>> Andrew: GOOD EVENING, I'M 
ANDREW CHANG.
ADRIENNE IS AWAY.
TONIGHT, NO APOLOGIES FROM THE 
LEADER OF THE NDP.
>> THE CONSERVATIVE AND LIBERAL 
PARTY ARE THE TWO PARTIES THAT 
HAVE BUILT A SYSTEM OF SYSTEMIC 
INEQUALITY AND SYSTEMIC RACISM.
IT'S THOSE PARTIES AT FAULT.
>> Andrew: JAGMEET SINGH SAYS HE
MEANT WHAT HE SAID.
>>> MY MOM WAS SO DEHYDRATED.
SHE WAS TRYING TO DRINK FROM THE
CALL BUTTON. 
>> Andrew: DISTURBING NEW 
DETAILS IN ONE OF THE DEADLIEST 
OUTBREAKS IN A CANADIAN 
LONG-TERM CARE HOME. 
>>> TORY LEADERSHIP CANDIDATES 
SQUARE OFF. 
"AT ISSUE"'S GOT YOU COVERED.
>>> AND THE WHITE HOUSE BASHES 
BOLTON'S BOOK.
>> HE'S DOING IT FOR THE MONEY.
>> Andrew: THE DEMOCRATS JUST 
BASH BOLTON.
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."

>> Andrew: NDP LEADER JAGMEET 
SINGH IS NOT APOLOGIZING FOR THE
REMARK THAT GOT HIM EJECTED FROM
THE HOUSE OF COMMONS YESTERDAY.
INSTEAD, HE'S FOCUSING ON THE 
ISSUE HE SAYS TRIGGERED IT.
>> PEOPLE HAVE SAID THAT I'VE 
STOOD UP TO SYSTEMIC RACISM AND 
BY NOT APOLOGIZING I'VE SAID 
THAT I'M NOT GOING TO APOLOGIZE 
FOR WANTING TO MAKE THINGS 
BETTER FOR PEOPLE.
IT'S FOR THEM THAT I WAS 
FRUSTRATED AND ANGRY, AND IT'S 
FOR THEM THAT I'M GOING TO 
CONTINUE TO FIGHT.
>> Andrew: DURING A MOTION 
CALLING ON PARLIAMENT TO 
ACKNOWLEDGE SYSTEMIC RACISM 
WITHIN THE RCMP, A BLOC M.P. 
OBJECTED.
THAT WAS JUST A PART OF WHAT 
INFURIATED THE NDP LEADER, 
SETTING IN MOTION THE EVENTS NOW
SHINING MORE LIGHT ON ISSUES OF 
RACE, AUTHORITY AND POWER AND 
HOW THEY ARE DEBATED.
JAGMEET SINGH DID RETURN TO THE 
HOUSE TODAY, AND AS EVAN DYER 
SHOWS US, NOW THE PRIME MINISTER
HIMSELF IS WEIGHING IN.
>> [INDISCERNIBLE].
>> Reporter: IT WAS THAT WORD, 
RACIST, THAT GOT JAGMEET SINGH 
EXPELLED YESTERDAY FROM THE 
HOUSE WHERE INSULTING OTHER 
MEMBERS IS BANNED.
SINGH SAYS IT WASN'T JUST THE 
BLOC MEMBER'S DECISION TO OPPOSE
HIS MOTION ON SYSTEMIC RACISM 
THAT ANGERED HIM, BUT A GESTURE 
THAT ACCOMPANIED IT.
>> HE JUST KIND OF BRUSH HIS 
HAND, DISMISS IT, AND IN THAT 
MOMENT I GOT ANGRY. 
>> MR. THERRIEN DID NOTHING. 
>> Reporter: THE BLOC'S LEADER 
TODAY SAID SINGH OWES M.P. ALAIN
THERRIEN AN APOLOGY.
THAT HE ALSO ACKNOWLEDGED THAT 
SINGH'S LIFE EXPERIENCES MIGHT 
LEAD HIM TO SEE THINGS 
DIFFERENTLY.
>> WE MUST NOT ADMIT WHAT HE HAS
SAID BECAUSE OF THAT, BUT WE 
MUST FEEL COMPASSION FOR WHAT HE
HAS GONE THROUGH WHEN HE WAS A 
CHILD.
AND I SINCERELY BELIEVE THAT 
MR. SINGH IS A GOOD PERSON.
>> Reporter: SINGH'S PARTY SAYS 
HE HAS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR,
AND TODAY HE RETURNED TO THE 
HOUSE.
[ FRENCH ]. 
BLOC MEMBERS ASKED THE SPEAKER 
TO REMOVE HIM, BUT ANTHONY ROTA 
SAID HE HASN'T YET DECIDED HOW 
TO PROCEED.
HE ALLOWED SINGH TO SPEAK.
>> ADDRESS THE SYSTEMIC RACISM 
IN THE RCMP.
>> Reporter: AND SINGH DID, 
PRESSING THE PRIME MINISTER ON 
THE SAME ISSUE.
OF RCMP RACISM.
>> Prime Minister Trudeau: WE 
NEED TO TAKE CONCRETE ACTION.
>> Reporter: TRUDEAU APPEARED TO
AGREE AND OUTSIDE THE HOUSE 
TO SIDE WITH SINGH.
>> Prime Minister Trudeau: IT IS
NOT FOR ME TO CRITICIZE ANY 
CANADIAN, PARTICULARLY NOT THE 
ONLY RACIALIZED LEADER IN THE 
HOUSE OF COMMONS FOR MAKING 
OTHER PEOPLE UNCOMFORTABLE BY 
CALLING THEM OUT FOR NOT 
RECOGNIZING SYSTEMIC 
DISCRIMINATION.
>> I DO BELIEVE IT DOES EXIST, 
AND IT MUST BE ADDRESSED AS AN 
ISSUE.
>> Reporter: THE BLOC LEADER 
SAYS HIS PARTY ONLY OPPOSED 
SINGH'S MOTION OVER A PROCEDURAL
ISSUE.
TODAY SINGH STUCK TO HIS 
POSITION THAT HE'S NOT 
APOLOGIZING. 
>> I'LL BE BETRAYING ALL THESE 
PEOPLE WHO NOW FEEL LIKE THEY 
MATTER BECAUSE SOMEONE SAID, YOU
KNOW WHAT, THIS IS A PROBLEM, 
AND I'M NOT GOING TO BACK DOWN 
FROM IT. 
>> Reporter: AND SO THE STANDOFF
COMES BACK TO SPEAKER ANTHONY 
ROTA WHO MUST NOW DECIDE WHETHER
TO SANCTION SINGH BEFORE THE 
HOUSE MEETS AGAIN IN THREE 
WEEKS.
EVAN DYER, CBC NEWS, CHELSEA, 
QUEBEC. 
>> Andrew: THE FOUR CONSERVATIVE
PARTY LEADERSHIP CANDIDATES HAVE
WRAPPED THEIR FIRST ENGLISH 
LANGUAGE DEBATE IN TORONTO.
CATHERINE CULLEN WATCHED IT 
ALL VERY CLOSELY.
>> WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE THE 
PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA?
>> Reporter: IT WAS A MIX OF 
TOOTH ACHINGLY SWEET.
>> MAX, IT'S SIMPLE.
I'M A PATRIOT.
>> YOU'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO 
GROW UP AND LIVE OUT YOUR 
DREAMS.
>> I BELIEVE THAT THE CHILDREN 
ARE THE FUTURE. 
>> Reporter: AND DIRE WARNING. 
>> WE SEE A CRACKDOWN ON FREE 
SPEECH.
>> WE ALSO NEED TO MAKE SURE 
THAT WE DO NOT IMPOSE EUTHANASIA
ON THESE SENIORS. 
>> I KNOW YOU PROBABLY ENJOY 
PLAYING THOSE GAMES SOMETIMES 
AND BEING ONLINE, BUT LET'S BE 
CAREFUL OF THE VULNERABILITIES. 
>> Reporter: THEY CLASHED ON A 
FEW ISSUES, LIKE THE BEST WAY TO
ENCOURAGE BUSINESS TO CUT 
EMISSIONS.
>> HE'S ALSO TALKED ABOUT HOW WE
ARE SUBSIDIZING THE ENERGY.
>> Reporter: BUT IT NEVER HIT 
THE LEVELS OF FRUSTRATION FROM 
LAST NIGHT'S FRENCH LANGUAGE 
DEBATE.
[ FRENCH ]
IN FACT, ERIN O'TOOLE TRIED TO 
AVOID SOUNDING TOO ANGRY. 
>> I AM A BIT ANGRY WITH WHAT 
JUSTIN TRUDEAU HAS DONE TO THIS 
COUNTRY. 
>> Reporter: WHILE THEY DIDN'T 
OFTEN CHALLENGE EACH OTHER. 
>> I'M TALKING. 
>> IT'S A REDUCTION PLAN.
I DIDN'T INTERRUPT YOU.
>> Reporter: IT DID WADE INTO 
SOME CHALLENGING ISSUES. 
>> MY QUESTION IS WHAT ARE YOUR 
THOUGHTS ON SYSTEMIC RACISM AND 
HOW WOULD YOU DEMONSTRATE 
LEADERSHIP IN THAT AREA.
>> I THINK WE HAVE TO 
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SYSTEMIC RACISM
EXISTS. 
>> BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THAT WE 
SHOULD CALL CANADA A RACIST 
COUNTRY. 
>> WE NEED TO LOOK AT HOW WE CAN
MODIFY CERTAIN INSTITUTIONS, 
SUCH AS OUR POLICE.
>> WE WANT MERIT AND SUCCESS TO 
BE THE BEST, NOT THE COLOUR OF 
SOMEONE'S SKIN.
>> Reporter: BUT DOES THAT MEAN 
O'TOOLE ACCEPTS THAT SYSTEMIC 
RACISM EXISTS?
HE WOULDN'T SAY THE PHRASE 
"SYSTEMIC RACISM." 
>> THERE IS RACISM IN CANADA, 
AND WE HAVE TO HAVE A COMMITMENT
TO STAMP IT OUT.
>> Reporter: MacKAY WAS ASKED AS
A FORMER JUSTICE MINISTER ABOUT 
HIS RESPONSIBILITY IN 
PERPETRATING SYSTEMIC RACISM.
DIDN'T QUITE ANSWER THAT.
>> OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM IS 
PREDICATED ON ACCOUNTABILITY, ON
VERY MUCH IMPROVING PEOPLE'S 
LIVES.
>> Reporter: CONSERVATIVE VOTERS
STILL HAVE ABOUT TWO MONTHS TO 
MAKE UP THEIR MIND, MAIL-IN 
BALLOTS ARE DUE AUGUST 21.
CATHERINE CULLEN, CBC NEWS, 
OTTAWA.
>> Andrew: OKAY, SO LET'S CHECK 
IN WITH OUR CHIEF POLITICAL 
CORRESPONDENT.
ROSIE, WHAT LEAPT OUT AT YOU 
DURING THAT DEBATE?
>> Rosemary: A COUPLE OF THINGS.
FIRST, THE LACK OF FIREWORKS, IF
YOU WILL.
THE FEW WE GOT WERE IN 
CATHERINE'S PIECE THERE, AND I 
THINK THAT ALWAYS MAKES THINGS 
CHALLENGING FOR MEMBERS WHO ARE 
TRYING TO DECIDE WHO THEY WANT 
TO VOTE FOR.
A COUPLE OTHER THINGS.
THERE WERE A COUPLE OF SMALL 
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS FROM THE FRONT 
RUNNERS ABOUT WHAT WENT WRONG IN
THE LAST ELECTION.
ERIN O'TOOLE POINTING OUT THAT 
IN ORDER TO WIN THEY NEED TO WIN
URBAN AND SUBURBAN CANADA.
WE CERTAINLY KNOW THAT.
THE CONSERVATIVES GOT THE 
POPULAR VOTE BUT DIDN'T REALLY 
PICK UP ANY OF THOSE SEATS.
AND PETER MacKAY MAKING AN 
APPEAL THAT THAT BIG BLUE TENT 
HAS TO WIDEN.
THEY HAVE TO PUSH THAT TENT IN A
BROADER WAY TO BRING IN MORE 
CANADIANS SO THEY CAN WIN.
REMEMBER THIS DEBATE, THOUGH, 
WAS FOR CONSERVATIVE MEMBERS.
AND IT REALLY PLAYS TO THE KINDS
OF THINGS THAT THEY WANT TO HEAR
WHEN WE GET TO THE POINT WHERE 
ONE OF THESE CANDIDATES IS IN A 
GENERAL ELECTION, THAT'S A WHOLE
OTHER GAME.
>> Andrew: RIGHT, SO YOU GOT TO 
WONDER, WHAT WILL ALL OF THIS 
HAVE CHANGED FOR THOSE 
CONSERVATIVE MEMBERS?
>> Rosemary: I DON'T KNOW IF IT 
WILL HAVE CHANGED A WHOLE LOT, 
BUT REMEMBER, THIS IS A RANKED 
BALLOT, SO THOSE SECOND AND 
THIRD CHOICES ARE JUST AS 
IMPORTANT AS THE FIRST ONE.
SO PERHAPS THE FIGHT TONIGHT WAS
TO FIND OUT WHO THE SECOND AND 
THIRD CHOICE WOULD BE FOR SOME 
PEOPLE.
ULTIMATELY THAT MAY WELL BE WHAT
DECIDES WHO THE NEXT 
CONSERVATIVE LEADER WILL BE.
>> Andrew: ALL RIGHT, ROSIE, AND
OF COURSE WE'LL ALL BE SURE TO 
STICK AROUND FOR "AT ISSUE" IN 
ABOUT 20 MINUTES' TIME.
THANKS SO MUCH.
>>> THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC IS NOW
A HUNDRED DAYS OLD, AND CANADA 
HAS JUST PASSED ANOTHER 
MILESTONE.
THE COUNTRY HAS NOW HAD MORE 
THAN 100,000 CASES, NEARLY 8400 
OF THEM FATAL, BUT MOST PEOPLE 
RECOVER.
ONLY ABOUT 30,000 CASES ARE 
ACTIVE RIGHT NOW.
SO HOW DID WE GET HERE?
WELL, THIS IS THE DAILY RATE OF 
NEW CASES.
THE CURVE IS NOW MORE THAN JUST 
FLAT, IT'S CRUSHED, WITH A CLEAR
DOWNWARD TREND.
AND LOOK AT THE DAILY RECOVERIES
FROM THE VIRUS.
AROUND TWO WEEKS AGO A CRITICAL 
POINT WHEN THEY BEGAN TO SURPASS
THE RATE OF NEW INFECTIONS.
THIS IS THE PICTURE OF A COUNTRY
BEATING BACK ITS FIRST WAVE.
BUT, AS CANADA'S CHIEF PUBLIC 
HEALTH OFFICER WARNED RECENTLY, 
A SINGLE CASE CAN TRIGGER 
ANOTHER OUTBREAK AND UNDO THE 
TREND.
THAT'S WHY CONTACT TRACING IS SO
CRITICAL, AND  SALIMAH SHIVJI 
SHOWS US, OTTAWA HAS A NEW TOOL 
THAT IT HOPES CAN HELP.
>> Prime Minister Trudeau: WE'VE
BEEN WORKING ON A NATIONWIDE 
MOBILE APP. 
>> Reporter: IT'S BEEN PROMISED 
FOR WEEKS.
NOW IT'S ABOUT TO BE TESTED.
ONE APP FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRY, 
THE GOAL, TRACE THE VIRUS.
>> Prime Minister Trudeau: IT 
FUNCTIONS ENTIRELY ON AN 
ANONYMISED BASIS.
THERE ARE NO IDENTIFIERS OF YOUR
PHONE, OF YOUR NUMBER, OF YOUR 
IDENTITY, OF YOUR ADDRESS, OR 
EVEN OF YOUR LOCATION.
>> Reporter: THE PRIME MINISTER 
TAKING PAINS TO ALLAY PRIVACY 
CONCERNS, EVEN THOUGH THE 
PRIVACY COMMISSIONER HASN'T YET 
SIGNED OFF ON IT.
THE APP USES BLUETOOTH, LESS 
INVASIVE THAN GPS, AND TRACKS 
WHO YOU'VE BEEN NEXT TO, NOT 
WHERE YOU'VE BEEN.
OTTAWA SAYS THE DATA WON'T BE 
KEPT.
>> THE BLUETOOTH MODEL IS THE 
MOST PRIVACY PROTECTED, BUT IT'S
ALSO LEAST AMBITIOUS.
IT'S AN EXPERIMENT, AND IT MAY 
WORK, AND IT MAY NOT WORK.
>> Reporter: IF YOU'VE BEEN IN 
CONTACT WITH SOMEONE WHO HAS 
COVID-19, YOU'LL GET AN ALERT ON
YOUR PHONE, TELLING YOU TO CALL 
PUBLIC HEALTH AUTHORITIES.
THE ONLY PROBLEM IS, YOU BOTH 
NEED TO HAVE DOWNLOADED THE APP.
IN OTHER COUNTRIES, THAT'S BEEN 
AN ISSUE, LOW INTEREST RENDERING
THE APP FAR LESS EFFECTIVE.
>> Prime Minister Trudeau: IT'S 
SUCH A SIMPLE PROCEDURE.
YOU DOWNLOAD IT FOR FREE, YOU 
LEAVE IT IN THE BACK OF YOUR 
PHONE, AND YOU FORGET ABOUT IT. 
>> Reporter: AND SO JUSTIN 
TRUDEAU IS CAJOLING CANADIANS.
THE MORE BUY-IN FOR THE NATIONAL
APP, THE BETTER.
60% UPTAKE IS THE GOLD STANDARD 
THAT NO OTHER COUNTRY HAS 
ACHIEVED.
BUT THE GOVERNMENT HOPES EVEN 
SOME UPTAKE IS BETTER THAN 
NOTHING.
AN ADDITIONAL DIGITAL TOOL TO 
COMPLEMENT MANUAL TRACING WITH 
REOPENING AND FEARS OF A SECOND 
WAVE LURKING.
SALIMAH SHIVJI, CBC NEWS, 
OTTAWA.
>> Andrew: TONIGHT WE HAVE NEW 
EVIDENCE OF NEGLECT AT ORCHARD 
VILLA.
THAT'S THE LONG-TERM CARE HOME 
WITH ONTARIO'S HIGHEST DEATH 
TOLL FROM COVID-19.
YOU'LL RECALL ON TUESDAY NIGHT 
DAVID COMMON LOOKED INTO WHY 
THOSE 78 LIVES WERE LOST.
TODAY HE SHOWS US WHAT THE 
PROVINCE'S OWN INSPECTORS KNEW.
>> Reporter: WHEN THE DOORS 
CLOSED TO OUTSIDERS, MARIE TRIPP
COULD STILL SEE INSIDE ORCHARD 
VILLA.
A LIVE VIDEO FEED FROM HER 
MOTHER'S ROOM THAT STUNNED HER. 
>> MY MOM WAS SO DEHYDRATED.
SHE HAD THE CALL BUTTON IN HER 
HAND.
SHE WAS TRYING TO DRINK FROM THE
CALL BUTTON. 
>> Reporter: TRIPP BELIEVES NO 
ONE WAS BRINGING HER MOM WATER. 
>> THEY WERE SO SHORT STAFFED. 
>> Premier Doug Ford: WE DIDN'T 
KNOW THE FULL EXTENT OF WHAT 
THESE HOMES, WHAT THESE 
RESIDENTS WERE DEALING WITH.
>> Reporter: ONTARIO'S PREMIER 
HAS SAID HE DIDN'T KNOW HOW BAD 
IT WAS UNTIL THE MILITARY MOVED 
IN, REPORTING ON CONDITIONS.
BUT JUST-RELEASED REPORTS SHOW 
HIS GOVERNMENT'S OWN INSPECTORS 
WERE CALLED IN FOR MULTIPLE 
ISSUES, EVEN VISITING UP TO THE 
DAY THE HOME WAS LOCKED DOWN.
WARNING A RESIDENT HAS BEEN 
DRESSED IN STAINED CLOTHING, 
RESIDENTS WHO DID NOT RECEIVE 
SCHEDULED BATHS OR SHOWERS, ON 
SHIFTS THAT WERE SHORT STAFFED.
ALLEGATIONS RESIDENTS WERE 
FACING VERBAL AND PHYSICAL ABUSE
FROM STAFF, CAPTURED BY A VIDEO 
CAMERA, BUT WASN'T IMMEDIATELY 
REPORTED, IN CONTRAVENTION OF 
THE RULES.
>> I DON'T SEE HOW THERE'S A WAY
AROUND PULLING THEIR LICENSE. 
>> Reporter: THIS NDP M.P.P. 
QUESTIONS WHY AFTER YEARS OF 
DOCUMENTED PROBLEMS THINGS 
DIDN'T CHANGE UNTIL DOZENS HAD 
DIED.
>> IT'S INFURIATING TO KNOW THEY
HAD ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION.
THEY'VE KNOWN ABOUT IT.
THEY HAVE CHOSEN TO JUST KIND OF
LET IT SIT TO ALLOW A HOME LIKE 
THIS TO CONTINUE.
>> Reporter: IN A STATEMENT, 
ONTARIO'S GOVERNMENT SAYS THE 
MILITARY WAS THERE PRECISELY 
BECAUSE WE KNEW THIS HOME WAS IN
DIRE NEED OF SUPPORT.
WHILE ORCHARD VILLA SAYS IT WILL
ADDRESS THE FINDINGS IN THE 
INSPECTION REPORTS, NOTING SOME 
STAFF ARE NO LONGER WITH THE 
HOME.
>> WE CALLED HER THE QUEEN OF 
THE FAMILY.
>> Reporter: WHATEVER CHANGES 
MIGHT HAPPEN NOW COME TOO LATE 
FOR TRIPP'S MOM, MARY WALSH.
SHE IS AMONG THE 78 DEAD AT 
ORCHARD VILLA.
DAVID COMMON, CBC NEWS, TORONTO.
>> Andrew: AND DAVID AND HIS 
TEAM HAVE PRODUCED A FULL 
DOCUMENTARY ON WHAT HAPPENED 
INSIDE ORCHARD VILLA AS THE 
OUTBREAK UNFOLDED AND AS 
FAMILIES PLEADED FOR ANSWERS.
YOU CAN WATCH THAT ON OUR 
YouTube PAGE, 
YouTube.COM/CBCTHENATIONAL.
>>> WELL, FOLKS WITH RELATIVES 
IN ONTARIO CARE HOMES CAN 
FINALLY VISIT THEM, AS OF TODAY,
BUT THERE ARE LIMITATIONS, AND 
AS ELLEN MAURO SHOWS US, SOME 
FEEL THAT COULD ACTUALLY HARM 
PATIENTS. 
>> THIS HAS BEEN THE WORST THREE
MONTHS OF MY LIFE. 
>> Reporter: DURING THAT TIME, 
SHERRI ZIELINSKI COULD ONLY PEER
AT HER MOTHER THROUGH A WINDOW.
>> I KNOW THAT SHE'S VERY WEAK 
AND SHE'S VERY FRAIL.
>> Reporter: NOW THEY ARE ABOUT 
TO SIT DOWN TOGETHER, ALTHOUGH 
AT A DISTANCE.
>> I AM VERY ANXIOUS.
I'M NOT SURE HOW IT WILL GO.
I DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S GOING TO 
BE ELATED.
I DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S GOING TO 
BE UPSET. 
>> Reporter: BEFORE A 
TEMPERATURE CHECK FOR ZIELINSKI,
FLOWERS IN TOW, A TOKEN OF LOVE 
FOR HER MOTHER MARGARET WHO 
RECOVERED FROM COVID WHILE SO 
MANY OTHERS DIDN'T. 
>> Premier Doug Ford: WE JUST 
DON'T WANT ANOTHER OUTBREAK. 
>> Reporter: TODAY ONTARIO'S 
PREMIER DEFENDED THE TIGHT 
RESTRICTIONS ON VISITS.
NO ONE IS ALLOWED INSIDE, 
NEGATIVE COVID TESTS ARE 
REQUIRED, AND HOMES CAN LIMIT 
VISITS TO ONCE A WEEK FOR 30 
MINUTES.
SINCE FAMILIES OFTEN PROVIDE 
ESSENTIAL CARE IN HOMES, THIS 
DOCTOR SAYS THE RESTRICTIONS GO 
TOO FAR.
>> THEY ARE ACTUALLY DOING THE 
WORK IN THESE NURSING HOMES, AND
THEY ARE A PART OF THE HEALTH 
CARE TEAM.
>> Reporter: ANIL REDDI TOOK 
CARE OF HIS MOTHER EVERY DAY, A 
PROMISE HE MADE AFTER HER 
DEMENTIA DIAGNOSIS.
>> I'M THE ONE THAT TUCKED HER 
INTO BED EVERY NIGHT.
I WOULD PUT HER NIGHTIE ON, 
BRUSH HER TEETH, COMB HER HAIR, 
GIVE HER HER MEDS. 
>> Reporter: HE'S TERRIFIED OF 
HOW SHE'S COPING WITHOUT HIM.
>> SHE MUST BE ABSOLUTELY 
SHATTERED.
ALL OF A SUDDEN HER SON NEVER 
SEES HER ANYMORE.
IN HER MIND, SHE PROBABLY THINKS
I'M DEAD. 
>> Reporter: AFTER HALF AN HOUR 
UNDER A GAZEBO, IT WAS TIME FOR 
ZIELINSKI TO GO.
THE MOTHER WITH THOSE FLOWERS 
AND ZIELINSKI HAPPY BUT EAGER 
FOR A FUTURE WITHOUT 
RESTRICTIONS. 
>> I PROMISED HER WE'D GO FOR 
ICE CREAM AND WE WOULD GO DOWN 
TO THE LAKE AND THAT WOULD BE 
OUR NEXT STEP FOR SURE. 
>> Reporter: IT'S STILL LIKELY 
FAR AWAY, BUT THE HOPE IS THERE.
ELLEN MAURO, CBC NEWS, TORONTO.
>> Andrew: NOW CRITICAL FOR 
MOVING PAST THE PANDEMIC, AN 
EFFECTIVE VACCINE, AND THE WORLD
HEALTH ORGANIZATION SAYS IT'S 
ALREADY PREPARING FOR THAT 
MOMENT.
>> WE ARE HOPING THAT IN 2021 
THAT WE WILL HAVE 2 BILLION 
DOSES OF ONE OR TWO OR THREE 
EFFECTIVE VACCINES TO BE 
DISTRIBUTED AROUND THE WORLD.
>> Andrew: IT'S PRETTY 
AMBITIOUS, CONSIDERING THE 
NUMBER OF VIABLE VACCINES NOW IS
ZERO.
SO THREE CANDIDATES ARE ON THE 
VERGE OF MOVING TO LARGE-SCALE 
HUMAN TRIALS.
THE W.H.O. IS WORKING ON PLANS 
FOR THE WORLD'S FRONT-LINE 
HEALTH WORKERS, AS WELL AS 
VULNERABLE POPULATIONS TO BE THE
ONES TO GET THE FIRST DOSES.
>>> OKAY, AMONG THE OTHER 
STORIES WE ARE FOLLOWING 
TONIGHT, ONTARIO'S POLICE 
WATCHDOG IS INVESTIGATING AFTER 
A DEVASTATING CRASH KILLED A 
MOTHER AND HER THREE YOUNG 
DAUGHTERS. 
>> ANY TIME WE ATTEND TO AN 
INCIDENT INVOLVING CHILDREN, 
ESPECIALLY ONE WHERE CHILDREN 
HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES, IT'S
DEVASTATING.
>> Andrew: NOW IT'S STILL 
UNCLEAR WHAT ROLE POLICE MAY 
HAVE PLAYED IN THE CRASH AND WHY
THE S.I.U. HAS BEEN CALLED IN, 
BUT INVESTIGATORS SAY A PEEL 
REGIONAL POLICE OFFICER WAS IN 
THE AREA WHEN THE CRASH 
HAPPENED.
A 20-YEAR-OLD MAN REMAINS IN 
HOSPITAL IN SERIOUS CONDITION. 
>>> FORMER NHLER DANIEL CARCILLO
IS LEADING A CLASS ACTION 
LAWSUIT AGAINST THE CANADIAN

UNDERAGE PLAYERS BY SENIOR 
PLAYERS, TEAM STAFF AND COACHES 
IN THE CHL'S THREE MAJOR JUNIOR

THE LEAGUE ITSELF HAS NOT YET 
COMMENTED ON THE SUIT, AND THE

CERTIFIED BY A COURT.

TORONTO WAS FOUND VANDALIZED 
THIS MORNING WITH ITS FACE 
COVERED IN BLACK PAINT.
THE POLICE'S HATE CRIMES UNIT IS

HAVE ALREADY REMOVED THE PAINT.
>>> WELL, WITH ALL THE 
INSTITUTIONS BEING CALLED OUT ON
ALLEGATIONS OF SYSTEMIC 
DISCRIMINATION, THE CANADIAN 
HUMAN RIGHTS MUSEUM PROBABLY 
WOULDN'T SPRING TO MIND.
ALLEGATIONS ARE BEING MADE 
AGAINST IT, SEEMINGLY WITH 
CONSEQUENCES.
AUSTIN GRABISH EXPLAINS.
>> Reporter: THE SIDEWALK 
PAINTED WITH THE COLOURS OF THE 
PRIDE FLAG, RIGHT NEXT TO THE 
CANADIAN MUSEUM FOR HUMAN 
RIGHTS, BUT SUPPORT FOR LGTB 
PEOPLE ISN'T WHAT GABRIELA 
AGUERO SAW INSIDE.
SHE SAID SHE WAS ASKED TO SHIELD
GAY CONTENT FROM SOME TOUR 
GROUPS.
>> IT WAS HORRENDOUS.
THEN I HAD TO GO SIT WITH MY GAY
FRIENDS ON STAFF AND TELL THEM I
HAD DONE THAT.
>> Reporter: THE MUSEUM SAYS IT 
NO LONGER ASKS STAFF TO BLOCK 
GAY MATERIAL.
IT CONFIRMS FROM 2015 UNTIL THE 
MIDDLE OF 2017 SCHOOLS COULD ASK
FOR SEXUAL ORIENTATION AND 
GENDER IDENTITY CONTENT TO BE 
EXCLUDED.
>> SEEING THE WAY PEOPLE ARE 
JUST KIND OF DISREGARDED.
>> Reporter: THIS CURRENT 
EMPLOYEE SAYS THE PRACTICE WAS 
DONE WITH GROUPS OF ALL AGES, 
INCLUDING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS.
CBC NEWS HAS AGREED TO CONCEAL 
THEIR IDENTITY BECAUSE THEY FEAR
FOR THEIR JOB.
THE STAFFER SAYS IN ONE CASE AN 
EMPLOYEE WHO WAS FROM THE LGTB 
COMMUNITY WAS ASKED TO 
PHYSICALLY BLOCK THE SAME-SEX 
MARRIAGE DISPLAY.
THE EMPLOYEE SAYS NOW SOME 
RELIGIOUS SCHOOLS WILL BLOCK THE
DISPLAY THEMSELVES AND SAYS IT'S
NOT JUST SCHOOLS WHO REQUEST 
CONTENT BE OMITTED. 
>> OTHER SPECIAL VISITORS COULD 
BE DIPLOMATS, THEY COULD BE 
DONORS.

CASES OF SELF-CENSORSHIP.
OF LGTBQ REALITIES AT THE

SHOULD NOT BE PERCEIVED AS 
CONDONING HOMOPHOBIA OR ENGAGE 
IN SELF-CENSORSHIP.
>> Reporter: TONIGHT THE CEO HAS
ANNOUNCED HE WON'T SEEK 
REAPPOINTMENT WHEN HIS TERM IS 
DONE IN AUGUST.
JOHN YOUNG SAYS THE IDEA THE

>> Andrew: ONE OF CANADA'S 
BIGGEST SCHOOL BOARDS HAS ASKED 
FOR PROVINCIAL HELP IN STOPPING 
SYSTEMIC RACISM IN ITS OWN 
SCHOOLS.
IN ONTARIO'S PEEL DISTRICT, JUST
OUTSIDE TORONTO, BLACK STUDENTS 
ARE SUSPENDED FAR MORE OFTEN 
THAN WHITE STUDENTS.
AND AS DEANA SUMANAC-JOHNSON 
TELLS US, ACCUSATIONS OF 
ANTI-BLACK RACISM GO BACK YEARS.
[ Chanting ]
>> Reporter: THE FIGHT AGAINST 
RACISM ONCE AGAIN TOOK PLACE IN 
THE STREETS, BUT ALSO INSIDE 
THIS SLEEPY LOOKING ROOM WHERE 
SCHOOL BOARD TRUSTEES DEMANDED 
THAT THE PROVINCE APPOINT A 
SUPERVISOR TO TAKE OVER THE PEEL
DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD AND MAKE 
ITS PLEDGE TO GET RID OF RACISM 
IN ITS SCHOOLS A REALITY.
IT'S WELCOME NEWS TO THIS CITY 
COUNCILLOR AND MOM OF THREE KIDS
WHO ATTEND LOCAL SCHOOLS.
>> THE PEEL DISTRICT SCHOOL 
BOARD IS NOT HAVING -- MAKING 
SURE ALL OF OUR KIDS ACHIEVE.
THEY ARE ESSENTIALLY THROWING 
AWAY TAXPAYERS' MONEY, SO IT'S 
NOT JUST AN ISSUE FOR THE BLACK 
COMMUNITY.
IT'S AN ISSUE FOR ALL TAXPAYERS.
>> Reporter: THERE HAVE BEEN A 
SERIES OF INCIDENTS CASTING
HARSH LIGHT ON THE BOARD AND ITS
ATTITUDES TOWARDS ITS BLACK 
STUDENTS RIGHT HERE IN ONE OF 
THE MOST DIVERSE REGIONS IN THE 
COUNTRY.
FROM A SCHOOL CALLING THE POLICE
ON A 6-YEAR-OLD GIRL TO A SCHOOL
BOARD TRUSTEE REFERRING TO A 
SCHOOL WITH A LARGE BLACK 
POPULATION AS McCRIMINAL.
THE GOVERNMENT INQUIRY FOUND 
MORE, LIKE THAT BLACK STUDENTS 
WERE DISCOURAGED FROM PURSUING 
UNIVERSITY-BOUND COURSES.
STILL, EVEN AS MANY GROUPS CALL 
FOR HIS RESIGNATION, PEEL'S 
DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION SAYS HE'S 
HOPEFUL.
>> THE SUPERVISOR WILL CREATE 
THOSE OPPORTUNITIES FOR US TO DO
THE WORK WE MUST DO AND HOLD US 
ACCOUNTABLE.

INTENTION OF THE GOVERNMENT IS 
TO DO SO, MOVE QUICKLY, SEND IN 
A STRONG CANDIDATE WHO CAN DRIVE
CHANGE. 
>> I THINK WE'RE ALL GOING TO BE
WATCHING VERY CLOSELY.

REST OF CANADA IS WATCHING TOO, 
THAT RACISM AND INJUSTICE CAN 
AFFECT EVEN THE YOUNGEST OF 
KIDS, EVEN IN THE MOST DIVERSE 
OF AREAS.

>> I DON'T THINK HE'S FIT FOR 
OFFICE.
I DON'T THINK HE HAS THE 
COMPETENCE TO CARRY OUT THE JOB.
THERE REALLY ISN'T ANY GUIDING 
PRINCIPLE THAT I WAS ABLE TO 
DISCERN, OTHER THAN WHAT'S GOOD 
FOR DONALD TRUMP'S RE-ELECTION.
>> Reporter: DEMOCRATS ARE ANGRY
BOLTON IS ONLY GOING PUBLIC NOW 
BECAUSE SOME OF THE ALLEGATIONS 
ARE SIMILAR TO WHAT WAS 
UNCOVERED DURING TRUMP'S 
IMPEACHMENT TRIAL. 
>> A GOOD MORNING IT IS.
HE CHOSE ROYALTY OVER 
PATRIOTISM.
AND SO IS GOING TO MAKE MONEY 
OFF OF HIS BOOK, I GUESS.
>> Reporter: BOLTON WRITES THAT 
TRUMP USED U.S. FOREIGN POLICY 
FOR HIS OWN POLITICAL GAINS, 
PLEADING WITH CHINA'S PRESIDENT 
TO HELP HIM WIN THE 2020 
ELECTION BY PURCHASING MORE 
AMERICAN SOYBEANS AND WHEAT SO 
HE COULD SHORE UP THE VOTES OF 
FARMERS.
THE PRESIDENT WAS IMPEACHED FOR 
WITHHOLDING HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS IN AID TO UKRAINE, 
DEMANDING THAT COUNTRY 
INVESTIGATE HIS POLITICAL 
RIVALS.
>> THE PORTRAIT IT PAINTS OF THE
PRESIDENT IS ONE THAT WE KNOW TO
BE ALL TOO TRUE, SOMEBODY WHO 
PUTS HIS OWN PERSONAL INTEREST 
ABOVE THE NATIONAL INTEREST.
>> Reporter: IF IMPEACHMENT IS 
ANY GUIDE, THESE STARTLING NEW 
ALLEGATIONS MAY NOT DO MUCH TO 
HURT TRUMP.
EARLIER THIS YEAR WHEN HE WAS 
ACQUITTED BY THE SENATE, HIS 
APPROVAL RATINGS WERE IN THE MID
TO HIGH 40S, SOME OF HIS HIGHEST
NUMBERS.
THOUGH HIS POLITICAL CHALLENGES 
NOW IF ANYTHING HAVE MULTIPLIED.
KATIE SIMPSON, CBC NEWS, 
WASHINGTON.
>> Andrew: AND STILL AHEAD ON 
"THE NATIONAL," CANADA'S TOP 
GROCERY CHAINS CUT PANDEMIC PAY.
>> THE BUSINESS IS NOT SLOWING 
DOWN, SO WHY AREN'T THEY SHARING
THE WEALTH WITH THE EMPLOYEES?
>> Andrew: GROCERY STORE WORKERS
WERE DECLARED ESSENTIAL AND PAID
A FEW EXTRA DOLLARS AN HOUR, 
UNTIL NOW.
HEAR WHY OTTAWA IS GETTING 
INVOLVED.
BUT FIRST, ROSIE, OVER TO YOU.
>> Rosemary: ANDREW, WE'RE GOING
TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK TONIGHT AT
THE CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP 
DEBATE.
THE FOUR CONTENDERS, THE BIG 
ISSUES, WHAT'S NEXT FOR THE 
PARTY.
CHANTAL, ANDREW AND ALTHIA WILL 
JOIN ME RIGHT AFTER THE BREAK.
*
>> Rosemary: THE CONSERVATIVE 
LEADERSHIP DEBATE SQUARED OFF 
FOR THEIR FIRST OFFICIAL 
ELECTION -- ENGLISH, RATHER, 
DEBATE OF THE RACE TONIGHT, 
THEIR SECOND FACE-TO-FACE AFTER 
YESTERDAY'S FRENCH DEBATE AND 
MONTHS OF LOTS OF VIRTUAL 
CAMPAIGNING.
SO DID TONIGHT CHANGE ANYTHING?
IT'S THURSDAY, I'M HERE WITH "AT
ISSUE".
CHANTAL HEBERT, ANDREW COYNE AND
ALTHIA RAJ, GOOD TO SEE YOU ALL.
SO YOU WATCHED IT WITH ME -- 
WELL, WE DIDN'T ALL SIT IN THE 
SAME ROOM, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I 
MEAN.
WE'RE ALL WATCHING IT TOGETHER.
I EXPECTED IT TO BE A LITTLE 
MORE HEATED, TO HAVE A LITTLE 
MORE DISAGREEMENT, BUT IT 
DIDN'T, IN FACT, DO THAT.
WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF IT, 
CHANTAL?
>> IT WAS -- FOR THOSE OF US WHO
WATCHED BOTH DEBATES, IT WAS 
ALMOST DAY FOR NIGHT.
IN FRENCH, ERIN O'TOOLE AND 
PETER MacKAY WENT AT EACH OTHER 
TO THE POINT WHERE YOU COULD 
BARELY MAKE OUT IN SOME 
INSTANCES WHAT THEY WERE TRYING 
TO SAY OR WHAT THEY WERE ARGUING
ABOUT.
TONIGHT IT WAS LITERALLY THE 
OPPOSITE.
I SUSPECT THERE WERE DIFFERENT 
STRATEGIES IN PLAY IN BOTH 
CASES, BUT I'M NOT SURE THAT THE
OUTCOME IS VERY DIFFERENT IN THE
SENSE THAT AS EVERYTHING 
INDICATES PETER MacKAY WENT IN 
THERE AS THE FRONT RUNNER.
I DON'T THINK EITHER NIGHT DID 
ANY DAMAGE TO HIS RUN.
>> Rosemary: LAST NIGHT, ANDREW,
FOR PEOPLE THAT DIDN'T WATCH IN 
THE FRENCH DEBATE, ERIN O'TOOLE 
WAS FAIRLY AGGRESSIVE, AND IN 
FACT PETER MacKAY CALLED HIM OUT
AT ONE POINT SAYING HE WAS 
ANGRY, AND CLEARLY TONIGHT THERE
WAS A DIFFERENT ERIN O'TOOLE.
HE WAS MUCH MORE RESERVED.
WHY DO YOU THINK THAT CHANGE 
HAPPENED?
AND WOULD THAT HAVE CHANGED 
PEOPLE'S PERCEPTION OF HIM OR 
PETER MacKAY?
>> IT MAY BE JUST THE FORMAT.
SOMETIMES THE RULES CAN AFFECT 
THE WAY PEOPLE BEHAVE.
IT MAY ALSO BE THAT LOOKING AT 
THE NUMBERS THEY ARE THINKING 
THAT APPROACH WAS NOT GOING TO 
GET HIM CLOSE.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE BODY LANGUAGE
OF BOTH O'TOOLE AND MacKAY, YOU 
WOULD SAY MacKAY HAS THIS FAIRLY
COMFORTABLE -- HE WAS ON CRUISE 
CONTROL, AND MAYBE THAT O'TOOLE 
PEOPLE SAID YOU HAVE TO 
EMPHASIZE NOT JUST THE ATTACKS 
ON HIM BUT YOUR PLAN.
HE KEPT MENTIONING HIS PLAN, HIS
POSITIVE VISION, ET CETERA, THAT
THE PURE KIND OF PUNCHING 
APPROACH ISN'T GOING TO MAKE THE
YARDS THAT HE NEEDS.
>> Rosemary: HOW ABOUT YOU, 
ALTHIA?
WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF IT?
>> IT'S LIKE WE'RE WATCHING 
DEBATES HAPPENING IN TWO 
DIFFERENT COUNTRIES, FRANKLY.
AND IN SOME WAYS WE ARE.
I THINK WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY 
WAS THAT YOU HAD A VERY 
AGGRESSIVE DEBATE BETWEEN PETER 
MacKAY AND ERIN O'TOOLE, IN PART
BECAUSE THE TWO OTHER CANDIDATES
CAN'T SPEAK FRENCH VERY WELL, OR
IN ONE CASE NOT AT ALL.
AND YOU ALSO HAVE -- NEITHER 
CANDIDATE HAS A STRONG BASE OF 
SUPPORT, AND THE DYNAMIC THERE 
IN THE LAST CAMPAIGN REALLY 
REVOLVED AROUND SOCIAL ISSUES, 
ABORTION, PRIMARILY, AND SO YOU 
HAD NOT JUST ERIN O'TOOLE GOING 
AFTER PETER MacKAY YESTERDAY, 
BUT MR. MacKAY GOING AFTER 
MR. O'TOOLE, ARE YOU PRO-LIFE, 
PRO-CHOICE, WHEN WOULD YOU GIVE 
AN ANSWER ON THIS.
TODAY THE NON-ANSWER WAS REALLY 
ABOUT SYSTEMIC RACISM, FROM ERIN
O'TOOLE.
WE HARDLY TALKED ABOUT SOCIAL 
ISSUES IN THIS DEBATE ON 
THURSDAY.
INSTEAD WHAT YOU HAD REALLY WAS 
A CAMPAIGN FOR PLEASE RANK ME 
NUMBER TWO.
HOW MANY TIMES DID WE HEAR I 
AGREE WITH DR. LEWIS, I AGREE 
WITH DR. LEWIS, I TOO AGREE WITH
DR. LEWIS, AND IT WAS EXTREMELY 
MUTED.
THERE WERE VERY FEW POINTS OF 
DIVERGENCE BETWEEN THE 
CANDIDATES.
>> Rosemary: I REMEMBER -- 
>> IF I CAN.
>> Rosemary: GO AHEAD, CHANTAL. 
>> IF I CAN JUST GO BACK TO LAST
NIGHT, I THINK PART OF THE 
STRATEGY, AT LEAST ON THE PART 
OF ERIN O'TOOLE, IS HE WAS 
BELIEVED TO BE GOING IN WITH THE
LANGUAGE ADVANTAGE IN FRENCH, 
AND PETER MacKAY HAD THAT SHOWN 
AS A HUGE WEAKNESS.
AND THE AGGRESSIVITY IS ONE WAY 
TO UNSETTLE SOMEONE WHO'S NOT 
REALLY IN COMMAND OF THE 
LANGUAGE.
BUT IN THE END, IT DIDN'T PAN 
OUT.
MacKAY'S FRENCH IS STILL NOT 
EVEN ANDREW SCHEER'S LEVEL, BUT 
IT'S MUCH IMPROVED, AND IT WAS 
GOOD ENOUGH THAT, YOU KNOW, IF 
THE PLAN WAS THAT YOU SHOW ERIN 
O'TOOLE TO BE THE ONLY ONE WHO 
COULD GO IN THE FRENCH LANGUAGE 
DEBATE IN AN ELECTION AND PETER 
MacKAY IS NOT UP TO IT, IT 
FAILED.
BUT THAT REQUIRED MORE 
AGGRESSIVITY, OBVIOUSLY.
>> Rosemary: I REMEMBER AFTER 
THE ELECTION WE'VE HAD A NUMBER 
OF CONVERSATIONS ABOUT HOW THE 
CONSERVATIVE PARTY NEEDED TO DO 
A RE-THINK ABOUT WHO IT WANTED 
TO BE AND WHAT IT WANTED TO BE 
MOVING FORWARD, AND THAT WAS THE
WAY IT WAS GOING TO GROW.
THAT WAS THE WAY IT WAS GOING TO
ATTRACT, AS ERIN O'TOOLE TALKED 
ABOUT SO MANY TIMES, URBAN AND 
SUBURBAN VOTERS.
DID WE HEAR ANY OF THAT TONIGHT 
OR WHETHER THERE HAD BEEN ANY 
REFLECTION MOVING IN THAT 
DIRECTION, ANDREW, DO YOU THINK?
>> NOT A WHOLE LOT.
THE ONE THING THAT PEOPLE TALKED
ABOUT PARTICULARLY AFTER THE 
2019 ELECTION WAS THEIR 
ENVIRONMENTAL PLAN.
HERE YOU'VE GOT ERIN O'TOOLE 
SAYING HE WILL SCRAP THE CARBON 
TAX BUT HE WILL KEEP THE LARGE 
EMITTERS TAX AND HE WAS TAKEN TO
TASK FOR EVEN THAT BY MacKAY AND
SOME OF THE OTHER CANDIDATES.
SO NOT A LOT OF PROGRESS ON THAT
FRONT.
ON ISSUES OF SORT OF REACHING 
OUT TO SUBURBAN AND URBAN 
VOTERS, THE CENTRAL CANADIAN 
VOTERS, ET CETERA, THERE'S LIP 
SERVICE TALKED ABOUT IT BUT NOT 
A LOT IN TERMS OF POLICIES, 
CERTAINLY NOT TONIGHT.
>> Rosemary: ALTHOUGH PETER 
MacKAY HINTED AT THE BIG BLUE 
TENT, WHICH IS SOMETHING THEY 
HAVE SAID BEFORE, BUT THEY NEED 
TO PUSH THOSE PEGS BACK, AND I 
WONDER WHETHER PEOPLE -- 
CANADIANS THAT MAY HAVE WATCHED 
WHO AREN'T CONSERVATIVE MEMBERS 
WOULD HAVE HEARD ANYTHING TO 
THINK ABOUT THE PARTY IN A 
DIFFERENT WAY.
>> FRANKLY, THE MOST INTERESTING
COMMENT ON HOW TO EXPAND THE 
TENT, BECAUSE THAT IS THE 
CONSERVATIVE'S BIGGEST 
CHALLENGE, AND THAT IS THE ONLY 
WAY THEY'RE GOING TO WIN AN 
ELECTION, CAME FROM LESLYN LEWIS
AND DEREK SLOAN, ACTUALLY.
LESLYN LEWIS TALKED ABOUT NOT 
JUST REACHING OUT TO FORMER OR 
PERHAPS CURRENT MEMBERS OF 
MAXIME BERNIER'S PARTY, BUT ALSO
MEMBERS OF THE GREEN PARTY.
SHE TALKED ABOUT THE EFFORTS, 
FORMER EFFORTS, FRANKLY, THAT 
HAVE BEEN DONE UNDER JASON 
KENNEY AND STEPHEN HARPER TO 
BRING NEW IMMIGRANTS INTO THE 
CONSERVATIVES' FAMILY, AND I 
KNOW A LOT OF CONSERVATIVE M.P.S
FEEL THAT THE PARTY HAS DROPPED 
THE BALL ON THAT.
SO SHE TALKED A LOT ABOUT THAT, 
AS WELL AS, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE WHO
SHARE SIMILAR VALUES, RELIGIOUS 
VALUES.
NO SURPRISE COMING FROM HER 
CAMP.
AND THEN DEREK SLOAN TALKING 
ABOUT NOT JUST HAVING ANSWERS TO
ECONOMIC QUESTIONS BUT ALSO 
TALKING ABOUT HAVING ANSWERS TO 
QUESTIONS ABOUT HOMELESSNESS, 
ABOUT THE OPIOID ADDICTION 
PROBLEM IN THIS COUNTRY.
AND SO IT WAS INTERESTING THAT 
PERHAPS THE LESS OBVIOUS ANSWERS
CAME FROM THE LESS OBVIOUS, LESS
MAINSTREAM CANDIDATES.
>> Rosemary: YES.
GO AHEAD.
>> ON THE ENVIRONMENT, WATCHING 
THOSE TWO DEBATES, YOU DO GET 
THE IMPRESSION THAT THE 
CONSERVATIVES, OR AT LEAST THOSE
CANDIDATES, ARE HOPING FOR A 
REPLAY OF WHAT HAPPENED TO 
CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE 
ENVIRONMENT AFTER THE 2008 
FINANCIAL CRISIS, I.E., THE 
CRISIS CHASED OFF CLIMATE CHANGE
FROM THE RADAR AND LED TO 
STEPHEN HARPER'S MAJORITY 
GOVERNMENT A FEW YEARS LATER.
AND IT'S HARD TO WIN, AS OTHERS 
COULD TESTIFY, THE CONSERVATIVE 
LEADERSHIP AT THIS JUNCTURE WITH
AN AGGRESSIVE CLIMATE CHANGE 
POLICY.
BUT I THINK THEY ARE GIVING 
THEMSELVES A PASS ON THAT IN 
LARGE PART BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE 
THE PANDEMIC HAS CHANGED THE 
FOCUS AND THAT IF AN ELECTION IN
A YEAR, IN A YEAR AND A HALF, IT
WILL BE EASIER FOR THEM TO GET A
PASS FROM VOTERS WITHOUT BEING 
STRONG ON CLIMATE CHANGE.
THAT COULD BE A VERY WRONG 
GAMBLE, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT.
>> Rosemary: I ONLY HAVE TWO 
MINUTES LEFT.
OBVIOUSLY THIS WAS A DEBATE FOR 
MEMBERS, FOR THE BASE, BETWEEN 
ONE ANOTHER.
BUT WHILE YOU WERE WATCHING IT, 
WAS THERE ANYONE THERE YOU 
THOUGHT, OH, THIS PERSON COULD 
TAKE ON JUSTIN TRUDEAU, COULD 
TAKE ON MR. BLANCHET OR 
MR. SINGH, COULD BE A REAL 
COMPETITOR IN A FEDERAL RACE?
ANDREW, I'LL MAKE YOU START 
FIRST.
>> I THINK EITHER MacKAY OR 
O'TOOLE WOULD BE CREDIBLE.
I THINK THEY ARE BOTH MAJOR 
ADVANCES ON SCHEER IN TERMS OF 
COMING ACROSS AS RELATABLE AND 
RELATIVELY NORMAL.
NEITHER OF THEM WOULD IMPRESS 
YOU WITH THEIR HUGE VISION FOR 
THE COUNTRY, FOR HAVING A 
PARTICULARLY STRONG ADVOCATES 
FOR HOW THEY WOULD CHANGE THE 
POLICIES IN THE COUNTRY, BUT 
THEY COME ACROSS AS MODERATE, 
RESPONSIBLE, LIKEABLE PEOPLE.
>> Rosemary: ALTHIA, ABOUT 30 
SECONDS ON THAT SAME ONE. 
>> I DON'T DISAGREE WITH THAT.
ONE THING THAT STRUCK ME THE 
LAST TWO DAYS IS I FEEL LIKE 
PETER MacKAY IS ALMOST LIKE 
JUSTIN TRUDEAU IN 2012, WHEN HE 
WAS RUNNING FOR THE LEADERSHIP 
THEN.
HE WAS LIKE AN EMPTY VESSEL THAT
YOU COULD PUT WHATEVER POLICIES 
THE PARTY DECIDES TO COME UP 
WITH, OR STRATEGIC ADVISORS.
BUT HE SEEMED VERY CONFIDENT AND
IN CONTROL AND FRANKLY, FOR A 
CAMPAIGN THAT WE HAVE MOCKED AND
CRITICIZED FOR THE PAST FEW 
MONTHS, HE SHOWED HIMSELF TO 
SPEAK QUITE WELL IN FRENCH, OR 
AT LEAST A LOT BETTER THAN WE 
EXPECTED.
AND HE PERFORMED A LOT BETTER 
THAN WE EXPECTED.
>> Rosemary: CHANTAL, SAME TO 
YOU.
>> I THINK IT'S AN EITHER/OR 
THING.
I DON'T THINK THAT MOST 
CONSERVATIVE MEMBERS IN THE 
CONSERVATIVE MAINSTREAM WOULD BE
ANGRY AND WOULD LEAVE IF ONE OR 
THE OTHER IS DEFEATED.
THERE'S NO MAXIME BERNIER WING 
IN THE CONTEST.
WHETHER EITHER IS REALLY 
IMPRESSIVE, IT'S REALLY HARD TO 
TELL AT THIS EARLY JUNCTURE, BUT
I THINK THEY HAVE TWO CANDIDATES
THAT WOULD LOOK MORE CREDIBLE, I
AGREE, THAN ANDREW SCHEER DID, 
WHO BROUGHT NO CABINET 
EXPERIENCE, VERY LITTLE OF THAT 
TO THE TABLE, AND IT REALLY 
SHOWED.
>> Rosemary: OKAY, GOT TO LEAVE 
IT THERE.
THANK YOU FOR STAYING UP LATE 
AND DOING THIS LIVE AND WATCHING
IT ALL FOR US.
THANK YOU.
APPRECIATE IT.
WE'LL SEE YOU SOON.
BEFORE WE GO, "AT ISSUE" IS 
ALSO -- WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A 
SHORT SUMMER BREAK AND WE WANT 
TO HEAR FROM YOU BEFORE WE DO 
THAT.
SEND US YOUR POLITICAL QUESTIONS
FOR ANY OF US.
EMAIL US AT THENATIONAL@cbc.ca 
OR MESSAGE US ON INSTAGRAM RIGHT
RIGHT THERE, OR YOU CAN ALWAYS 
HIT ME UP ON TWITTER 
TOO,@ROSIEBARTON.
WE'LL PUT AS MANY OF THOSE 
QUESTIONS TO OUR THREE FAVOURITE
PEOPLE IN THE COMING WEEKS.
FOR NOW, THOUGH, LET'S HEAD BACK
TO TORONTO AND ANDREW.
>> Andrew: OKAY, THANKS SO MUCH,
ROSIE.
NEXT ON "THE NATIONAL," A 
SIX-BLOCK AREA IN SEATTLE THAT'S
BECOME A POLITICAL FLASHPOINT.
ANTI-RACISM PROTESTERS SET UP 
CAMP, BUILT A COMMUNITY AND IT'S
GOTTEN THE PRESI
>> Andrew: AFTER MORE THAN 60 
YEARS IN THIS SPOT OUTSIDE -- 
COLUMBUS CITY HALL, THIS STATUE 
OF CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS WILL 
COME DOWN BY ORDER OF THAT 
CITY'S MAYOR.
BECAUSE HE SAYS IT REPRESENTS 
OPPRESSION.
IT WILL BE THE LATEST IN A 
GROWING LIST OF SUCH MONUMENTS 
TO BE REMOVED, BUT IN SEATTLE A 
DIFFERENT KIND OF SYMBOLISM IS 
AT PLAY.
MORE THAN A WEEK AGO, PROTESTERS
SEIZED A NEIGHBOURHOOD AND 
RE-NAMED IT.
AS TINA LOVGREEN TELLS US, THE 
CAPITOL HILL OCCUPIED PROTEST, 
OR C.H.O.P., HAS SOME HOPEFUL, 
OTHERS UNEASY.
>> Reporter: THERE'S A NEW NAME 
FOR SEATTLE'S CAPITOL HILL 
NEIGHBOURHOOD, A SIX-BLOCK AREA 
OCCUPIED FOR OVER A WEEK NOW BY 
DEMONSTRATORS AFTER POLICE 
BOARDED UP AND LEFT THE EAST 
PRECINCT FOLLOWING TENSIONS AND 
VIOLENT CLASHES BETWEEN 
PROTESTERS AND POLICE.
DEMONSTRATORS ARE CALLING FOR AN
END TO POLICE BRUTALITY IN THE 
WAKE OF GEORGE FLOYD'S KILLING.
>> IT'S NOT NOTHING AGGRESSIVE 
OR VIOLENT OR NOTHING LIKE THAT.
BLACK LIVES KILLED BY THE 
POLICE.
WE WANT PEOPLE TO SEE THAT THOSE
LIVES MATTER.
>> Reporter: DEMANDING TO DEFUND
THE POLICE, INVEST IN THE 
COMMUNITY AND RELEASE ARRESTED 
PROTESTERS.
THE ENCAMPMENT HAS TURNED INTO A
FESTIVAL CITY OF ITS OWN, WITH 
TENTS, GARDENS AND MUSIC.
SOME SAY THE MOVEMENT HAS LOST 
FOCUS.
>> THIS IS NOT -- WE'RE NOT 
HOSTING A FREE BLOCK PARTY AND 
THIS IS A POLITICAL MOVEMENT. 
>> Reporter: THEY WANT TO BRING 
BACK THE ATTENTION TO WHY THIS 
ALL STARTED.
>> THIS IS OUR MOMENT RIGHT NOW,
SO WE DON'T WANT YOU TO COME OUT
HERE AND TRY TO PUT YOUR AGENDA 
IN PLACE FOR YOUR MOVEMENT.
THIS IS THE BLACK LIVES MATTER 
MOVEMENT FOR BLACKS TO STOP 
BEING KILLED AND FOR US TO GET 
OUR FAIR SHAKE IN AMERICA THAT 
WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN SO FAR.
>> Reporter: FOR THE MOST PART, 
THE ZONE REMAINS PEACEFUL, THE 
SCENES ARE ENOUGH TO ANGER 
PRESIDENT TRUMP.
>> President Donald Trump: THE 
GOVERNOR HAS TO CALL OUT THE 
TROOPS, DO WHAT HE HAS TO DO, 
HAS TO CALL OUT THE NATIONAL 
GUARD, HAS TO DO SOMETHING.
>> ONE OF THE THINGS THIS 
PRESIDENT WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND 
IS THAT LISTENING TO COMMUNITY 
IS NOT A WEAKNESS.
IT IS A STRENGTH.
>> Reporter: BUT CONCERNS FROM 
NEIGHBOURS ARE GROWING.
>> MANY BUSINESSES ARE AFRAID TO
OPEN.
>> Reporter: AND THERE ARE 
WORRIES OVER ACCESS FOR 
EMERGENCY CREWS, WHICH IS WHY 
THESE WERE BROUGHT IN, TO CREATE
SOME SPACE, SOMETHING PROTESTERS
SAY THEY WORKED WITH THE CITY TO
DO.
>> THIS CHANGE IS GOING TO OPEN 
TRAFFIC BACK UP TO OVER 1,000 
RESIDENTS ON 12TH STREET. 
>> Reporter: A SIGNAL THEY SAY 
THAT THEY ARE WILLING TO WORK 
WITH AUTHORITIES.
TINA LOVGREEN, CBC NEWS, 
VANCOUVER.
>> Andrew: WHEN WE RETURN, THE 
END OF HERO PAY.
>> I FELT VERY UPSET THAT THEY 
ARE ENDING THE PREMIUM BEFORE 
THE PANDEMIC IS EVEN NEARLY TO 
BE OVER.
>> Andrew: A PAY BUMP FOR 
GROCERY STORE WORKERS GETS CUT.
THE BACKLASH NEXT.
>> Andrew: WE ARE GETTING A 
CLEARER PICTURE OF THE FISCAL 
TOLL COVID-19 IS TAKING ON 
CANADA.
A NEW REPORT SAYS THIS YEAR'S 
FEDERAL DEFICIT COULD HIT $256 
BILLION.
THAT ACCOUNTS FOR $169 BILLION 
SPENT IN EMERGENCY AID AND A 
HISTORIC DROP IN ECONOMIC 
OUTPUT.
BUT THERE'S ANOTHER HARSH 
ECONOMIC REALITY, ONE FOR WHICH 
OTTAWA WANTS ANSWERS.
CANADA'S MAJOR GROCERY CHAINS 
ARE PUTTING A PRIOR WAGE 
INCREASE FOR THE FRONT-LINE 
WORKERS, EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE 
STILL CONSIDERED ESSENTIAL.
AARON SALTZMAN HAS THAT STORY.
>> Reporter: FOR AMANDA NAGY, 
THE PANDEMIC IS FAR FROM OVER. 
>> THAT ANXIETY IS WITH YOU 
EVERY DAY.
WE'VE JUST LEARNT HOW TO COPE 
WITH IT A LITTLE BETTER, BUT 
THAT DOESN'T MAKE THAT 
REALIZATION OF WORKING WITH THE 
PUBLIC ANY LESS DANGEROUS.
>> Reporter: AS AN ASSISTANT 
BAKERY MANAGER AT LOBLAW-OWNED 
FORTINOS, SHE SAYS SHE TOUCHES 
PRODUCTS THAT HAVE BEEN HANDLED 
BY MULTIPLE SHOPPERS.
SHE CAN'T SOCIAL DISTANCE FROM 
CO-WORKERS, THEY'RE BUSIER FROM 
-- THAN EVER, AND NOW SHE'S 
LOSING HER PANDEMIC WAGE 
PREMIUM.
>> IT SUCKS.
>> Reporter: BACK IN MARCH AS 
ALL THAT PANIC BUYING LED TO A 
HUGE SURGE IN PROFITS FOR 
CANADA'S MAJOR GROCERY CHAINS, 
THE COMPANIES OFFERED FRONT-LINE
WORKERS A TEMPORARY PAY BOOST OF
$2 PER HOUR IN RECOGNITION OF 
THEIR ROLE AS ESSENTIAL WORKERS.
BUT LAST WEEKEND LOBLAW, METRO 
AND EMPIRE, WHICH OWNS SOBEYS, 
ALL SAID THAT'S NOW OVER.
THE TEMPORARY PAY PREMIUM WAS 
NEVER ABOUT SAFETY, LOBLAW SAID 
IN A STATEMENT TODAY.
IT WAS A RECOGNITION OF 
EXTRAORDINARY EFFORT.
OUR STORES ARE NOW OPERATING AT 
A NORMAL PACE, ALBEIT IN A NEW 
WAY.
>> THAT'S 11 FOR, 0 AGAINST.
>> I DECLARE THE MOTION CARRIED.
>> Reporter: TODAY A BIPARTISAN 
GROUP OF M.P.S SAID THEY WANT 
MORE OF AN EXPLANATION, AND 
THEY'RE CALLING FOR GROCERY 
EXECUTIVES TO ANSWER QUESTIONS 
BEFORE A PARLIAMENTARY 
COMMITTEE.
>> EXPLAIN TO THE CANADIAN 
PUBLIC WHY THEY HAVE SLASHED 
THESE EMERGENCY PAY FOR 
ESSENTIAL WORKERS IN THE MIDDLE 
OF A PANDEMIC AND HOW THAT 
DECISION, BECAUSE THEY MADE IT 
ON THE SAME DAY, IS CONSISTENT 
WITH OUR COMPETITION LAWS.
>> Reporter: SOME SAY IT ALSO 
SENDS THE WRONG MESSAGE WHEN SO 
MANY BUSINESSES ARE STRUGGLING 
TO FIND FRONT-LINE WORKERS 
WILLING TO RETURN TO THE JOB.
>> IF YOU'RE GOING TO WANT THE 
LABOUR THAT YOU NEED, THERE ARE 
GOING TO BE LABOUR SHORTAGES, 
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO UP YOUR 
GAME.
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO OFFER 
SOMETHING BETTER.
>> Reporter: JUST NOT YET, IT 
SEEMS.
AARON SALTZMAN, CBC NEWS, 
TORONTO.
>> Andrew: AS CITIES AND 
PROVINCES RELAX PANDEMIC 
RESTRICTIONS, MORE AND MORE 
PEOPLE ARE GETTING OUT TO SHOP, 
BUT THERE'S ONE PARTICULAR KIND 
OF RETAILER THAT WE'VE BEEN 
GETTING QUESTIONS ABOUT.
*
WITH ALL THE RETAIL EXPERIENCES 
REOPENING, CLOTHING STORES POSE 
A PARTICULAR CHALLENGE BECAUSE 
OF ALL THE THINGS YOU TOUCH, YOU
TRY ON.
SO WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT?
>> I BELIEVE IN THIS PARTICULAR 
STORE BECAUSE WE'RE A 7,000 
SQUARE FEET, WE CAN ACTUALLY 
HAVE MORE PEOPLE, BUT WE WANT 
CUSTOMERS TO FEEL COMFORTABLE, 
SO WE ARE LIMITING IT AT SIX 
PEOPLE IN THE STORE AT A TIME.
>> Reporter: ONCE YOU ARE 
INSIDE, YOU'LL HAVE TO MAINTAIN 
PHYSICAL DISTANCE.
YOU MAY ALSO BE OFFERED HAND 
SANITIZER, EVEN GLOVES OR A MASK
BEFORE YOU TOUCH ANYTHING, AND 
WALKING AROUND, YOU MAY SEE 
FEWER THINGS ON DISPLAY, EVEN 
FEWER SIZES ON THE RACK.
SO BE SURE TO TALK TO STAFF IF 
YOU DON'T SEE WHAT YOU WANT.
AS FOR THE FITTING ROOMS, LOTS 
OF PLACES DOING AWAY WITH 
CURTAINS, RELYING MORE ON HARD 
DIVIDERS, THINGS THAT ARE EASIER
TO WIPE DOWN IN-BETWEEN CLIENTS,
WHICH MEANS THAT THERE MAY BE 
FEWER FITTING ROOMS OPEN AT A 
TIME.
NOW AS FOR ALL THE CLOTHES THAT 
PEOPLE TRY ON BUT LEAVE BEHIND?
>> SO WE STEAM THE CLOTHES RIGHT
AFTER A CUSTOMER HAS TRIED THEM 
ON, AND WE DON'T MERCHANDISE 
THEM BACK INTO THE STORE UNTIL 
THEY'VE BEEN SITTING FOR A FULL 
DAY. 
>> Reporter: AND THAT CLOTHES 
QUARANTINE GOES FOR RETURNED 
ITEMS TOO.
EXPECT THAT TO BE STANDARD 
PRACTICE.
BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, 
NOTHING IS 100% FOOLPROOF, SO IF
YOU DO BUY SOMETHING, IT'S 
PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA TO WASH IT 
WHEN YOU GET HOME, BUT OTHERWISE
JUST REMEMBER THE THREAT IS 
PEOPLE NOT THINGS.
YOU'RE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO GET 
SICK IN A PUBLIC PLACE FROM THE 
OTHER PEOPLE INSIDE IT THAN YOU 
ARE FROM THE CLOTHING THAT 
THEY'VE TRIED ON.
>>> OKAY, AND OUR "MOMENT" IS 
NEXT, BUT FIRST WE WANT TO 
REMEMBER A LEGENDARY SINGER WHO 
HAS DIED AT THE AGE OF 103.
DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR, AS 
BRITAIN FOUGHT FOR FREEDOM, VERA
LYNN WAS A REASSURING VOICE FOR 
SOLDIERS FAR FROM HOME.
*
* WE'LL MEET AGAIN, DON'T KNOW 
WHERE, DON'T KNOW WHEN *
>> Andrew: WITH THIS WAR-TIME 
HIT IN HER RADIO BROADCAST FOR 
TROOPS, SHE GAVE COMFORT TO A 
COUNTRY AT WAR, AND THE SOLDIERS
WHO ADORED HER.
* THE WORLD IS WAITING FOR 
TOMORROW * 
>> Andrew: SHE REALLY DID SIT AT
THEIR BEDSIDES AND PERFORMED 
NEAR THE FRONT LINES.
ADRIENNE INTERVIEWED DAME VERA 
LYNN FOR HER 90TH BIRTHDAY.
>> THE LEGEND, WHETHER IT'S MYTH
OR NOT, I DON'T KNOW, IS THAT 
PEOPLE WOULD STOP FIGHTING TO 
HEAR YOU.
>> WELL, I'VE HEARD THAT SAID 
BEFORE, YES, YES, STOP THE WAR, 
VERA'S ON THE RADIO.
* 
>> Andrew: AND HER LEGACY NEVER 
DIMMED.
WHEN THE QUEEN RALLIED PEOPLE TO
ENDURE THE PANDEMIC, SHE ECHOED 
LYNN'S PROMISE OF A VICTORIOUS 
REUNION. 
>> WE WILL BE WITH OUR FAMILIES 
AGAIN, WE WILL MEET AGAIN.
>> Andrew: WEEKS BEFORE HER 
DEATH, LYNN SAID HER COUNTRY IS 
STILL DEFINED BY SIMPLE ACTS OF 
BRAVERY AND SACRIFICE.
* THEY'LL BE HAPPY TO KNOW THAT 
AS I SAW YOU GO, YOU WERE . . . 
>> Andrew: IN ONE TORONTO 
COMMUNITY, A NEIGHBOUR HAS 
TURNED INTO A BIT OF A 
NIGHTMARE.
HE'S KNOWN AS DIVE BOMBER DAVE, 
AND YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE WHY IN 
OUR "MOMENT."
*
RED-WINGED BLACK BIRDS CAN BE 
QUITE AGGRESSIVE, DEFENDING 
THEIR TERRITORY, BUT THIS GUY 
SEEMS TO BE FIGHTING AN ALL-OUT 
WAR.
>> RUN.
*
>> Andrew: FOR THE SECOND SUMMER
IN A ROW, HE'S BEEN RELENTLESS 
IN TORONTO'S LIBERTY VILLAGE, 
AND NOW HE HAS AN ALLY.
SOMEONE, WE'RE NOT SURE WHO, HAS
SET UP A TIKTOK ACCOUNT UNDER 
THE NAME DIVE BOMBER DAVE AND IT
DOCUMENTS HIS TAKE NO PRISONERS 
ATTACKS ON ANYONE WHO EVEN 
THINKS ABOUT APPROACHING HIS 
NEST.
OH, AND OF COURSE THEY'RE SET TO
MUSIC.
*
NOW THE REPRODUCTIVE SEASON FOR 
THE RED-WING BLACK BIRD IN 
SOUTHERN ONTARIO TYPICALLY WRAPS
UP BY AROUND JULY, SO HOPEFULLY 
DAVE WILL START RELAXING A 
LITTLE BIT SOON, BUT . . . 
*
THEN AGAIN, 2020, YOU NEVER 
KNOW.
SO IT ACTUALLY HURTS, JUST SO 
YOU KNOW.
LIKE, I'VE HAD IT -- I HAVEN'T 
BEEN ATTACKED BY DIVE BOMBER 
DAVE, BUT I HAVE BEEN ATTACKED 
BY CROWS BEFORE.
IT HURTS.
IT FELT LIKE A SLAP UPSIDE THE 
HEAD.
THAT'S WHAT MINE FELT LIKE.
JUST REMEMBER, THE BIRD IS 
PROBABLY MORE FREAKED OUT THAN 
YOU ARE.
THAT'S "THE NATIONAL" FOR THIS 
THURSDAY, JUNE 18.
HAVE A GOOD NIGHT.
*
