>> Adrienne: ON THIS THURSDAY
NIGHT, TORONTO POLICE TWEET OUT
A RARE PUBLIC WARNING THAT
RAISES MORE QUESTIONS THAN IT
ANSWERS.
OFFICERS SERVE RESIDENTS AND
TOURISTS WITH A HEAVY DOWNTOWN
PRESENCE.
ALL THE WHILE TELLING PEOPLE TO
JUST CARRY ON WITH WHAT THEY'RE
DOING AS NORMAL.
A CONFUSING MESSAGE FOR A CITY
WITH A DEADLY VAN ATTACK STILL
ON THE MIND.
>> Ian: ALSO TONIGHT, THE U.S.
PRESIDENT TAKES HIS TOUGH TALK
FROM BRUSSELS TO BRITAIN.
PROTESTERS OF DONALD TRUMP ARE
SET TO UNLEASH THEIR SCORN
TOMORROW, BUT TODAY WAS ALL
ABOUT THE POMP.
TRUMP'S GRAND TOUR OF EUROPE
CONTINUES.
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL".
[ * ]
>> Adrienne: FROM COPS AND
CRUISERS ON STREET CORNERS TO
CONFUSED AND CAUTIOUS TEXT
MESSAGES FROM FAMILY AND
FRIENDS, THERE WAS AN AIR OF
TENSION IN DOWNTOWN TORONTO
TODAY.
ARMED AND WATCHFUL, EVEN AS THEY
MADE CLEAR IN A MIDDAY NEWS
CONFERENCE THAT TORONTO POLICE
WOULDN'T SAY WHAT THEY WERE
WATCHING OUT FOR.
JACQUELINE HANSEN EXPLAINS.
>> Reporter: THIS MANY OFFICERS
IN DOWNTOWN TORONTO IS UNUSUAL.
SO WAS A VAGUE TWEET THIS
MORNING FROM POLICE.
IT SAID POLICE ARE RESPONDING TO
AN UNCONFIRMED, UNCORROBORATED
PIECE OF INFORMATION RELATING TO
THE GREATER TORONTO AREA.
AS A RESULT, THERE IS AN
INCREASED NUMBER OF POLICE
OFFICERS IN THE DOWNTOWN CORE.
>> EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK, THERE IS
POLICE OFFICERS EVERYWHERE, YOU
HOPE FOR THE BEST AND THAT IT'S
REALLY NOTHING.
>> MAKES ME A LITTLE EDGY, BUT
WHAT DO YOU DO?
>> Reporter: BUT IT WAS A PRESS
CONFERENCE, NOT AN INCIDENT THAT
ENDED UP BEING THE SPECTACLE.
>> TORONTO POLICE RECEIVED
INFORMATION REGARDING
SUBSTANTIAL RISK TO PUBLIC
SAFETY.
>> Reporter: POLICE DIDN'T
REVEAL WHAT THE TIP WAS OR WHO
IT CAME FROM.
>> WE'RE NOT GOING TO COMMENT ON
ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE
INFORMATION RECEIVED.
>> Reporter: IN FACT, HE
ENCOURAGED PEOPLE TO GO ABOUT
THEIR BUSINESS AS USUAL.
>> I CAN'T RECALL THE LAST TIME
THAT WE HAD A PRESS CONFERENCE
OF THIS NATURE WHERE THE TORONTO
POLICE SERVICE SAID, LOOK, WE
HAVE INFORMATION, IT'S
UNCONFIRMED, IT'S
UNCORROBORATED, BUT WE'RE TAKING
IT SERIOUSLY, SO WE'RE ACACTING
ON IT.
>> Reporter: THE RECENT VAN
ATTACK HAS LIKELY CHANGED HOW
PEOPLE RESPOND.
>> THERE IS PRESSURE THAT IF YOU
HAVE INKLING THAT SOMETHING
SIMILAR TO THAT IS GOING HAPPEN,
YOU'RE GOING TO ACT ON IT.
>> Reporter: THE MOVIE COMPANY
U-HAUL WAS TOLD TO WATCH OUT FOR
SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOR WHEN RENTING
OUT VEHICLES.
U-HAUL WAS ONE OF MANY COMPANIES
CONTACTED BY THE ONTARIO
PROVINCIAL POLICE ON JULY 11.
BUT TODAY, AT THE HUB OF THE
CITY'S MOST WELL KNOWN TOURIST
ATTRACTIONS, SOME OF THE EXTRA
POLICE ON PATROL CHATTED WITH
CURIOUS PEOPLE PASSING BY, AND
HELPED WITH DIRECTIONS.
AND SOME MUSIC FANS PLAN TO BE
BACK TONIGHT NO MATTER WHAT FOR
A FOO FIGHTERS CONCERT.
>> I'M NOT GOING TO LET SOMEONE
RUIN MY FREEDOM.
YOU KNOW, I WANT TO SEE A
CONCERT.
SHOW MUST GO ON.
>> Adrienne: SO JACQUELINE IS IN
THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN TORONTO.
SO MANY PEOPLE WERE GETTING TEXT
MESSAGES TODAY SAYING IS
EVERYTHING OK?
WHAT BASICALLY IS THE PUBLIC
SUPPOSED TO MAKE OF THIS, TO DO
WITH THE INFORMATION?
>> Reporter: I KNOW.
POLICE, THEY WERE IN A TOUGH
SPOT.
IF THEY DIDN'T COME OUT AND SAY
WHY THERE WERE EXTRA OFFICERS ON
THE STREETS, THERE WOULD HAVE
BEEN EVEN MORE QUESTIONS.
LIKE YOU SAID, THIS IS ONE OF
THE AREAS DOWNTOWN WHERE WE SAW
INCREASED POLICE PRESENCE.
IF YOU JUST TAKE A LOOK BEHIND
ME, THERE IS NOW A DUMP TRUCK
BLOCKING THIS STREET ALONG WITH
THE POLICE CAR.
BUT THIS IS ACTUALLY NORMAL FOR
THIS AREA.
THAT CONCERT THAT I MENTIONED
EARLIER IS HAPPENING AT THE
ROGERS CENTRE BEHIND ME, SO
TORONTO REGULARLY INCREASES
SECURITY MEASURES WHEN THERE IS
GOING TO BE A LOT OF PEOPLE IN
ONE LOCATION FOR AN EVENT.
TODAY'S EFFORTS WERE EXTRA
ATTEMPT TO KEEP THINGS CALM.
AND EVEN THOUGH POLITICIANS AND
POLICE HAVE SAID AGAIN AND AGAIN
RECENTLY THAT THIS CITY IS SAFE,
TODAY'S EVENTS, BUT ALSO THE
RECENT STRING OF SHOOTINGS IN
THE CITY HAVE MADE PEOPLE
QUESTION THAT.
TODAY, THOUGH, IT SEEMED IT WAS
MORE ABOUT ACTION.
SO THE INCREASED POLICE PRESENCE
DOWNTOWN, BUT ALSO WE HEARD THAT
THEY'LL BE ADDING 200 EXTRA
OFFICERS OVERNIGHT ON THE
STREETS DURING THE PEAK HOURS
FOR GUN VIOLENCE.
SO BOTH ATTEMPTS TO DETER BAD
BEHAVIOR, BUT ALSO REASSURE
PEOPLE THAT THIS CITY IS STILL
SAFE.
>> Adrienne: JACQUELINE, THANK
YOU VERY MUCH, A FINE BALANCE
THERE.
>> Ian: HERE'S A LOOK AT WHAT
ELSE WE'RE WORKING ON TONIGHT.
THE CANADIAN DIVER WHO HELPED
RESCUE THE TRAPPED SOCCER TEAM
TALKS TO CBC ON THE GROUND IN
THAILAND.
>> Adrienne: AS DOUG FORD'S
GOVERNMENT FOLLOWS THROUGH ON
ITS PLAN TO SCRAP ONTARIO'S
UPDATED SEX ED CURRICULUM, WE'LL
LOOK AT WHAT CANADIAN KIDS ARE
LEARNING FROM PROVINCE TO
PROVINCE.
>> Ian: FIRST, THOUGH, DONALD
TRUMP IN THE U.K. TONIGHT, THE
SECOND STOP IN THE EUROPEAN
TRIP, THE SECOND LOCATION WHERE
OTHER WORLD LEADERS SEEM TO BE
WALKING ON EGGSHELLS.
AND TODAY THAT WAS IN BRITAIN
WITH THE PRIME MINISTER FACING
DOWN A NASTY POLITICAL BATTLE
OVER BREXIT.
ENTER U.S. PRESIDENT WHOSE
SUPPORT SHE COULD REALLY USE,
BUT AS SUSAN ORMISTON EXPLAINS,
THAT IS NOT WHAT DONALD TRUMP
SEEMED TO HAVE IN MIND.
>> Reporter: POMP AND CEREMONY.
A WELCOME SERENADE FROM WELSH,
IRISH AND SCOT GUARDS.
EXACTLY THE IMAGE THIS PRESIDENT
WANTS FROM HIS FIRST BRITISH
TOUR.
LONG DELAYED AND ARGUED OVER,
NEVER MIND THAT 70% OF THE
COUNTRY NOT HERE TONIGHT DOESN'T
LIKE HIM AND HALF DIDN'T WANT
HIM TO COME.
NO MATTER.
WHEN HE CAN BE GREETED BY
BUSINESS LEADERS AND CABINET
MINISTERS AT A GALA IN THE PLACE
WINSTON CHURCHILL WAS BORN.
THEN WATCH THE CURRENT PRIME
MINISTER WOO HIM.
THERESA MAY NEEDS MORE FROM THE
U.S., MORE TRADE, FEWER TARIFFS,
ESPECIALLY NOW.
>> SHE'S IN A VERY DIFFICULT
SPOT RIGHT NOW AND IT'S A
CATCH-22 BECAUSE OF BREXIT.
BREXIT HAS MADE THE U.S. MORE
IMPORTANT TO THE U.K., BECAUSE
NOW THEY'RE DOWNGRADING THEIR
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE EUROPEAN
UNION, THEY NEED TO FIND NEW
PARTNERS.
BUT TRUMP IS NOT THE PARTNER
THAT THE BRITISH PUBLIC WANTS.
>> Reporter: ALREADY, TRUMP HAS
THROWN A GRENADE INTO BRITISH
POLITICS.
HE DUMPED ON MAY'S BREXIT PLAN.
>> IF THEY DO A DEAL LIKE THAT,
WE'LL BE DEALING WITH THE
EUROPEAN UNION INSTEAD OF
DEALING WITH U.K., SO IT WILL
PROBABLY KILL THE DEAL.
HER NIGHTMARE.
PROTESTERS DON'T TRUST HIM.
WON'T EVEN SEE HIM AS HE TRAVELS
FROM ONE VENUE TO ANOTHER,
SEALED IN U.S. HELICOPTERS.
>> HE KNOWS THAT NO ONE LIKES
HIM IN THE COUNTRY.
HE'S SAYING THAT PEOPLE DO.
I THINK HE KNOWS HE'S UNPOPULAR
HERE.
>> Reporter: IF HE DOES, HE'S
NOT ADMITTING IT.
>> I THINK IT'S FINE, I THINK
THEY LIKE ME A LOT IN THE U.K.
>> Reporter: WELL, NOT BABY IVY,
FED UP WITH BEING A PROP FOR
ANOTHER BABY.
A FLOATING SYMBOL OF A CHILDISH
PRESIDENT SAY THE ORGANIZERS,
COMPLETE WITH A TWEETING TOOL.
>> MESSAGE THAT WE WANT TO SEND
TO PEOPLE WHO ARE SUFFERING
BECAUSE OF THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION IS THAT WE'RE
STILL HERE, AND NOT GIVING UP.
AND WE DON'T WANT THEM TO GIVE
UP EITHER.
>> Reporter: BUT THE GIMMICK,
FLOATING OVER PARLIAMENT
TOMORROW IS RISKY TO SOME.
>> HE HAS A REPUTATION OF BEING
THIN-SKINNED, WHICH IS A BIG
CONCERN, ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE
IS SO MUCH AT STAKE WITH THE
TRADE WARS THAT IS GOING ON.
>> Reporter: MORE MOVEMENTS
TOMORROW AGAIN BY CHOPPER.
THIS TOUR DESIGNED TO AVOID
MEETING ANY ORDINARY BRITS, EVEN
THOSE WHO SUPPORT HIM.
SO TONIGHT THE TRUMPS ARE BACK
AT THEIR HOTEL, SO TO SPEAK.
IT'S THE U.S. AMBASSADOR'S
RESIDENCE BEHIND THE SECURITY
FENCE RECENTLY ERECTED HERE,
LOOKING LIKE A FORTRESS.
THEY'LL SLEEP HERE TONIGHT.
THEIR ONLY LONDON STOP OF THE
ENTIRE TOUR.
>> Ian: AND THIS IS BILLED AS A
WORKING VISIT, WHEN DOES THAT
WORK BEGIN?
>> Reporter: WELL, TOMORROW AT
CHECKERS WITH THE PRIME MINISTER
ON THE AGENDA OF COURSE, TRADE,
BREXIT.
PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS WADED INTO
THAT SUGGESTING BRITS MAY NOT
GET WHAT THEY VOTED FOR, CAUSING
A STIR HERE ALREADY.
AND RUSSIA, WITH THAT SUMMIT
JUST DAYS AWAY.
AND THEN THE QUEEN GETS HER
CHANCE TO TAKE A MEASURE OF HER
12TH U.S. PRESIDENT.
NOT A STATE BANQUET LIKE THE
OBAMAS GOT.
THE TRUMPS HAVE BEEN INVITED FOR
TEA AT WINDSOR CASTLE.
>> Ian: THANK YOU.
NOW, A RESERVED BRITISH WELCOME
OR NOT, TRUMP IS RIDING A WAVE
OF SELF-DECLARED SUCCESS.
CLAIMING CREDIT FOR GETTING ALL
NATO COUNTRIES TO BOOST MILITARY
SPENDING TO 2%.
CANADA, THOUGH, SAYS THAT IS
SIMPLY NOT THE CASE.
CATHERINE CULLEN HAS BOTH VIEWS
FROM BRUSSELS.
>> I BELIEVE IN NATO, I THINK
NATO IS A VERY IMPORTANT,
PROBABLY THE GREATEST EVER DONE.
>> Reporter: DONALD TRUMP HAS
CALLED NATO OBSOLETE.
JUST YESTERDAY HE ASKED WHAT
GOOD IT WAS.
BUT THIS MORNING, THE U.S.
PRESIDENT BASICALLY SAID, HE'S
FIXED IT.
>> AND EVERYBODY IN THE ROOM
THANKED ME.
THERE IS A GREAT COLLEGIAL
SPIRIT IN THE ROOM THAT I DON'T
THINK THEY'VE HAD IN MANY YEARS.
THEY'RE VERY STRONG.
SO, YEAH.
VERY UNIFIED, VERY STRONG, NO
PROBLEM.
>> Reporter: HE INSISTED HE
SECURED A COMMITMENT FROM ALL
ALLIANCE MEMBERS.
AND TO DO IT SOON.
>> WE WILL GO HIGHER THAN 2%
INTO THE FUTURE, BUT RIGHT NOW,
WE'RE GETTING PEOPLE UP TO 2%
AND THAT WILL TAKE PLACE OVER A
FAIRLY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, A
SHORT NUMBER OF YEARS.
>> Reporter: BUT THAT'S NOT
QUITE WHAT JUSTIN TRUDEAU SAYS
CANADA HAS COMMITTED TO.
INCREASE, YES, BUT THE PRIME
MINISTER STATED CLEARLY ON
TUESDAY, CANADA IS NOT PLANNING
TO HIT THE 2% SPENDING TARGET.
>> THERE ARE NO PLANS TO DOUBLE
THE DEFENCE BUDGET.
>> Reporter: DID DONALD TRUMP
CHANGE THE PRIME MINISTER'S MIND
TODAY?
>> WE ARE INCREASING BY 70% OVER
THE NEXT DECADE.
OUR DEFENCE INVESTMENTS.
>> BUT NOT DOUBLING, AND YET
DONALD TRUMP IS SAYING --
>> 70 IS NOT DOUBLING.
>> DONALD TRUMP IS SAYING, AS
YOU'RE AWARE THAT ALL OF THE
ALLIES, NATO ALLIES AND WAS
ASKED ABOUT CANADA TODAY, ARE
GOING TO REACH 2%.
HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THE FACT THAT
HE SEEMS TO THINK YOU COMMITTED
TO THIS?
>> Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau: WE HAVE RECOMMITTED TO
OUR WALES ENGAGEMENT.
THE WALES COMMITMENT TO REVERSE
THE DECLINE IN SPENDING AND
INCREASE OUR SPENDING TOWARD 2%.
THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE
DOING.
>> Reporter: AND TOWARD IS THE
KEY WORD.
THERE IS NO PLAN FOR CANADA TO
ACTUALLY REACH THE GOAL.
NOW, JUSTIN TRUDEAU HAS INSISTED
THAT CANADA IS STILL PULLING ITS
WEIGHT, WITH QUALITY COMMITMENT
TO NATO.
HE DIDN'T ACTUALLY SAY AT ANY
POINT THAT HE AND DONALD TRUMP
ARE NOT ON THE SAME PAGE ON THIS
ISSUE, EVEN THOUGH THEY CLEARLY
ARE NOT.
BUT IT DOES MEAN THAT THE PRIME
MINISTER WILL LEAVE THIS
INTERNATIONAL SUMMIT, IT SEEMS,
WITHOUT TICKING OFF DONALD
TRUMP.
CATHERINE CULLEN, CBC NEWS,
BRUSSELS.
>> Ian: SO AFTER ALL OF HIS
TOUGH TALK OF THE NATO SUMMIT,
HOW WILL DONALD TRUMP DO AT HIS
MUCH ANTICIPATED SUMMIT WITH
VLADIMIR PUTIN?
NEXT WEEK IN HELSINKI.
ON THAT TOPIC, TRUMP WAS A
LITTLE LESS DEFINITIVE TODAY.
>> SOMEBODY WAS SAYING, IS HE AN
ENEMY?
HE'S NOT MY ENEMY.
HE'S A COMPETITOR.
HE'S REPRESENTING RUSSIA.
I'M REPRESENTING THE UNITED
STATES.
>> Ian: THE PRESIDENT DOES THINK
HE'LL GET ALONG WELL WITH PUTIN,
BUT WHEN ASKED WHAT HE THOUGHT
THE ULTIMATE OUTCOME WOULD BE,
HE STRUCK A SCORNFUL TONE.
>> NO MORE NUCLEAR WEAPONS IN
THE WORLD WOULD BE THE ULTIMATE.
NO MORE WARS, NO MORE PROBLEMS,
NO MORE CONFLICT, LET'S FIND A
CURE TO EVERY DISEASE KNOWN TO
MANKIND.
>> Ian: HE SAYS HE'LL RAISE
ISSUES, BUT IS NOT EXPECTING
FIRM ACTION FROM MOSCOW.
>> Adrienne: BACK AT HOME, THE
OFFICIAL START OF THE NEW ERA IN
ONTARIO.
THE FIRST LEGISLATIVE DAY ON THE
JOB FOR PREMIER DOUG FORD AND
THE NEWLY ELECTED PROGRESSIVE
CONSERVATIVE GOVERNMENT.
AND THAT MEANS IT WAS TIME FOR
THE THRONE SPEECH, LAYING OUT
THE BLUEPRINT FOR CHANGES TO
COME.
>> THE ERA OF ACCOUNTING TRICKS
AND SLEIGHT OF HAND MUST END.
>> Adrienne: AT THE TOP, A
COMMISSION WILL LOOK AT
GOVERNMENT SPENDING.
THERE WERE NODS TO CAMPAIGN
PROMISES.
AND TO SCRAP THE PROVINCE'S
CAP-AND-TRADE PROGRAMME.
THE GOVERNMENT RECOMMITTED
ITSELF TO CHANGES IN SCHOOLS,
INCLUDING THE REPEAL OF A SEX
EDUCATION CURRICULUM INTRODUCED
BY THE LIBERAL GOVERNMENT THREE
YEARS AGO.
THAT MOVE IS CERTAINLY NOT
WITHOUT CONTROVERSY.
RON CHARLES HAS BEEN TRACKING
REACTION TO IT ALL AND HAS THE
STORY FROM TORONTO.
>> OUR GOVERNMENT WANTS TO CRAP
CURRENT SEX ED.
>> Reporter: SEXUALITY EDUCATOR
NADINE THORNHILL PLANS TO
RELEASE YouTube VIDEOS.
>> I'M GOING TO BE TEACHING
THEM, SO THAT TEACHERS OR EVEN
PARENTS WHO WANT TO SHARE THIS
INFORMATION AT HOME WILL HAVE AN
EXAMPLE OF HOW TO DO THAT AND
THEY'LL HAVE ACCESS TO ALL OF
THE INFORMATION.
>> Reporter: THAT SEX ED
INFORMATION HAD BECOME A
LIGHTNING ROD FOR LOCAL GROUPS
OF PARENTS WHO FOUGHT AGAINST
IT, COMPLAINING IT TAUGHT TOO
MUCH TOO SOON.
AND REFERENCES TO SAME-SEX
RELATIONSHIPS.
NOW PARENTS WHO SUPPORT IT ARE
GEARING UP THE FIGHT TO
SCRAPPING IT.
>> THINGS LIKE SEXTING,
CYBERBULLYING.
THESE ARE NOT THINGS WE HAD TO
DEAL WITH IN 1998, SO IT'S
CRITICAL TO TEACH OUR KIDS HOW
TO COMMUNICATE IN RESPECTFUL
WAYS WITH ONE ANOTHER.
>> Reporter: MAJOR UNIONS FOR
ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY
TEACHERS SLAMMED THE SWITCH TO
THE OLD CURRICULUM.
SOME TEACHERS HAVE STARTED
TALKING ABOUT INCLUDING ELEMENTS
OF THE SCRAPPED SEX ED MATERIAL
IN OTHER PARTS.
>> THEY WILL WHEN THEY FEEL IT'S
APPROPRIATE TO EXPAND ON A
CURRICULUM OR EXPAND ON IDEAS
THAT THEY'RE DEALING WITH IN
THEIR CLASSROOMS IN AN AGE
APPROPRIATE WAY, THEY WILL DO
THAT.
AND THEY'VE ALWAYS DONE THAT.
>> Reporter: ASIDE FROM
THORNHILL'S YouTube SEX ED
TEACHING, THERE ARE PETITIONS
AND PROTESTS PLANNED AGAINST
WHAT CRITICS CALL A RETURN TO AN
OUTDATED CURRICULUM.
>> Adrienne: SO SEX EDUCATION IN
CANADA VARIES GREATLY BY
PROVINCE AND THERE IS A LACK OF
CONSISTENCY IN WHAT IS TAUGHT
AND WHEN.
FOR INSTANCE, CHILDREN ARE
EXPECTED TO KNOW THE PROPER
NAMES FOR BODY PARTS IN
KINDERGARTEN IN B.C., ALBERTA
AND MANITOBA AND QUÉBEC.
BUT THAT ISN'T IN NEW
BRUNSWICK'S CURRICULUM UNTIL
GRADE 6.
SEXUAL ORIENTATION IS TAUGHT IN
SASKATCHEWAN AND NOVA SCOTIA IN
GRADE 3.
GRADE 9 IN NEWFOUNDLAND AND
LABRADOR.
AND WHILE EVERY PROVINCE TALKS
ABOUT SEX, ONLY ONE CURRICULUM
DEVOTES TIME TO LOVE.
QUÉBEC.
>> Ian: TAKING YOU TO THAILAND
NOW WHERE THE THAI NAVY
S.E.A.L.s WHO HELPED RESCUE THE
SOCCER BOYS AND COACH FROM A
CAVE RECEIVED A HEROES' WELCOME
TODAY.
THIS IS THE SCENE AT AN AIR BASE
AS THE S.E.A.L. TEAM TOUCHED
DOWN.
DOZENS OF PEOPLE WERE THERE,
INCLUDING THE BOYS' RELATIVES TO
SAY THANK YOU.
THE MAN WHO LED THE TEAM, CALLED
IT A GROUP EFFORT.
THE THAI NAVY S.E.A.L.s WERE
SUPPORTED BY DRIVERS FROM AROUND
THE WORLD, AMONG THEM, ERIK
BROWN.
BRIAR STEWART CAUGHT UP WITH
HIM.
>> Reporter: WHEN DIVERS WENT IN
TO SWIM OUT THE SOCCER TEAM, ONE
BY ONE, OTHERS STOOD READY TO
HELP THEM MAKE IT THROUGH THE
MUDDY WATER AND PRECARIOUS
PASSAGES.
ERIK BROWN WAS PART OF THAT
CREW.
HE IS A CANADIAN WHO NOW LIVES
IN THAILAND.
>> THEY CALLED IN THE BEST OF
THE WORLD FOR SURE.
>> Reporter: HE SAYS THE
EXPERIENCE HASN'T SUNK IN.
>> SIX MONTHS, YOU CAN GO IN
THERE DRY AND SEE WHAT IT IS
LIKE.
ACTUALLY GOING THERE AND
SEARCHING AND FINDING WAYS, IT
WAS UNREAL.
>> Reporter: THE DIVERS HAD BEEN
PRAISED FOR THEIR EXPERTISE AND
HEROISM, BUT BROWN BELIEVES IT'S
THE BOYS WHO DID SOMETHING
INCREDIBLE.
>> TESTAMENT TO THOSE, HOW BRAVE
THEY WERE, MIND BLOWING, WHAT
THOSE KIDS HAVE GONE THROUGH,
HOW STRONG THEY WERE.
>> Reporter: IT WAS THE TEAM'S
ASSISTANT COACH, EKKAPOL
CHANTHAWONG, WHO DECIDED TO TAKE
THE KIDS INTO THE CAVE IN THE
FIRST PLACE, BUT HE'S ALSO
CREDITED IN HELPING THEM
SURVIVE.
HE GAVE THEM HIS FOOD,
JEOPARDIZING HIS OWN HEALTH.
HE LOVES THE CHILDREN SAYS HIS
AUNT WHO WENT TO THE HOSPITAL
TODAY.
SHE KNEW SHE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO
GIVE HIM A HUG, BECAUSE HE AND
THE REST OF THE TEAM ARE IN
ISOLATION.
STILL, SHE WANTED TO SEE HIM
THROUGH THE GLASS WINDOW.
BUT AFTER DRIVING AN HOUR AND A
HALF TO THE HOSPITAL, SHE WAS
TOLD BY SECURITY SHE WOULD HAVE
TO COME BACK LATER.
I WANT TO TELL HIM TO KEEP
FIGHTING AND BE STRONG, SHE
SAYS.
AND THE 25-YEAR-OLD COACH HAS
DONE THAT BEFORE.
BOTH OF HIS PARENTS AND HIS
YOUNGER BROTHER DIED WHEN HE WAS
JUST A CHILD.
EVEN THOUGH HE GREW UP IN
NORTHERN THAILAND, HE IS AN
ETHNIC MINORITY AND CONSIDERED
STATELESS.
WHILE HIS LIFE HAS BEEN FULL OF
STRUGGLES, HIS AUNT SAYS
COACHING THE TEAM BROUGHT HIM
JOY.
WHILE MANY WILL QUESTION JUST
WHY THE BOYS WERE TAKEN INTO THE
CAVE DURING THE RAINY SEASON,
ONCE THEY WERE TRAPPED, SHE SAID
HER NEPHEW DID EVERYTHING
POSSIBLE TO KEEP THEM ALIVE.
>> Ian: WE'RE KEEPING OUR EYE ON
A NUMBER OF STORIES.
INCLUDING AN EXPLOSION NEAR THE
EGYPT CAIRO AIRPORT.
12 PEOPLE WERE HURT.
THOSE NEAR THE AIRPORT FELT THE
BLAST.
IT SHOWS FLAMES AND SMOKE RISING
NEAR THE AIRPORT.
A MILITARY SPOKESPERSON SAID THE
BLAST HAPPENED AT A CHEMICAL
FACTORY AND WAS CAUSED BY HIGH
TEMPERATURES.
>>> THIS WAS THE VIEW FROM ONE
OF OUR COLLEAGUES DRIVING IN
NEWFOUNDLAND AS POST TROPICAL
STORM CHRIS BATTERED
SOUTHEASTERN PARTS OF THE
PROVINCE.
THE GOOD NEWS, THE STORM WILL
PASS BY TOMORROW MORNING.
>> Adrienne: AHEAD TONIGHT ON
"THE NATIONAL", THERE IS A NEW
CHARACTER COMING TO AVONLEA TT
AND HE IS THE SIGN OF A NEW
TREND IN PERIOD DRAMA.
A PUSH TO INCLUDE A MORE
INCLUSIVE HISTORY.
>> Ian: WE'LL TAKE YOU INSIDE A
CLASSROOM ARE TEACHERS ARE THE
STUDENTS AND THEY'RE LEARNING TO
CARRY GUNS.
>> FIRST, THOUGH, HER SON WAS
KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT AT A
CANADIAN FORCES BASE HERE AT
HOME.
AN ACCIDENT SHE IS NOW TOLD WAS
PREVENTABLE.
>> IT'S LIKE UNBELIEVABLE.
CRAZY, I JUST DON'T GET IT.
THE ARMY KILLED MY SON.
>> Adrienne: OFFICIALS COULD
HAVE PREVENTED THE DEATH OF A
CANADIAN SOLDIER FOUR YEARS AGO
ACCORDING TO THE HEAD OF AN
INQUIRY INTO THE INCIDENT.
A DEADLY HAZARD IN THEIR LIGHT
ARMORED VEHICLES.
SOMETHING THE CANADIAN ARMED
FORCES KNEW ABOUT, BUT DID NOT
FIX.
ASHLEY BURKE WITH THE STORY FROM
OTTAWA.
>> Reporter: ANNA LOVEMAN DRIVES
HOURS TO ATTEND MILITARY EVENTS
LIKE THIS.
SHE DOESN'T WANT HER SON KYLE
SINCLAIR TO BE FORGOTTEN.
>> HE WOULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT
DAD.
>> Reporter: CBC NEWS OBTAINED A
REPORT INTO HIS DEATH.
IT FOUND IN 2014, SINCLAIR WAS
ORDERED TO FIX A SEAT BELT
INSIDE AN ARMORED VEHICLE.
HE PULLED A LEVER TO RAISE THE
DRIVER SEAT, THE SEAT SHOT
UPWARD, WINNING HIM AT THE NECK,
CRUSHING HIS WINDPIPE.
HE WAS ALL ALONE WITH NO WAY TO
ESCAPE.
LATER IN HOSPITAL, HIS MOTHER
MADE THE DIFFICULT DECISION TO
TAKE HIM OFF LIFE SUPPORT.
>> YOU'RE ALMOST NUMB.
YOU REALLY DON'T THINK THIS IS
REALLY HAPPENING.
AND THEN WHEN YOU SEE THE
STRAIGHT LINE, YOU GO, OK, IT
DID.
SO...
>> Reporter: THE PRESIDENT OF
THE BOARD OF INQUIRY CALLED
SINCLAIR'S DEATH NEEDLESS.
>> I THOUGHT A GOOD YOUNG MAN
HAD PASSED AWAY IN FAIRLY AWFUL
CIRCUMSTANCES.
AND IT DIDN'T NEED TO HAPPEN.
>> Reporter: THE INQUIRY
REVEALED THAT ANOTHER MEMBER OF
THE MILITARY DIED IN THE SAME
WAY SINCLAIR BACK IN 1999.
CHANGES TO THE DRIVER SEAT WERE
RECOMMENDED BACK THEN TO
ELIMINATE THE THREAT.
THE ARMY DECIDED AGAINST THAT.
SAYING THOSE CHANGES WOULD
COMPROMISE SOLDIERS' PROTECTION
FROM SHRAPNEL AND BULLETS.
>> THAT DECISION DIRECTLY
AFFECTED OR CAUSED IN THE END
THE DEATH OF CRAFTSMAN SINCLAIR.
>> Reporter: HE SAYS THE
DECISION WAS MADE BY THE BRIGADE
COMMANDER WHO AT THE TIME WAS
ANDREW LESLIE, A MEMBER OF
PARLIAMENT.
HE HAS DECLINED CBC'S REQUEST
FOR AN INTERVIEW.
THE ARMY HAS REPLACED THE SEATS
EXCEPT FOR FIVE STATIONED IN
LATVIA.
>> WE LEARNED FROM IT.
WE'RE SAFER TODAY THAN
YESTERDAY.
>> Ian: UP NEXT ON "THE
NATIONAL", SURE THEY SMILE FOR
THE CAMERA, ACCEPTED THEIR CHASE
THE ACE WINNINGS, BUT THAT'S
WHEN IT TURNED UGLY FOR THIS
AUNT AND NEPHEW.
>> Adrienne: A LITTLE LATER, THE
SURPRISE DELIVERY THAT BROUGHT
TOGETHER AN ENTIRE
NEIGHBOURHOOD.
>> MY WIFE LIKE IN THE MIDDLE OF
THE STAIRS SHE STARTS YELLING
AND SCREAMING I WAS LIKE, OH, MY
GOD, WHAT IS GOING ON AND SHE
[ * ]
>> Ian: POLICE SAY A PLAN HAS
DIED IN A PLAN CRASH IN MARKHAM,
ONTARIO.
HE WAS PILOTING THE SMALL
AIRCRAFT WHEN IT WENT DOWN AND
CAUGHT FIRE.
POLICE SAY NOTHING APPEARED
SUSPICIOUS.
TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD
INVESTIGATORS HAVE BEEN
DEPLOYED.
>>> POLICE IN TORONTO SAY THEY
HAVE COMPLETED THEIR SEARCH OF A
PROPERTY LYNCHED TO ALLEGED --
LINKED TO ALLEGED SERIAL KILLER
BRUCE McARTHUR.
THIS IS WHERE EARLIER THIS YEAR
THEY FOUND THE REMAINS OF SEVEN
MEN.
AND WHERE LAST WEEK, THEY FOUND
MORE, THOUGH WE DON'T KNOW WHO
THOSE BELONG.
BRUCE McARTHUR HAS BEEN CHARGED
WITH EIGHT COUNTS OF
FIRST-DEGREE MURDER.
>>> OK, AT THIS POINT IT SEEMED
SUCH A HAPPY MOMENT, A NEPHEW
AND AUNT, SPLITTING WINNINGS
FROM THE LOCAL CHASE THE ACE, A
FUNDRAISING LOTTERY.
BUT THINGS TOOK A TURN WHEN THE
AUNT, BARB REDDICK CLAIMED THE
JACKPOT WAS HERS ALONE.
>> THEY'RE GOING TO COURT, I'M
TAKING THEM TO COURT, IT WAS MY
TICKET.
>> WHY IS THAT?
>> BECAUSE I BOUGHT THE TICKET.
AND NOW HE'S TRYING TO LIE AND
SAY I SAID SPLIT.
>> Ian: BOTH NAMES WERE WRITTEN
ON THE TICKET, BUT BARB REDDICK
SAID SHE PUT HER NEPHEWS NAME ON
FOR GOOD LUCK.
THE CHAIR OF THE FUNDRAISER IS
DISAPPOINTED HOW THINGS PLAYED
OUT.
>> I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT.
I DIDN'T EXPECT ANYTHING LIKE
THAT TO HAPPEN.
I JUST CAME TO DELIVER THE
CHEQUES AND PRESENT THEM TO THE
WINNERS.
>> Ian: CURLY CHECKED WITH THE
ALCOHOL AND GAMING DIVISION,
THEY WERE FINE WITH THE
DECISION, BUT AS YOU HEARD,
SEEMS LIKE THIS WILL END UP IN
COURT.
>> Adrienne: PEEL BACK MOST
PERIOD PIECES, FORGET THE
COSTUMES, IGNORE THE DETAILED
SETS AND YOU MOSTLY FIND WHITE
ACTORS PLAYING WHITE CHARACTERS.
THE ARGUMENT, THAT'S WHO THE
MOVERS AND SHAKERS WERE AT THE
TIME.
IT'S A PRACTISE THE DIRECTORS OF
THE "ANNE OF GREEN GABLES" IS
CHALLENGING.
TOURIST.
>> Reporter: WHEN DALMAR ABUZEID
PLAYS BASH IN THE UPCOMING
SEASON OF "ANNE WITH AN E",
HE'LL BE DOING MORE THAN JUST
ADDING A NEW CHARACTER WHO
DIDN'T EXIST IN THE BOOKS THE
SERIES IS BASED ON.
HE WILL HELP CHANGE THE FACE OF
HISTORICAL DRAMA.
>> I DIDN'T REALIZE THE
IMPLICATIONS OF THE ROLE AND
AFTER THE FACT, I STARTED TO PUT
THINGS TOGETHER, OH, WOW, WHAT
DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE STORY OF
"ANNE OF GREEN GABLES", MY
CHARACTER, MY INTRODUCTION TO
IT?
>> IT'S SOMETHING THAT MOIRA
WALLEY-BECKETT HAS GIVEN A LOT
OF THOUGHT.
>> MY MASTER PLAN FROM THE
BEGINNING HAS BEEN TO MAKE THE
WORLD OF AVONLEA REFLECT THE
DIVERSE COLOURS OF CANADA.
>> Reporter: "ANNE WITH AN E" IS
AT THE VANGUARD OF A NEW
GENERATION OF TV SERIES WHICH IS
ARE CHALLENGING THE TRADITION
THAT HISTORICAL DRAMA HAS TO BE
ABOUT WHITE PEOPLE ONLY.
>> WHAT'S THAT?
>> Reporter: WITH A BIG BUDGET,
LAVISH COSTUMES, PERIOD PIECES
LIKE DOWNTON ABBEY MAKE FOR
POPULAR TELEVISION, BUT THESE
SHOWS DON'T REFLECT EVERYONE
WATCHING THEM TODAY.
FOR YEARS, THE REASONING BEHIND
THE CASTING WAS THAT IT WAS
ABOUT HISTORICAL ACCURACY.
>> WOULD IT BE FAIR TO SAY THAT
PERIOD DRAMA OR PERIOD
TELEVISION IS SORT OF THE LAST
BASTIAN OF VERY DIFFICULT TO
PUSH DIVERSITY, OR DIFFICULT TO
HAVE --
>> THEY SAY IT'S THE WHITEST
SPOT ON THE DIAL.
YEAH [LAUGHTER].
>> IS IT?
>> YEAH, THE WHITEST SPOT ON THE
DIAL.
>> Reporter: RATHER THAN JUST
PUTTING NONWHITE ACTORS, TV
CREATORS LIKE SUDZ SUTHERLAND
ARE SHINING A LIGHT.
THESE ARE PHOTOS OF TORONTO A
CENTURY AGO.
>> WHEN I'M DOING A PERIOD
PIECE, I WANT TO INSPIRE THE
CREW AND CAST AND TELL THEM,
BUILD A WORLD.
WHAT I WANT TO SHOW PEOPLE,
WELL, ACTUALLY IT'S A LOT MORE
DIVERSE THAN YOU THOUGHT.
>> Reporter: SUTHERLAND USES
ARCHIVE PHOTOS AND CENSUS
RECORDS TO TRY TO CONVINCE
PRODUCERS HISTORICAL PROJECTS
ARE WORTH DOING.
IT HASN'T ALWAYS WORKED, BUT HE
THINKS THINGS ARE CHANGING.
WITH THE COMMERCIAL SUCCESS OF
FILMS LIKE "BLACK PANTHER", THEY
SAY THAT DIVERSITY IS NOT JUST
THE RIGHT THING TO DO, IT MAKES
MONEY.
>> AS A VIEWER, IF YOU WERE A
JAPANESE-CANADIAN PERSON AND YOU
SEE YOURSELF IN THAT PERIOD
PIECE, YOU'RE LIKE, OH, THERE IS
A GLIMMER OF RECOGNITION.
BUT IF I HAVE A CLARK AND IF I
HAVE A SPEAKING PART, THEN MY
HUMANITY IS ACTUALLY SORT OF NOT
IN QUESTION.
>> Reporter: SUTHERLAND IS IN
GOOD COMPANY OF TV CREATORS
AROUND THE WORLD WHO ARE MINING
UNTOLD HISTORIES.
THIS HAR LOT ABOUT TWO BROTHELS.
>> I THINK YOU'RE FORGETTING
YOUR PLACE.
>> Reporter: BBC THE
MINIATURIST, WHICH TAKES PLACE
IN AMSTERDAM IN THE 17TH
CENTURY.
>> MY PLACE IS TO PROTECT THIS
HOUSE AND ALL IN IT, INCLUDING
YOU.
>> Reporter: ONE OF THE REWARDS
OF TELLING THE STORIES, THE
AUDIENCE LEARNS SOMETHING NEW
AND SOMETIMES SO DO THE
CREATORS.
IT HAPPENED WHEN "ANNE WITH AN
E" MOIRA WALLEY-BECKETT WANTED
TO INFUSE HER SERIES WITH MORE
DIVERSITY.
>> DO YOU HAVE IDEA THERE HAVE
BEEN BLACK PEOPLE IN PRINCE
EDWARD ISLAND SINCE 1751.
SHE WAS LIKE, NO I DIDN'T.
MOST PEOPLE DON'T,
>> Reporter: EDWARDS DISCOVERED
THE BOG.
>> THAT IS WHERE THE MAJORITY OF
BLACK PEOPLE LIVED IN PRINCE
EDWARD ISLAND AND THEY CAME FROM
THE STATES AS RUNAWAY SLAVES,
FORMER SOLDIERS.
SOME PEOPLE TRAVELLED ACROSS
FROM THE WEST INDIES AND THEY
FORMED A COMMUNITY.
FLUSH
>> Reporter: AND THAT COMMUNITY
WILL BE PROMINENTLY FEATURED ON
"ANNE WITH AN E", ALONGSIDE THE
NEW MAJOR CHARACTER BASH.
FOR ACTOR DALMAR ABUZEID, IT'S A
CHANCE TO LEAVE MISS MARK ON
GREEN GABLES AND MANY FANS AND
MAKE A MARKS IN HISTORY ALONG
THE WAY.
>> I HOPE THEY FALL IN LOVE.
I HOPE THEY LAUGH.
>> TEN YEARS MORE, THIS IS ALL I
HAVE.
>> Ian: STILL AHEAD ON "THE
NATIONAL", NICK PURDON FOLLOWS A
GROUP OF AMERICAN TEACHERS
TRAINING TO CARRY GUNS IN
SCHOOL.
>> I COACH FOOTBALL, THESE ARE
MY SONS, MY BOYS OUT THERE, I
TREAT THEM LIKE MY KIDS.
IF SOMETHING COMES IN, I FEEL
IT'S MY JOB TO PROTECT THEM ALL.
>> Adrienne: BUT FIRST, A GOOD
DEAL DRAWS A CROWD.
LINES LIKE THIS FORMED ACROSS
THE U.S., U.K. AND CANADA, ALL
FOR TEDDY BEARS.
>> AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN
LINE?
>> FOR LIKE 500 MILLION HOURS.
>> Adrienne: IN ADULT HOURS,
SHE'S NOT TOO FAR OFF.
ALL BECAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME
THE TOY TAX BUILD-A-BEAR IS
OFFERING PAY YOUR AGE PROMOTION.
WITH ACCESSORIES, A BEAR OR
UNICORN OR SOMETHING CALLED A
JIGGLY PUFF COULD RUN YOU MORE
THAN A HUNDRED BUCKS.
BUT AS LINES SNAKED AROUND THE
BLOCK IN NOVA SCOTIA, AND
CALIFORNIA, SAFETY CONCERNS
ULTIMATELY FORCED THE COMPANY TO
SHUT IT DOWN.
IT'S NOW OFF
GET A HANDLE ON THE SITUATION.
>> THAT WAS THE FATHER OF ALEX
SCHACHTER, ONE OF 17 PEOPLE
KILLED IN THE PARKLAND SCHOOL
SHOOTING.
THE MASS MURDER IS A SUBJECT OF
A STATE COMMISSION.
PARENTS, POLICE OFFICERS AND
LEGISLATORS ARE TALKING, HOPING
TO PREVENT SCHOOL SHOOTINGS.
THE PARKLAND TRAGEDY LEFT 17
PEOPLE DEAD AND 17 OTHERS
INJURED.
SINCE THEN, ONE DEBATE HAS
CENTRED ON WHETHER TEACHERS
SHOULD HAVE GUNS IN THE
CLASSROOM AND WHETHER THAT WOULD
SAVE LIVES.
NICK PURDON TOOK US INSIDE A
COURSE WITH A SPECIAL
CURRICULUM, ARMING TEACHERS.
>> CEASE-FIRE, CEASE-FIRE.
>> WHEN THAT KILLER IS IN THE
CLASSROOM, THE TEACHER CAN HAVE
A PENCIL OR A GUN.
>> I THINK I DID OK.
IT'S MY FIRST LIVE SHOOTER
SIMULATION.
SO HOPEFULLY NEXT TIME IT WILL
BE BETTER.
>> THOSE TEACHERS THAT WANT THAT
PROTECTION TO USE A FIREARM IN A
SCHOOL, WE PROVIDE THE TRAINING
AND CERTIFICATION FOR THEM TO DO
THAT.
>> Reporter: ONE OF THE MOST
VISCERAL REACTIONS TO THE
SHOOTING IN PARKLAND, FLORIDA,
WAS TO GIVE THE TEACHERS GUNS.
IT'S AN IDEA THAT DIVIDED THE
UNITED STATES.
I'VE COME TO TEXAS TO FOLLOW A
GROUP OF TEACHERS GETTING
TRAINED TO CARRY GUNS IN THEIR
CLASSROOMS.
AND THE QUESTION I HAVE IS A
VISCERAL ONE AS WELL, GUNS,
TEACHERS?
CAN THEY GO TOGETHER?
>> THE THREE QUESTIONS OF WHEN
YOU HAVE TO DECIDE ACCORDING TO
STATE LAW TO SHOOT, WHAT ARE
THEY?
DO I HAVE TO DO IT?
DO I HAVE TO DO IT NOW?
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO
OR I WILL DIE OR BE INJURED?
>> THIS IS BRIAN PROCTOR, A
POLICE OFFICERS FOR 20 YEARS.
NOW REETIRED, HE'S ONE OF THE
ONLY PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY
QUALIFIED TO TRAIN TEACHERS TO
DEFEND THEIR SCHOOLS WITH GUNS.
>> THERE ARE KILLERS IN THE
ENVIRONMENT.
THEY WILL FIND THE WEAKEST
PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO KILL, THE
ONES THAT ARE THE MOST
DEFENCELESS AND GO AFTER THEM.
IF YOU CALL 911, THE KILLING HAS
STARTED.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE SOMEONE THERE
TO MITIGATE THE DAMAGE.
>> Reporter: THESE ARE THE
VOLUNTEERS FOR THE JOB.
AMONG BRIAN'S STUDENTS, THERE IS
NORMAN RANGEL, A PRINCIPAL,
JERMAINE CHAMBERS, FOOTBALL
WHEELCHAIR, AND J.C. DAILY, A
LIBRARIAN.
EACH OF THEM IS LICENSED TO
CARRY A GUN, BUT TO CARRY AT
SCHOOL, THEY NEED TO PASS A
TRAINING AND GET PERMISSION FROM
THEIR SCHOOL BOARD.
FIRST, J.C. DALEY.
>> I BELIEVE IN THE SECOND
AMENDMENT.
I BELIEVE WE HAVE A RIGHT TO
DEFEND OURSELVES.
I BELIEVE IF SOMEONE IS
ATTACKING US, WE DON'T JUST SIT
AND HUDDLE, WE HAVE SKILLS AND
ARM POWER IN THE COUNTRY TO
DEFEND OURSELVES.
>> Reporter: IT WAS J.C.'S IDEA
TO TAKE THE COURSE.
SHE VOLUNTEERED AND PART OF HER
MOTIVATION IS SHE HAS TWO KIDS
OF HER OWN.
>> AS A PARENT, I WOULD BE -- I
WOULD AT LEAST WANT TO KNOW THAT
MY KIDS' TEACHER WAS CARRYING A
GUN.
>> QUESTIONS?
>> NO.
>> Reporter: NOW THE TEACHING
HERE IS DONE THROUGH PRETEND
SCENARIOS, WITH A KILLER TRYING
TO ENTER THE CLASSROOM.
>> THIS IS WHAT THEY'RE SHOOTING
TRAINING ROUNDS, ABOUT TEN TIMES
AS POWERFUL AS PAINT BALL
ROUNDS.
THEY SHOOT, THEY HURT.
THAT'S WHY PEOPLE ARE WEARING
THESE.
THESE.
NOW IT'S J.C.'S TURN.
>> QUESTIONS?
>> UM, NO.
>> GO, GO, GO!
[SCREAMING]
>> [CRYING] [DOOR OPENING]
[SCREAMING]
>> YOU EVER BEEN THAT STRESSED?
>> NO.
>> HOW IS YOUR HEART RATE?
>> IT'S REALLY HIGH, MY HANDS
ARE SHAKING, MY HEART IS
POUNDING.
I CAN -- MY VOICE IS SHAKING.
I CAN FEEL IT.
>> Reporter: AFTER SEEING HOW
SHAKEN J.C. IS, I WONDER HOW
REALISTIC IT IS TO HAVE TEACHERS
GO AFTER SHOOTERS.
>> THE GOAL IS NOT TO FIND AND
GO AFTER THE SHOOTER.
THE GOAL TOYS PROTECT THE KIDS,
IN THEIR CARE.
THEY'RE NOT TRAINED TO GO AFTER
THE KILLER.
>> LET'S SEE HOW OTHER TEACHERS
DO.
HERE'S JERMAINE'S SCENARIO.
>> I COACH FOOTBALL, THOSE ARE
MY SONS, THOSE ARE MY BOYS OUT
THERE.
IF SOMETHING COMES IN, I FEEL
IT'S MY JOB TO PROTECT THEM ALL.
>> HOW WAS THAT?
>> YEAH.
WOO.
SAW THE BIG GUN COME IN AND YOU
HAD TO PROTECT THEM, SHOOT, HEY.
AIM FOR THE DESK.
>> YOU CAN HAVE THAT OR YOU CAN
HAVE A PENCIL.
>> PENCIL?
WHAT'S A PENCIL GOING TO DO?
>> THAT'S WHAT PARKLAND FOUND
OUT, TOO.
>> Reporter: WHAT OCCURS TO ME
AND AS INCREDIBLE AS IT SOUNDS,
THE GOAL OF THE TRAINING IS FOR
THE TEACHERS TO CONTROL THE
ADRENALINE RUSH, THE FEAR, TO BE
COOL UNDER PRESSURE.
THE NEXT PART OF GETTING
TEACHERS READY HAPPENS HERE.
THEY HAVE TO SHOW THEY CAN SHOOT
ACCURATELY.
BUT CAN YOU EVER BE READY TO
FACE A GUNMAN?
>> DO YOU THINK THESE TEACHERS
ARE READY?
>> I THINK NOBODY IS READY FOR
THAT.
I DON'T THINK ANYBODY IS READY
FOR THAT.
I'VE BEEN IN COMBAT SITUATIONS,
I TELL YOU, I'M NEVER READY FOR
THAT.
BUT YOU HAVE TO REALIZE THERE IS
NO GREAT SOLUTION.
THERE IS JUST A BETTER RESPONSE.
>> Reporter: SO WHAT IS THE PLAN
HERE?
>> SO BASICALLY WHAT WE'RE GOING
TO DO, WE'RE GOING TO SET UP THE
TARGETS.
WE'RE GOING TO SHOOT 200 ROUNDS.
OUT OF THE 200 ROUNDS, I WANT TO
SEE A GOOD PERCENTAGE OF THEM ON
THE BAD GUY, NOT IN THE GOOD
KID.
>> Reporter: OR THEY FAIL.
>> OR THEY FAIL.
IF YOU CANNOT GET A GOOD SHOT,
DON'T PULL IT OFF.
I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE LEFT WITH
A AMMO IN THE GUN.
>> J.C. UNDERSTANDS FULL WELL
THAT TAKING HER GUN INTO A
SCHOOL IS CONTROVERSIAL.
>> A SCHOOL, IT'S TRADITIONALLY
A SAFE PLACE.
I MEAN, IT'S WHERE INNOCENCE IS.
IT'S OUR CHILDREN.
SO I THINK YOU HAVE A GREAT
POLARITY THERE BETWEEN A GUN,
WHICH IS SUCH A VISUAL IMAGE OF
VIOLENCE AND KILLING AND HATRED,
AND THEN INNOCENT CHILDREN.
TO ME, I FEEL LIKE IT'S MY JOB
TO PROTECT THAT INNOCENCE.
YOU KNOW, TO PROTECT THOSE KIDS
THAT ARE IN MY CARE.
>> LINE IS READY.
[SHOTS FIRED]
>> MAKE YOUR GUN SAFE.
OK, THIS IS HOW IT RUNS OUT.
ACCORDING TO THE DEPARTMENT OF
PUBLIC SAFETY, YOU PASSED THE
PROFICIENCY.
HOW DO YOU ALL FEEL?
>> I NEED MORE PRACTISE.
>> NOT SATISFIED.
>> IF YOU'RE NOT SATISFIED WITH
IT, I'M A HAPPY PERSON.
BECAUSE WHAT WOULD I BE
SATISFIED WITH IF I WAS THE ONE
SHOOTING THIS?
100%.
THAT'S WHAT I WOULD BE SATISFIED
FOR.
>> Reporter: WOW.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
>> WELL, IT'S NOT VERY GOOD.
WHEN I FIRST CAME UP AND LOOKED
AT IT, OF COURSE I LOOKED AT MY
MISSES, BUT NOT KNOWING WHAT
THOSE MEANT.
AND THEN I LOOKED AT THAT BABY
WITH ALL OF THE HOLES IN HIS
HEAD.
I MEAN, I OBVIOUSLY DID SOME
DAMAGE TO THAT GUY, TOO, BUT --
I NEED SOME PRACTISE.
>> Reporter: DOES IT MAKE IT
REAL?
DOES IT MAKE IT MORE REAL
LOOKING AT THAT, THE KID AND THE
HOLES?
>> WELL, YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.
ABSOLUTELY.
I HAVE 7-YEAR-OLD BOYS, SO
THEY'RE ABOUT THAT SIZE.
FOR SURE.
IT JUST MADE IT REAL.
IT'S A BIG RESPONSIBILITY.
IT'S A BIG RESPONSIBILITY.
>> Ian: WE CAN TELL YOU THAT ONE
TEACHER IN NICK'S DOCUMENTARY
GOT SCHOOL BOARD APPROVAL AND
WILL CARRY A FIREARM IN THEIR
SCHOOL THIS FALL.
AND BRIAN PROCTOR TELLS US THE
DEMAND IN TEXAS HAS ACCELERATED
IN SPRING WHEN WE BROUGHT YOU
THE STORY.
HE SAID HE'S WORKING WITH 10 NEW
SCHOOL DISTRICTS THIS SUMMER TO
TRAIN AND CERTIFY THEIR
EMPLOYEES.
>> Adrienne: STILL TO COME ON
"THE NATIONAL", HOW AN
UNEXPECTED BIRTH IN THE MIDDLE
OF A GATINEAU SIDEWALK BROUGHT A
WHOLE NEIGHBOURHOOD TOGETHER.
>> THE ONLY THING IN COMMON IS
WE LIVE ON THE SAME STREET.
I WOULD SAY HI ONCE IN A WHILE.
BUT THAT'S THE POINT.
IT WAS LIKE A BIG FAMILY.
>> Ian: FIRST, IT'S A NEW ERA
FOR THE EMMYS.
FOR THE FIRST TIME, A STREAMING
SERVICE HAS RECEIVED MORE
NOMINATIONS THAN TV NETWORKS.
>> WHAT IS IT THAT YOU WOULD
HAVE ME CHANGE?
>> EVERYTHING.
>> Ian: MAKE THAT 112
NOMINATIONS FOR NETFLIX, ENDING
HBO'S 17-YEAR STREAK AS THE
LEADING NETWORK.
THAT'S THANKS TO THE CROWN AND
STRANGER THINGS.
>> MY NAME IS JUNE.
>> Ian: HULU'S HANDMADE TALE GOT
20 NOMINATIONS.
AND THEN THERE IS THE MARVELOUS
MRS. MAZEL.
STILL, "GAME OF THRONES" TOPPED
THE LIST.
>> I DON'T COME TO CONQUER THE
NORTH, I'M COMING TO SAVE IT.
>> Ian: 22 THIS TIME AROUND.
WE SHOULD MENTION THE CANADIAN
NOMINEES.
>> I'M GOING TO FIND THE THING
YOU CARE ABOUT AND I'M GOING TO
KILL IT.
>> Ian: SANDRA OH MAKING HISTORY
AS THE FIRST WOMAN OF ASIAN
HERITAGE NOMINATED FOR LEAD
ACTRESS IN HER ROLE IN BBC
AMERICA KILLING EVE TT.
IN A STATEMENT, OH WROTE SHE
FEELS TREMENDOUS GRATITUDE AND
JOY WITH THE NOMINATION, ADDING
P.S., THINK MY MOTHER AT THE
MOMENT MAY ACTUALLY BE
SATISFIED.
CANADIAN TATIANA MASLANY WAS
ALSO NOMINATED.
THE
>> Real women.
Real life unsolved mysteries.
Eight stories of missing and
murdered Indigenous women and
girls, and someone has answers.
A true crime series.
Taken, season two,
Friday at 9:00 on CBC.
>> Adrienne: SO HE IS NEW TO THE
WORLD BUT GEORGE SURE KNOWS HOW
TO MAKE AN ENTRANCE.
BORN A COUPLE WEEKS EARLY IN AN
MOST DRAMATIC FASHION.
IS LAST WEEK HIS MOM STARTED
FEELING UNCOMFORTABLE.
SHE HAD A TOUGH PREGNANCY AND
THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE FALSE
LABOUR, BUT IT WAS BAD ENOUGH
THAT SHE CALLED HER HUSBAND TO
TAKE HER TO THE HOSPITAL ONLY
SHE DID NOT MAKE IT THAT FAR.
WHAT HAPPENED NEXT IS OUR
"MOMENT OF THE DAY."
>> MY WIFE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE
STAIRS SHE STARTED YELLING AND
SCREAMING.
I WAS LIKE OH MY GOD, WHAT'S
GOING ON.
SHE SAID I FEEL SOMETHING IS
COMING OUT.
I WAS LIKE OH AND I STARTED
CALLING THE NEIGHBOUR.
I NEED HELP, HELP.
>> THEY WERE TELLING US OH I
HAVE TO SIT DOWN.
I HUGGED MY HUSBAND SO HE CAN
HELP ME SIT DOWN.
>> I HEARD BEEP.
I LOOKED DOWN AND I SAW
SOMETHING ON THE FLOOR.
>> HE WAS YELLOW.
IN MY HEAD I THOUGHT HE WAS
DEAD.
I TOLD MY HUSBAND, OH MY GOD HE
IS DEAD AND I PASSED OUTSIDE.
>> THANKS TO THE PARAMEDICS AND
THE FIREFIGHTERS WHO CAME WITHIN
FIVE MINUTES.
WHEN THEY FIRST CAME, THEY
REASSURED US.
IT WAS ALL THAT COMMUNITY.
EVERYBODY CAME UP TOGETHER.
ALL THE NEIGHBOURS CAME OUT.
EVERYBODY WANTED TO HELP.
EVERYBODY FELT THEY WERE PART OF
WHAT WAS GOING ON.
AT THAT SPECIFIC POINT, THERE
WERE NO IMMIGRATION, WHERE YOU
COME FROM, BLACK, WHITE.
IT WAS JUST HUMAN BEINGS TRYING
TO HELP ANOTHER HUMAN BEING.
>> Ian: NOT TO DIMINISH WHAT HE
JUST SAID, I LOVE THAT
WAS.
>> PEOPLE STARTED TELLING EACH
OTHER WHAT TO DO AND THEY ALL
KNOW EACH OTHER WELL NOW AND
THAT BABY HAS A WHOLE NEW
COMMUNITY AROUND HIM.
>> THAT POLICE OFFICER
APPARENTLY WAS ON THE PHONE TO
9-1-1 AND RELAYED THE
INSTRUCTIONS TO THE DAD AND THE
DAD SAID THE POLICE OFFICER JUST
CALMED HIM DOWN.
I'VE BEEN THROUGH A COUPLE OF
BIRTH AS A PASSENGER OBVIOUSLY,
JUST YOU KNOW, IN THE DELIVERY
ROOM WATCHING.
THAT WAS HARD ENOUGH.
I CAN'T IMAGINE HAVING TO PLAY
THE ROLE THAT HE HAD TO PLAY
AFTER HIS WIFE PASSED OUT.
ANYWAY.
THAT IS "THE NATIONAL" FOR
JULY 12TH.
GOOD NIGHT.
