>> Ian: GOOD EVENING, I'M IAN
HANOMANSING.
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PROTESTERS
TAKE TO THE STREETS OF MONTRÉAL.
>> BLACK LIVES MATTER!
>> Ian: THEIR MESSAGE TO THE
WORLD AND QUÉBEC'S PREMIER.
>>> ONE ONTARIO FAMILY SEARCHES
FOR JUSTICE AFTER THEIR SON WAS
FATALLY SHOT BY POLICE.
>> THIS GUY SHOULD GET 26 YEARS
IN PRISON.
SAME AGE AS MY SON.
>> YOU ALL HAVE MASKS AND GLOVES
WITH YOU?
>> Ian: TAKING FLIGHT IN THE AGE
OF COVID.
HOW CANADIAN TOURISM OPERATORS
PLAN TO BRING THEIR BUSINESSES
BACK.
>>> AND WHAT PROTESTERS IN
ENGLAND DID WITH THIS STATUE OF
A SLAVE TRADER.
>>> THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
(*)
>>> WHAT STARTED AS A RESPONSE
TO GEORGE FLOYD'S KILLING BY
POLICE HAS BECOME A RALLYING CRY
ACROSS THE UNITED STATES, CANADA
AND MUCH OF THE WORLD.
THE STREETS IN MANY PARTS OF
THIS COUNTRY FULL ONCE AGAIN
THIS WEEKEND.
IN THE MIDST OF A GLOBAL
PANDEMIC, A RELENTLESS DEMAND
FOR JUSTICE.
>> PRAY FOR PEACE.
>> Ian: IT'S BECOME A MOMENT OF
SOLIDARITY, THE KIND OF MASS
COMING TOGETHER THAT WE HAVEN'T
SEEN SINCE BEFORE COVID-19.
ANGER AND FRUSTRATION FELT IN
CITIES ACROSS CANADA, BUT ALSO
HOPE, AS THOUSANDS MARCHED
AGAINST ANTI-BLACK RACISM AND
POLICE BRUTALITY TODAY AND
YESTERDAY.
>> WHAT DO WE WANT?
>> JUSTICE!
>> WHEN DO WE WANT IT?
>> NOW!
>> Ian: WITH PEACEFUL
DEMONSTRATIONS FROM ST. JOHN'S
TO WHITEHORSE, MONTRÉAL TO
TORONTO, AND CALGARY TO REGINA.
ON THE GROUND, THERE ARE VOICES
SPEAKING ABOUT
DIVISIONS WITH A UNITED MESSAGE.
>> BLACK LIVES MATTER!
BLACK LIVES MATTER!
>> Ian: TONIGHT 13 DAYS AFTER
FLOYD'S DEATH IN MINNEAPOLIS,
MANY IN CANADA CALLING FOR
CHANGE HERE.
AND THAT PASSION WAS EVIDENT IN
MONTRÉAL TODAY WHERE TENS OF
THOUSANDS MARCHED, SAYING THEY
WANT AN END TO ANTI-BLACK RACISM
AND POLICE BRUTALITY.
JAELA BERNSTIEN BRINGS US SOME
OF THOSE VOICES.
>> I CAN'T BREATHE!
I CAN'T BREATHE!
>> Reporter: A SEA OF PEOPLE
WHO HAVE HAD ENOUGH.
>> I CAN'T BREATHE!
>> Reporter: INCREDIBLY,
DESPITE THE NUMBERS, IT WAS
MOSTLY PEACEFUL EXCEPT FOR A FEW
SMALL SCUFFLES WITH POLICE AFTER
ALMOST EVERYONE HAD GONE HOME.
>> ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
>> Reporter: POLICE MOSTLY
KEPT THEIR DISTANCE AND GIVING
PROTESTERS THE SPACE TO VOICE
THEIR MESSAGE.
>> BUT NOT ALL COPS ARE BAD.
90% OF COPS ARE GOOD.
YOU KNOW WHAT I TELL THE COPS?
HOW COME FOUR OUT OF FOUR COPS
WERE NOT GOOD FOR GEORGE FLOYD?
>> I'M HERE AGAINST POLICE
BRUTALITY AGAINST THE INDIGENOUS 
POPULATION, AGAINST BLACK
PEOPLE, AGAINST MINORITIES.
>> I KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO
BE
DISCRIMINATED BY POLICE AND
HARASSED, BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN
THAT MOST OF MY LIFE UP NORTH.
AND IT NEEDS TO STOP.
>> Reporter: THAT MESSAGE A
STARK CONTRAST TO THE PREMIER'S
RECENT COMMENTS THAT SYSTEMIC
DISCRIMINATION DOES NOT EXIST IN
QUÉBEC.
>> NO PEACE!
>> Reporter: THERE WERE CALLS
FOR PEOPLE WITH PRIVILEGE TO DO
MORE THAN TO BE NON-RACIST, BUT
TO SPEAK OUT AND ACT.
>> YOU CAN SAY I'M NOT RACIST
AND I HAVE BLACK FRIENDS AND
EVERYTHING.
I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT.
BUT IT'S NOT ENOUGH.
WHEN POLICE ATTACKS US, IT'S NOT
ENOUGH.
YOU HAVE TO DO CONCRETE CHANGES.
>> Reporter: SOMETHING THAT
THIS WOMAN SAYS THAT SHE'S
WORKING HARD TO DO.
>> [Speaking French]
>> Reporter: AS A WHITE
MIDDLE-CLASS WOMAN SHE SAYS THAT
SHE CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND WHAT IT
IS TO EXPERIENCE SYSTEMIC
RACISM, BUT SHE'S USING HER
PRIVILEGE TO STAND UP FOR WHAT'S
RIGHT.
SOME TOOK HEART IN SEEING PEOPLE
FROM ALL BACKGROUNDS JOIN THE
RALLY.
THIS FAMILY WANTED THEIR
CHILDREN TO SEE IT FIRSTHAND.
>> [Speaking French]
>> Reporter: SHE SAYS, "I WANT
MY
DAUGHTER TO SEE THAT IT'S NOT
JUST A QUESTION OF SKIN COLOUR,
BUT OF HUMANITY."
HER DAUGHTER'S HOPE IS THAT
THINGS WILL CHANGE BY THE TIME
SHE'S GROWN UP.
>> [Speaking French]
>> Reporter: "I HOPE RACISM
WILL NO LONGER EXIST," SHE SAYS,
"I HOPE IT DISAPPEARS."
JAELA BERNSTIEN, CBC NEWS,
MONTRÉAL.
>> Ian: THERE IS RENEWED CALL
IN CANADA FOR POLICE TO WEAR
BODY CAMS THAT RECORD HOW THEY
TREAT THE PUBLIC.
TALIA RICCI HEARD THAT LOUD AND
CLEAR AT A PROTEST JUST WEST OF
TORONTO.
>> BLACK LIVES MATTER!
BLACK LIVES MATTER!
>> Reporter: THE MESSAGE HERE
IN MISSISSAUGA IS JUST AS LOUD
AS IN OTHER CITIES.
>> WHEN BAD THINGS ARE HAPPENING
IN MY COMMUNITY, YOU KNOW, TO MY
PEOPLE, I'M DOING ANYTHING THAT
I CAN TO HELP THE FUTURE.
>> Reporter: THEY MARCH
THROUGH THE CITY'S CORE AND
ECHOING CHANTS HEARD ON STREETS
ACROSS NORTH AMERICA.
>> NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE.
NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE.
>> EVERY HUMAN BEING THAT HAS
DARKER SKIN COULD EXPERIENCE
SOME OF THESE THINGS THAT WE ARE
SEEING COMING UP NOW, BUT IT'S
BEEN GOING ON FOR HUNDREDS OF
YEARS AND IT NEEDS TO END.
>> Reporter: PART OF THE
MESSAGE IN TODAY'S PROTEST IN
MISSISSAUGA IS TO PUSH FOR PEEL
REGIONAL POLICE TO WEAR BODY
CAMERAS.
IT'S BEEN SUPPORTED BY
MISSISSAUGA AND BRAMPTON'S MAYOR
AND THERE'S ALSO BEEN A PETITION
STARTED IN THE COMMUNITY.
>> THE BODY CAM LETS US KNOW,
LETS THE PUBLIC KNOW, LETS
EVERYBODY KNOW THAT YOU ARE
BEING WATCHED AND YOU NEED TO DO
THE RIGHT THING.
>> Reporter: BUT ONE EXPERT
SAYS THAT CALLS TO DE-FUND
THE POLICE AND TO WIDELY USE
BODY CAMERAS DON'T GO
HAND-IN-HAND.
>> YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE SEEING
POLICE WITH VIOLENCE,
THEY DON'T WANT TO FUND THEM.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME WHEN YOU
CALL FOR BODY CAMERAS THEY THINK
THAT WILL INCREASE
ACCOUNTABILITY.
THAT'S A HUGE EXPENSE.
>> Reporter: PEEL REGIONAL
POLICE SAY THAT A REPORT ON BODY
CAMS WILL BE PRESENTED AT A
BOARD MEETING THIS MONTH.
TORONTO'S POLICE CHIEF SAYS THAT
THE PLAN TO EQUIP ITS OFFICERS
IS NEARLY IN PLACE BUT HE HASN'T
CONFIRMED THE PRICE TAG.
>> THERE COMES A TIME WHEN
THINGS JUST HAVE TO END, YOU
KNOW, AND RIGHT NOW IS THE BEST
TIME TO DO IT.
>> I HOPE THAT BY THE TIME THEY
HAVE KIDS THEY WON'T HAVE TO DO
THIS.
BUT AT LEAST THEY CAN REMEMBER
AND KNOW THAT THEY WERE PART OF
A CHANGE.
>> Reporter: THERE WERE MANY
CHILDREN TAKING PART.
LIKE JASMINE HEADLEY WHO SHARED
A SONG WITH US.
>> * OUR EYES ARE ON 
* TO RISE UP 
* AND I'LL DO IT A THOUSAND
TIMES AGAIN *
>> Reporter: TALIA RICCI, CBC
NEWS, MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO.
>> Ian: AND TONIGHT WE'RE
HEARING ALLEGATIONS OF VIOLENCE
BY CANADIAN POLICE AGAINST
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE.
IN ALBERTA AN INVESTIGATION HAS
BEEN LAUNCHED AFTER A CHIEF SAID
THAT HE WAS BEATEN AND ARRESTED
BY THE RCMP.
ANITA BATHE HAS BEEN LOOKING
INTO THIS FOR US.
ANITA?
>> Reporter: IAN, TAKE A LOOK
AT THIS.
CHASE ALLAN ADAM SAID THAT HE
WAS ASSAULTED BY RCMP OFFICERS
WHEN HE, HIS WIFE AND NIECE WERE
LEAVING A LOCAL CASINO IN
DOWNTOWN FORT McMURRAY ON
MARCH 10th.
ADAM ADMITS THAT THE
REGISTRATION ON HIS TRUCK WAS
EXPIRED BUT SAYS THAT EVERYTHING
ESCALATED WHEN HE QUESTIONED
OFFICERS.
>> GET BACK IN THE CAR!
>> [indiscernible]
>> GET BACK IN THE CAR NOW.
>> I DROPPED TO MY KNEES AND I
COULD FEEL SLOWLY THAT I WAS
GOING UNCONSCIOUS, BUT ALL I
COULD
REMEMBER IS THAT MY BLOOD WAS
JUST GUSHING OUT OF MY MOUTH.
>> Reporter: ADAM HAS BEEN
CHARGED WITH RESISTING ARREST
AND ASSAULTING A POLICE OFFICER.
ANOTHER VIDEO WAS CAPTURED BY
POLICE.
AND AFTER REVIEW, THE RCMP
SAYS THE ACTIONS WERE REASONABLE
AND ADAM WAS RESISTING ARREST.
BUT ADAM IS CALLING ON THE FORCE
TO RELEASE THAT VIDEO TO THE
PUBLIC.
ALBERTA SERIOUS INCIDENT
RESPONSE TEAM HAS NOW STARTED AN
INVESTIGATION.
AS PROTESTS AGAINST ANTI-BLACK
RACISM CONTINUE ACROSS NORTH
AMERICA, INDIGENOUS WOMEN HERE
IN B.C. SAY NOT ENOUGH IS BEING
DONE TO ADDRESS RACISM BY POLICE
AGAINST THEM EITHER.
>> THEY'VE BEEN ASSAULTED BY THE
POLICE.
THE POLICE HAVE USED EXCESSIVE
FORCE AGAINST THEM.
THAT THEY'VE BEEN GIVEN BY-LAW
TICKETS THAT APPEAR TO BE
BASELESS.
WE ARE OVERPOLICING AND
OVERINCARCERATING INDIGENOUS
PEOPLE.
>> Reporter: STORIES LIKE THAT
ARE COMING OUT ACROSS THE
COUNTRY NOW.
MANY HOPING THIS OUTCRY FOR
CHANGE WILL PRODUCE RESULTS.
IAN?
>> Ian: ALL RIGHT, ANITA, THANK
YOU.
>>> NOW EVEN ONCE A COMPLAINT IS
MADE AGAINST A POLICE OFFICER,
THERE'S NO GUARANTEE OF A QUICK
SOLUTION.
AND AS BRIAR STEWART EXPLAINS,
SOME SAY THAT UNDERMINES THE
WHOLE SYSTEM.
>> Reporter: IN THIS VIDEO
FROM 2010, A WOMAN
WITH A DISABILITY WAS PUSHED TO
THE GROUND IN VANCOUVER.
THE OFFICER WAS EVENTUALLY
SUSPENDED FOR SIX DAYS, FOUR
YEARS AFTER THE COMPLAINT WAS
FIRST FILED.
>> UNFORTUNATELY, IT'S
UNSURPRISING.
THERE'S SOME REALLY CORE ACCESS
TO JUSTICE ISSUES AROUND POLICE
ACCOUNTABILITY.
>> Reporter: THIS B.C.
LEGAL ADVOCATE SAYS THAT PART OF
THE ISSUE
IS THAT IT'S DIFFICULT FOR
VULNERABLE GROUPS TO EVEN FILE
COMPLAINTS.
>> PEOPLE THINK THAT BECAUSE
THERE ARE NO COMPLAINTS FILED,
THERE ARE NO ISSUES.
BUT REALLY IT'S A RESULT OF
UPSTREAM BARRIERS TO ACCESSING
COMPLAINT SYSTEMS.
>> Reporter: THE AGENCIES
WHICH INVESTIGATE POLICE CONDUCT
AND COMPLAINTS VARY FROM
PROVINCE TO PROVINCE, AND IT
ALSO DEPENDS IF AN OFFICER IS A
MEMBER OF THE RCMP OR A
MUNICIPAL POLICE SERVICE.
>> IT'S A BROAD SPECTRUM IN
CANADA OF THE WAY FORCES DEAL
WITH COMPLAINTS AND PROFESSIONAL
STANDARDS.
>> Reporter: IN THE CASE OF
THE RCMP, IT COULD TAKE YEARS TO
GET A RESPONSE.
A REPORT FROM AN INDEPENDENT
COMMISSION INTO THE 2016
SHOOTING DEATH OF COLTON BUSHIE,
FOR EXAMPLE, STILL ISN'T PUBLIC
BECAUSE THE RCMP HASN'T SIGNED
OFF ON IT.
>> THE PUBLIC EXPECTS ANSWERS.
AND THE POLICE MEMBERS
THEMSELVES WHO ARE UNDER
INVESTIGATION EXPECT
EXPEDITIOUS, PROFESSIONAL,
COMPETENT ANSWERS TO DIFFICULT
QUESTIONS THAT THE PUBLIC IS
RAISING.
>> HI, EVERYBODY.
>> Reporter: AND THERE ARE
MANY RIGHT NOW.
LAST WEEK CHANTAL MOORE, AN
INDIGENOUS WOMAN, WAS SHOT DEAD
BY AN OFFICER WITH THE
EDMONDSTON POLICE AFTER AN
APPARENT WELLNESS CHECK.
POLICE SAY THAT SHE WAS MAKING
THREATS WHILE HOLDING A KNIFE.
EXPERTS SAY THAT OVERSIGHT
AGENCIES SHOULD COLLECT AND
PUBLISH DEMOGRAPHIC DATA FOR ALL
OF THESE CASES.
>> AND WE NEED TO HAVE AN
UNDERSTANDING OF WHO IS
ACTUALLY MAKING THE COMPLAINT
AND HAVE A MORE STRATEGIC FOCUS
FOR THE GROUPS MOST AFFECTED IN
THE SYSTEM.
>> Reporter: A PLACE TO START
TO TRY AND ADDRESS ALL OF THE
SERIOUS UNDERLYING ISSUES.
BRIAR STEWART, CBC NEWS,
VANCOUVER.
>> Ian: THE PROTESTS IN RESPONSE
TO GEORGE FLOYD'S DEATH HAVE
SPREAD AROUND THE WORLD AND
TODAY THERE WAS A DRAMATIC SCENE
AT ONE OF THOSE IN BRISTOL,
ENGLAND.
PROTESTERS TORE DOWN THE STATUE
OF A 17th CENTURY SLAVE TRADER
AND ROLLED IT THROUGH THE
STREETS TO DUMP IN THE HARBOUR.
EDWARD COLSTON WAS INVOLVED IN A
ROYAL AFRICAN COMPANY WHICH
TRANSPORTED TENS OF THOUSANDS OF
SLAVES.
ELSEWHERE PEOPLE PROTESTED AT
U.S. EMBASSIES IN MADRID,
BUDAPEST
AND LONDON, WHERE TENS OF
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE CAME OUT AND
POLICE AND SOME PROTESTERS
CLASHED.
THOUSANDS WERE ALSO AT A MARCH
IN BRUSSELS THAT TURNED VIOLENT.
ROCKS FROM SOME PROTESTERS
ANSWERED WITH A WATER CANNON AND
ARRESTS.
>>> IN MINNEAPOLIS TODAY, THE
CITY AT THE CENTRE FOR THIS
GLOBAL CALL FOR ACTION WAS A
MAJOR MOVE BY CITY COUNCILLORS.
A PLEDGE TO TAKE APART THE
CITY'S POLICE DEPARTMENT AND TO
CREATE SOMETHING NEW.
>> OUR COMMITMENT IS TO DO WHAT
IS NECESSARY TO KEEP EVERY
SINGLE MEMBER OF OUR COMMUNITY
SAFE.
AND TO TELL THE TRUTH -- THAT
THE MINNEAPOLIS POLICE ARE NOT
DOING THAT.
>> Ian: THE PLAN ANNOUNCED AT A
RALLY TODAY TO DISBAND THE
POLICE DEPARTMENT WHOSE OFFICERS
ARE NOW CHARGED IN FLOYD'S DEATH
AND INVEST IN COMMUNITY-LED
SAFETY PROJECTS INSTEAD.
A MAJORITY OF CITY COUNCIL
MEMBERS BACK THE IDEA.
>>> AFTER DAYS OF LARGELY
PEACEFUL PROTESTS, DONALD TRUMP
IS ORDERING THE
NATIONAL GUARD TO WITHDRAW FROM
WASHINGTON.
BUT AS PAUL HUNTER POINTS OUT,
HOW TRUMP HANDLED THE SITUATION
MAY HAVE A LASTING IMPACT ON THE
U.S. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
CAMPAIGN.
>> Reporter: ON THE STEPS OF
THAT
CHURCH IN THE U.S. CAPITAL
TODAY, PRAYER AND DEFIANCE.
AFTER ALL, IT WAS OUTSIDE THAT
SAME CHURCH LAST WEEK THAT
DEMONSTRATORS WERE FORCIBLY
CLEARED FROM THE STREETS AHEAD
OF DONALD TRUMP WALKING OVER FOR
A PHOTO-OP IN FRONT OF THE
PLACE.
A MOMENT THAT HAD BECOME A
FLASHPOINT FOR BOTH SIDES AMID
THE DEMONSTRATIONS FOR RACIAL
JUSTICE IN AMERICA.
TRUMP TODAY TWEETING MORE THAN
ONCE "LAW AND ORDER" AND HIS
VIEW THAT JOE BIDEN AND THE
RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRATS ARE A
THREAT TO THAT.
"I WANT LAW AND ORDER," HE
WROTE.
A POTENTIAL PREVIEW OF HOW TRUMP
MAY USE THE DEMONSTRATIONS IN
HIS COMING RE-ELECTION CAMPAIGN.
EVEN THOUGH THE MOVE LEFT
COUNTLESS AMERICANS AGASP.
>> BY THE WAY THERE WAS NO TEAR
GAS USED.
>> Reporter: TRUMP'S ATTORNEY
GENERAL TODAY DEFENDED WHAT WAS
DONE AS "ALL IN THE NAME OF
PUBLIC SAFETY."
>> THERE WERE CHEMICAL
IRRITANTS --
>> NO, THERE WERE NOT CHEMICAL
IRRITANTS.
PEPPER SPRAY IS NOT A
CHEMICAL IRRITANT.
IT'S NOT CHEMICAL.
>> PEPPER SPRAY --
>> PEPPER BALLS.
PEPPER BALLS.
>> Reporter: MEANWHILE, IN
CITIES ACROSS THE U.S. TODAY,
DEMONSTRATIONS CONTINUED.
INCLUDING BACK IN WASHINGTON
WHERE JOINING THE PROTESTERS
TRUMP CRITIC AND REPUBLICAN
SENATOR MITT ROMNEY.
>> WE NEED TO END VIOLENCE AND
BRUTALITY, AND TO MAKE SURE THAT
THE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT BLACK
LIVES MATTER.
>> Reporter: HE WASN'T THE
ONLY HIGH-PROFILE REPUBLICAN
BACKING THE DEMONSTRATORS TODAY.
>> WE HAVE A CONSTITUTION.
WE HAVE TO FOLLOW THAT
CONSTITUTION.
AND THE PRESIDENT HAS DRIFTED
AWAY FROM IT.
>> Reporter: COLIN POWELL,
SECRETARY OF STATE UNDER GEORGE
W. BUSH, TODAY
CALLED TRUMP A LIAR AND A THREAT
TO U.S. DEMOCRACY.
>> I THINK THAT WHAT WE'RE
SEEING NOW, THOSE MASSIVE
PROTEST MOVEMENTS THAT I HAVE
EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE, IT
SUGGESTS THAT THE COUNTRY IS
GETTING WISE TO THIS AND WE'RE
NOT GOING TO PUT UP WITH IT
ANYMORE.
>> Reporter: SAID POWELL, JOE
BIDEN GETS HIS VOTE COME
NOVEMBER.
>> I'LL BE VOTING FOR HIM.
>> Ian: PAUL HUNTER IS JOINING
US NOW.
YOU MENTIONED LAW AND ORDER
BEING TRUMP'S RE-ELECTION
CAMPAIGN THEME.
DOES IT MEAN THAT HE'S GIVEN UP
ON THE ECONOMY?
>> Reporter: NOT AT ALL.
IN FACT, HE NOW SEEMS TO BE
HINTING AT
TWIN MESSAGES FOR THE CAMPAIGN,
LAW AND ORDER, BANKING ON ENOUGH
AMERICANS BEING ONSIDE WITH HOW
HE'S RESPONDING TO THE
DEMONSTRATIONS AND THE ECONOMY.
REMEMBER THAT BEFORE COVID,
TRUMP'S RE-ELECTION PITCH WAS
LIKELY TO BE ALL ECONOMY ALL THE
TIME.
AND THEN THE ECONOMY TANKED, BUT
NOW, AND HE TWEETED ABOUT THIS
TODAY AS WELL, HE'S SAYING,
DON'T FORGET THAT HE BUILT, AS
HE PUT IT, THE GREATEST ECONOMY
IN U.S. HISTORY, SO ONLY HE CAN
REBUILD IT.
DON'T TAKE A CHANCE ON DEMOCRATS
FOR THAT.
BOTTOM LINE, IAN, EXPECT A
TWO-PRONGED CAMPAIGN FROM TRUMP.
HE SUPPORTS LAW AND ORDER.
DEMOCRATS WANT TO SOMEHOW WEAKEN
THAT.
AND ONLY HE CAN REBUILD THE
ECONOMY.
DON'T TRUST THE OTHER PARTY.
WILL IT WORK?
TRUMP IS IN A DEEP HOLE RIGHT
NOW WITH U.S. VOTERS.
IT MAY WELL BE HIS VIEW THAT
THIS IS THE ONLY CHANCE HE'S
GOT, IAN.
>> Ian: ALL RIGHT, PAUL, THANK
YOU.
>>> SENIOR CORRESPONDENT SUSAN
ORMISTON MET WITH GEORGE FLOYD'S
HOUSEMATE, THE
ONLY CANADIAN JOURNALIST TO
INTERVIEW HIM.
ALBAN MANAGO MET GEORGE FLOYD
FOUR YEARS AGO.
FLOYD HELPED HIM FIND A JOB.
MONAGO SAID THAT HE FOUND OUT
THAT FLOYD HAD BEEN KILLED WHEN
A REPORTER CAME KNOCKING AND
SHOWED HIM THE VIDEO.
>> HOW COULD ANOTHER HUMAN BEING
DO THAT TO ANOTHER HUMAN BEING?
>> Ian: AS GEORGE FLOYD BECAME A
HOUSEHOLD NAME, MANAGO'S GRIEF
DEEPENED.
>> EVERY DAY, YOU KNOW, I SEE
HIS FACE AND, YOU KNOW, HIS NAME
ON THE MAILBOX.
I GO IN HIS ROOM TO JUST LOOK AT
HIS ROOM, LOOK AT HIS SHOES.
AND I AM
LIKE FLOYD IS NOT COMING HOME.
>> Ian: SUSAN ORMISTON'S
INTERVIEW WITH GEORGE FLOYD'S
ROOMMATE IS TOMORROW NIGHT ON
"THE NATIONAL."
>>> SOME GOOD NEWS TODAY ON THE
FIGHT AGAINST THE CORONAVIRUS IN
THIS COUNTRY.
SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE
MONTH, QUÉBEC HAS HAD FEWER THAN 
300 CASES A DAY AND TODAY IT
REPORTED 225 NEW KNOWN
INFECTIONS, BRINGING ITS TOTAL
TO NEARLY 53,000.
ONTARIO REGISTERED JUST OVER 400
CASES, BUT HALF OF THOSE WERE
NUMBERS DELAYED BECAUSE OF
PROBLEMS WITH LAB REPORTING.
>>> AND A BIT OF A SETBACK IN
NEW BRUNSWICK.
THE PROVINCE HAS REPORTED A NEW
CASE OF COVID-19 IN THE
CAMPBELLTON REGION.
IT'S A PERSON IN THEIR 90s
LINKED TO A LONG-TERM CARE
FACILITY, THE SAME PLACE THAT
EXPERIENCED AN OUTBREAK AFTER A
WORKER HAD CONTACT WITH AN
INFECTED DOCTOR.
>>> HEALTH CANADA RECALLED SIX
TYPES OF HAND SANITIZER AND
THEY'RE MADE WITH
INDUSTRIAL-GRADE ETHANOL AND
FREQUENT USE COULD LEAD TO SKIN
IRRITATION.
THE RECALL ADVISES ANYONE WITH
PRODUCTS IN THEIR HOME TO STOP
USING THEM IMMEDIATELY.
CANADIANS CONTINUE TO BE TOLD TO
WASH THEIR HANDS REGULARLY TO
LIMIT THE SPREAD OF COVID-19.
>>> NOW A TROUBLING CONSEQUENCE
OF THE PANDEMIC HAS BEEN
MISINFORMATION.
WE KNOW THAT IT'S HAPPENING ON
SOCIAL MEDIA,
BUT AS ASHLEY BURKE TELLS US, AT
LEAST IN ONE CASE A LOCAL PUBLIC
HEALTH AGENCY IS THE CULPRIT.
>> Reporter: THE SEABYS SAY
THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH HELL AND
BACK BECAUSE OF COVID-19 AND
OTTAWA PUBLIC HEALTH ONLY ADDED
TO THEIR CONFUSION AND WORRY.
>> I JUST WONDER WHAT SOURCE,
LIKE, WHO DO WE BELIEVE.
>> Reporter: CAROLE AND HER
HUSBAND BRIAN CAUGHT THE VIRUS.
HE SPENT MONTHS IN HOSPITAL.
OTTAWA PUBLIC HEALTH TOLD THEIR
FAMILY THAT IT'S UNLIKELY THEY
WOULD BE REINFECTED.
>> I FEEL LIKE THEY'RE PUTTING A
FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY OUT TO
THE COMMUNITY.
AND I THINK THAT IT'S
IRRESPONSIBLE, QUITE FRANKLY.
>> Reporter: IN A TWEET POSTED
FRIDAY THAT HAS NOW BEEN
REMOVED, THE AGENCY SAYS THAT
PEOPLE WHO
RECOVER FROM THE VIRUS WILL VERY
LIKELY BE PROTECTED FROM
REINFECTION WITH COVID-19 FOR
MONTHS, TO ONE OR TWO YEARS OR
PERHAPS LONGER.
THAT MESSAGE WAS ALSO ON ITS
WEBSITE THAT GOES AGAINST WHAT
CANADA'S TOP DOCTOR HAS
CAUTIONED THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE
PANDEMIC.
>> WE DON'T UNDERSTAND ENOUGH
ABOUT THE IMMUNE RESPONSE TO THE
VIRUS, EXCEPT THAT PEOPLE DO
GENERATE ANTIBODIES.
AND WE HAVE TO SEE HOW THOSE
ANTIBODIES
MIGHT WORK AND HOW LONG THEY
LAST FOR.
>> Reporter: WITH SO MANY
UNKNOWNS, DOCTORS SAY THAT
TELLING PEOPLE THEY HAVE
IMMUNITY COULD CAUSE HARM.
>> THERE'S THE POSSIBILITY THAT
SOME PEOPLE MAY HAVE A FALSE
SENSE OF SECURITY, BELIEVE THAT
THEY'RE IMMUNE, AND, YOU KNOW,
GET THEMSELVES INTO TROUBLE IF
THEY WERE REINFECTED.
>> I THINK PART OF THE CONFUSION
IS HOW IT'S BEEN READ.
>> Reporter: OTTAWA'S CHIEF
MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH SAYS
THAT THE WEBSITE HAS BEEN
UPDATED IN RESPONSE TO CBC'S
STORY.
>> WE HAVE TAKEN THE FEEDBACK
THAT THAT IS NOT CLEAR AND THAT
IS SENDING THE WRONG MESSAGE SO
WE HAVE CHANGED OUR MESSAGING.
>> Reporter: THE MESSAGE HAS
BEEN CORRECTED BUT IT COULD HAVE
A LASTING IMPACT.
>> WHEN THERE'S A MISSTEP LIKE
THIS IT ERODES PUBLIC TRUST AND
IT MAKES IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR
US TO SAY THAT, RIGHT, TO SAY TO
TURN TO THESE ENTITIES FOR THE
BEST ADVICE.
>> Reporter: ALL OF THIS SHOWS
HOW PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCIES ARE
SCRAMBLING TO KEEP UP WITH
SCIENCE THAT'S QUICKLY EVOLVING.
AT A CRITICAL TIME WHEN
CANADIANS NEED CLARITY, NOT
CONFUSION.
ASHLEY BURKE, CBC NEWS, OTTAWA.
>> Ian: HERE'S AN IMPACT OF
COVID-19 THAT WE WEREN'T
EXPECTING, EXCESSIVE SPEEDING.
THEY SAY THAT DRIVERS ARE TAKING
ADVANTAGE OF NEAR EMPTY STREETS
BUT AS RENÉE FILIPPONE EXPLAINS,
NOT EVERYONE IS GOING TO GET
AWAY WITH IT.
>> Reporter: ON THE SIDE OF
B.C.'S BUSIEST HIGHWAY THE RCMP
CONSTABLE MIKE MOORE TAKES HIS
TIME WAITING FOR SOMEONE NOT TO.
WHEN A CAR SPEEDS BY HE JUMPS
INTO ACTION.
[SIRENS]
POLICE SAY THAT SPEEDING HAS
BECOME ALL TOO COMMON SINCE
COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS.
>> I STOPPED YOU FOR SPEEDING
TODAY.
IF YOU COULD HOLD UP YOUR
DRIVER'S LICENSE FOR ME, PLEASE.
>> Reporter: THE DRIVER ADMITS
THAT QUIET ROADS ARE PARTIALLY
TO BLAME FOR HIS SPEED.
>> THE TRAFFIC IS NOT TOO MUCH,
RIGHT, SO ENJOY YOUR RIDING.
>> Reporter: HE WAS SPEEDING
BUT NOT NEARLY AS FAST AS SOME
DRIVERS CONSTABLE MOORE HAS
PULLED OVER IN RECENT WEEKS.
>> THIS IS A 90 km/h ZONE AND
I HAVE CAUGHT SOME FOLK DOING,
YOU KNOW, 170 km/h.
SOME PEOPLE TOOK IT UPON
THEMSELVES TO THINK THAT, YOU
KNOW, THIS IS THE WILD WEST NOW
AND I'M GOING TO OPEN IT UP ON
THESE BARREN ROADS.
>> Reporter: THIS VIDEO WAS
SHOT IN TORONTO, A 21-YEAR-OLD
DOING STUNTS IN A BUSY
INTERSECTION.
AND THIS FILMED BY A DRIVER IN
THE U.K. AT SPEEDS OF 200 MILES
PER HOUR.
THAT'S EQUAL TO MORE THAN 320
KILOMETRES.
>> ALL OF THE SYSTEMS THAT WE
HAVE, LIKE A VEHICLE AND
PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AREAS TO
MAINTAIN THEIR INTEGRITY AND
MOST TYPES OF CRASHES.
SEATBELTS AND AIRBAGS, ALL OF
THOSE SYSTEMS WILL FAIL AT THOSE
SPEEDS.
>> Reporter: IN AN EFFORT TO
GET PEOPLE TO SLOW DOWN, ROAD
SAFETY CHECKS ARE UP ACROSS B.C.
ORGANIZERS SAY THAT MOST PEOPLE
WHO DRIVE BY SLOW DOWN.
>> FOR THE FEW THAT CAN'T, WE
HAVE ENFORCEMENTS.
AND THEY'LL GET A TICKET.
AND FOR THOSE THAT ARE 40 OVER
THE LIMIT, THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE
THEIR VEHICLE IMPOUNDED.
>> Reporter: AS LOCKDOWN
MEASURES EASE, MORE CARS ARE
RETURNING TO THE ROADS.
AND ALONG WITH THEM MORE
ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS WHO SAY
THEY ARE READY TO TICKET OR TOW
TO KEEP THE ROADS SAFE.
RENÉE FILIPPONE, CBC NEWS,

>> Ian: THERE'S A HEAVY POLICE
PRESENCE IN A TOWN IN ONTARIO
TONIGHT AMID A HUNT FOR AN
ACTIVE SHOOTER.
TWO BUILDINGS ARE ON FIRE IN
PARHAM, ONTARIO, ONE OF THEM IS
A CHURCH.
THE MAYOR SAYS THAT THE SUSPECT
SHOT AT FIREFIGHTERS AS THEY
ARRIVED AT THE BUILDINGS AND
STRUCK A BYSTANDER, THOUGH SHE
SAYS THAT THE INJURY IS NOT
SERIOUS.
THEY'RE LOOKING FOR A WHITE MALE
SUSPECT NAMED BRIAN DANIEL
MOSHER.
RESIDENTS ARE TOLD TO SHELTER IN
PLACE.
THERE ARE ROAD BLOCKS SET UP
JUST OUTSIDE OF TOWN AND PEOPLE
ARE TOLD TO AVOID THE AREA.
THERE'S A POWER OUTAGE IN THE
AREA AS WELL.
>>> THE DEATH OF GEORGE FLOYD
PROMPTED ONE ONTARIO FAMILY TO
SPEAK OPENLY FOR THE FIRST TIME
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THEIR
SON.
>> Reporter: WHAT ARE YOU
HOPING TO GET FROM THAT
INVESTIGATION?
>> JUSTICE.
>> THIS GUY SHOULD GET 26 YEARS
IN PRISON.
>> Ian: UP NEXT, BREAKING THEIR
SILENCE AFTER POLICE SHOT AND
KILLED THEIR SON.
>>> PLUS INSIDE A BUSY HOSPITAL
THAT'S FIGURING OUT HOW TO
SAFELY OPEN UP MORE MEDICAL
SERVICES.
>>> AND CANADA'S TOURISM
INDUSTRY IS HOPING THAT YOU'LL
TAKE A DIFFERENT KIND OF
VACATION THIS YEAR.
>> Reporter: YOU GUYS ALL HAVE
MASKS AND GLOVES WITH YOU?
>> Ian: EMPTY SEATS AND EMPTY
ROOMS AND PLENTY OF P.P.E.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK AFTER THIS.
>> NO JUSTICE --
>> NO PEACE!
>> Ian: ACROSS CANADA, A CHORUS
OF ANGER AND DEFIANCE.
PROTESTERS DEMANDING AN END TO
POLICE VIOLENCE THAT TARGETS
PEOPLE OF COLOUR.
>> I HAVE A BLACK SON.
I FELT THAT I NEEDED TO BE HERE
TO TAKE A STAND SO THAT HE CAN
SEE THAT.
>> AND I'M SCARED FOR MY KIDS.
I'M SCARED FOR MY KIDS.
I WANT A BRIGHTER FUTURE FOR
THEM.
I WANT SO MUCH FOR THEM AND I
DON'T WANT NOBODY TO COME TAKE
THEIR LIFE.
NOBODY.
I CARRIED THEM FOR NINE MONTHS.
NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO TOUCH
THEM, TO ABUSE THEM, TO MISTREAT
THEM TO MAKE THEM FEEL LESS
THAN.
>> Ian: FOR ONE ONTARIO FAMILY
THAT FEAR BECAME A HEARTBREAKING
REALITY.
TONIGHT D'ANDRÉ CAMPBELL'S
PARENTS ARE SPEAKING
OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME ABOUT
THEIR 26-YEAR-OLD SON AND HOW HE
WAS KILLED BY POLICE IN HIS OWN
HOME.
"THE FIFTH ESTATE'S" MARK KELLEY
HAS THIS EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW.
[Applause]
>> Reporter: AS PROTESTS RAGE
ACROSS CANADA AND THE U.S., THE
CAMPBELLS QUIETLY BURY THEIR
DEAD.
THE UNSHAKABLE BOND OF FAMILY
RIPPED APART BY TWO POLICE
OFFICERS AND TWO BULLETS.
>> D'ANDRÉ IS GONE AND HE'S GONE
IN A VERY SAD WAY.
A WAY IN WHICH WE HAVE SEEN TO
BECOME FAMILIAR, THE BRUTALITY
OF OUR YOUNG MEN BY LAW
ENFORCEMENT.
>> IT'S NOT EASY TO BURY YOUR
SON WHEN YOU KNOW THAT IT'S NOT
CORONA.
OR AN ACCIDENT.
OR CANCER OR SOME CRAZY DISEASE.
>> Reporter: THIS IS D'ANDRÉ
CAMPBELL CELEBRATING HIS 26th
BIRTHDAY.
IT WOULD BE HIS LAST.
>> HE HAD BIG DREAMS.
HE ALWAYS SAID THAT IF I WIN THE
LOTTERY I'M GOING TO BUY THIS,
I'M GOING TO BUY A CAR, I'M
GOING TO BUY A BIG HOUSE.
YOU KNOW, HE ALWAYS LIVED
OUTSIDE THE BOX.
HE NEVER LOOKED AT ANYTHING IN A
NEGATIVE WAY.
>> Reporter: BUT THE YOUNG MAN
WITH BIG DREAMS AND A BIG HEART
WAS ALSO STRUGGLING WITH
SCHIZOPHRENIA.
THE FAMILY SAYS THAT THEY CALLED
POLICE ON FOUR OR FIVE DIFFERENT
OCCASIONS TO TAKE D'ANDRÉ TO THE
HOSPITAL, CONCERNED ABOUT HIS
WELL-BEING.
WHO CALLED 911 THAT DAY?
>> D'ANDRÉ CALLED 911 THAT DAY.
DON'T COME AND TAKE SOMEONE'S
LIFE WHEN
THEY'RE CALLING FOR HELP.
>> Reporter: IT WAS MONDAY
APRIL 6th AND THE FAMILY WAS
MAKING DINNER WHEN THERE WAS A
KNOCK AT THE DOOR.
TWO OFFICERS FROM PEEL REGIONAL
POLICE ARRIVED ANSWERING
D'ANDRÉ'S CALL.
>> IF HE'S LOOKING FOR HELP AND
HE'S THE ONE CALLING HE
SHOULDN'T HAVE ENDED UP SIX FEET
UNDER.
NOW WHEN I HAVE TO WALK TO HIS
GRAVESITE WITH MY SIBLINGS IT
HURTS ME KNOWING THAT IS THE
REASON THAT I'M GOING THERE WITH
MY FAMILY.
THAT HURTS.
HE DIDN'T DESERVE IT.
>> Reporter: HERE'S WHAT WE
KNOW -- THE POLICE ARRIVED AND
FOUND D'ANDRÉ IN THE KITCHEN
HOLDING A KNIFE.
AFTER A BRIEF ENCOUNTER, THE
OFFICERS SHOT D'ANDRÉ WITH THEIR
TASERS.
MOMENTS LATER ONE OF THE
OFFICERS SHOT HIM DEAD.
>> OH, IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.
THE GUY IS NOT A CRIMINAL.
HE'S NOT WANTED.
YOU ONLY SHOOT WANTED PEOPLE,
RIGHT?
OR THEY COME IN THE HOUSE AND
MURDER HIM JUST LIKE THAT.
>> Reporter: ONTARIO'S SPECIAL
INVESTIGATIONS UNIT THAT
INDEPENDENTLY EXAMINES ALL FATAL
POLICE SHOOTINGS IN THE PROVINCE
IS NOW LOOKING INTO EXACTLY WHAT
TRANSPIRED IN THOSE LAST MINUTES
OF D'ANDRÉ CAMPBELL'S YOUNG
LIFE.
THIS IS A BURNING ISSUE THAT IS
BIGGER THAN ANY ONE LIFE.
PROTESTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY HAVE
GIVEN VOICE TO THE BELIEF THAT
THERE IS AN ANTI-BLACK,
ANTI-INDIGENOUS BIAS THAT HAS
POISONED POLICE FORCES FROM
COAST-TO-COAST-TO-COAST.
A FEELING NOW SHARED BY THE
CAMPBELL FAMILY.
DO YOU THINK THAT RACISM PLAYED
A PART IN YOUR SON'S DEATH?
>> I THINK SO.
RACISM IS EVERYWHERE ALL OVER
THE WORLD.
IT'S HERE IN CANADA TOO.
AND WE ALL HAVE TO PUT AN EYE ON
IT AND PUT A STOP TO IT.
>> Reporter: DAYS AFTER THE
SHOOTING DEATH, POLICE SOURCES
LEAKED DETAILS OF THE
INVESTIGATION TO "THE TORONTO
SUN" SAYING THAT D'ANDRÉ WAS
AGITATED AND THEY HAD TO PROTECT
PEOPLE IN THE HOME AND
THEMSELVES.
RACE, THEY INSISTED, WAS NOT A
CONSIDERATION.
CITING THE ONGOING
INVESTIGATION, PEEL REGIONAL
POLICE WOULDN'T TELL US ANYTHING
ABOUT THE TWO OFFICERS WHO
ANSWERED D'ANDRÉ'S CALL FOR HELP
THAT EVENING.
NOR WOULD THEY EXPLAIN WHY THE
DEPARTMENT HAS A CRISIS
INTERVENTION TEAM TO HANDLE
MENTAL HEALTH CALLS BUT DIDN'T
SEND THEM TO THE SCENE, EVEN
THOUGH D'ANDRÉ'S MENTAL HEALTH
PROBLEMS WERE WELL KNOWN TO THE
POLICE.
>> THEY SHOULD BE GOING TO
A HOUSE WITH MENTAL ISSUES WITH
GUNS FOR WHAT?
THEY ARE GOING TO FIGHT A WAR?
WHY ARE THEY BRINGING GUNS TO
DEAL WITH A
MENTAL ISSUE?
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO WAR,
THEY'RE GOING TO KILL.
>> Reporter: YOU THINK HE DIED
BECAUSE OF A LACK OF EXPERIENCE,
A LACK OF TRAINING?
>> A LACK OF EVERYTHING.
THAT WHOLE NIGHT UNTIL THE
MORNING LITERALLY OUT OF ALL OF
THOSE OFFICERS, ONLY ONE OFFICER
SENT CONDOLENCES.
ONE.
ONE OFFICER.
NOBODY ELSE DID.
HOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL?
>> Reporter: WHAT ARE YOU
HOPING TO GET FROM THAT
INVESTIGATION?
>> JUSTICE.
>> JUSTICE.
THIS GUY SHOULD GET 26 YEARS IN
PRISON.
THE SAME AGE AS MY SON.
>> UM-HMM.
>> HE SHOULD DO THAT TIME.
>> Reporter: BECAUSE OF THE
PANDEMIC, THE CAMPBELLS HAD TO
WAIT ALMOST TWO MONTHS TO BURY
THEIR SON, GONE BUT NOT AT
PEACE.
>> IT'S TIME FOR US TO RISE UP
AS A COMMUNITY, AS PEOPLE, AND
TO SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
HE'S NOT THE ONLY ONE AND HE
WON'T BE THE LAST ONE.
UNLESS WE STAND TO DO SOMETHING
ABOUT IT.
>> Reporter: MARK KELLEY, CBC
NEWS, BRAMPTON.
>> Ian: STILL AHEAD ON "THE
NATIONAL," INSIDE A BUSY ONTARIO
HOSPITAL WORKING TO BRING MORE
SERVICES BACK ONLINE.
>> AND IT THROWS OFF YOUR FLOW
AND THROWS OFF JUST THE RHYTHM
OF THE DAY.
>> Ian: STRUGGLING WITH ALL OF
THAT PROTECTIVE PRECAUTION WHILE
TAKING CARE OF PATIENTS.
>>> BUT NEXT, I GET A LOOK AT
HOW B.C.'S TOURISM INDUSTRY IS
PLANNING TO GET YOU UP IN THE
AIR THIS SUMMER RIGHT AFTER
THIS.
(*)
>> Ian: IN MANY WAYS FLOATPLANES
ARE A SYMBOL OF B.C.'S TOURISM
INDUSTRY.
FOR THE LAST FEW WEEKS A LOT OF
THEM HAVE BEEN SITTING IDLE, BUT
ONE AIRLINE IS ACTUALLY
EXPANDING THEIR SCHEDULE.
IT'S HOPING TO ATTRACT B.C.ERS
WHO HAD BEEN HOPING TO TRAVEL
INTERNATIONALLY.
AS WE DISCOVERED, THE TOURIST
INDUSTRY HERE THIS SUMMER IS
FILLED WITH HIGH HOPES AND
REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS.
THERE IS A NEW PRE-FLIGHT SAFETY
ROUTINE ON HARBOUR AIR.
A METICULOUS SCRUB DOWN OF
ANYTHING A PASSENGER MIGHT
TOUCH.
RIGHT FROM CHECK-IN IT'S CLEAR
THAT PANDEMIC FLYING IS
DIFFERENT.
>> YOU ALL HAVE MASKS AND GLOVES
WITH YOU?
PERFECT.
>> Ian: BUT THE MANDATORY MASKS
AND GLOVES AREN'T JUST DESIGNED
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INFECTION.
THEY'RE ALSO A STRATEGY TO
INCREASE CONFIDENCE IN FLYING.
IN TERMS OF WEARING A MASK AND
FEWER PEOPLE SITTING IN THERE,
HOW DID THAT GO?
>> YEAH, IT WAS OKAY.
YEAH, ONLY THREE OTHER PEOPLE.
USUALLY THEY REQUIRE THAT WE
WEAR GLOVES AS WELL.
>> Ian: IT'S A ROUTINE FLIGHT?
>> YEAH, PRETTY MUCH, YEAH.
>> Ian: HARBOUR AIR HAS BEEN IN
BUSINESS FOR ALMOST FOUR DECADES
AND SAYS IN A NORMAL YEAR IT
FLIES ABOUT 500,000 PASSENGERS
ON ITS FLEET OF 40 SEAPLANES.
BUT IN MARCH IT SHUT DOWN FOR A
WEEK AND THEN RESTARTED ONE
ROUTE AS AN ESSENTIAL SERVICE.
>> OKAY, WELCOME ABOARD,
EVERYONE.
MY NAME IS COREY.
>> Ian: THIS MONTH IT'S TAKING A
SHOT AT EXPANDING ITS SCHEDULE.
HOPING MORE PEOPLE ARE READY TO
FLY.
>> WE'RE EXPECTING SLOWLY FOR
PEOPLE TO START BECOMING
COMFORTABLE AND COMING BACK.
THE LOCAL LEISURE, WE'RE HOPING
THAT PASSENGERS WILL EXPLORE
B.C.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL IN OUR OWN
PROVINCE.
AND WE HAVE A WAY TO GET THEM TO
UNIQUE DESTINATIONS.
>> Ian: THE QUESTION FOR HARBOUR
AIR ISN'T JUST HOW MANY PEOPLE
ARE GOING TO SIT ON THESE
PLANES, BUT IT IS ALSO, WILL
THEY HAVE PLACES TO GO?
THE COMPANY IS ADVERTISING ITS
NEWLY EXPANDED SCHEDULE UNDER
THE BANNER "B.C. HOLI-STAY" SO
THEY NEED THE REST OF THE
TOURIST SECTOR TO OPEN UP AS
WELL.
TAKE WHISTLER, FOR EXAMPLE.
THE RESORT HAS BEEN CLOSED SINCE
MARCH.
AT THIS TIME OF YEAR YOU'D
USUALLY SEE HIKERS AND CYCLISTS
EVERYWHERE.
AND SO FOR MANY PEOPLE HERE THE
RE-OPENING EARLIER THIS WEEK OF
THE RESORT'S BIGGEST HOTEL, THE
FAIRMONT SHADOW WHISTLER --
>> CHECK YOUR MOM FIRST?
OKAY.
>> Ian: COMPLETE WITH GUEST
TEMPERATURES CHECKED ON ARRIVAL,
IS A SIGN OF HOPE.
>> YOU KNOW, WE'RE CAUTIOUSLY
OPTIMISTIC.
>> Ian: THE HOTEL'S DIRECTOR
SAYS THAT COVID CHANGED ALMOST
EVERYTHING FROM FEWER SEATS TO
MORE PLEXIGLASS AT THE
RESTAURANTS TO KEEPING ROOMS
EMPTY FOR TWO DAYS AFTER
CHECKOUT.
THE HOTEL ESTIMATES THAT
DOWNTIME MEANS THAT THEY'LL ONLY
BE ABLE TO OFFER 30% TO 50% OF
THEIR
NORMAL CAPACITY.
BUT THEY'RE PREDICTING PRETTY
WELL ALL OF THOSE AVAILABLE
ROOMS WILL BE OCCUPIED.
>> IT'S THE PACE OF THE BOOKINGS
THAT ARE COMING IN NOW.
IT'S THE FACT THAT
WE HAVE A LOT OF REGULAR
CLIENTELE.
AND THEN WHILE WE CAN'T
RECEIVE GUESTS INTERNATIONALLY
AND FROM THE U.S. AND SO ON,
NEITHER CAN B.C. RESIDENTS
TRAVEL ANYWHERE.
SO WE BELIEVE THAT ALL OF THE
B.C. RESIDENTS ARE THINKING
RIGHT NOW, WHAT AM I GOING TO DO
FOR THE SUMMER.
WHAT IS OUR VACATION GOING TO BE
THIS YEAR.
>> IT'S A REALLY POSITIVE SIGN
THAT THEY'RE SEEING THAT THERE'S
CONFIDENCE IN THE TRAVEL MARKET.
>> Ian: THE TOURISM MANAGEMENT
PROGRAMME AT THE B.C. INSTITUTE
OF TECHNOLOGY HAS BEEN TRACKING
TRENDS IN THE PROVINCE.
>> I THINK PEOPLE ARE FEELING
MORE CONFIDENT AND ALSO IN
BRITISH COLUMBIA WE'RE LUCKY
THAT WE HAVE A LOW INFECTION
RATE OF NEW INFECTIONS, SO
PEOPLE ARE FEELING MORE
COMFORTABLE THAT THEY CAN START
DOING, YOU KNOW, BEHAVIOURS THAT
WE COULDN'T HAVE DONE A COUPLE
MONTHS AGO.
>> Ian: BUT LIKE THE HOTEL,
HARBOUR AIR'S BEST-CASE SCENARIO
IS WELL BELOW NORMAL.
WITH FEWER FLIGHTS THAN LAST
SUMMER AND KEEPING MORE SEATS
EMPTY ON BIGGER PLANES, THEY
EXPECT ABOUT 20% TO 30% OF THE
SALES THEY HAD LAST YEAR.
>> THAT'S WHAT WE'RE PROJECTING
RIGHT NOW.
WE'RE HOPING IT'S BETTER.
WE HOPE THAT THINGS OPEN UP AND
PEOPLE BECOME COMFORTABLE.
BUT WE NEED TO BE CAUTIOUS.
>> Ian: STILL AHEAD ON "THE
NATIONAL," REVAMPING AN ICONIC
GRAFFITI ALLEY.
BUT FIRST --
>>> CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CLASS
OF 2020.
>> Ian: SOME OF THE WORLD STARS
JOIN THE OBAMAS FOR THE "DEAR
CLASS OF 2020" EVENT ON
YouTube TODAY TO HONOUR THIS
YEAR'S UNIVERSITY GRADUATES.
CELEBRITIES AND FORMER MEMBERS
OF GOVERNMENT, ACTIVISTS AND
OTHER PUBLIC FIGURES TOOK PART
IN A FOUR-HOUR EVENT THAT ALSO
PAID TRIBUTE TO GEORGE FLOYD.
>> WE CAN SEE SO CLEARLY WHAT
INJUSTICE LOOKS LIKE.
>> THANK YOU.
>> Ian: AND ALONG WITH THE
THEMES OF HOPE AND RESILIENCE,
OPTIMISM, AND HUMOUR, INCLUDING
FROM THE CAST OF "SCHITT'S
CREEK."
>> SO IT IS THE FUTURE OF THIS
CLASS OF 2020 --
>> SO THANK YOU.
AND MAY YOU CONTINUE TO
BRIGHTEN --
>> ILLUMINATE.
>> ILLUMINATE THE PATH FOR MANY
MORE TO COME.
>> Ian: CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL
OF THE GRADUATES THIS YEAR.
>> * THERE'S A HERO 
>> Ian: ACROSS CANADA IT'S BEEN
PROJECTED THAT 400,000 ELECTIVE
SURGERIES HAVE BEEN CANCELLED OR
DELAYED BECAUSE OF COVID-19.
NOW AS THEY BEGIN TO RESUME, THE
HOSPITAL EXPERIENCE WILL BE VERY
DIFFERENT TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE.
CBC PHOTOJOURNALIST EVAN MATSUI
AND HEALTH REPORTER ADAM MILLER
RECENTLY SPENT
THE DAY INSIDE OF TORONTO'S
NORTH YORK GENERAL HOSPITAL TO
DOCUMENT HOW DOCTORS AND NURSES
AND PATIENTS ARE COPING IN THIS
NEW WORLD.
>> IT'S NOT THE BEST TIME IN MY
LIFE BUT WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO
DO?
I'M 72 AND FOR MY AGE I WAS
NEVER IN A HOSPITAL.
>> Reporter: DO YOU MIND IF I
ASK WHAT YOU'RE HERE FOR?
>> THEY WANT TO EXPLORE MORE.
THEY WANT TO PUT SOME CHEMICALS
-- CAMERAS AND CHECK IT OUT.
(*)
>> THE SURGERY ITSELF IS NOT
DIFFERENT.
IT'S ALL OF THE PRECAUTION STEPS
THAT WE HAVE TO DO TO GET THE
PATIENT INTO THE
OPERATING ROOM.
FACE MASKS, TWO SHIELDS ON TOP
AND MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE
GOWNED CORRECTLY.
AND IT THROWS OFF YOUR FLOW.
IT THROWS OFF JUST THE RHYTHM OF
THE DAY.
EVERYTHING IS STRETCHED OUT AND
JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE -- JUST
DELAYED.
EVERYTHING JUST TAKES MUCH
LONGER THAN IT USED TO.
I THINK THAT IT'S TOUGH BEING A
PATIENT, FEELING ALONE FROM THE
DOCTOR'S PERSPECTIVE, IT'S NOT
-- IT'S NOT WHAT WE'RE USED TO.
I'M NOT USED TO NOT HAVING THAT
PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP BEFORE ANY
TYPE OF CANCER SURGERY.
AND THAT'S WHAT I DO.
I'M USED TO LOOKING AT SOMEONE
IN THE EYES AND TALKING TO THEM
AND GOING THROUGH THINGS.
>> AS WE KIND OF OPEN THINGS UP
A LITTLE BIT, HOW ARE YOU GOING
TO MANAGE THAT?
>> WE'RE LOOKING AT ALL SORTS OF
OPTIONS WHETHER IT IS EXTENDING
SHIFTS, WORKING WEEKENDS,
WORKING LONGER SHIFTS STARTING
LATER IN THE DAY AND GOING LATER
INTO THE NIGHT.
THERE'S ONLY A FINITE NUMBER OF
RESOURCES AVAILABLE AND IF WE
TRY TO DO IT ALL TOO QUICKLY
WE'RE GOING TO BURN PEOPLE OUT
IN THE PROCESS AND AT THE SAME
TIME NOT DO AS GOOD A JOB AS WE
CAN.
(*)
>> [indiscernible]
>> I FINISHED CORONA AND AFTER
AGAIN I FEEL GOOD AND THEN I
FEEL VERY BAD IN MY THROAT AND
THE FEVER JUST CAME.
>> THEY'RE FULLY ALONE IN THE
EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, SCARED.
NOT HAVING ANY PHYSICAL PRESENCE
OF A SOCIAL SUPPORT.
I THINK THAT IT'S EVEN MORE
IMPORTANT TO LISTEN.
TO BE KIND.
TO TRY TO PUT YOURSELVES IN
THEIR POSITION.
YOU DID GREAT.
GOOD WORK.
I WILL PUT MY HANDS ON A PATIENT
AND SAY, IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY.
BECAUSE THEY NEED THAT.
REMEMBER THAT THEY DON'T HAVE
THE SAME BODILY CUES FROM ME
THAT THEY NORMALLY WOULD, SO I
TRY TO DIVERT MY EXPRESSION WITH
MY EYES, WITH MY VOICE, WITH MY
BODY LANGUAGE AS MUCH AS
POSSIBLE.
THIS IS SO DIFFERENT.
THERE'S NO END IN SIGHT.
THIS DOES BOND US YET WE CAN'T
HUG EACH OTHER AND WE CAN'T DO
HIGH-FIVES.
AND WE CAN'T HUG OUR PATIENTS.
IT'S VERY DIFFERENT.
AND THERE'S NO LIGHT AT THE END
OF THE TUNNEL BECAUSE WE DON'T
KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO END.
(*)
>> WHEN DID IT CHANGE?
I CAN REMEMBER THAT IT WAS A
SUNDAY AND WE HEARD ABOUT IT ON
THE NEWS THAT ELECTIVE SURGERIES
ARE BEING CANCELLED.
AND I THOUGHT, OH, THIS IS IT,
OUR WORLD IS GOING TO CHANGE.
A CASE THAT WOULD TAKE TWO HOURS
IS MAYBE TAKING 3 1/2, 4 HOURS.
JUST TO DON OUR P.P.E. CAN TAKE
15, 20 MINUTES TO DO IT
PROPERLY.
WE BRING THE PATIENTS IN THE
ROOM, WE INTUBATE THEM AND WE
HAVE TO WAIT 15 MINUTES AND THEN
THE TEAM CAN COME IN, START THE
SURGERY, DO THE SURGERY.
THEY LEAVE, EXCAVATE THE PATIENT
AND WAIT 15 MINUTES.
OUR HOURS HAVE CHANGED, OUR
PRIORITIES HAVE CHANGED.
IT'S FRUSTRATING BECAUSE WE KNOW
THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE
THAT NEED TO BE DONE.
SO WE WANT TO GET THEM THROUGH
AND HELP THEM AND TO NOT TO BE
ABLE TO DO THAT IS NOT OUR
NATURE, NOT MY NATURE.
AND, YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING TO BE
A LONG TIME TO CATCH UP TO GET
BACK TO WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE.
>> Reporter: HOW HAS IT
BROUGHT YOU AND YOUR TEAM
TOGETHER?
>> IT'S LIKE THE WALLS WERE TORN
DOWN.
EVERYONE WAS SUPPORTING
EVERYBODY.
WE WERE ALL GOING THROUGH THIS
TOGETHER.
AND WE ALL SUPPORTED EACH OTHER
AND WE STILL DO IN EVERY SINGLE
WAY.
I THINK THAT THERE'S A HUMBLING
ELEMENT TO THIS FOR EVERYBODY
WHO, AGAIN, CAME TOGETHER --
EVEN FROM THE PATIENT, HEALTH
CARE PROVIDER PERSPECTIVE IN
TERMS OF JUST MAKING THIS WORK
AND GETTING THROUGH IT.
AND THAT THIS IS OUR NEW NORMAL.
I THINK THAT IT'S GOING TO BE
THIS WAY FOR QUITE A WHILE.
(*)
>> Ian: COVID HAS KILLED MORE
THAN 7,800 PEOPLE IN THIS
COUNTRY AND WE'RE TELLING THE
STORIES OF MANY OF THEM THROUGH
A SPECIAL SERIES THAT WE ARE
CALLING "LIVES REMEMBERED."
>> MY NAME IS HELEN LEE AND I
LOST MY GRANDMOTHER TO COVID-19
ON APRIL 24th.
SHE WAS 111 YEARS OLD.
A REMARKABLE WOMAN WAY AHEAD OF
HER TIME.
SHE WAS BORN IN CHINA IN 1908 AT
A TIME OF GREAT POLITICAL AND
SOCIAL UNREST.
AT 18 SHE MARRIED NAM JACK, WHO
HAD RETURNED TO CHINA IN SEARCH
OF A BRIDE.
HE HAD PAID A $500 HEAD TAX TO
ENTER CANADA.
IT WAS ACTUALLY THE CHINESE
EXCLUSION ACT THAT SEPARATED OUR
FAMILY FOR DECADES.
ONCE MORE HE RETURNED TO CHINA
AND THEY HAD TWO CHILDREN.
SHORTLY AFTER THE BIRTH OF MY
MOTHER, HE LEFT.
AT 50 SHE TRAVELLED ALONE TO
CANADA FINALLY.
THEY HAD 12 LOVELY YEARS
TOGETHER.
IT WAS HIS HOPE THAT IT WAS THE
APOLOGY THAT SPURRED HER SOCIAL
ACTIVISM IN HER SENIOR YEARS.
HER PASSION FOR JUSTICE AND
EQUITY INSPIRED MYSELF, MY
MOTHER AND THE BROADER CHINESE
COMMUNITY.
IT WAS 22 YEARS BEFORE SHE
FINALLY HEARD THE PARLIAMENTARY
APOLOGY IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
SHE WAS 98 YEARS OLD BY THEN.
MY GRANDMOTHER LIVED
INDEPENDENTLY ON HER OWN IN HER
OWN HOUSE UNTIL THE AGE OF 107.
SHE LOVED GROWING MELONS IN HER
BACKYARD.
AT THE NURSING HOME SHE WAS A
ROCK STAR.
SHE REQUIRED NO MEDICATION, SHE
WALKED ON HER OWN, WHIZZED BY
EVERYONE AND HER MICHAEL KOR
KNITTED HAT.
AND SHE READ
EVERYTHING THAT THE STAFF WROTE.
MY GRANDMOTHER TAUGHT ME
PERSEVERANCE AND GRACE IN THE
FACE OF ADVERSITY.
TO CHALLENGE INJUSTICES, AND TO
BE A GOOD DOER OF EVERYTHING
THAT GOD HAS GIVEN US.
ON APRIL 24th I WAS OUTSIDE
HER NURSING HOME AS THE MEDIA
COVERED THE OUTBREAK.
THAT EVENING AS THE COVERAGE
AIRED,
GRANDMOTHER LEFT.
I WILL MISS TAKING SELFIES WITH
MY GRANDMOTHER.
I'D GIVE ANYTHING TO TAKE
ANOTHER SELFIE WITH HER.
I AM GOING TO MISS MY
GRANDMOTHER DEEPLY BECAUSE I
KNOW THAT OUR NATION STILL NEEDS
TO HEAR HER VOICE.
>> Ian: THANKS TO HELEN LEE FOR
SHARING THAT STORY.
IF YOU'VE LOST A LOVED ONE TO
COVID-19 AND WOULD LIKE TO TELL
US ABOUT THEM, EMAIL US AT
COVID@CBC.CA.
>>> WE WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT
TONIGHT TO REMEMBER A CBC
COLLEAGUE.
YOU MAY NOT KNOW HIS
NAME BUT YOU HAVE CERTAINLY
HEARD HIS VOICE.
(*)
PETER LEO WAS A HUGE PART OF CBC
NEWS FOR NEARLY 30 YEARS.
MOST OF THEM IN RADIO.
AS A SENIOR PRODUCER, HE HELPED
TO SHAPE PROGRAMMES LIKE "THE
HOUSE," "THE WORLD THIS HOUR"
AND "THE WORLD AT 6," BUT WHAT
HE LOVED MOST WAS NEWS SPECIALS.
ELECTIONS, BUDGETS, THRONE
SPEECHES, GIVING CONTEXT
TO CONVERSATIONS AND MOMENTS
THAT YOU HEARD.
PETER DIED YESTERDAY OF A
PULMONARY EMBOLISM.
IT WAS ON HIS 64th BIRTHDAY.
AND FROM ALL OF US AT CBC NEWS
AND
"THE NATIONAL" HE WILL BE
MISSED.
(*)
(*)
>> HI, MY NAME IS JASMINE AND
I'M 7 YEARS OLD AND I WOULD LIKE
TO MAKE A STATEMENT.
* RISE UP 
* I'LL RISE UP 
* I'LL RISE UP TODAY 
* I'LL RISE UP 
* I'LL RISE UNAFRAID 
* I'LL RISE UP 
* AND I'LL DO IT A THOUSAND
TIMES AGAIN *
>> Ian: I LOVE WHEN SHE SLYLY
LOOKED AT
THE CAMERA TO MAKE SURE THAT WE
WERE THERE AND ROLLING.
WE WANTED TO PLAY A LITTLE MORE
OF JASMINE TO END THE PROGRAMME.
SHE WASN'T THE ONLY ARTIST
WHO MADE A STATEMENT THIS
WEEKEND.
OTHERS CHOSE TO PAINT AND
TRANSFORMING OUTDOOR SPACES INTO
A SHOW OF SOLIDARITY AND THEIR
MESSAGE IS TONIGHT'S "MOMENT."
>> THE IDEA ACTUALLY CAME OUT
WHEN I SAW THE BLACKOUT TUESDAY.
PEOPLE WERE POSTING THESE BLACK
SQUARES ON INSTAGRAM.
I THOUGHT IT'S A COOL WAY TO
PROMOTE SOMETHING ON INSTAGRAM,
BUT HOW CAN WE PHYSICALLY DO
THAT.
I STARTED TO REACH OUT TO PEOPLE
OF COLOUR THAT WOULD KNOW OTHER
PEOPLE THAT WE COULD MOBILIZE.
THE NEXT THING YOU KNEW WE HAD
40 PEOPLE.
>> WE DIDN'T WANT TO PUT
RESTRICTIONS OR LIMIT WHAT
PEOPLE CHOOSE TO PAINT.
OUR ONLY SORT OF SPECIFIC
REQUEST IS
THAT BLACK TO BE ONE OF THE MAIN
COLOURS.
YOU WOULD HAVE PEOPLE DOING
PORTRAITS OF DIFFERENT FOLKS
THAT HAVE UNFORTUNATELY PASSED
AWAY UNDER SIMILAR
CIRCUMSTANCES.
THE PUBLIC IS RESPONDING VERY
WELL.
>> PEOPLE HAVE BEEN REALIZING
THAT THERE ARE EMPTY PARKING LOT
SPACES OR BIG WALLS THAT THEY
HAVE
THAT HAVE TAGS THAT COULD BE
USED FOR MORE BEAUTIFUL MESSAGES
AND POWERFUL MESSAGES.
>> Ian: ALL OF THOSE MESSAGES
LOOK SO INTERESTING, BUT I HAVE
NOT BEEN THERE.
AND GIVEN HOW
THINGS ARE GOING WITH AIR TRAVEL
RIGHT NOW, I'M NOT SURE WHEN I
WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO SEE IT IN
PERSON.
BUT FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO CAN,
THAT'S A PRETTY COOL THING TO
TAKE A LOOK AT.
THAT IS "THE NATIONAL" FOR
SUNDAY, JUNE 7.
GOOD NIGHT.
