>> Adrienne: GOOD EVENING.
I'M ADRIENNE ARSENAULT.
ANDREW IS OFF.
>>> TONIGHT, THE BROTHERS AT
THE CENTRE OF THE WE
CONTROVERSY TAKE THE HOT SEAT.
>> THIS WAS NOT ABOUT THE
GOVERNMENT HELPING WE CHARITY,
WE CHARITY SOUGHT TO HELP THE
GOVERNMENT.
>> Adrienne: REVELATIONS FROM
THE TENSE TESTIMONY AND WHERE
THAT LEAVES THE PRIME MINISTER.
>>> THREE MONTHS AFTER CANADA'S
DEADLIEST MASS SHOOTING, OTTAWA
AGREES TO A PUBLIC ENQUIRY.
>> THIS PROCESS IS GOING TO
GIVE THEM THEIR ANSWERS.
>> Adrienne: CANADA IS
PROVED -- APPROVED ITS FIRST
TREATMENT FOR COVID-19.
SO WHY ISN'T IT GETTING IT?
>>> IT'S HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA
LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN IT
BEFORE.
NO FANS, PLAYERS TESTED IN
BUBBLES, BUT AS BASEBALL
BATTLES AN OUTBREAK, HAS THE
NHL DONE ENOUGH?
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
[*]
>> Adrienne: AFTER WEEKS OF
QUESTIONS, APOLOGIES, AND CALLS
FOR RESIGNATION ON PARLIAMENT
HILL, TODAY, TWO CENTRAL TEA
FIGURES IN THE WE CONTROVERSY
AGREED TO SIT DOWN TO FACE
QUESTIONS.
CRAIG AND MARC KIELBURGER SAT
DOWN TO ANSWER QUESTIONS, AND
AS EVAN DYER SHOWED US, AT
TIMES, IT GOT HEATED.
>> YES OR NO?
>> WE GOT PAID AT TIMES.
>> YES OR NO.
>> MR. COLLIER, DO I HAVE TO
SUSPEND THIS MEETING?
BECAUSE I WILL.
>> WE CHARITY IS A NONPARTISAN
ORGANIZATION.
>> Reporter: THE KIELBURGERS
DENIED ANY KIND OF SPECIAL
RELATION WITH THE TRUDEAU
GOVERNMENT.
>> I'VE NEVER SEEN THE PRIME
MINISTER OR SOPHIE TRUDEAU IN A
SOCIAL SETTING.
>> Reporter: AND THEY DENIED
THEY WERE SEEKING A BAILOUT
WHEN THEY APPLIED FOR THE
STUDENT GRANTS PROGRAMME.
>> THIS WAS NOT THE GOVERNMENT
HELPING WE CHARITY.
WE CHARITY SOUGHT TO HELP THE
GOVERNMENT.
>> Reporter: THE PAYMENTS WERE
A SURPRISE TO MICHELLE DOUGLAS,
WHO RESIGNED AS CHAIR OF WE'S
BOARD IN MARCH.
>> THE INFORMATION TOLD TO THE
BOARD WAS THAT NO SPEAKERS WERE
PAID TO SPEAK AT WE DAYS.
>> Reporter: THE KIELBURGERS
SAID THE MONEY WAS NOT FOR THE
SPEECHES THEMSELVES, "BOHEMIAN
RHAPSODY" FOR OTHER THINGS.
>> Y
>> -- THEMSELVES, BUT FOR OTHER
THINGS.
>> YES, SHE WAS PAID, BUT IT
WAS NOT FOR SPEAKING.
SHE DID OTHER THINGS.
>> FRANKLY, SIR, WE UNDERSTAND
WHAT YOU'RE ASKING.
I WISH THAT DIFFERENT DECISIONS
HAD BEEN MADE ON THE FINAL
DECISION MAKING ON ALL OF THESE
MATTERS.
THAT WAS NOT ALL OF OURS TO
DECIDE.
>> Reporter: AND THEY SAID
THEIR ORDEAL WITH THE
GOVERNMENT HAS PUT THEIR WHOLE
CHARITY AT RISK.
>> WE WISH THAT WE'D NEVER
ANSWERED THE PHONE ON APRIL 19.
>> Reporter: IT DID LITTLE FOR
THE GOVERNMENT AND INSTEAD
RAISED QUESTIONS WHY THE
TRUDEAUS WERE PAID WHEN SO MANY
OTHERS WERE NOT AND WHY WE'S
BOARD OF DIRECTORS WERE NOT
INFORMED OF THAT.
EVAN DYER, CBC NEWS, OTTAWA.
>> Adrienne: OKAY.
SO LET'S BRING IN VASSY
KAPELOS, HOST OF "POWER &
POLITICS" IN FOR THE
CONVERSATION.
IT WAS A LONG DAY, BUT HOW WAS
IT?
>> I DON'T THINK IT WAS A SLAM
DUNK.
HERE'S WHERE I DO THINK IT
COULD BE SIGNIFICANT.
WE LEARNED A LOT TODAY ABOUT
THE WAY THE CHARITY WORKS AND
ITS FINANCES, SOME MAJOR
QUESTIONS THE GOVERNMENT
PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE CONSIDERED
BEFORE HANDING OVER THIS
STUDENT GRANT PROGRAMME TO
THEM, AND WE ALSO LEARNED THAT
THE MONEY WE PAYED TO MEMBERS
OF THE PRIME MINISTER'S FAMILY
FOR THEIR WORK, EXCEPT FOR ONE
INSTANCE, WAS ALL PAID SINCE
JUSTIN TRUDEAU WAS PRIME
MINISTER, AND THAT ADDS TO THE
SENSE OF A CONFLICT.
MY SENSE IS THEY DIDN'T LAND A
GLARING BLOW, BUT WE'LL SEE HOW
IT PLAYS OUTGOING FORWARD.
IT'S A BIG DEAL FOR A PRIME
MINISTER, ANY PRIME MINISTER TO
BE GRILLED IN COMMITTEE IN THE
CENTRE OF ANY CONTROVERSY, SO
THAT IS GOING TO BE A
SPECTACLE.
THEN, I'M GOING TO BE WATCHING
WHAT APPROACH THE OPPOSITION
TAKES.
BOTTOM LINE, WILL THEY BE ABLE
TO GET THE PRIME MINISTER TO
ADMIT SOMETHING HE HASN'T
ALREADY.
IT'S A RISKY STRATEGY FOR THE
PRIME MINISTER TO EMPLOY, TO BE
GRILLED BY M.P.s IN THE MIDDLE
OF A CONTROVERSY.
IT PAYS OFF OR IT BACK FIRES,
THE STAKES COULDN'T BE HIGHER.
>> Adrienne: FAMILIES OF THE
MASS SHOOTING VICTIMS IN NOVA
SCOTIA ARE FINALLY GETTING THE
ENQUIRY THAT THEY HAD DEMANDED
INSTEAD OF THE REVIEW THAT THE
GOVERNMENT HAD PLANNED.
>> Reporter: THE SHOOTINGS
THREE MONTHS AGO BROUGHT PEOPLE
TOGETHER TO SUPPORT THE
FAMILIES AFFECTED.
THIS WEEK, THEY RALLIED FOR A
DIFFERENT REASON.
PROTESTS ACROSS THE PROVINCE TO
DEMAND A PUBLIC ENQUIRY.
FAMILIES WANT TO KNOW WHAT
POLICE KNEW ABOUT THE GUNMAN
BEFORE THE SHOOTING, HOW
OFFICERS RESPONDED THROUGH THE
13-HOUR MAN HUNT, AND WHY THE
PUBLIC ALERT SYSTEM WASN'T USED
TO TELL THE PUBLIC THAT A
GUNMAN WHO LOOKED LIKE A POLICE
OFFICER WAS ON THE LOOSE.
>>> TODAY, A GROUP OF LIBERAL
M.P.s FROM NOVA SCOTIA BROKE
FROM THEIR OWN PARTIES AND
JOINED THE CALL TO TURN A
REVIEW INTO A PUBLIC INQUIRELY.
>> THIS ENSURES THAT THEY'RE
GOING TO GET THE ANSWERS THAT
THEY NEED AND IT'S GOING TO
PROVIDE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO
GET SOME CLOSURE COLLECTIVELY.
>> PREMIWE'RE VERY PLEASED, QUITE
FRANKLY, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
IS NOW GOING TO DO THE ENQUIRY.
>> Reporter: A PUBLIC ENQUIRY
CAN SUMMON WITNESSES AND FORCE
THEM TO GIVE EVIDENCE UNDER
OATH.
VICTIMS FAMILIES TODAY ARE
RELIEVED.
DARCY DOBSON IS THE DAUGHTER OF
HEATHER O'BRIEN, ONE OF THE 22
VICTIMS.
>> EVERYBODY'S VERY EMOTIONAL.
THIS WAS NOT GOING TO BE EASY,
AND WE KNEW THAT FROM THE
BEGINNING, BUT I'M GLAD THAT
THE GOVERNMENT LISTENED TO WHAT
WE WANT AND WHAT WE NEED.
THIS IS THE RIGHT PROCESS TO
GET THE ANSWERS THAT WE NEED.
>> Reporter: COMPARED TO
REVIEWS, ENQUIRIES TIP CLOOL
TAKE LONGER TO ORGANIZE AND --
TYPICALLY TAKE LONGER TO
ORGANIZE AND EXECUTE, BUT IT'S
WHAT THE FAMILIES HAVE BEEN
ASKING SINCE THE SHOOTING THREE
MONTHS AGO.
>> Adrienne: HALIFAX HAS
CONFIRM THAT AN ENQUIRY WILL BE
HELD INTO THE SHOOTING OF AN
INDIGENOUS MAN LAST MONTH.
RODNEY LEVI DIED AFTER A CALL
ABOUT A SUSPICIOUS INDIVIDUAL.
IT IS NOT CLEAR WHEN THE
INQUEST WILL HAPPEN.
>>> AND YET ANOTHER NOOSE HAS
BEEN FOUND AT A TORONTO
CONSTRUCTION SITE.
THIS TIME, A LIGHT RAIL
STATION.
THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME IN TWO
MONTHS A NOOSE HAS BEEN FOUND
AT A TORONTO AREA CONSTRUCTION
SITE.
>>> AND TORONTO POLICE SAY THEY
HAVE ARRESTED SOMEONE IN
CONNECTION WITH A BRAZEN
PLAYGROUND SHOOTING.
T' QUAN ROBINSON EVADED
OFFICERS FOR TWO YEARS, BUT
HE'S ABOUT TO FACE CHARGES.
>>> AND NOW, THE COUNTRY'S
COVID CURVE IS GOING THE WRONG
WAY.
IT IS GOING UP.
>> THIS IS THE WRONG SIGN.
IT IS DEPENDENT ON THE
JURISDICTION, BUT THE FATE OF
THE FLATTENING OF THE CURVE IS
STILL WITHIN EACH OF OUR HANDS.
>> Adrienne: THE NATIONAL
AVERAGE HAS RISEN TO 486 CASES
THIS WEEK.
MORE CASES IN THE WEST ARE
BRINGING UP THAT AVERAGE.
CANADA'S TOP DOCTOR WARNS
PEOPLE NEED TO KEEP TAKING
PRECAUTIONS, AND LOCAL
OFFICIALS MAY HAVE TO
REINSTITUTE RESTRICTIONS TO
SEND THE CURVE BACK DOWN.
>>> WELL, THERE IS SOME GOOD
NEWS, AND THAT IS THAT CANADIAN
HOSPITALS MAY SOON HAVE A NEW
TOOL TO FIGHT COVID-19.
HEALTH CANADA HAS APPROVED
REMDESIVIR.
THAT IS THE FIRST TREATMENT,
BUT WITH THE U.S. ALREADY
HAVING SECURED MOST OF THE
WORLD'S SUPPLY, HOW MUCH CANADA
IS ABLE TO GET REMAINS A HUGE
QUESTION.
CHRISTINE BIRAK EXPLAINS.
>> Reporter: REMDESIVIR WON'T
TREAT ANYONE FOR COVID-19, BUT
IT CAN SPEED UP A PATIENT'S
RECOVERY TIME.
DOCTORS CAN NOW GIVE IT TO ANY
SEVERELY ILL PATIENT WHO CANNOT
BREATHE ON THEIR OWN.
>> I DO THINK THIS WILL BE
EFFECTIVE IN THE FIGHT AGAINST
COVID IN IMPROVING OUTCOMES.
>> Reporter: HEALTH CANADA SAYS
IT'S REVIEWED RECOMMENDS
RECOMMENDS AND DECIDED THE
DRUG'S BENEFITS OUTWEIGH ITS
RISKS IN TERMS OF SAFETY.
REMDESIVIR WAS ORIGINALLY AN
EBOLA TREATMENT.
IT WAS MEANT TO BLOCK THE VIRUS
FROM MAKING COPIES OF ITSELF
INSIDE OUR CELLS.
UNFORTUNATELY, IT DIDN'T WORK.
THE VIRUS KEPT SPREADING.
BUT WHEN COVID-19 PATIENTS WERE
INJECTED ABOUT THE SAME DRUG, A
LARGE AMERICAN STUDY ON AVERAGE
IT REDUCED HOSPITAL STAYS FROM
15 DAYS TO 11.
DOCTORS SAY THEY'LL TAKE ANY
HELP THEY CAN GET.
AND YET, THERE'S NO GUARANTEE
THAT IT WILL BE READY.
REMDESIVIR IS NOW APPROVED FOR
USE IN CANADA, BUT IT'S
EXPENSIVE AND REALLY HARD TO
FIND.
THE U.S. HAS BOUGHT UP ALMOST
ALL THE GLOBAL SUPPLY.
>> I THINK THEY'LL START TO
INCOMPETENT CREASE THEIR
CAPACITY, BUT THE BOTTOM LINE
IS THE DRUG IS NOT PLENTIFUL.
>> Reporter: THE MANUFACTURER
SAID IT EXPECTS TO MEET
REAL-TIME IN CANADA AND AROUND
THE WORLD IN OCTOBER.
OTHER TREATMENTS ARE IN THE
WORKS, BUT WITH ALL JUST AROUND
THE CORNER, THE PUSH FOR A CURE
IS RELENTLESS.
CHRISTINE BIRAK, CBC NEWS,
TORONTO.
>> Adrienne: AND NOW, DEVON
HEROUX HAS THE SIGHTS, THE
SOUNDS, AND THE RULES OF
COVID-19 HOCKEY.
>> Reporter: 138 DAYS AFTER THE
LAST PUCK DROPPED, AND IT ONLY
TOOK SECONDS, WITH DOZENS OF
NEWLY INSTALLED CAMERAS
CAPTURING EVERY SHOT, SAVE, AND
GOAL.
A WEEK OF EXHIBITION GAMES IN
TORONTO AND EDMONTON BEFORE IT
ALL STARTS FOR REAL ON
SATURDAY.
>> I MEAN, IT'S GOING TO BE A
CHALLENGE FOR EVERYBODY.
I THINK THAT, YOU KNOW, THERE'S
GOING TO BE RUST, AND YOU HAVE
TO UNDERSTAND THAT.
>> Reporter: NEARLY 800 PLAYERS
AND DOZENS OF TEAM STAFF ARE
GETTING ACCLIMATIZED, STEPPING
INSIDE THEIR DAILY BUBBLES FOR
THE FIRST TIME, DAILY TESTING,
TEMPERATURE CHECKS, SWAPPING
DRESSING ROOMS, ALL PART OF THE
NEW NORMAL.
THE NHL SPARED NO EXPENSE.
DECKED OUT FLOORS WITH EACH
TEAM'S COLOURS, EACH FLOOR WITH
14 RESTAURANTS.
PLAYERS' SAFETY THE NUMBER ONE
CONCERN.
>> YOU CAN'T LET YOUR GUARD
DOWN.
THERE'S NO ROOM FOR
COMPLACENCY.
>> SO FAR, SO GOOD SAYS THE
DOCTOR.
NO NEW POSITIVE CASES REPORTED
MONDAY AFTER THOUSANDS OF TESTS
OVER THE LAST WEEK OF THE
LEAGUE'S PHASE THREE.
>> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THE FACT
THAT THE NHL IS BACK TO YOU?
>> ALTHOUGH THESE ARE ALL
POSITIVE SIGNS, THEY STILL HAVE
TO ADHERE TO THESE PUBLIC
HEALTH GUIDELINES AND
RESTRICTIONS TO ENSURE THAT
THEY REMAIN IN THE BUBBLE SO
THAT IF ANYONE ELSE DOES TEST
POSITIVE, THAT THEY DON'T GET
EXPOSED.
>> Reporter: IF EVERYTHING GOES
ACCORDING TO PLAN, ONE TEAM
WILL HOIST THE CUP IN A JOURNEY
THAT COULD RUN INTO OCTOBER.
DEVON HEROUX, CBC NEWS,
TORONTO.
>> Adrienne: SO EXCITEMENT
ASIDE, HOCKEY FANS CANNOT LET
THEIR GUARD OWN OVER COVID-19.
HERE'S RAFFY BOUDJIKANIAN
BETWEEN NOW EDMONTON IS
CHECKING THE BALANCE BETWEEN
SAFETY AND CELEBRATION.
>> Reporter: AT SPORT BARS
ACROSS EDMONTON, EXTRA WORK TO
REASSURE PEOPLE IT'S SAFE TO
TAKE IN THE EXTRA LATE PLAYOFF
HOCKEY SEASON.
>> WE'RE ASKING PEOPLE NOT TO
HIGH FIVES AND WALK AROUND
AFTER A GOAL, NOT TO CELEBRATE
AS MUCH AS THEY ORDINARILY
WOULD.
WE WANT PEOPLE COME OUT AND
HAVE A GOOD TIME STILL.
>> GOAL MEANS GOAL NO MATTER
WHERE I'M AT IN THE WORLD.
>> Reporter: IF YOU THINK
THAT'S DARING FOR SOMEBODY IN
OILERS NATION.
>> THERE'S NOT TOO MUCH GOING
ON.
IT'S DEFINITELY NICE TO HAVE
SOMETHING TO DO AND CREATING A
BUZZ AROUND THE CITY.
>> Reporter: BUT HOW MUCH OF
THAT BUZZ WILL TRANSLATE INTO
CASH FOR THE CITY?
>> I DON'T THINK THERE'S GOING
TO BE ANY KIND OF ECONOMIC
WINDFALL FOR THE CITY.
THE AMOUNT OF MONEY IS GOING TO
BE TOO SMALL COMPARED TO THE
SIZE OF EDMONTON'S ECONOMY.
>> Reporter: BUT HE SAYS THERE
COULD BE FUTURE IMPACTS FOR
EDMONTON.
>> IF YOU'VE GOT B SHOTS, AND
YOU'RE SHOWING THAT AS YOU GO
TO COMMERCIAL, IT'S CERTAINLY A
WAY TO MARKET THE CITY.
>> Reporter: BUT THIS
RESTAURANT OWNER IS HOPING FOR
A LONG-TERM SHOT IN THE ARM.
SO FAR, THE LEAGUE'S BUBBLE IS
HOLDING, BUT AMONG EDMONTON'S
GENERAL POPULATION, THE NUMBER
IS FAR HIGHER THAN IT WAS IN
MIDMAY, WHEN THE ECONOMY
REOPENED, WITH NEARLY 280
ACTIVE COVID-19 CASES.
RAFFY BOUDJIKANIAN, CBC NEWS,
EDMONTON.
>> Adrienne: SO HOCKEY FANS
HOPE COVID-19 STAYS OUT,
BASEBALL FANS HOPE IT STAYS
CONTAINED.
TODAY, DR. ANTHONY FAUCI WAS
ASKED IF THE MIAMI MARLINS'
OUTBREAK COULD KILL THE WHOLE
SEASON?
>> WE JUST NEED TO WAIT AND SEE
WHAT HAPPENS ON A DAY BY DAY
BASIS.
>> Adrienne: WITH AT LEAST 17
PEOPLE IN THE MIAMI ORGANIZE
TESTING POSITIVE, THE LEAGUE
HAS CLEARED THE TEAM'S SCHEDULE
UNTIL NEXT WEEK AT LEAST.
THE MARLINS HAVE REMAINED IN
PHILADELPHIA SINCE SUNDAY'S
GAME AGAINST THE PHILLIES.
NO ONE ON THE PHILLIES HAS
TESTED POSITIVE SO FAR.
THE BLUE JAYS ARE SCHEDULED TO
PLAY THE PHILLIES ON FRIDAY.
>> Reporter: AFTER BEING LAID
OFF THREE TIMES, PETROLEUM
ENGINEER MARK TAYLOR IS USING
THE CERB TO REINVENT HIMSELF.
>> I'VE GOT AN APPLICATION IN
TO THE RCMP.
HOPEFULLY, THAT'S THE NEXT STOP
IN MY CAREER.
>> Reporter: TAYLOR'S SLICE OF
PANDEMIC FEDERAL ASSISTANCE IS
PART OF HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF
EMERGENCY FEDERAL DOLLARS
FLOWING INTO ALBERTA IN
BENEFITS, SUBSIDIES, AND LOANS.
WE ASKED ECONOMIST TREVOR TOOME
TO CRUNCH THOSE NUMBERS.
>> FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 55
YEARS, IT LOOKS LIKE THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS GOING TO
BE SPENDING A LOT MORE IN
ALBERTA THAN THE REVENUE THEY
COLLECT FROM ALBERTA TAXPAYERS.
>> Reporter: ALBERTANS
TYPICALLY PAY MORE INTO THE
CANADA GOVERNMENT THAN THEY
RECEIVE BACK.
BEFORE THE RECESSION, IT WAS
$20 BILLION MORE.
BUT NOW, THE PANDEMIC HAS
REVERSED THAT.
THE PROVINCE IS RECEIVING ABOUT
$22 BILLION MORE THAN IT'S
PAID.
THIS NEW REALITY MAY NOT CHANGE
LONG-STANDING COMPLAINTS THAT
ALBERTANS ARE SHOULDERING TOO
MUCH OF THE FEDERAL BURDEN.
SOME SUGGEST SPENDING ALL THAT
MONEY EVEN IN ALBERTA MAY
ACTUALLY MAKE SOME ALBERTANS
MORE AGGRIEVED.
>> ALBERTANS ARE GOING TO HAVE
TO PAY ALL THIS MONEY BACK FOR
EVERYBODY ELSE.
NOT JUST THE MONEY THAT'S BEING
BORROWED TO SEND TO ALBERTA,
BUT THE MONEY THAT'S BEING
BORROWED TO SEND TO QUEBEC, FOR
EXAMPLE.
>> Reporter: CAROLYN DUNN, CBC
NEWS, CALGARY.
>> Adrienne: AND TO THE UNITED
STATES NOW.
TRUMP WENT ON A TWEETING SPREE
OVER NIGHT, POSTING A VIDEO OF
A DOCTOR ABOUT HYDROCHLOROQUINE
AND OTHER MEDICATIONS.
>> President Donald Trump: I
CAN'T -- I CAN TELL YOU THIS,
SHE WAS ON AIR, ALONG WITH MANY
OTHER DOCTORS, AND THEY WERE
BIG FANS OF HYDROXY
CHLOROQUINE, AND I THOUGHT IT
WAS ORIGINALLY IMPRESSIVE.
>> Adrienne: THE VIDEO WAS
RE-TWEETED BY DONALD TRUMP, JR.
TWITTER SENSORED THE VIDEO AND
EVENTUALLY TOOK IT DOWN.
>> SHAME ON, MR. BARR.
>> Reporter: IT WAS COMBATIVE
OUT OF THE GATE.
DEMOCRATS ACCUSING THE ATTORNEY
GENERAL OF DOING POLITICAL
FAVOURS FOR THE PRESIDENT.
>> THE PRESIDENT WANTS FOOTAGE
FOR HIS CAMPAIGN ADS, AND YOU
APPEAR TO BE SERVING IT UP TO
HIM AS ORDERED.
>> Reporter: THIS IS WHAT
DEMOCRATS ARE TALKING ABOUT.
FEDERAL AGENTS IN PORTLAND
BREAKING UP PROTESTS AGAINST
RACISM AND BRUTALITY, FOOTAGE
THAT THE PRESIDENT CAN USE TO
STRENGTHEN HIS TOUGH ON CRIME
ASSISTANCE FOOTAGE.
>> WHEN BLACK PEOPLE AND PEOPLE
OF COLOUR PROTEST POLICE
BRUTALITY, SYSTEMIC RACISM, AND
THE PRESIDENT'S VERY OWN LACK
OF RESPONSE TO THOSE VERY
CRITICAL ISSUES, THEN YOU
FORCEABLELY REMOVE THEM WITH
ARMED FEDERAL OFFICERS.
>> Reporter: BARR PROVED
HIMSELF TO BE THE ULTIMATE
TRUMP ALLY, AND HE SAYS THE
PRESIDENT KEEPS HIS DISTANCE.
>> HE NEVER ASKED ME, DIRECTED
ME, PRESSURED ME TO DO ANYTHING
IN THE CRIMINAL CASE.
>> Reporter: THAT INCLUDES
BARR'S DECISION TO REDUCE A
SENTENCE FOR TRUMP'S LONG TIME
FRIEND, ROGER STONE AND DROP
CHARGES AGAINST FORMER TRUMP
ADVISOR MICHAEL FLYNN.
>> REPUBLICANS SHOWED AN OUT OF
CONTEXT VIDEO SUGGESTING THAT
THE MEDIA IS DOWNPLAYING THE
PROTESTERS AND ACCUSED THE
MEDIA OF SETTLING SCORES.
>> THEY'VE BEEN ATTACKING YOU
EVER SINCE, FOR SIMPLY STATING
THE TRUTH THAT THE OBAMA-BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION SPIED ON THE
TRUMP CAMPAIGN.
>> Reporter: TODAY'S HEARING
WAS ABOUT POLITICAL POSTURING,
NOT NECESSARILY ABOUT
FACT-FINDING, WHICH ISN'T
SURPRISING, GIVEN THAT THE
ELECTION IS JUST A FEW MONTHS
AWAY.
KATY SIMPSON, CBC NEWS,
WASHINGTON, D.C.
>> Adrienne: A HOME
DRAGON>> Adrienne: NEXT ON "THE
NATIONAL," THE EMOTIONAL RETURN
OF THE H.M.S. FREDERICTON AND A
LOOK AT THEIR PUBLIC DURING THE
PANDEMIC.
>>> AND SHE CARRIED HER DEAD
CALF FOR WEEK WHILE THE WORLD
WATCHED.
TONIGHT, THERE'S NO HOPE
>> Adrienne: HAPPINESS TINGED
WITH A LOT OF SORROW AFTER
H.M.S. FREDERICTON PULLED INTO
PORT IN NOVA SCOTIA.
AS TOM MURPHY SHOWS US, TRAGEDY
ALONG WITH A NEW REALITY OF THE
PANDEMIC WAS CERTAINLY ON THE
MIND ON MANY ON BOARD AND
ONSHORE.
>> Reporter: NAVY SHIPS HAVE
SAILED BACK, SAILED BACK TO
THIS PORT FOR GENERATIONS, BUT
THIS TIME, IT FEELS A LITTLE
DIFFERENT.
>> YEAH, IT'S A DEFINITELY
DIFFERENT SENTIMENT BECAUSE
THERE'S ALSO EXCITEMENT BUT
THERE'S ALSO THAT THOUGHT OF
THEY'RE COMING HOME, BUT NOT
EVERYONE'S COMING HOME.
>> Reporter: H.M.S. FREDERICTON
COMES HOME AFTER THE LOSS OF
SIX CANADIAN AVIATORS IN THE
AONEAN SEA.
THE MIXED EMOTIONS OF THIS DAY
ARE SO OBVIOUS.
THE JOY AND THE TRADITION OF
THE FIRST HUG, THE MEMORY OF
THOSE WHO DIDN'T COME HOME FOR
THAT FIRST EMBRACE, THE
FAMILIES WATCHING FROM THE
DOCK.
THERE'S BEEN NO HOME LEAVE AND
PLENTY OTHER RESTRICTIONS
BECAUSE OF COVID-19.
THE MASKS CAN MAKE RECOGNIZING
YOUR DAD TOUGH ENOUGH.
COVID PRECAUTIONS MEANT
FAMILIES COULDN'T REUNITE ON A
CROWDED DOCK IN THE USUAL WAY.
RATHER, THE CROWD WAS BUSSED TO
ANOTHER LOCATION TO REUNITE
WITH THEIR FAMILIES WAITING IN
THEIR CARS.
>> I'M ALREADY TELLING MY
HUSBAN --
MY HUSBAND IS ALREADY TELLING
ME, YOU'VE GOT TO COME WITH ME
WHEN I GO GROCERY SHOPPING.
>> Adrienne: UP NEXT, BRITISH
COLUMBIA'S GREAT OTTER
EXPERIMENT.
THE SURPRISING IMPACT 50 YEARS
AFTER THEY RETURNED TO THE WEST
COAST.
>>>
>> Adrienne: WELCOME BACK.
A KILLER WHALE THAT CAPTURED
THE WORLD'S ATTENTION AFTER
GRIEVING THE LOSS OF HER
NEWBORN CALF IS BELIEVED TO BE
PREGNANT AGAIN
>> THAT MADE FOLKS AWARE OF HOW
EVERY CALF IS IMPORTANT TO THE
SMALL POPULATION.
MOST FEMALES MIGHT GIVE BIRTH
TO THREE, FOUR, FIVE CALVES IN
THEIR LIFETIME, SO EVERY SINGLE
ONE COUNTS.
>> Adrienne: IN THE SUMMER OF
2018, THE WHALE SPARKED SOME
SERIOUS CONCERNED AFTER
CARRYI
CARRYING HER DEAD YOUNG AROUND
FOR 17 DAYS.
>>> ALSO, OFF THE COAST OF
BRITISH COLUMBIA, SOMETHING
WONDERFUL IS HAPPENING.
ONCE DECIMATED BY THE FUR
TRADE, SEA OTTERS IS MAKING A
COME BACK, BUT AS GREG
RASMUSSEN EXPLAINS, THEIR
RETURN IS DRAMATICALLY CHANGING
THE WHOLE UNDERWEAR ECOSYSTEM.
>> Reporter: IN SEARCH OF THE
ELUSIVE SEA OTTERS, HARD TO
FIND IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
WATERS.
>> YEAH, THERE'S ONE LYING ON
HIS BACK.
>> Reporter: RIGHT ON.
ONCE WIPED OUT ENTIRELY IN B.C.
BY THE FUR TRADE, THEY ARE NOW
MAKING A COMEBACK.
>> AND NOW, I SEE TWO MORE
HEADS IN THERE, A LITTLE CLOSER
TO US, RIGHT IN THE KELP.
SO RIGHT NOW, I SEE A FEMALE
WITH A PUP.
>> Reporter: GIVEN THEIR
HISTORY OF TARGETS, THEY HAVE
GOOD REASON TO BE WARY.
>> THEY CAN SMELL US FROM HERE,
AND THEY CAN HEAR THE MOTOR.
THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO GET AWAY
FROM US.
>> Reporter: RESEARCHER ERIN
FOSTER USES THE DAY TO COUNT
THE GROUP OF OTTERS, CALLED
RAFTS.
>> THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE
SCARED, ACTUALLY, BUT
SOMETIMES, THE WIND WILL BLOW
THE RAFT APART A LITTLE BIT.
>> Reporter: DESPITE THEIR CUTE
AND FUZZY LOOKS, OTTERS HAD A
T
TOP PREDATOR, EATING A BOAT
LOAD OF SEAFOOD EVERY DAY.
>> MY GUESS IS HE'S A
TERRITORIAL MALE.
HE'S QUITE FAT.
>> Reporter: AND THE OTHER
ONE'S NOT SO SHY.
>> HE'S LOOKING RIGHT AT US.
HE DEFINITELY KNOWS WE'RE HERE.
>> Reporter: THEIR PELTS MADE
THEM A TARGET OF THE FUR TRADE,
WITH THE LAST OTTER SHOT IN
1929, BUT THEIR RETURN WASN'T
BY ACCIDENT.
50 YEARS AGO, CANADIAN BOLTS
TRAVELLED TO ALASKA -- CANADIAN
BIOLOGISTS TRAVELLED TO ALASKA
TO GET ENOUGH OTTERS TO
TRANSPORT ENOUGH IN BRITISH
COLUMBIA WATERS.
>> SEA OTTERS WERE RELEASED IN
BRITISH COLUMBIAN WATERS.
THIS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN HOME,
BUT HOME WAS NEVER LIKE THIS.
>> WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT, THE
SEA OTTERS WERE DEVASTATED IN
BRITISH COLUMBIA BY THE 1900s.
>> Reporter: THEY'RE
FLUORISHING.
OF THE 89 THAT WERE RELEASED IN
1970, THERE'S NOW MORE THAN
8,000.
>> NO ONE WAS EXPECTING IT.
WHEN SEA OTTERS WERE
INTRODUCED, NO ONE KNEW THAT
THEY WERE GOING TO CHANGE
ECOSYSTEMS.
>> Reporter: WHAT THEY ALSO
DIDN'T KNOW WAS HOW IT WOULD
IMPACT THE MULTIMILLION DOLLAR
SHELLFISH INDUSTRY AND THE
DIETS OF MANY COASTAL
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE.
[SPEAKING INDIGENOUS LANGUAGE]
>> Reporter: 90-YEAR-OLD HILDA
HANSEN SAID SHE SAW HER
COMMUNITY DECIMATE THE OTTER
POPULATION, SOMETHING THAT
RESEARCHERS DOCUMENTED IN THEIR
RESEARCH.
INDIGENOUS LEADERS HADN'T BEEN
CONSULTED, AND SCIENTISTS
HADN'T FORESEEN THE IMPACT ON
THE UNDERWATER FOOD CHAIN, BUT
THEIR REINTRODUCTION HAS AN
UPSIDE.
THIS IS WHAT'S KNOWN AS A SEA
URCHIN BARREN, CREATED WHEN THE
SEA URCHIN POPULATION EXPLODES.
WITH OTTERS RETURNING, SCUBA
DRIVE
DIVERS ARE SEEING THE KELP COME
BACK.
>> THE OTTERS HAVE DONE THEIR
WORK HERE.
I WENT DOWN THINKING I'LL BE
BACK IN A FEW MINUTES WITH AN
URCHIN, AND ALL I COULD FIND
WAS ONE GREEN URCHIN.
>> Reporter: ONCE THE URCHINS
ARE EATEN BY THE OTTERS, THE
KELP QUICKLY COMES BACK.
IT PLAYS A ROLE SEQUESTERING
ALL KINDS OF CREATURES, AND
EVEN ABSORBS CARBON.
>> SO MANY JUVENILE ROCKFISH,
KELP, GREENLING.
>> Reporter: WHILE INDIGENOUS
LEADERS HAD LITTLE SAY IN THE
REINTRODUCTION OF THE OTTERS,
THEY'RE NOW HAVING A SAY IN
WHAT'S HAPPENING.
>> THIS IS KNOWN AS THE PLACE
OF OTTER.

HEREDITARY CHIEF AND ALSO OWNS
A TOURIST COMPANY.
HE'S PLANNING A HIGH-END
CAMPING OUTPOST FOR TOURISTS,

NATIONS A CHANCE OUT HERE TO
TAKE PART IN MAINSTREAM
ECONOMY.
>> Reporter: HE VIEW UP ON THE
WATER AND SEES A BIG DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN PLACES THAT HAVE SEA
OTTERS AND THOSE THAT DON'T,
SUCH AS HIS HOME COMMUNITY TO
THE SOUTH.
>> YOU SEE THE CHANGE.
IT'S DIFFERENT OUT THERE.
THERE'S HARDLY ANY KELP FOREST
DOWN THERE, BUT IT'S DIFFERENT
UP HERE.
IT'S A DIFFERENT WORLD DOWN
THERE, AND THE BALANCE THAT THE
OTTERS HAVE YET TO BRING
REMAINS TO BE SEEN.
>> THERE'S A COUPLE TINY PUPS
IN THIS GROUP.
>> Reporter: FOR A COUPLE
THOUSAND YEARS, THIS AREA WAS
HOME TO THOUSANDS OF OTTERS AND
PEOPLE.
THE QUESTION IS FINDING A DEL
INDICATE BALANCE FOR THE TWO.

SENSATIONAL, AND SOON TO BE
OVER.
JOHNNY DEPP'S LAWSUIT AGAINST A
BRITISH TABLOID.
EVEN IF HE WINS, HE MAY HAVE A
HARD TIME REPAIRING HIS
TARNISHED REPUTATION.
>> Reporter: THE COUPLE MET ON
THE SET OF THE RUM DIARIES AND
WERE MARRIED IN 2015.
ACCORDING TO TESTIMONY, THINGS
BECAME VIOLENT QUICKLY.
THESE BRUISES, HEARD SAID, ARE
WHEN DEPP THREW A PHONE AT HER.
OVER THE YEARS, HE WAS VIOLENCE
14 TIMES, AND THAT SHE FEARED
FOR HER LIFE.
DEPP CLAIMS HE NEVER HIT HER
AND IT WAS ALL A -- A HOAX.
DEPP'S LAWYERS PORTRAYED HEARD
AS THE AGGRESSOR.
>> I WAS ASTONISHED THAT ANYONE
WOULD LET DEPP TAKE THIS TO
TRIAL.
>> THIS MEDIA LAWYER SAID IT
WAS A RISKY MOVE THAT MADE
TROUBLING PUBLIC PICTURES AND
TESTIMONY FROM A DAMAGED
RELATIONSHIP.
>> THE PUBLIC WANTS TO KNOW THE
FANTASY.
THEY DON'T WANT TO KNOW THE
GRITTY REALITY, AND WHAT WE'VE
HAD IS THREE WEEKS OF GRITTY
RAILITY.
>> Reporter: OUTSIDE THE
COURTROOM, HEARD SAID SHE WOULD
HAVE PREFERRED TO NOT HERE.
>> IT HAS BEEN INCREDIBLY
PAINFUL, TO RELIVE THE BREAK UP
OF MY RELATIONSHIP, TO HAVE THE
MOTIVE OF MY TRUTH QUESTIONED.
>> Reporter: DEPP THANKED
REPORTERS.
SOME WERE GIVEN HANDWRITTEN
NOTES BY HIM, AN UNUSUAL CASE
PLAYED OUT IN THE COURT OF
PUBLIC OPINION.
>> Adrienne: THE 2020 PRIME
MINISTER TIME EMMY AWARD

WE SHOW YOU HOW THE SENATOR IS
USING ITS BALCONY TO HOST
STREETSIDE CONCERTS.

BECAUSE IT'S A RAY OF LIGHT,

IT'S A POSITIVE BURST OF
ENERGY.
THIS IS A TIME THAT WE ALL NEED
TO FIGURE OUT NEW WAYS OF DOING
THINGS.

LIVE MUSIC NOW BANNED BECAUSE

OF THE SENATOR, WANTED TO
ENSURE THE RESTAURANT'S
SURVIVAL.
>> THIS IS JUST LETTING PEOPLE
KNOW THAT WE'RE STILL HERE.
WE'RE NOT THE SAME AS WE WERE
BEFORE, BUT WE'RE STILL HERE.
>> NOBODY CAN DO MUCH.
NOBODY CAN EAT -- THEY CAN'T DO
MUCH.
NOBODY CAN EAT INSIDE, THE
MENUHAS BEMEN
MENU HAS BEEN SLASHED
>> WE TOOK A LOOK AT THE BAN
BALCONY.
>> WE'RE 20 FEET OFF THE
GROUND, SO WE'RE NOT PART OF
THE PARK, AND WE'RE 18 FEET
LONG, SO WE CAN OBSERVE SOCIAL
DISTANCING.
>> Reporter: IT'S A PAYDAY WHEN
EVERYTHING ELSE HAS DRIED UP.
>> WHAT MADE YOU PLAY MUSIC
HERE DURING A PANDEMIC?
>> IT IS SO INCREDIBLE.
I KIND OF LIKEN IT TO AN OASIS
IN THE DESERT BECAUSE, YOU
KNOW, FOR MONTHS, WE HAVEN'T
BEEN ABLE TO PLAY WITH ONE
ANOTHER, AND THIS IS AN
INNOVATION, IT'S AN ADAPTATION
TO A NEGATIVE SITUATION, SO I
REALLY, REALLY LOVE THAT.
IT'S KIND OF -- TO ME, IT'S
KIND OF LIKE IMPROVIZING, WHICH
IS WHAT JASPZZ IS ALL ABOUT.
>> Reporter: COREY EXPLAINS
THAT MUSIC CAN DO ONE OTHER
THING: HELP PEOPLE GET THROUGH
IT.
>> I HOPE THAT WE ALL STICK IT
THROUGH TO THE OTHER SIDE OF
THIS AND KEEP HOPE ALIVE THAT
THERE WILL BE A TIME WHEN WE
CAN ALL GET TOGETHER, PERFORM,
KEEP THE SPIRIT OF LIVE MUSIC
GOING.
>> LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THAT'S
NATHAN HILL ON THE GUITAR AND
ALISON WILLIAMS ON THE
SAXOPHONE.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.
>> SERENADE DURING THE
PANDEMIC.
I WONDER WHAT PEOPLE THINK OF
THAT?
>> I CAME DOWN HERE TO LISTEN
TO SOME MUSIC, LIFT MY SPIRITS
UP.
HEARING IT LIVE IS ALWAYS
BETTER THAN ON MY SCREEN.
>> DURING A PANDEMIC, I THINK
IT'S WAY MORE ESSENTIAL THAN
EVER, REALLY.
IT KEEPS US LIFTED, GIVES US A
GOOD VIBE, AND WE HAVE TO
SUPPORT OUR BUSINESSES AND OUR
ARTISTS.
IT'S ESSENTIAL.
>> I THINK IT'S FUN TO GET OUT
AND HEAR IT.
>> HAVE SOME LEMONADE AND
SUPPORT THE SENATOR RESTAURANT
THROUGH WHAT ARE REALLY TOUGH
PANDEMIC TIMES.
I HAVEN'T HEARD LIFE MUSIC
SINCE THE -- LIVE MUSIC SINCE
THE PANDEMIC STARTED.
>> WHEN YOU'RE PERFORMING, AND
YOU LOOK DOWN, AND YOU SEE THE
PEOPLE, WHAT DO YOU HOPE THEY
FEEL?
>> JOY, YOU KNOW?
MUSIC IS SUCH A POWERFUL SOURCE
OF JOY, AND I THINK WE NEED
THAT MORE THAN EVER NOW.
WHAT I HAVE NOTICED IS THAT
PEOPLE RESPOND TO MUSIC MORE
NOW THAN BEFORE.
[*]
>> Reporter: IF THE SENATOR
RESTAURANT CAN REALLY PROVIDE
THAT KIND OF HOPE FOR PEOPLE,
CHANCE RIGHT SIDE THAT IT'LL
SURVIVE, AND CYBIL THINKS IT
COULD MEAN EVEN MORE.
>> I THINK THAT PEOPLE REALLY
LIKE TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE
SOME THINGS THAT THEY'VE LOVED
FOR YEARS THAT AREN'T GOING TO
CHANGE, SO I THINK THAT'S
COMFORTING FOR PEOPLE.
[*]
>> PLACES COME AND GO, BUT THIS
PLACE HAS ALWAYS BEEN HERE, AND
IT ALWAYS WILL BE.
[*]
>> Reporter: NICK DURDEN, CBC
NEWS, TORONTO.
>> Adrienne: ALL RIGHT.
NEXT ON "THE NATIONAL," THERE
IS NO SUCH THING AS PERFECT,
EXCEPT MAYBE FOR THIS STUDENT'S DANZIG
[*]
>> Adrienne: NOMI DANZIG ALWAYS
WORKED HARD, BUT THE TORONTO
STUDENT NEVER IMAGINED DOING
THIS WELL IN SCHOOL.
SHE JUST GRADUATED WITH AN
AVERAGE OF 100%.
SO THAT AVERAGE COMES FROM
TOTALLING THE STUDENT'S SIX
HIGHEST GRADES, AND NOMI HAD A
PERFECT SCORE IN ALL OF THEM.
HER INKRCREDIBLE ACHIEVEMENT IS,
OF COURSE, OUR "MOMENT."
>> I AM KIND OF IN DISBELIEF.
I KNEW THEY WERE GOOD, BUT I
DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE THAT
GOOD.
I GOT TAKEOUT WITH MY PARENTS
LAST NIGHT, WHICH WAS NICE.
THAT'S A BIG COVID CELEBRATION,
I GUESS.
A REALLY BIG FACTOR IN GETTING
GOOD GRADES IS TIME MANAGEMENT,
JUST BEING ABLE TO KNOW HOW
MUCH TIME EACH PIECE OF
HOMEWORK IS GOING TO TAKE.
THERE'S NOT MUCH ELSE TO DO
DURING THE PANDEMIC SO, LIKE,
LEARNING IS INTERESTING, I
GUESS, AND THAT IS A GOOD THING
TO DO TO PASS THE TIME.
>> SHE GOT 97 IN SOMETHING.
SUPER DISAPPOINTING.
>> IT'S REALLY NICE TO SEE HARD
WORK PAYOFF BUT, LIKE, I DON'T
KNOW, LIKE, IN THE WHOLE
PANDEMIC SITUATION, SOME KIDS
DIDN'T HAVE THE SAME
OPPORTUNITIES.
I WAS REALLY SUPER FORTUNATE
BECAUSE SOME KIDS DIDN'T HAVE
ACCESS TO THE INTERNET, SO
YEAH, I WAS SUPER FORTUNATE IN
THAT REGARD, TOO.
>> Adrienne: THERE WERE FIVE
STUDENTS RECOGNIZED FROM SIX
SCHOOLS, AN AVERAGE OF 99%, A
MARK THAT HAS NEVER APPEARED ON
ONE OF MY REPORT CARDS.
THAT IS "THE NATIONAL," JULY
28.
GOOD NIGHT.
