>> Andrew: ON THIS FRIDAY
NIGHT, KEEPING WATCH ON A
DANGEROUS TRIPLE THREAT IN
BRITISH COLUMBIA.
FIRE, SMOKE AND WIND.
WE'LL TAKE YOU TO THE HOTTEST
SPOTS ACROSS THE PROVINCE DOTTED DOTTED
WITH EVACUATION ORDERS AND
ALERTS.
EVEN PEOPLE AS FAR AWAY AS
ONTARIO MIGHT FEEL THE EFFECTS.
>> ALSO TONIGHT THE FASHION
INDUSTRY'S MOST IMPORTANT MONTH
FEATURES AN UNPRECEDENTED LOOK.
BLACK WOMEN SEIZE THE POWER OF
THE SEPTEMBER COVERS, SMASHING
MYTHS ABOUT WHO CAN SELL AND
PUSHING DIVERSITY AS MORE THAN
JUST A SLOGAN.
>>> THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
(*)
(*)
>>> THE FIRES ARE INSATIABLE,
THE SMOKE SEEMS DETERMINED TO
CHOKE HALF THE COUNTRY, AND
THINGS COULD GO FROM BAD TO
WORSE AS HUGE PARTS OF BRITISH
COLUMBIA CONTINUE TO BURN.
SO FAR THE FLAMES HAVE CONSUMED
MORE THAN 435,000 HECTARES OF
FOREST.
TO GIVE YOU A SENSE OF HOW BIG
THAT IS, THAT IS ALMOST THE SIZE
OF THE ENTIRE METRO VANCOUVER
REGION DOUBLED.
THERE ARE MORE THAN 500 FIRES
BURNING ACROSS THE PROVINCE
RIGHT NOW.
THE BIGGEST IS THE SHOVEL LAKE
FIRE.
IT'S BURNING A COUPLE HOURS WEST
OF PRINCE GEORGE.
AND PRINCE GEORGE ITSELF IS
WHERE SO MANY EVACUEES ARE
GOING.
IT'S TAKEN IN ABOUT 1,300 PEOPLE
SO FAR AND THERE MAY BE MORE TO
COME.
HISTORIC FORT ST. JAMES IS THE
LATEST NEARBY COMMUNITY UNDER
THREAT BUT FIRES ARE FORCING
PEOPLE FROM THEIR HOMES ALL OVER
THE PROVINCE.
JUST LAST NIGHT THERE WAS A NEW
EVACUATION ORDER FOR PEOPLE JUST
OUTSIDE OF THE CITY OF KIMBERLEY
IN THE PROVINCE'S SOUTHEAST.
AND FOLKS WITHIN THE CITY ITSELF
ARE ON ALERT, BAGS PACKED.
SO WHAT'S IT LIKE TO BE LIVING
IN ONE OF THOSE FIRE ZONES?
ANITA BATHE TAKES US THERE.
>> Reporter: AS IF THE
WILDFIRE DANGER HASN'T FELT REAL
ENOUGH PEOPLE IN PRINCE GEORGE
WOKE UP TO DARK SKIES.
>> IT'S PITCH BLACK.
IS THAT NIGHT?
>> Reporter: THIS IS 8:40
a.m. AS THE WIND CARRIED IN THE
SMOKE.
20 MINUTES LATER IT'S LIKE THE
SUN GOES DOWN INSTEAD OF UP.
10 MINUTES AFTER THAT, YOU'D
THINK THAT IT'S THE MIDDLE OF
THE NIGHT.
AND THEN ABOUT AN HOUR AND A
HALF LATER DAYLIGHT RETURNS.
>> IT'S SO DARK AND IT'S JUST
THIS OMINOUS DARK CLOUD HANGING
OVER THE COMMUNITY.
IT WAS JUST UNBELIEVABLE.
>> Reporter: IT'S IN PART DUE
TO THE MASSIVE SHOVEL LAKE
WILDFIRE BURNING TO THE WEST.
>> SOME OF THE WIND IN THE PAST
FEW DAYS HAS WHIPPED UP PRETTY
GOOD AND YOU COULD JUST IMAGINE
HOW FAST THE FIRES TRAVEL IN THE
WIND.
>> Reporter: ON THE EDGE OF
THAT FIRE IS FORT ST. JAMES.
THE ENTIRE TOWN COULD BE FORCED
TO LEAVE.
IT'S MINUTE-BY-MINUTE AND
SUPPLIES ARE RUNNING OUT.
>> WE ARE OUT OF SPRINKLERS.
AND WE ARE LOW ON 20 LITRE, I
HAVE ONE LEFT OF THE 20-LITRE
JERRY CANS.
AND BASICALLY BATTERIES.
>> Reporter: EVEN THOUGH THE
FLAMES ARE CREEPING UP, HE IS
NOT WORRIED.
>> STUCCO SIDING AND HAVE WATER
AROUND ME AND I HAVE FIRE PUMPS
AND I HAVE MY GENERATOR HOOKED
UP.
>> Reporter: THE FORT
ST. JAMES RESIDENT SAID IF THE
EVACUATION ALERT TURNS INTO AN
ORDER HE'S NOT LEAVING.
>> IF IT COMES SO FAST THAT WE
CAN'T GET OUT OF HERE, THIS IS
ALL REPLACEABLE.
I HAVE AN ALUMINUM BOAT AND TWO
OARS.
>> Reporter: IN AND AROUND
KIMBERLEY ASH FROM THE MEECHAN
FIRE FALLS FROM THE SKY.
AS OF THIS MORNING ALMOST 8,000
PEOPLE ARE ON ALERT.
>> A BIT ON THE ANXIOUS SIDE AND
WE PACK BODY FIVE DAYS AGO.
WE HAVE A COUPLE SUITCASES BACK
HERE AND A COUPLE MORE IN THE
HOUSE BEING PACKED.
>> Reporter: WITH NEARLY 600
FIRES BURNING ACROSS THE
PROVINCE IT'S LIKELY THAT
RESIDENTS STILL HAVE WEEKS OF
UNCERTAINTY AHEAD.
ANITA BATHE, CBC NEWS,
VANCOUVER.
>> Andrew: NOW WE HAVE ALL
SEEN PICTURES AND VIDEO OF THE
FIRES BUT WHAT IT'S LIKE TO FACE
ONE?
WELL, JAMES STUMP IS A LOGGER
WHO WAS WORKING CLOSE TO THE
MASSIVE SHOVEL LAKE FIRE WHEN HE
BECAME A WITNESS TO ITS
DESTRUCTIVE POWER.
>> THE WIND WAS COMING AT US AND
WE'D BE SCREWED.
>> IT WAS KIND OF SURREAL
BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO
HAVE CAMPFIRES AND IT'S LIKE A
GIANT CAMPFIRE ALL AROUND US.
YOU GET FLARE-UPS UP THE TREES
AND THEN IT WOULD CANDLE ON THE
TOP AND IT WOULD SOUND LIKE A
FREIGHT TRAIN.
AND THE HEAT WOULD GET VERY
INTENSE.
AND I WAS AT THE VERY EDGE OF
THE LEADING EDGE OF THE EASTERN
PORTION OF THAT SHOVEL LAKE
FIRE.
AND WHERE IT WAS THE WIND HAD
CHANGED DIRECTION AND IT WAS
ACTUALLY BLOWING ITSELF BACK
INTO WHAT IT HAD ALREADY BURNT.
YOU KNOW THAT IT'S HARD ON THE
LUNGS.
I HAVE SEEN THAT FIRE TRAVEL 13
KILOMETRES WATCHING IT ON THE
MAP.
IN ONE DAY IT TRAVELLED 13
KILOMETRES.
IT GETS HEAVY WIND AND IT WILL
WIPE OUT A LOT OF PEOPLE'S
PROPERTIES BACK THERE.
>> Andrew: PRETTY FRIGHTENING
PICTURE HE PAINTS.
IT'S NOT JUST THE FLAMES THAT
ARE MAKING PEOPLE AFRAID.
THE OVERWHELMING CLOUDS OF SMOKE
ARE GIGANTIC, INCREASINGLY
DANGEROUS, AND CONSTANTLY ON THE
MOVE.
>> EVEN MY DOG, HE DOESN'T WANT
TO COME OUT.
>> Andrew: SMART DOG.
THE FOREST FIRE IS FULL OF TOXIC
PARTICULATE MATTER CALLED BLACK
CARBON THAT CAN BE REALLY BAD
FOR YOU, DEADLY EVEN WITH TOO
MUCH EXPOSURE.
LOOK HOW MUCH IS OVER WESTERN
CANADA.
IT'S NOT JUST BRITISH COLUMBIANS
AT RISK, THE SMOKE HAS BLANKETED
VAST PARTS OF ALBERTA.
IT'S A PRETTY EERIE EFFECT.
THIS VIDEO IS FROM EDMONTON,
TAKEN A COUPLE DAYS AGO AT 10:00
IN THE MORNING.
KIND OF LOOKS LIKE A SCENE FROM
A "TERMINATOR" MOVIE, THE END OF
THE WORLD.
AND CALGARY TOO HAS STRUGGLED IN
THE DARK.
SO WHERE'S THAT HAZE GOING NOW?
WELL, BLUE SKY CANADA IS A
COLLABORATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN
B.C. AND ALBERTA THAT TRACKS ALL
OF THIS.
ITS SMOKE FORECAST POINTS EAST,
AS FAR AS ONTARIO.
THOUSANDS OF KILOMETRES AWAY.
BUT PERHAPS THE BEST PERSPECTIVE
IS FROM WAY UP.
ALL OF THAT SMOKE IS CLEARLY
VISIBLE FROM SPACE.
IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS CLOUD
COVER YOU CAN SEE IT, A LARGE
GREY MASS ALWAYS MOVING.
IN A SENSE THE SMOKE IS BECOMING
ITS OWN KIND OF WEATHER.
AND CBC NEWS METEROLOGIST
JOHANNA WAGSTAFFE IS NOW
EXPERIENCING THAT FIRSTHAND.
SHE DROVE THROUGH THAT SMOKE ON
HER WAY BACK TO VANCOUVER FROM
100-MILE HOUSE TODAY AND SHE
TOOK A MOMENT TO PULL OVER AND
TELL US WHAT THAT WAS LIKE...
>> Reporter: HERE IN HOPE, THE
VISIONIBILITY HAS IMPROVED
SOMEWHAT TODAY.
BUT IF YOU LOOK OFF TO THE
DISTANCE DOWN THE FRASER CANYON
THE MOUNTAIN IS STILL SHROUDED
IN SMOKE.
AND BACK TOWARDS THE 100-MILE
HOUSE WHERE I DROVE DOWN THIS
MORNING, VISIONIBILITY WAS AT VISIBILITY W AS LESS
THAN A FEW HUNDRED MOTORS I METRES ALL
THE WAY TO THE FRASER CANYON.
THAT'S WHERE WE'RE GETTING WINDS
HELPING TO MIX THINGS OUT.
THE SMOKE THOUGH IN THE
COMMUNITY ACTUALLY IS HELPING TO
INHIBIT THE TEMPERATURES AND
THAT AT LEAST MEANS WE'RE NOT
GETTING THE THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPING IN THE AFTERNOON,
WHICH IS GOOD NEWS.
BUT THIS GENERAL WEST-TO-EAST
FLOW IS ADVANCING SOME FIRES
EASTWARD.
HIGH PRESSURE FOR THE REST OF
THE WEEK MEANS HOT, DRY AND
SMOKY.
JOHANNA WAGSTAFFE, CBC NEWS,
HOPE FLAG.
>> Andrew: TOUGH CONDITIONS NO
MATTER HOW YOU SLICE IT.
>>> OKAY, HERE'S WHAT ELSE WE'RE
WORKING ON TONIGHT ON "THE
NATIONAL"...
>> CAN EXTREME CARB-FREE DIETING
TAKE YEARS OFF YOUR LIFE?
IF YOU HAVE EVER GONE ATKINS OR
SOUTH BEACH OR ANYTHING SIMILAR,
CHRISTINE BIRAK WILL HAVE
DETAILS OF A NEW STUDY YOU WON'T
WANT TO MISS.
>>> PLUS, A MOMENT THAT SOME
HOPE TO SPARK A MOVEMENT.
BLACK WOMEN WILL BE FRONT AND
CENTRE THIS COMING SEPTEMBER ON
MAGAZINE COVERS EVERYWHERE.
>>> BUT, FIRST, IT'S BEEN A WEEK
SINCE THE DEADLY SHOOTING IN
FREDERICTON TOOK FOUR LIVES AND
TONIGHT WE'RE LEARNING PORE
ABOUT THE MAN WHO WAS -- MORE
ABOUT THE MAN WHO WAS ARRESTED.
WE HAVE NEW DETAILS ABOUT WHAT
HAPPENED THAT DAY.
KAYLA HOUNSELL IS FOLLOWING THIS
STORY FOR US IN FREDERICTON AND
SHE'S JOINING US NOW.
SO, KAYLA LET'S START WITH THE
SUSPECT.
WHAT MORE DO WE KNOW ABOUT HIM?
>> Reporter: WELL, ANDREW, OUR
COLLEAGUES AT CBC NEW CBC NEW BRUNSWICK
WAS USING THE NAME OF COLT-C8,
THAT'S A NAME OF A MILITARY CAR
BOIN.
ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO WHEN THREE
RCMP OFFICERS WERE SHOT AND
KILLED IN MONCTON HE TWEETED
BACK THAT SOMEBODY SAID THAT THE
NAME SHOULD NOT BE ON TWITTER.
AND HE AGREED.
AND WE FOUND AN ACCOUNT ON AN
OPLINE PLATFORM FOR PURCHASING
DIGITAL VIDEO GAMES THAT SHOWS
THAT HE PLAYED AT LEAST 479
HOURS OF A FIRST-PERSON SHOOTER
GAME OVER ABOUT FIVE YEARS.
NOW THAT SAME ACCOUNT STATES
THAT AS OF APRIL 17th HE HAS
BEEN OFFLINE WHICH IS AROUND THE
SAME TIME THAT HE REPORTEDLY
MOVED OUT OF HIS MOTHER'S HOME
AND INTO THIS APARTMENT COMPLEX
BEHIND ME WHICH IS WHERE THE
DEADLY ATTACK TOOK PLACE.
>> Andrew: KAYLA, WE'RE ALSO
LEARNING ABOUT HOW THIS TRAGEDY
UNFOLDED FROM THE COURT
DOCUMENTS.
CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT?
>> Reporter: THESE COURT
DOCUMENTS WERE OBTAINED BY THE
CBC FROM THE FREDERICTON
PROVINCIAL COURTHOUSE AND THEN
PLACED UNDER A PU PUBLICATION BAN.
SO THE CBC WENT TO COURT ALONG
WITH OTHER MEDIA OUTLETS AND
ARGUED AGAINST THAT.
TODAY A NEW BRUNSWICK JUDGE
LIFTED THAT ORDER AND GIVING US
A MUCH MORE DETAILED TIMELINE OF
HOW THIS TRAGEDY UNFOLDED.
CONSTABLGS ROBB COSTELLO AND
SARA BURNS WERE THE FIRST TO
RESPOND AND THEY'RE FOLLOWED BY
CONSTABLE JASON FORWARD WHO
STOPPED BRIEFLY TO ASK A
PASSERBY SOME QUESTIONS.
COSTELLO AND BURNS WENT INTO A
DRIVEWAY BY BUILDING C WHERE THE
SUSPECT LEAVE.
WHEN FORWARD HEARD THE GUNSHOTS
HE ROUNDED THE CORNER AND SAW
COSTELLO AND BURNS LYING
MOTIONLESS ON THE GROUND.
ANOTHER MAN, DONNIE ROBICHAUD,
WAS LYING NEARBY.
THE GUNFIRE WAS COMING FROM THE
TOP FLOOR SO FORWARD AND ANOTHER
OFFICER HEADED THERE.
JOY SULLIVAN LIVES ON THE TOP
FLOOR.
>> KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK, I RAN
AND LOOKED THROUGH MY PEEPHOLE
AND I SAW TWO MEN ON THEIR KNEES
WITH A GUN TOWARD TOWARDS DOOR 11.
WHEN I RAN TO GET DRESSED AND
WHEN I WAS IN THERE THE DOOR WAS
BUSTED OPEN BY A POLICEMAN.
>> Reporter: THE LONG GUN WAS
POINTED OUT THE WINDOW AND SHOT
AT HIM.
HE'S HIT IN THE STOMACH.
>> THESE TWO GUYS GET UP OFF ONE
KNEE AND NEVER TURN AWAY FROM
DOOR 11, AND THE GUN RIGHT ON
THEM AND I'M READY TO BE WITH
THE OTHER POLICEMAN ESCORTED OUT
AND THEY WENT TROT, TROT, TROT,
BACKWARDS, THE TWO OF THEM WITH
THEIR SHOULDERS TOGETHER TO
PROTECT ME.
AND THEY NEVER TURNED THEIR HEAD
AROUND AND I COULD SEE FROM THE
LITTLE BIT ON THE SIDE, AND THEY
TROT, TROT, TROT, THE TWO OF
THEM SIDEWAYS WHILE I'M BENT
OVER AND THE OTHER COP IS
HOLDING THAT DOOR OPEN AND
REGISTERED, THERE'S A SENIOR
COMING DOWN, AND THAT'S HOW THEY
PROTECTED ME GOING OUT.
>> Reporter: MATTHEW RAYMOND
WAS ARRESTED JUST AFTER 9:30.
HE WAS TAKEN TO HOSPITAL WITH
SERIOUS INJURIES.
>> Andrew: WOW, SO, KAYLA,
LOOKING FORWARD THERE'S BIG
PREPARATIONS AHEAD OF A
REGIMENTAL FUNERAL FOR THE
OFFICERS.
CAN YOU TELL US WHAT IS GOING TO
HAPPEN TOMORROW?
>> Reporter: ANDREW, THOUSANDS
OF EMERGENCY RESPONDERS FROM
ACROSS NORTH AMERICA ARE
EXPECTED TO ATTEND THIS
REGIMENTAL FUNERAL.
IT WILL NOT BE OPEN TO THE
PUBLIC BECAUSE THE ARENA WHERE
IT IS TO BE HELD CAN ONLY HOLD
AROUND 4,300 PEOPLE SO
ORGANIZERS SAY, OF COURSE, THE
PRIORITY IS THE FAMILIES OF THE
FALLEN OFFICERS AS WELL AS THE
FREDERICTON POLICE FORCE AND
OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL.
THEY'RE ARRIVING AT THE AIRPORT
TODAY AND LOCAL RESIDENTS ARE
SHOWING UP TO OFFER THEM RIDES
ANYWHERE THEY WANTED TO GO.
>> THERE'S SO MANY PEOPLE THAT
WANT TO HELP.
THOSE THAT HAVE A CONNECTION TO
THE TWO FALLEN OFFICERS AND
THOSE THAT HAVE JUST THE
CONNECTION TO THE CITY.
SO IT'S ONE OF THESE THINGS THAT
JUST SNOWBALLS SO WE DO WHAT
EVERYONE DOES IN 2018, YOU PUT
IT OUT ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND SEE
WHAT HAPPENED.
AND IT'S FLOOD GATES JUST OPENED
UP, ALMOST IMMEDIATELY.
>> Reporter: SO CERTAINLY AN
ENTIRE CITY IS GRIEVING HERE IN
FREDERICTON, ANDREW, AND
FREDERICTON POLICE SAY THEY WANT
PEOPLE TO HELP TO CELEBRATE THE
LIVES OF THEIR OFFICERS.
SO THERE WILL BE PUBLIC VIEWING
AREAS.
AND THEY'RE ALSO INVITING PEOPLE
TO LINE THE PARADE ROUTE FOR THE
PROCESSION TOMORROW AS OFFICERS
ARE TAKEN TO THE ARENA.
>> Andrew: KAYLA HOUNSELL IN
FREDERICTON, THANK YOU FOR THIS.
>>> CBC NEWS WILL BROADCAST
TOMORROW'S FUNERAL PROCESSION
AND SERVICE FROM NOON TO ABOUT
2:00 p.m..
THAT'S ON BOTH CBC NEWS NETWORK
AND THE MAIN NETWORK AND THERE
WILL ALSO BE COVERAGE ON CBC
RADIO AND ONLINE AT
CBCNEWS.CA, AND ON FACEBOOK,
TWITTER AND YouTube.
>>> SOME OF THE OTHER STORIES
THAT WE'RE TRACKING LIVE TONIGHT
INCLUDE SECURITY CONCERNS AT THE
TRIAL OF PRESIDENT DONALD
TRUMP'S FORMER CAMPAIGN CHAIR,
PAUL MANAFORT.
THE JUDGE ASSIGNED TO THE CASE
SAYS THAT HE'S RECEIVED THREATS.
THEY STEPPED UP SECURITY AT THE
VIRGINIA COURTROOM TODAY AS THE
JURORS DELIBERATED FOR A SECOND
DAY.
THE JUDGE IS NOW UNDER THE
PROTECTION OF U.S. MARSHALS AND
HE SAYS THAT HE WON'T RELEASE
JURORS' NAMES TO THE PUBLIC AS
HE FEARS FOR THEIR SAFETY TOO.
MANAFORT IS FACING 18 CHARGES
INCLUDING BANK AND TAX FRAUD.
JURY DELIBERATIONS RESUME ON
MONDAY.
>>> JUST OVER A WEEK AFTER PARTS
OF TORONTO WERE SUBMERGED IN
FLOODWATER TODAY IT HAPPENED
AGAIN.
THIS WAS THE SCENE INSIDE OF
UNION STATION AFTER A HEAVY
DOWNPOUR SENT WATER GUSHING FROM
THE CEILING.
ENVIRONMENT CANADA HAD ISSUED A
WARNING FOR THE AREA SAYING THAT
SOME PARTS COULD SEE MORE THAN
50 mm OF RAIN.
>>> AND A SELF-DESCRIBED
ANTI-COLONIAL GROUP IS CLAIMING
RESPONSIBILITY TONIGHT FOR
DEFACING A STATUE OF SIR JOHN A.
MacDONALD IN MONTREAL.
IT'S THE THIRD TIME THAT THE
STATUE HAS BEEN VANDALIDESSED
AND IT COMES AS THE DEBATE
CONTINUES ON HOW TO MARK
MacDONALD'S LEGACY GIVEN HIS
ROLE IN CREATING CANADA'S
RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL SYSTEM.
THE GROUP BEHIND THE SPRAY
PAINTING SAY THEY WANT THE
STATUE GONE.
>>> WELL, IN THE WORLD OF
FASHION THE SEPTEMBER ISSUE SETS
THE TONE.
HERE'S SOME OF LAST YEAR'S, THEY
HAVE MARKED THE BEGINNING OF A
NEW SEASON.
IT'S A CHANCE FOR DESIGNERS TO
UNVEIL THEIR LATEST COLLECTIONS.
THOSE WHO GRACE THE COVERS ARE
ELEVATED TO STYLE ICON, BUT
LOOKING AT ALL OF THESE IN 2017,
AT LEAST ONE THING REALLY STANDS
OUT -- THEY'RE ALMOST ALL WHITE
WOMEN.
BUT NOT THIS YEAR.
BLACK WOMEN AREDO DOMINATING THE
SEPTEMBER ISSUES AS OF THE MOST
SOUGHT AFTER ACTRESSES,
COMEDIANS AND MUSICIANS AND
MODELS.
AS TASHAUNA REID SHOWS US THEY
MAY BE THE PUBLISHING INDUSTRY'S
BEST HOPE OF KEEPING FASHION
MAGAZINES AFLOAT.
(*)
>> Reporter: SHE'S THE FACE OF
SEPTEMBER, BEYONCÉ FOR "VOGUE"
MAGAZINE.
THE STAR IS GIVEN FULL CREATIVE
CONTROL AND IT'S THE FIRST
"VOGUE" TO BE SHOT BY AN AFRICAN
AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHER.
THEN THERE'S RIHANNA, TO BE ON
BRITISH "VOGUE'S" SEPTEMBER
COVER.
IN THE 102-YEAR HISTORY OF
"VOGUE."
>> I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
I DIDN'T EXPECT TO BE MISS
SEPTEMBER.
>> Reporter: TIFFANY AND
TRACEE, THE LIST GOES ON.
THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER ISSUE HAS
PROMINENT AND INFLUENTIAL BLACK
WOMEN.
IN HER OWN COVER STORY BEYONCÉ
RECOUNTS THE LONG JOURNEY THAT
IT TOOK TO GET HERE.
"WHEN I FIRST STARTED 21 YEARS
AGO I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS HARD
FOR ME TO GET ON COVERS OF
MAGAZINES BECAUSE BLACK PEOPLE
DID NOT SELL.
CLEARLY THAT HAS BEEN PROVEN A
MYTH."
>> I THINK THAT THE MAGAZINE
INDUSTRY...
>> Reporter: MARKETING
ANALYSTS SAY THAT MAGAZINES HAVE
TO EVOLVE OR TO GET LEFT BEHIND.
>> IT USED TO BE THAT WHITE
WOMEN WITH BLONDE HAIR AND BLUE
EYES WERE SEEN TO SELL MORE
MAGAZINES.
THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT
FROM A CULTURAL STANDPOINT, I
BELIEVE THAT THESE AFRICAN
AMERICAN WOMEN ARE THE WOMEN WHO
ARE MOVERS AND SHAKERS IN
DRIVING CULTURE ACROSS THE
WORLD.
>> IT'S JUST A REALLY
SERENDIPITOUS MOMENT HAPPENING
RIGHT NOW AND WE'RE SO THRILLED
TO BE PART OF WHAT FEELS LIKE A
CELEBRATION.
>> YEAH, THIS IS ONE OF MY
FAVOURITE...
>> Reporter: AT THE OFFICES OF
"ELLE" CANADA, IT'S TRACEE ELLIS
ROSS ON FULL DISPLAY.
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF SAYS THAT IT WAS
A NO-BRAINER.
>> FIRST OF ALL TRACEE IS SO
SAVVY ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND AN
ACTIVIST AND AN INCREDIBLE STYLE
ICON.
SO SHE'S ALREADY AN "ELLE" GIRL.
>> Reporter: THAT ASIDE
DIVERSITY SELLS.
OF "ELLE" ISSUES, HALF ARE WOMEN
OF COLOUR.
>> WE PUT A SOUTH ASIAN WOMEN ON
OUR MAY COVER AND SHE SOLD 20%
MORE THAN THE YEAR BEFORE.
SO IT'S ABOUT GIVING THE
OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE DIFFERENT
STORIES AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
>> Reporter: BUT IT'S ALSO
ABOUT AN INDUSTRY FIGHTING TO
STAY RELEVANT.
AS THE INTERNET GOBBLES UP
ADVERTISING DOLLARS, MAGAZINES
ARE FEELING IT.
ISSUES ARE GETTING SKINNIER AND
PUBLISHERS ARE FORCED TO SELL
TITLES THAT WERE ONCE MAINSTAYS
ON NEWSSTANDS.
>> I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY PRINT
EDITIONS YOU'LL SEE IN 10 YEARS.
I THINK THAT IT WILL GO LARGELY
DIGITAL.
BUT I STILL BELIEVE IN BRANDS.
I BELIEVE IN THE HEALTH OF
BRANDS.
AND ALSO I THINK THAT, YOU KNOW,
UNIQUE PERSPECTIVES NO MATTER
WHERE THEY COME FROM, ARE GOING
TO WIN NO MATTER WHAT.
>> Reporter: CANADIAN MODEL
LANA OGILVIE HAS BEEN HAD OR
SHARE OF COVERS.
SHE WAS THE FIRST BLACK WOMAN TO
SIGN A CONTRACT WITH "COVER
GIRL" AND SAYS THAT IT'S
OBVIOUS, MAGAZINES NEED TO
REFLECT THE WORLD THAT WE LIVE
IN.
>> DO I THINK THAT IT WILL HELP
THEM TO SELL MAGAZINES?
ABSOLUTELY.
THE WORLD IS CHANGING.
MAGAZINE COMPANIES NEED TO WAKE
UP AND SEE THAT, THAT, YOU KNOW,
IT'S A DIVERSE COUNTRY THAT WE
LIVE IN.
AND IF YOU WANT TO SELL, YOU
NEED TO REPRESENT THE PEOPLE WHO
YOU WANT TO BUY YOUR PRODUCT.
>> Reporter: WHILE THIS
SEPTEMBER REPRESENTS CHANGE, A
BIG QUESTION, WILL THAT CHANGE
CONTINUE IN THE MONTHS AND THE
ISSUES AHEAD.
TASHAUNA REID, CBC NEWS,
TORONTO.
>> Andrew: AS TASHAUNA
MENTIONED THIS "VOGUE" COVER IS
ESPECIALLY REMARKABLE NOT
BECAUSE BEYONCÉ HAD FREE REIN TO
DO WHAT SHE WANTED BUT BECAUSE
OF WHO SHE TRUSTED TO BE BEHIND
THE LENS.
23-YEAR-OLD TYLER MITCHELL,
FRESH OUT OF SCHOOL, IS THE
FIRST BLACK PHOTOGRAPHER TO
SHOOT A COVER FOR "VOGUE" BUT
HE'S NO AMATEUR HAVING SHOT FOR
MARC JACOBS AND CONVERSE.
HE WORKED WITH PARK LAN SCHOOL
SURVIVORS FOR "TEEN VOGUE."
SO WHEN THEY HAD WORD THAT
BEYONCÉ WANTED A BRAKE
PHOTOGRAPHER THEY SUGGESTED
MITCHELL AND BEYONCÉ WAS RIGHT
ONBOARD.
IT'S IMPORTANT TO HELP TO OPEN
UP DOORS FOR YOUNGER ARTISTS,
SHE WRITES IN THE MAGAZINE.
THERE'S SO MANY CULTURAL AND
SOCIETAL BARRIERS TO ENTER THAT
I LIKE TO DO WHAT I CAN TO LEVEL
THE PLAYING FIELD.
WHAT WAS IT LIKE FOR THE
23-YEAR-OLD?
YOU CAN IMAGINE SOMEONE AS
FAMOUS AS BEYONCÉ TO BE
PROTECTIVE OF HER IMAGE BUT SHE
WAS REALLY AN OPEN BOOK AND
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT AS
A PHOTOGRAPHER.
HE TWEETED YESTERDAY THAT HE
DIDN'T BELIEVE IT UNTIL THE
FINISHED PRODUCT WAS IN HIS
HAND.
>>> YOU CAN TAKE A CLOSER LOOK
AT THE SEPTEMBER COVERS ON OUR
INSTAGRAM PAGE AND FOLLOW US
AT @CBCTHENATIONAL.
>>> FOR AS LONG AS I CAN
REMEMBER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN
SWEARING BY GOING CAR-FREE AS
ONE WAY OF SHAVING INCHES OFF
THE OLD WAISTLINE BUT CAN IT
ALSO SHAVE YEARS OFF YOUR LIFE
SPAN?
>>> PLUS, IN OUR SPECIAL CBC
SHORT DOC, WE BRING YOU A
POWERFUL FILM ABOUT THE
DEVASTATION OF GUN VIOLENCE.
YOU WILL MEET A TORONTO MOTHER
WHO LOST ALL THREE OF HER
CHILDREN TO IT.
>>> AND A CANADIAN LITTLE
LEAGUER STEPS U UP TO THE PLATE
TONIGHT IN WILLIAMSPORT,
PENNSYLVANIA.
THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD
SERIES TOURNAMENT IS THE END OF
A LONG ROAD FOR HIM.
YOU'LL SEE WHY IN OUR "MOMENT OF
THE DAY."
>> HE MADE IT HERE TODAY... ON
THE GROUND... THAT WILL GET
THROUGH.
BASE HIT TO SCORE THE FIRST RUN
FOR CANADA.
AND THINK ABOUT THAT, THE K K
LAURA McQUILLAN FAWD FAWD
JOLLIBEE PUGH PUGH
>> Andrew: RICE AND PASTA ARE
STABLSTAPLES BUT THEY'VE HAD A BAD
RAP.
MANY SWEAR BY A LOW-CARB DIET
BUT ACCORDING TO SOME IT MAY
SHORTEN YOUR LIFE.
THE STUDY LOOKED AT MORE THAN 15
NOW HO15,000 PEOPLE, PEOPLE WHO ATE
MOSTLY CARBS LIVED TO ABOUT 82
YEARS OLD AND THOSE WHO ATE
ABOUT HALF OF THEIR CALORIC
INTAKE LIVED ABOUT A YEAR
LONGER, BUT THOSE WHO ADHERED TO
A LOW CARB DIET DIED EARLIER AT
ABOUT 79 YEARS OLD.
SO WHAT'S THE LINK?
CHRISTINE BIRAK TAKES A LOOK.
>> IT IS THE DIET THAT CAN WORK
WHEN NOTHING ELSE WILL.
>> Reporter: IT'S CERTAINLY A
BLOW TO THE CULT OF POPULAR
LOW-CARB DIETS AND THERE HAVE
BEEN MANY.
KETOGENIC IS AMONG THE BIG ONE
LATELY.
>> AND THE FOCUS IS INCREASED
ENERGY, CONTROLLED BLOOD SUGAR.
>> Reporter: BUT A LARGE STUDY
FOLLOWED PEOPLE FOR 25 YEARS AND
FOUND CUTTING ALL OF THOSE
CARBOHYDRATES CAN REDUCE YOUR
LIFE EXPECTANCY BY UP TO FOUR
YEARS.
BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE REPLACE
CARBS WITH PROTEIN AND FAT FROM
ANIMALS.
>> SO OFTEN WE GET EXCITED, OH,
I HAVE REMOVED A BAG OF CHIPS
FROM MY DIET OR A SOFT DRINK
FROM MY DIET.
THIS STUDY DID A GREAT JOB OF
REALLY REMINDING PEOPLE THAT
IT'S NOT JUST WHEN YOU REMOVE
BUT IT'S WHAT YOU REPLACE IT
WITH THAT MATTERS.
>> Reporter: ON THE UPSIDE THE
STUDY FOUND THAT PEOPLE COULD
LIVE LONGER IF THEY REPLACED
SOME CARBS WITH PROTEIN AND FAT
FROM PLANTS INSTEAD.
EATING MORE VEGETABLES, NUTS AND
LEGUMES, INCLUDING BEANS,
CHICKPEAS AND LENTILS.
>> IT'S A GOOD EXAMPLE OF A
NUTRITION STUDY THAT ISN'T
COMING OUT AND SAYING WE HAVE
BEEN WRONG FOR 25 YEARS.
IT'S SUGGESTING THAT THE CURRENT
POLICIES ARE IN LINE.
>> Reporter: IN OTHER WORDS,
IF HALF OF YOUR CALORIES COME
FROM CARBOHYDRATES IT'S FINE.
EVERYTHING IN MODERATION.
SOUNDS SIMPLE BUT IT REALLY
ISN'T.
DOCTORS SAY THAT TOO OFTEN THE
STRUGGLE TO LOSE WEIGHT IS
SOCIAL STIGMA AND BIAS, NOT
HEALTH.
FAD DIETS OFFER THIN HOPE AND
NOT LASTING CHANGE.
>> WHAT WE TELL PATIENTS IS TO
MAKE SMALL CHANGES THEY BUILD
UPON RATHER THAN BIG LEAPS OF
CHANGE.
BUT THAT WHATEVER CHANGES THEY
MAKE THEY'LL HAVE TO KEEP THEM
UP AND IF THEY HAVE TO KEEP THEM
UP THEY BETTER LIKE THEM.
>> Reporter: HIS ADVICE?
COOK YOUR OWN FOOD AND DRINK
LESS AND EXERCISE MORE.
IT'S CHEAP JUST NOT EASY.
CHRISTINE BIRAK, CBC NEWS,
TORONTO.
>> Andrew: NOT EASY FOR SURE.
>>> STILL AHEAD ON "THE

FLOODING IN DECADES.
MANY OF THE VICTIMS WERE KILLED

THIS WEEK'S GENOA BRIDGE
COLLAPSE WERE LAID TO REST BUT
THEIR FAMILIES DECIDED TO
BOYCOTT TOMORROW'S STATE FUNERAL
SAYING THAT IT WAS NEGLIGENCE

EARTHQUAKE IT.
STRUCK IN THE SOUTHERN PART OF

IT WAS ALSO A SHALLOW
EARTHQUAKE, ABOUT 19 KILOMETRES
DOWN, WHICH MAKES IT A MORE
DESTRUCTIVE EARTHQUAKE.
FORTUNATELY AT THIS POINT NO
REPORTS OF SERIOUS INJURIES OR
DAMAGE.
>>> MEANWHILE AUTHORITIES IN
CHILE SAY THEY HAVE FIGURED OUT
WHO CALLED IN THE BOMB THREAT

YESTERDAY IN SOUTH AMERICA.
THEY SAY THAT IT WAS A
29-YEAR-OLD MAN WHO APPARENTLY
WAS UPSET AFTER AN AIRLINE
FAILED TO RETURN HIS SUITCASE.
HE WAS ARRESTED TODAY.
A LAWYER FOR THE SUSPECT SAYS
THAT HE DENIES MAKING THE CALLS.

VETERAN WHO FOUGHT IN BOTH THE
SECOND WORLD WAR AND THE KOREAN

CARRIED THE SCARS OF SOME OF THE
MOST NOTORIOUS BATTLES.
>> THIS KNIFE ON MY BELT, WE
WERE ALL ISSUED AND IT WAS A
KILLING KNIFE.
SOME WORE THEM ON THEIR THIGH.
>> Reporter: A PARATROOPER IN
NORMANDY HE WAS WOUNDED ON THE
EVE OF D-DAY.
LATER HE FOUND IN THE BATTLE OF
THE BULGGE AND THEN IN THE
INVASION OF GERMANY WHERE HE
TOOK A BULLET TO THE LEG.
>> HE WAS AN AMAZING SOLDIER.
NOT MANY MEN ARE MADE OF THAT
TYPE OF MATERIAL, YOU MAY SAY,
AND, YEAH, HE WAS A SOLDIER'S
SOLDIER FOR SURE.
>> Reporter: YEARS AFTER THAT
WAR HE LEFT THE KEYS TO THE
COUNTRY STORE HE RAN IN PICTOU
COUNTY, NOVA SCOTIA, TO HIS
MOTHER.
RUSHTON HAD SIGNED UP AGAIN,
THIS TIME TO FIGHT IN THE KOREAN
WAR.
>> THEY OFTEN THOUGHT OF HIM AS
A FATHER FIGURE.
WHEN MY FATHER WAS LEADING THEM
INTO THE BATTLE THEY WERE QUITE
COMFORTABLE WITH HIM.
THE MEN TRULY TRUSTED HIM.
AND THEY FELT AT EASE.
EVEN THE KOREAN PEOPLE THAT WERE
THERE, LITTLE BOYS THAT WERE
BEING ATTACKED AND MURDERED, HE
TOOK THEM UNDER HIS WING.
>> Reporter: AND STILL ON HIS
RETURN FROM THE KOREAN WAR HE
DIDN'T GIVE UP THE FIGHT.
THIS TIME PUSHING OTTAWA FOR
PROPER RECOGNITION OF KOREAN WAR
VETS.
>> IT TOOK 45 YEARS TO EVEN GET
A SERVICE PIN TO RECOGNIZE THE
FACT THAT WE SERVED IN KOREA.
>> Reporter: ALONG THE WAY HE
INSPIRED HIS OWN SON TO ENLIST
AND AS FATE WOULD HAVE IT TO
SERVE IN THE SAME BATTALION THAT
HIS FATHER DID YEARS EARLIER.
>> HE CAME UP TO ME AND THEY
SAID, RUSHTON, AND I GOT ON THE
PHONE THAT EVENING AND I TOLD
HIM, I SAID THAT YOU WILL NEVER
GUESS WHAT.
AND I'M GOING TO YOUR BATTALION.
>> Reporter: IT'S A BIG DEAL?
>> YEAH.
>> Reporter: A BIG DEAL FOR
YOU?
>> IT WAS, YEAH.
>> Reporter: ROY RUSHTON DIED
EARLIER THIS SPRING AT AGE 100,
BUT NOT BEFORE MAKING A FULL
RECOVERY FROM A BROKEN BACK AND
A HIP LATER IN LIFE, A FIGHTER
TO THE END.
HIS FAMILY HAS HIS MEDALS TO
PROVE ROY RUSHTON WAS A HERO.
HIS CREMATED ASHES ARE NEVER FAR
FROM HIS WIFE'S SIDE.
NOW THERE'S THAT TINY PIECE OF
STEEL THAT PAINED RUSHTON FOR 74
YEARS, A PIECE OF GERMAN
SHRAPNEL FROM NORMANDY THAT IT
TURNED OUT SYMBOLIZED SO MUCH
MORE.
>> BRAVERY -- MAINLY BRAVERY.
>> Reporter: WHAT DOES IT MEAN
TO HAVE THAT PIECE OF METAL NOW?
>> EVERYTHING.
>> Reporter: WHY?
>> BECAUSE IT'S FROM ROY.
>> Reporter: A HUSBAND,
FATHER, SOLDIER, WHOSE LIFE OF
ADVENTURE THEY'LL NEVER FORGET.
TOM MURPHY, CBC NEWS, WESTVILLE,
NOVA SCOTIA.
>> Andrew: OKAY, A PLAY ABOUT
A DISABLED CANADIAN VETERAN
DEBUTS TONIGHT AT THE EDMONTON
FRINGE FESTIVAL AND JUST AHEAD
HOW FINDING AN ACTOR TO FIND THE
LEAD TOOK SOME INSPIRED CASTING.
>> I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO WAR AND
I CAN'T PLAY THAT, BUT I CAN
PLAY THIS PERSON AND SO I LOOK
AT THE EXPERIENCES THAT HE TALKS
ABOUT FROM HIS TIME IN
AFGHANISTAN AND THEN TRY TO DO
THAT STORY JUSTICE.
(*)
>> Andrew: THAT'S COMING UP
BUT, FIRST, ALWAYS WORTH A
REMINDER "THE NATIONAL TODAY"
TAKES YOU INSIDE OF OUR
JOURNALISM EVERY AFTERNOON.
IT TAKES YOU DEEPER ON THE TOP
STORIES AND HIGHLIGHTS THE
STORIES THAT YOU MAY HAVE
MISSED.
THIS IS OUR NEWSLETTER.
TODAY A NEW REPORT ON AMERICAN
C.E.O.s SAY THAT THEIR
COMPENSATION HAVE ROCKETED UP
17%.
SO WE LOOKED AT CANADIAN
C.E.O.s WHO ARE NOT DOING TOO
BAD EITHER.
>> THERE ARE NO WORDS.
AND ONE MINUTE THEY'RE HERE AND
THE NEXT THEY'RE NOT.
SO MY LIFE WAS LIKE SO EMPTY,
LIKE, THERE WAS SO MUCH THINGS
MISSING.
>> Andrew: A GRIEVING MOTHER
IS TOUCHED BY GUN VIOLENCE AGAIN
AND AGAIN.
ALL THREE OF HER CHILDREN WERE
KILLED IN THREE SEPARATE AND
UNRELATED SHOOTINGS.
IT IS BEYOND IMAGINATION HOW
CAROL ROACHE MUST HAVE MADE
SENSE OF ANY OF THAT.
THE LIVES, THE RELATIONSHIPS CUT
SHORT, HOW TO CARRY ON.
WELL, TONIGHT ON "THE NATIONAL"
WE BRING YOU HER STORY AND HER
REFLECTION IN A CBC SHORT DOC
CALLED "WALK GOOD."
>> AS A PARENT YOU INTEND TO
LOVE HARD.
THEY GROW IN YOUR STOMACH FOR
NINE MONTHS, YOU GIVE BIRTH TO
THEM.
YOU LOVE THEM AND YOU CARE FOR
THEM.
YOU TEACH THEM, YOU NURSE THEM,
YOU GUIDE THEM.
I HAVE DONE THAT WITH ALL THREE
OF MY CHILDREN.
ONLY TO HAVE OTHER PEOPLE TAKE
THEM AWAY FROM ME.
THAT NIGHT I WAS HAVING
DIFFICULTY SLEEPING.
THAT WAS A FIRST TIME THAT I WAS
AT A PARTY.
A FRIEND OF CRYSTAL'S THAT SHE
WAS WITH CALLED ME AND SAID
SOMETHING HAPPENED TO CRISSY.
I COULDN'T GET TO SEE HER
BECAUSE SHE WAS SHOT IN HER
HEAD.
SHE HAD A BULLET IN HER HEAD.
I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT AT FIRST
EVEN THOUGH IT'S BEEN TOLD TO
ME.
I JUST KEPT SAYING OH, THIS
CAN'T BE REAL.
YOU KNOW, IT CAN'T BE REAL.
I MUST HAVE ASKED THEM ABOUT 30
TIMES IF HE'S SURE.
A FEW DAYS AFTER AND THEN I HAD
TO GO AND FINALLY HAVE A LOOK AT
HER.
YOU KNOW, SEEING HER ALL WRAPPED
UP, ONLY HER FACE IS SHOWING,
SHE WAS WRAPPED FROM HEAD TO
TOE.
BECAUSE OF THE HEAD WOUNDS SO
THEY COVER ALL THINGS.
HER PRETTY FACE.
IT WAS VERY HARD TO LEAVE.
I THOUGHT OH, MY GOODNESS I'M
LEAVING HER.
CRYSTAL'S SIBLINGS, THEY WERE SO
DEVASTATED, THEY WERE SO
DISTRAUGHT.
IT WAS HARD.
HARD TO SEE THEM SUFFERING AND I
CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
YOU KNOW, WE WOULD TALK ABOUT
IT.
OR WE WOULD CRY TOGETHER.
I MEAN, THEY WERE KIDS AND WHAT
DO KIDS REALLY DO WITH A SIBLING
THAT THEY WERE BORN AND GROW
WITH AND SEE EVERY DAY OF THEIR
LIFE AND THEN THAT WAS NOW LIKE
RIPPED AWAY, IT'S LIKE RIPPING
UP A BODY PART.
(*)
AND I KEEP A LOT OF MY EMOTIONS
INSIDE.
I THINK FOR ME THAT'S THE BEST
WAY I KNOW HOW TO HANDLE MY
SITUATION.
YANNICK WAS VERY SMART FOR HIS
AGE.
AS A CHILD EVERY CAR THAT PASSED
HE'D TELL YOU WHAT TYPE, WHAT
MODEL, WHAT YEAR.
SO HE WAS VERY WISE.
I GOT A PHONE CALL THAT HE HAD
BEEN SHOT.
SO WHEN THEY LET ME INTO THE
HOSPITAL ROOM WHERE HE WAS HE
WAS ALREADY DONE, HE WAS ALREADY
DEAD, THEY SAY HE DIED INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY.
I COULDN'T BELIEVE, HIS LIFELESS
BODY JUST LAYING THERE.
AND THEN MY THIRD SON, JAMAL,
WAS JUST VERY HARD FOR HIM
EMOTIONALLY, VERY, VERY HARD FOR
HIM.
IT WAS LONELY.
HE WOULD LOOK AT ME AND SAY,
MOM, WE DON'T HAVE A BIG FAMILY
ANYMORE.
THERE'S JUST YOU AND ME NOW.
I ALWAYS MADE HIM PROMISE ME
THAT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO LEAVE
ME.
HE ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT HE WAS
GOING TO DIE WHEN HE REACHED 18
AS WELL.
SO HE DELIBERATELY JUST NEVER
CELEBRATED A BIRTHDAY AFTER
THAT.
I MEAN, CAN YOU IMAGINE BEING A
KID AND HAVING THAT WEIGHT ON
YOUR SHOULDERS?
THINKING THAT YOU'RE GOING TO
DIE AND GOING THROUGH LIFE,
GOING TO SCHOOL, PLAYING WITH
YOUR FRIENDS OR WHAT HAVE YOU,
BUT YOU HAVE THIS BURDEN ON YOUR
SHOULDERS THINKING THAT YOU'RE
GOING TO DIE JUST LIKE YOUR
SIBLINGS WHEN YOU REACH 18?
THAT'S A HEAVY WEIGHT FOR ANY
CHILD TO CARRY.
MY RELATIONSHIP WITH JAMAL WAS
VERY, VERY SPECIAL.
WE HAVE A BOND SO GREAT AS
MOTHER AND SON.
I THINK THAT BECAUSE I HAD MORE
TIME WITH HIM, WE NEVER ENDED A
CONVERSATION WITHOUT SAYING "I
LOVE YOU."
HE HAD COME AND SPENT THE WHOLE
ENTIRE DAY WITH ME.
I COOKED DINNER FOR BOTH OF US.
MASHED POTATOES, GRAVER GRAVY AND
BARBECUED CHICKEN, ONE OF HIS
FAVOURITES.
HE LOVED WHEN I COOKED.
BUT IT WAS TIME TO LEAVE AND I
WATCHED HIM GO DOWN THE HALL AND
GO DOWN THE STAIRS WHERE YOU
EXIT TO GO OUT AND CATCH THE
BUS.
MY LAST WORDS TO JAMAL WAS TO
WALK GOOD.
AND I LOVE YOU.
MY DOOR KNOCK... AND ONE OF THE
DETECTIVES SAID JAMAL WAS KILLED
LAST NIGHT AT 11:30.
AND POLICE HAD ALREADY
IDENTIFIED HIM SO I DIDN'T GET
TO SEE HIM UNTIL AFTER.
WHEN THE FUNERAL HOME RECEIVED
HIM FROM THE CORONER.
ONLY FIVE MINUTES, WE HAVE TO
PUT HIM ON ICE.
SO I HUGGED AND KISSED HIM AND
TOLD HIM NOT TO WORRY.
YOU'LL BE FINE.
(*)
I SURPRISE MYSELF SOMETIMES THE
WAY I BURY THESE THINGS.
AND I GO ON WITH LIFE.
AND NOT BREAK.
AT TIMES I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW
TO MOURN OR HOW TO FEEL.
YOU NEVER GET OVER A SITUATION
LIKE THIS WHERE ALL THREE OF
YOUR KIDS HAVE BEEN GUNNED DOWN.
YOU CAN NEVER GET OVER SOMETHING
LIKE THIS.
BUT YOU CAN GET THROUGH IT.
(*)
I'LL ALL CARRY THESE FEELINGS
AND THESE MEMORIES OF MY
CHILDREN.
CRYSTAL, YANNICK AND JAMAL.

>> Andrew: WHAT YOU JUST SAW
WAS A SHORTENED VERSION OF "WALK
GOOD."
TO WATCH THE FULL FILM HEAD TO
CBCNEWS.SHORTDOCS, YOU CAN FIND
>> Andrew: SOMETIMES WAR CAN
LEAVE SCARS THAT ARE QUITE
VISIBLE.
FOR SOME OF THOSE SOLDIERS THE
REAL BATTLE CAN BEGIN AT HOME.
IT CAN BE DIFFICULT AND A
DRAMATIC THING TO LIVE WITH.
IT'S WITH THAT THOUGHT, A NEW
PLAY DEBUTS AT THE EDMONTON
FRINGE FESTIVAL TITLED "WALK."
IT'S LOOSELY BASED ON THE LIFE
OF A CANADIAN FORCES MEDIC THAT
LOST BOTH LEGS IN AFGHANISTAN.
FOR THE PLAYWRIGHT, FINDING THE
INSPIRATION WAS EASY, BUT
FINDING A LEAD ACTOR WAS NOT.
RAFFY BOUDJIKANIAN WENT BEHIND
THE SCENES.
>> YOU NEED TO GET SOME HELP.
>> JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE.
IT'S THE STUMP
IT'S NOT FITTING IN THE LEG
WELL.
>> Reporter: LOOK CLOSELY AT
THIS REHEARSAL AND YOU WILL SEE
DESPITE IT BEING FICTION,
THERE'S SOMETHING REAL HERE,
AMPUTEE SOLDIER PLAYED BY AND
AMPUTEE WRITER.
LIANE FAULDER WROTE THE SCRIPT
AFTER A BOOK SHE WROTE ABOUT A
REAL LIFE SOLDIER.
>> NO ONE GOES TO AFGHANISTAN
AND THINKS, I WILL COME BACK
WITH NO LEGS.
PEOPLE DON'T EXPECT THAT TO
HAPPEN.
NO ONE THINKS THEY WILL HAPPEN
TO YOUR HUSBAND, TO YOUR FATHER.
>> Reporter: IT TOOK YEARS, BUT
WRITING WAS THE EASY PART.
FINDING A DOUBLE AMPUTEE FOR THE
LEAD ROLE WAS A CHALLENGE.
>> I'M LYING ON THE TABLE AND
I'M LOOKING UP LIKE, OH, MY GOD,
THEY'RE GOING TO CUT ME OPEN
AGAIN.
>> Reporter: THIS DRAMA TEACHER
LOST HIS LEGS TO MENINGITIS.
HE WANTED TO PLAY THE AMPUTEE
SOLDIER.
>> I DON'T KNOW IF I'VE SEEN A
PRESENCE OF A SHOW LIKE THAT
THAT DEALS WITH THE ISSUE OF
BEING AN AMPUTEE.
>> Reporter: HE DECLINED DUE TO
A SCHEDULING CONFLICT.
>> MY LEFT LEG IS FAKE.
IT'S MADE OF METAL AND SADNESS.
>> Reporter: STAND COMEDIAN LOST
ONE LEG.
A REWRITE AND MILITARY HAIRCUT
LATER, HE'S READY.
>> I'VE NEVER BEEN TO WAR AND
I'VE NEVER PLAYED THAT, BUT I
CAN PLAY THIS PERSON.
HE LOOKS AT HIS TIME IN
AFGHANISTAN AND THEN TRY TO DO
THAT STORY JUSTICE.
>> Reporter: GEARING UP FOR
PRIME TIME, THAT'S A MESSAGE
THAT FAULDER WANTS AUDIENCES TO
HEAR AS WELL.
>> I HOPE THAT PEOPLE WILL SEE
WHAT IT'S LIKE FOR SOLDIERS
COMING HOME FROM WAR AND ALSO
FROM A FAMILY AND HAVING TO
WRESTLE THROUGH IT TOGETHER.
>> Reporter: PRACTICE IS DONE
NOW, CAST AND CREW LEAVING THIS
MAKESHIFT STAGE BEHIND TO GET TO
THE EDMONTON FRINGE FESTIVAL,
CROSSING THEIR FINGERS THAT THE
WORK WILL LIVE ON BEYOND THIS
ONE SET OF CURTAIN CALLS.
RAFFY BOUDJIKANIAN, CBC NEWS,
EDMONTON.
>> Andrew: MORE TO COME ON THE
PROGRAMME.
ONE NOTE BEFORE WE GO TO BREAK,
TRIBUTES FROM AROUND THE WORLD
CONTINUE TO POUR IN FOR ARETHA
FRANKLIN.
TONIGHT, THERE ARE MORE DETAILS
ABOUT THE PLAN FOR A FINAL
GOODBYE.
*
R-E-S-P-E-C-T *
>> Adrienne: THERE WILL BE A
FOUR-DAY CELEBRATION OF HER LIFE
IN HER HOMETOWN OF DETROIT.
PRIVATE FUNERAL WILLING HELD
AUGUST 31.
BEFORE THAT, HER BODY WILL LIE
IN REPOSE FOR TWO DAYS AT THE
AFRICAN-AMERICAN MUSEUM.
IT WILL BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
ORGANISERS ARE WORKING ON A
MUSICAL TRIBUTE THAT WILL
INCLUDE MAJOR STARS.
AND DETROIT'S DIANA HAWKINS MAY
NOT BE ONE OF THEM, BUT SHE
SHOWED US THAT SHE'S AN ARETHA
FAN.
(*)
>> Announcer: Jonny's back.
>> Fufu.
>> Yeah, Fufu.
>> And I was like,
"Who's Fufu?"
>> Announcer: Still Standing.
>> I mean, look at Joe,
he doesn't look like the type
to have a Chihuahua at home.
>> Here's the Fufu.
>> Fufu.
>> Announcer: Part of
the Tuesday night
comedy line-up.
Returns September 18th on CBC.
>> Andrew: THE LITTLE LEAGUE
WORLD SERIES STARTED IN
WILLIAMSPORT, PENNSYLVANIA, AND
TEAM CANADA ALMOST HAD TO PLAY
WITHOUT ITS STAR PLAYER.
13-YEAR-OLD DIO GAMA HAD BEEN
TOLD THAT HE COULD NOT TRAVEL TO
THE U.S., BUT THERE WAS
INTERVENTION AND HE WAS ALLOWED
TO PLAY.
>> DIO GAMA MADE IT HERE TODAY.
>> Andrew: NOT ONLY WAS HE
THERE, HE KNOCKED IN THE FIRST
RUN OF THE GAME FOR CANADA.
>> THE KID THAT DID NOT THINK HE
WAS GOING TO BE HERE.
>> Andrew: UNTIL WEDNESDAY, HE
LOOKED AS IF DIO WOULDN'T BE
ABLE TO PLAY AT ALL.
HIS PARENTS HAD BEEN SEEKING
REFUGEE STATUS IN CANADA FOR
MORE THAN 10 YEARS.
WITH THEIR CASE IN LEGAL LIMBO,
DIO WAS TOLD IF HE LEFT THE
COUNTRY, HE MIGHT NOT BE ALLOWED
BACK IN.
SO WINNING THE NATIONAL
CHAMPIONSHIP WAS A BITTER SWEET
MOMENT.
HIS TEAM WROTE A LETTER TO
JUSTIN TRUDEAU AND EARLIER THIS
WEEK HE WAS GRANTED A TEMPORARY
RESIDENT PERMIT, SPARKING THIS
REACTION FROM HAPPY TEAMMATES.
>> GAMA!
GAMA!
>> Andrew: DIO ARRIVED IN
WILLIAMSPORT THIS MORNING.
AND YOU SAW, HE HAD A PRETTY
GOOD START TO THE GAME, BUT WE
DO HAVE A FINAL SCORE IN AND I
REGRET TO INFORM YOU THAT TEAM
CANADA DID LOSE TONIGHT'S GAME
TO LATIN AMERICA, 8-3.
SO THE TEAM DIDN'T DO SO HOT,
BUT THAT'S NOT THE END OF THE
STORY FOR THEM.
THEY DO HAVE ANOTHER GAME COMING
UP TOMORROW.
THAT'S AGAINST SPAIN.
IT'S DO OR DIE.
THEY HAVE TO WIN THAT GAME.
IF THEY LOSE THE GAME, THEY'RE
OUT.
BUT, HEY, THEY MIGHT WIN, AND
EVEN IF THEY LOSE, THEY'RE
PLAYING ON THE WORLD'S STAGE,
WHICH IS INCREDIBLE FOR NEXT SO
THEY WIN EITHER WAY.
THAT'S "THE NATIONAL" FOR THIS
AUGUST 17.
HAVE A GREAT NIGHT.
