEXUAL ASSAULTS SHOULD
NEVER HAPPEN.
IT'S TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.
TO HAVE THESE ALLEGATIONS COMING
OUT OF MASSAGE THERAPY SESSIONS,
YOU KNOW, THAT'S REALLY
DISHEARTENING.
>> Reporter: WHILE THE MASSER
OVER IN HEALTHLAND CLINIC IN NEW
WESTMINSTER IS OUT, HE IS ON
CONDITIONS THAT HE DOESN'T
PRACTICE AS A MASSER OR MASSAGE
PROVIDER AT THE CLINIC OR
ANYWHERE ELSE.
POLICE ARE ALSO WANTING TO
REITERATE AND REMIND ANYONE ELSE
WHO MAY HAVE BEEN A VICTIM OF
SEXUAL ASSAULT, ESPECIALLY AT
THIS CLINIC, TO PLEASE COME
FORWARD.
THEY WANT TO REMIND PEOPLE THAT
THEY DO HAVE STAFF ON HAND READY
TO HANDLE THE SITUATION.
CZAR PREMISE, CBC NEWS, NEW
WESTMINSTER.
>> Lien: RICHMOND R.C.M.P. ARE
LOOKING FOR WITNESSES TO AN
UNPROVOKED ATTACK ON A TEAM WITH
OUGHT WHILE HE WAS ON A
BASKETBALL COURT.
THE ATTACK HAPPENED LAST FRIDAY
AT 7 P.M.
THIS PHOTO SHOWS A WOMAN RUSHING
TO THE VICTIM'S AID.
THE SUSPECT IS WEARING JEANS AND
A BLACK SHIRT.
THE 18-YEAR-OLD WAS PLAYING
BASKETBALL AT RICHMOND SECONDARY
SCHOOL WHEN ANOTHER TEEN
ALLEGEDLY PUNCHED HIM.
TWO WITNESSED CALLED POLICE BUT
THE ATTACKER HAD LEFT BY THE
TIME THEY ARRIVED.
HE WAS TREATED FOR CUTS TO HIS
FACE AND A CONCUSSION.
ANYONE WITH INFORMATION ON THE
ASSAULT IS ASKED TO CALL POLICE
OR CONTACT CRIME STOPPERS.
>> B.C. IS PUSHING AHEAD WITH A
MAJOR OVERHAUL OF ITS SYSTEM FOR
REGULATING HEALTH PROFESSIONALS,
BRINGING CHANGES THE PROVINCE
SAYS WILL LEAD TO BETTER, MORE
SAFER, MORE TRANSPARENT SERVICE.
A CROSS-PARTY COMMITTEE RELEASED
ITS FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS TODAY.
THE PLAN INCLUDES COLLAPSING THE
NUMBER OF REGULATORY COLLEGES
FROM 20 TO 6, CREATING A NEW
OVERSIGHT BODY TO ENSURE THE
COLLEGES ARE PERFORMING AS THEY
SHOULD, ELIMINATING ELECTIONS OF
COLLEGE BOARD MEMBERS, AND
MAKING THE COMPLAINT AND
DISCIPLINE PROCESS MORE
TRANSPARENT TO THE PUBLIC.
THE HEALTH MINISTER SAYS HE
EXPECTS THE CHANGE TO PUT B.C.
ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF CARE.
>> I WOULD ALSO EXPECT EVEN IN
ADVANCE OF LEGISLATION SOME
OTHER COLLEGES TO CONTINUE TO
AMALGAMATE SO WE CONTINUE TO HIT
THE GROUND RUNNING IN TERMS OF
MAKING THE SYSTEM MORE
EFFICIENT, MORE EFFECTIVE, AND
BETTER PROTECTIVE OF PATIENTS
AND REGULATED PROFESSIONALS
ALIKE.
>> Mike: HE SAYINGS THE
INTENTION IS FOR THE
RECOMMENDATIONS TO LEAD TO
LEGISLATIVE CHANGES NEXT SPRING
WITH SOME ACTION BEFORE THEN AS
WELL.
>> LET'S BRING IN CBC NEWS
REPORTER BETHANY LINDSAY.
SHE'S BEEN FOLLOWING THIS STORY
FROM THE VERY START AND HER
REPORTING HAS BEEN A BIG DRIVER
IN THE DEVELOPMENTS WE'RE
SEEING.
TODAY BETHANY, DOES THIS PLAN
ADDRESS THE ISSUES THAT YOU'VE
BEEN REPORTING ON?
>> FOR THE MOST PART, YES.
ONE OF THE BIGGEST ISSUES THAT
I'VE SEEN IN MY REPORTING IS THE
LACK OF TRANSPARENCY WHEN IT
COMES TO DISCIPLINE AND
COMPLAINTS TO THE COLLEGES.
NOW, AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW, THE
ONLY TIME DISCIPLINE IS MADE
PUBLIC IS WHEN IT IS DEEMED TO
BE A SERIOUS MATTER.
WHAT THAT MEANS IS A LOT OF
STUFF STAYS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS
AND THE PUBLIC NEVER FINDS OUT
ABOUT IT.
SO IN ONE CASE I REPORTED ON,
PARENTS REQUIRED A PSYCHOLOGIST
TO DO ASSESSMENTS IN THEIR CHILD
CUSTODY BATTLES.
BUT THEY DIDN'T KNOW THAT THAT
SAME PSYCHOLOGY HAD HAD PREVIOUS
DISCIPLINE FOR HIS WORK IN THE
SAME SORT OF CASES.
SO WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW, WITH
B.C.'S NEW PROPOSAL IS THAT ALL
DISCIPLINARY DECISIONS WILL BE
MADE PUBLIC, SO THAT PATIENTS
CAN MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS
ABOUT THEIR HEALTH CARE.
ANOTHER MAJOR QUESTION I HEAR A
LOT IS WHETHER THE COLLEGES ARE
ACTUALLY PUTTING THE PUBLIC
INTERESTS FIRST WHICH IS WHAT
THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO DO.
SO HOPEFULLY THIS NEW OVERSIGHT
BODY WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE SURE
THAT'S HAPPENING.
NOW, FINALLY I'M HEARING A LOT
OF HOPE ABOUT HOW REDUCING THE
NUMBER OF COLLEGES MIGHT
ACTUALLY MAKE IT EASIER FOR
PROFESSIONS THAT AREN'T
REGULATED TO BECOME REGULATED.
NOW, COUNCILLORS AND THERAPISTS
IN B.C. HAVE BEEN PUSHING FOR
THIS FOR 25 YEARS SAYING IT'S
CRUCIAL TO PROTECT PATIENT
SAFETY.
BUT THEY'VE HAD NO LUCK THIS
FAR.
NOW IT LOOKS LIKE IT CAN FINALLY
HAPPEN BUT OF COURSE WE DON'T
HAVE A TIMELINE WHEN THAT MIGHT
BE.
>> WE'LL KEEP WATCHING THAT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, BETHANY
LINDSAY REPORTING FOR US
TONIGHT.
>> THANKS, MIKE.
>> Lien: RESCUE TEAMS AND
VOLUNTEERS ARE PAUSING THEIR
SEARCH FOR ALI NAJIRI, A HIKER
LAST SEEN ON A HIKING TRAIL ON

DAYS AGO.
THEY'RE TAKING THE NEXT TWO DAYS
TO REST AND REASSESS THEIR
STRATEGY.
THE SEARCH FOR THE 52 YEARLY HAS
PLAYED OUT OVER SPRAWLING
TREACHEROUS MOUNTAIN TRAILS
WHICH R.C.M.P. SAY CAN CHALLENGE
EVEN THE MOST EXPERIENCED HIKER.
THE POLICE INVESTIGATION INTO

>> Mike: DOWNTOWN VICTORIA'S
STATUE OF ENGLISH SUPPORTER
CAPTAIN JAMES COOK HAS BEEN
VANDALIZED.
THIS MORNING CITY CREWS COULD BE
SEEN REMOVING THE RED PAINT ON
IT.
SINCE THE START OF THE BLACK
LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT MANY
STATUES OF EXPLORERS AND
CONFEDERATE LEADERS HAVE BEEN
TARGET.
CAPTAIN COOK'S STATUE IN
VICTORIA MARKS HIS ARRIVAL IN
THE INNER HARBOUR IN 1778.
COOK DIED IN 1779 IN AN ATTEMPT
TO KIDNAP AND RANSOM THE
SOVEREIGN KING OF HAWAII.
>>> DEMOLITION IS SCHEDULED TO
STARTth START THAT WEEK ON 46
TEMPORARY MODULAR HOMES IN
WHALLEY NEIGHBOURHOOD.
>> THE PLAN WAS TO MOVE MANY OF
THE RESIDENTS IN A NEW
SUPPORTIVE HOUSING FACILITY, BUT
THE PROJECT HAS BEEN DELAYED.
>> Lien: BUT AS JESSE JOHNSTON
REPORTS, YOU WON'T BELIEVE THE
REASON WHY.
>> THIS IS NICKERSON PLACE, A
CLUSTER OF TEMPORARY MODULAR
HOUSING THAT'S BEEN HOME TO
DOZENS FOR MORE THAN TWO YEARS.
BUT "TEMPORARY" IS THE OPERATIVE
WORE.
THE CITY'S LEASE WITH THE
PROPERTY EXPIRES TUESDAY SO THE
HOMES ARE BEING DEMOLISHED.
FORTUNATELY, THERE'S A PLAN.
MORE THAN 200 UNITS OF NEW
PERMANENT SUPPORTIVE HOUSING ARE
EITHER IN DEVELOPMENT OR UNDER
CONSTRUCTION IN SURREY,
INCLUDING THESE 38 UNITS ON KING
GEORGE BOULEVARD.
THE IDEA WAS TO MOVE MANY OF THE
DISPLACED RESIDENTS FROM
NICKERSON PLACE INTO THESE
HOMES.
BUT THEY'RE FOR THE FINISHED
YET.
>> THE CHALLENGE WE HAD WHICH IS
A LITTLE (INDISCERNIBLE)
FORTUNATELY WE HAD BIRDS NESTING
AT ONE OF THE LOCATIONS SO WE
DID GET STALLED BACK ON ONE OF
OUR HELPING PROJECTS.
BUT THAT'S GOING FULL STEAM
AHEAD NOW.
>> Reporter: CONSTRUCTION
CREWS COULDN'T START WORK UNTIL
THE BABY BIRDS WERE BORN,
PUSHING BACK THE COMPLETION DATE
BY ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF.
SO OUTREACH WORKERS STARTED
FINDING HOMES FOR PEOPLE.
>> THEY HAVE BEEN MOVING PEOPLE
TO OTHER PLACES, TO OTHER HOMES.
THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR QUITE A
FEW MONTHS NOW, PROBABLY THREE
MONTHS.
>> Reporter: SOME NICKERSON
PLACE RESIDENTS HAVE FOUND
PERMANENT HOMES, OTHERS WILL
STAY IN PERMANENT SPACES LIKE
SHELTERS UNTIL NEW HOUSING IS
BUILT.
>> THIS HOMELESS ADVOCATE IS
ENCOURAGED NEW SUPPORTIVE
HOUSING IS COMING, BECAUSE
SURREY NEEDS IT.
BADLY.
>> WE HAVE AN IMMEDIATE CRISIS,
RIGHT, WHERE WE'VE USED
EVERYTHING AVAILABLE TO MOVE
NICKERSON IN AND WE HAVEN'T
REALLY INCREASED THE NUMBER OF
SPACES AVAILABLE.
SO HOPEFULLY, YOU KNOW, SOON
WE'LL REMEDY THAT.
THESE HOMES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE
READY SOME TIME IN OCTOBER.
BUT AS CREWS LEARNED DURING
NESTING SEASON, ANYTHING CAN
HAPPEN.
JESSE JOHNSTON, CBC NEWS,
SURREY.
>> Mike: JOINED BY
NEITHERROLOGIST JOHANNA
WAGSTAFFE, AND I THOUGHT I SAW
SOME OF OUR FAIR WEATHER CUMULUS
OVER THE NORTH SHORE, BUT IT
SEEMS TO HAVE GONE AWAY NOW.
>> WELL NOTED, MIKE.
WE DID HAVE A SLIGHT ROUND OF
INTACT OVER THE MOUNTAINS BUT
CLEAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE S YES,
KEEP YOUR CUMULUS EYES PEELED
BECAUSE THINGS ARE CHANGING FOR
THE WEEKEND.
IT'S 19 OUT TOWARDS YYV, A
LITTLE COOLER TOWARDS THE
HARBOUR.
OVERNIGHTS HAVE BEEN SEASONAL AS
AND THAT WILL BE THE CONTINUED
STORY AS WE HEAD INTO THE
FORECAST.
WE HAVE A SYSTEM I'M WATCH FOR
THE WEEKEND THAT WILL BE A GAME
CHINGER.
I KNOW ALL EYES ARE ON THE
WEEKEND.
WE ONLY HAVE A FEW OF THEM LEFT
AS WE HEAD INTO THE END OF THE
SEASON.
BUT THE WEEKEND IS STILL LOOKING
PRETTY GOOD.
I'LL SEE IF I CAN TAKE YOU TOO
THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
DOWN TO 12 TONIGHT, KEENING THE
SKIES CLEAR, BACK UP TO 20
TOMORROW.
SO ALL BLUE SKIES FOR THE NEXT
24 HOURS.
BUT IT IS A CHILLY START TO YOUR
MORNING.
NOTICE EVEN AROUND 8 A.M. WE'RE
HANGING AROUND THE 15, 16º MARK,
WARMING UP QUICKLY, THOUGH, IN
THE SUNSHINE.
I'LL TAKE YOU THROUGH TO THE
QUESTIONABLE
WEEKEND...
COMING UP.
>> Mike: INTRIGUING,
QUESTIONABLE.
THANKS, JO.
>>> OKAY, THERE IS SOMETHING
SURPRISING LURKING IN A SAANICH
LAKE.
-UP.
JELLYFISH.
THE SLIMY TRANSPARENT CREATURES
NO BIGGER THAN A THUMBNAIL HAVE
BEEN SPOTTED IN A SMALL LAKE IN
MOUNT WORK REGIONAL PARK.
>> THE DISCOVER HAS MARINE
BIOLOGIES SCRATCHING THEIR HEADS
BECAUSE THE SPECIES CAME FROM
CHINA.
ADDING TO THE MYSTERY THE LAKE
IS NOT NEAR ANY PUBLIC ACCESS
POINTS, SO HOW DID THEY GET
THERE?
>> MAYBE IT TRAVELLED AS AN
UNWELCOME GUEST ON THE FEET OF
DUCKS OR MAYBE WITH SOME WATER
(INDISCERNIBLE) THEY WERE
TRANSFERRED FROM ONE LAKE TO
ANOTHER.
THERE IS NO DEFINITE ANSWER.
WE ACTUALLY DON'T REALLY KNOW.
>> Mike: OKAY, NO PUBLIC
ACCESS, THAT'S A MYSTERY.
THE GOOD NEWS FOR PEOPLE WHO MAY
END UP TRYING TO SWIM THERE,
BECAUSE PEOPLE SNEAK IN...
THESE PARTICULAR JELLYFISH DON'T
STING, THE NON-STINGING KIND.
>> IT'S GOOD AND THEY'RE TINY.
MAYBE IF THEY DO STING; ETCETERA
NOT SO BAD.
>> ALL THE WAY FROM CHINA.
>>> A REMINDER YOU CAN ALSO
WATCH THIS NEWSCAST LIVE ON THE
FREE CBC GEM APP.
>> AND CBC ENOUGH IS ON
FACEBOOK, YOUTUBE AND ENGRAMS.
>> THEY'RE NOT GOING TO LET A
HURRICANE AND THE BLACK LIVES
MATTER MOVEMENT PARTICULAR OVER
TRUMP'S
>> Mike: I THINK IT'S FAIR TO
SAY TIME OUTDOORS IS IMPORTANT,
ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN.
>> Lien: IT'S BEEN A BIG FOCUS
FOR ADVOCATES OF SCHOOLS,
ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS PANDEMIC
WON'T BE OVER ANYTIME SOON...
>> THE PINE PROJECT SUMMER CAMP
IS ALL ABOUT THE OUTDOORS,
TEACHING KIDS ABOUT NATURE TO
BUILD THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND
CONFIDENCE.
>> THINGS I WOULD NEVER KNOW
UNLESS I WENT HERE, THE ANIMALS
THAT ARE IN THE PARK, AND HOW TO
TAKE CARE OF THEM.
>> I REALLY HIKING, EXPLORING,
MAKING FIRES.
AND IS BEING OUT IN THE
WILDERNESS.
>> SOFTWOOD THAT'S EASY TO
CARVE, THEY CALL IT PROJECTS
WOOD, SO YOU USE THIS GOUGE AND
YOU JUST KIND OF LIKE SMOOTH IT
AND IT TAKES ALL THE WOOD OUT.
>> Reporter: NORMALLY THE NOT
FOR PROFIT RUNS ITS PROGRAMS
AFTER SCHOOL, OVER MARCH BREAK
AND IN THE SUMMER.
>> I'M MAKING A SPOON RIGHT NOW.
IT'S HARD, BUT IT'S REALLY FUN.
>> Reporter: COME FALL IT WILL
RUN EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK FOR
KIDS UP TO 10 BECAUSE OF DEMAND
FROM PARENTS WHO IS HESITANT
ABOUT SENDING THEIR KIDS TO
SCHL INDOORS.
>> A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN
CALLING, A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE
BEEN SAYING HEY, WE REALLY WANT,
YOU KNOW, AN OPTION TO SENDS OUR
KIDS OUTDOORS AS MUCH AS
POSSIBLE.
>> HOW DO YOU INTEGRATE THE
CURRICULUM IN WITH THE LEARNINGS
THAT ARE HAPPENING OUTSIDE?
>> INSTEAD OF COUNTING ON A
BLACKBOARD WE COLLECT ACORNS AND
COUNT WITH NATURAL MATERIALS.
WE CAN THEN ALSO PROCESS THE
ACORNS, BECAUSE THEY'RE FOOD.
SO THERE'S A HISTORY LESSON
THERE IN ALL OF THE PEOPLE THAT
HAVE RELIED ON ACORNS AS A
STAPLE FOOD SOURCE.
>> Reporter: THE CHILD AND
NATURE ALLIANCE OF CANADA SAYS
THERE ARE A WIDE RANGE OF
BENEFITS.
>> THESE REALLY ARE
UNPRECEDENTED TIMES, AND IT'S
GOING TO REQUIRE EDUCATORS TO
CHANGE THE WAY THEY TEACH NO
MATTER WHAT.
AND SO WHY NOT MAKE THAT CHANGE
TO INCLUDE MORE OF THE OUTDOORS.
WE KNOW THAT BEING OUTSIDE
CARRIES MENTAL HEALTH BENEFITS
AND EMOTIONAL HEALTH BENEFITS,
AND ALSO THAT WE SEE REALLY RICH
LEARNING OUTCOMES OUTSIDE AS
WELL.
>> AND SHE SAYS NOT EVERY LESSON
HAS TO BE OUTDOORS, BUT EVEN
JUST READING A BOOK UNDER A TREE
OR GOING FOR A WALK IN THE
NEIGHBOURHOOD IS A GOOD START.
>> Mike: RACIAL DIVISION,
PEACEFUL PROTESTS AND ACTS OF
VANDALISM.
IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN HOW DONALD
TRUMP WILL ADDRESS ALL OF THAT
TONIGHT WHEN HE CLOSES OUT THE
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION.
AS PAUL HUNTER SHOWS US, HIS
CAMPAIGN IS ALREADY USING ALL OF
THE ABOVE.
>> Reporter: AS THE WHITE
HOUSE AND SOMEWHERE INSIDE IT
DONALD TRUMP TONIGHT PREPARED
FOR HIS BIG SPEECH IT WAS AMID
ECHOES OF WHAT'S PLAYING OUT IN
WISCONSIN AND, AS WELL, THE
CLEAR MESSAGING ON THAT FROM
REPUBLICANS AT THEIR CONVENTION
THIS WEEK IN WASHINGTON.
THE HEADLINE:
FEAR.
>> DEMOCRAT-RUN CITIES ACROSS
THIS CITY ARE BEING OVER RUN BY
VIOLENT MOBS, PEOPLE THAT CAN
AFFORD TO FLEE HAVE FLED.
BUT THE PEOPLE THAT CAN'T, GOOD
HARDWORKING AMERICANS?
ARE LEFT TO FEND FOR THEMSELVES.
>> AND, GOES THE SUGGESTION, THE
ONLY WAY TO STAY SAFE IS WITH
TRUMP.
>> PRESIDENT TRUMP IS THE LAW
AND ORDER PRESIDENT.
FROM OUR BORDERS TO OUR
BACKYARDS.
>> Reporter: THE HARD TRUTH
IS...
YOU WON'T BE SAFE IN JOE BIDEN'S
AMERICA.
>> FAR BEHIND IN THE POLLS, IT
MAY WELL BE THE VIOLENCE IN
WISCONSIN IN A SUMMER OF HEATED
PROTESTS, PLAYS TO TRUMP'S BID
FOR RE-ELECTION.
FEAR HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN A
POWERFUL WEAPON IN U.S.
POLITICS.
EVEN TODAY THE WHITE HOUSE
FRAMED WISCONSIN THIS WAY:
>> THE MORE CHAOS AND ANARCHY
AND SANDSISM AND VIOLENCE
RAINES, THE BETTER IT IS FOR THE
CLEAR CHOICE ON WHO'S BEST FOR
PUBLIC SAFETY AND LAW AND ORDER.
>> Reporter: BEFORE THE COVID
PANDEMIC, MOST EXPECT TRUMP TO
HIGHLIGHT A HEALTHY U.S. ECONOMY
AS THE BASIS FOR A SECOND TERM.
THAT'S NOW GONE.
AND WITH A LITTLE OVER TWO
MONTHS BEFORE VOTING DAY FEAR
COULD DRAWBACK VOTERS WHO
DRIFTED OVER TO JOE BIDEN.
>> I THINK HE VIEWS IT AS A
POLITICAL BENEFIT.
>> SAID BIDEN TODAY, IT WON'T
WORK.
BESIDE, HE SAYS, TRUMP'S ONLY
MAKING THINGS WORSE.
>> HE KEEPS POURING FUEL ON THE
FIRE.
HE'S ENCOURAGING IT.
HE'S NOT DIMINISHING AT ALL.
HIS HIS AMERICA NOW.
IF YOU WANT TO END WHERE WE ARE
NOW WE HAVE TO END HIS TENURE IN

A WAY TO REHOME THE BEES AS
OPPOSED TO KILLING THEM.

BARRY.
>> THIS IS THEIR NEW HOME TO
BEE.
>> THIS IS DEFINITELY ONE OF MY
MORE INTERESTING, WE'LL SAY,
COMPLEX BEE RECOVERIES.

CUTTING WALLS.

>> BARRY'S UP FOR THE JOB, FOR
SURE.
>> Lien: PEPPERMINT, DID YOU
KNOW THAT CALMS BEES?
>> YES.
