>> Rosemary: ON THIS MONDAY
NIGHT...
>> WE SEE THEM AND NOW WE CAN
PULL THEM OVER.
>> Rosemary: WITH THE NEW YEAR
COMES NEW LAWS, INCLUDING SOME
OF THE TOUGHEST IN THE COUNTRY.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE
NEW PENALTIES WHEN YOU REACH FOR
YOUR PHONE.
(*)
>> THERE'S NO JOKE.
THIS IS
SOMEONE WHO IS UPSET BECAUSE
PEOPLE CAME OUT OF A TRAGEDY AND
THEY HAVE BECOME CIVICALLY
ENGAGED?
>> Rosemary: COMEDIAN LOUIS
C.K. STIRS FRESH OUTRAGE WITH
TONE DEAF JOKES THAT MOCK
SURVIVORS OF THE PARKLAND SCHOOL
SHOOTING.
>> HOW MANY OF YOU?
>> THIS IS A CIRCUS.
>> Rosemary: AND A LOOK BACK
AT THE YEAR THAT WAS FROM CAVES
AND COURTS TO CELEBRATIONS.
PLUS THE LIVES LIVED AND LOST IN
2018.
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
(*)
>>> WE ARE JUST HOURS AWAY FROM
2019 AND PEOPLE ACROSS THE
COUNTRY
HAVE A NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION IN
MIND FOR CANADIANS.
IF YOU'RE STILL IN THE HABIT OF
REACHING FOR YOUR PHONES WHILE
BEHIND THE WHEEL, GIVE IT UP OR
FACE THE CONSEQUENCES.
AS OLIVIA STEFANOVICH EXPLAINS,
DRIVERS HAD BETTER START PAYING
ATTENTION IF THEY WANT TO STAY
ON THE ROAD.
>> JUST DRIVE UP AND DOWN THE
SHOULDER HERE...
>> Reporter: ON CANADA'S
BUSIEST HIGHWAY IT DOESN'T TAKE
LONG FOR ONTARIO PROVINCIAL
POLICE SERGEANT CARY SCHMIDT TO
SPOT A DISTRACTED DRIVER.
>> HOW ARE YOU DOING?
YOU KNOW WHY I'M STOPPING YOU?
>> PROBABLY BECAUSE I HAD MY
PHONE.
>> PROBABLY BECAUSE YOU HAD YOUR
PHONE.
>> Reporter: AND THE EXCUSE?
>> I HAD A CALL FROM WORK AND
THEY HAD A
QUESTION AND I TOOK THE CALL.
>> Reporter: IT'S A REFLEX
THAT ONTARIO IS TRYING TO PUT
THE BRAKES ON.
STARTING TOMORROW DRIVERS CAUGHT
TALKING, TEXTING, DIALLING OR
LOOKING UP DIRECTIONS ON THEIR
HANDHELD DEVICES WILL BE FINED
UP TO $1,000.
AND THEY WILL RECEIVE THREE
DEMERIT POINTS AND LOSE THEIR
LICENCE FOR THREE DAYS.
IF THEY'RE CAUGHT AGAIN IT WILL
COST THEM $2,000.
A THIRD TIME?
$3,000.
THEY'RE THE TOUGHEST PENALTIES
FOR REPEAT DISTRACTED DRIVERS IN
THE COUNTRY.
IT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE THIS DRIVER
CHANGE HIS BEHAVIOUR.
THIS WILL MAKE YOU THINK TWICE?
>> THIS WILL MAKE ME THINK THREE
TIMES, ACTUALLY.
>> Reporter: DISTRACTED
DRIVING HAS BEEN A LEADING CAUSE
OF DEATH ON ONTARIO ROADS FOR
THE LAST FIVE YEARS.
CLAIMING 83 LIVES IN 2018.
>> IT'S ABSOLUTELY HEARTBREAKING
AND FRUSTRATING.
>> Reporter: BUT SOME FEEL
THAT THE NEW LAWS DON'T GO FAR
ENOUGH.
THIS LEGAL EXPERT IS PUSHING FOR
A PRIVATE MEMBER'S BILL IN THE
ONTARIO LEGISLATURE THAT WOULD
FORCE OFFENDERS TO TAKE
MANDATORY DRIVING COURSES AND
PERFORM COMMUNITY SERVICE.
>> IT'S A MEANINGFUL PENALTY SO
THAT YOU HAVE A REAL DETERRENT
OUT THERE.
>> Reporter: OTHERS WANT TO
SEE A BROADER EDUCATIONAL
CAMPAIGN TO CONVINCE PEOPLE JUST
HOW DANGEROUS DISTRACTED DRIVING
IS.
>> HELPING PEOPLE TO RECOGNIZE
THAT WOULD BE AN IMPORTANT STEP
FORWARD.
>> Reporter: SCHMIDT AGREES.
>> WE NEED EVERYONE TO REALLY
STEP UP AND TO MAKE THIS
SOCIALLY UNACCEPTABLE.
>> Reporter: HE SAYS THAT
POLICE CAN'T KICK IT INTO
COMPLIANCE BUT STARTING TOMORROW
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY'LL DO.
OLIVIA STEFANOVICH, CBC NEWS,
TORONTO.
>> Rosemary: OF COURSE
DISTRACTED DRIVING IS NOT JUST
AN ONTARIO ISSUE, IT'S A
NATIONAL ONE AND ALMOST EVERY
PROVINCE OR TERRITORY HAS SOME
FORM OF LAW LIMITING THE USE OF
CELLPHONES.
MANY OF THEM, IN FACT, WERE JUST
TOUGHENED UP THIS YEAR.
ACCORDING TO C.A.A., DRIVERS
WILL BE DOCKED BETWEEN THREE AND
SIX DEMERIT POINTS FOR EACH
CONVICTION.
THE FINES RUN FROM A MINIMUM OF
$173 IN NEW BRUNSWICK AS OLIVIA
MENTIONED THERE UP TO $3,000 FOR
A REPEATED OFFENSE IN ONTARIO.
THE ONLY EXCEPTION IS NUNAVUT
WHERE THERE'S NO DISTRACTED
DRIVING LAW, YET ANYWAY.
AND OTTAWA WILL ALSO BE HOSTING
IN A WHOLE
HOST OF TAX CHANGES TOMORROW
AFFECTING CANADIANS AND
BUSINESSES.
CANADA'S PENSION PLAN WILL START
TO COST A LITTLE MORE THIS YEAR.
ITS CONTRIBUTIONS INCREASE
SLIGHTLY.
IT'S A MOVE MEANT TO IMPROVE THE
PLAN OVER THE LONG TERM AND ONE
THAT MOSTLY BENEFITS CANADIANS
JUST ENTERING THE WORKFORCE.
EMPLOYMENT INSURANCE PREMIUMS
WILL DROP TO MAKE UP SOME OF
THOSE COSTS.
SMALL BUSINESS WILL SEE
IMMEDIATE RELIEF IN THE NEW YEAR
WITH THEIR TAX RATE FALLING FROM
10% TO 9%.
OTTAWA WANTS TO ENCOURAGE OWNERS
TO REINVEST THEIR EARNINGS BACK
IN THEIR BUSINESS OR HIRE MORE
PEOPLE RATHER THAN SITTING ON
THE CASH SO THAT SMALL BUSINESS
HAS MORE THAN $50,000 IN PASSIVE
INCOME -- MONEY BEING SAVED
INSIDE OF
THE BUSINESS, IT WILL LOSE
ACCESS TO THE LOWER TAX RATE.
THIS YEAR
ALSO MARKS THE YEAR WHEN THE
FEDERAL CARBON TAX PLAN WILL HIT
ALL PROVINCES AND IMPOSED ON
THOSE WHO DON'T HAVE THEIR OWN.
FOR CONSUMERS OTTAWA ESTIMATES
THAT IT MEANS AN EXTRA 4.42
CENTS PER LITRE AT THE PUMP BUT
THE GOVERNMENT ALSO SAYS THAT IT
WILL GIVE OUT AN ANNUAL REBATE
THAT SHOULD OFFSET THOSE
INCREASES.
>>> BRITAIN AND FRANCE WILL TRY
TO STOP MIGRANTS FROM REACHING
THE U.K. BY BOAT.
UNTIL RECENTLY IT WAS RARE FOR
MIGRANTS TO ARRIVE THERE BY SEA,
BUT ABOUT 240 PEOPLE HAVE COME
ASHORE SINCE
NOVEMBER.
AS BRIAR STEWART REPORTS, THEY
ARE URGING POLITICIANS TO TRY TO
KEEP THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE.
>> Reporter: THIS MORNING ON A
BEACH IN SOUTHEAST ENGLAND A
FAMILIAR SCENE -- AN INFLATABLE
RAFT.
THIS ONE CARRIED 12 IRANIAN
MIGRANTS, INCLUDING A
10-YEAR-OLD CHILD ACROSS THE
CHANNEL.
IT'S A STRETCH OF
WATER NOW MORE CLOSELY WATCHED
BY BRITISH AUTHORITIES.
>> GIVEN THE CURRENT SITUATION
THE RIGHT THING TO DO IS TO
REDEPLOY SOME OF THOSE ASSETS
AND MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE
BOTH PROTECTING HUMAN LIFE BUT
AT THE
SAME TIME PROTECTING OUR
BORDERS.
>> Reporter: THE U.K. IS
PULLING BACK TWO OF ITS SHIPS
FROM THE MEDITERRANEAN AND
STATIONING THEM IN THE ENGLISH
CHANNEL WHERE THEY'LL JOIN ONE
OTHER BOAT ALREADY ON PATROL.
>> GOOD MORNING, HOME SECRETARY.
>> Reporter: TODAY THE HOME
SECRETARY MET WITH THE U.K.
BORDER FORCES AFTER HE AND OTHER
OFFICIALS FOUND THEMSELVES UNDER
INCREASING PRESSURE TO DO
SOMETHING.
SINCE CHRISTMAS EVE IT'S
ESTIMATED THAT MORE THAN 100
MIGRANTS HAVE MADE THE PERILOUS
CROSSING.
AND SOME ARE NOW CALLING FOR
THEM TO BE SENT BACK.
THE M.P. FOR DOVER EVEN WANTS TO
SEE THE BRITISH BOAT BE ALLOWED
TO DROP THE MIGRANTS BACK OFF IN
FRANCE.
>> SO THAT ANYONE FOUND IN THE
ENGLISH CHANNEL IN ONE OF THESE
UN-SEAWORTHY CRAFT CAN BE HELPED
CAREFULLY AND SAFELY BACK TO THE
FRENCH COAST THAT THEY KNOW THAT
THERE'S NO CHANCE OF GETTING
INTO BRITAIN.
>> Reporter: THAT WILL ALMOST
CERTAINLY BE A TOUGH SELL.
STILL, THERE ARE OTHERS WHO
THINK THAT THE WHOLE
CONVERSATION HAS BEEN TOTALLY
BLOWN OUT OF PROPORTION IN
BRITAIN.
CONSIDERING THAT THERE ARE MUCH
POORER COUNTRIES WHO ARE TAKING
IN MANY MORE PEOPLE, LIKE THE
700,000 ROHINGYA REFUGEES WHO
FLED TO BANGLADESH.
>> NOW WE SEE, AND IN OTHER
PLACES, HUGE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE
FORCED ACROSS BORDERS AND HERE
WE ARE HAVING A MASSIVE PANIC
OVER A COUPLE DOZEN PEOPLE WHO
HAVE ARRIVED ON THE COAST.
>> Reporter: BUT OFFICIALS
DON'T LIKE THE TREND.
AND THEY'RE TRYING TO GET A HAND
-- HANDLE ON IT BEFORE MORE
PEOPLE THINK
THAT THIS IS A NEW PATH FOR
ASYLUM IN U.K.
BRIAR STEWART, CBC NEWS, LONDON.
>> Rosemary: IN SOME QUARTERS
ELIZABETH WARREN IS KNOWN AS A
TRUMP PUNCHLINE.
THE FIREBRAND U.S. SENATOR FROM
MASSACHUSETTS
THOUGH IS DETERMINED TO CHANGE
THAT.
WARREN IS THE FIRST PROMINENT
DEMOCRAT CONTENDER TO STEP
FORWARD AND ANNOUNCE THAT SHE
MAY BE PREPARING A PRESIDENTIAL
BID, BUT SHE CERTAINLY WON'T BE
THE LAST.
AS RON CHARLES EXPLAINS, TO GET
TO TRUMP, WARREN FIRST NEEDS TO
WIN OVER DEMOCRATS.
>> I'M ELIZABETH
WARREN, THIS IS MY HUSBAND.
SINCE I MADE THE ANNOUNCEMENT
THIS MORNING I HAVE ALREADY
RECEIVED DONATIONS FROM ALL 50
STATES, THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
AND PUERTO RICO.
>> Reporter: ELIZABETH WARREN
ISN'T COMMITTING TO RUNNING JUST
YET BUT AN EXPLORATORY COMMITTEE
ALLOWS HER TO GATHER MONEY AND
STAFF.
THE FORMER HARVARD LAW PROFESSOR
PROMOTES POPULISM FROM THE LEFT.
>> I'M IN THIS FIGHT BECAUSE
I UNDERSTAND WHAT'S HAPPENING TO
WORKING FAMILIES.
>> Reporter: TAKING ON BIG
BANKS AND CORPORATE C.E.O.s
AND THE POLITICIANS WHO SUPPORT
THEM.
>> THE PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE
GOT RIGHT NOW IN WASHINGTON IS
THAT
IT WORKS GREAT FOR THOSE WHO
HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY INFLUENCE.
>> Reporter: WARREN FACES A
POTENTIALLY CROWDED FIELD FOR
THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION.
POTENTIAL RIVALS?
SOME OF HER YOUNG SENATE
COLLEAGUES INCLUDING KAMALA
HARRIS AND CORY BOOKER AND
KIRSTEN GILLIBRAND AND JOE BIDEN
AND SENATOR SANDERS.
BUT THE DEMOCRATIC POLITICAL
CONSULTANT PREDICTS THAT A DREAM
TICKET THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE
WARREN.
>> JOE BIDEN LOOKS BETTER BY THE
MINUTE WITH KAMALA HARRIS AS THE
VICE PRESIDENT AND IT GIVES
EVERYTHING, GENDER
MINUTE WITH KAMALA HARRIS AS THE
VICE PRESIDENT AND IT GIVES
EVERYTHING, GENDER AND RACE AND
GIVES THEM EXPERIENCE.
>> Reporter: ALSO WARREN IS
NOT WITHOUT CONTROVERSY AND
MISSTEPS.
SHE RESPONDED TO DONALD TRUMP'S
TAUNTS ABOUT HER CLAIMS TO
NATIVE AMERICAN ANCESTORY --
>> President Donald Trump:
THEY CALL HER POCOHONTAS.
>> Reporter: TAKING A
D.N.A. TEST THAT SUGGEST SOMEDAY
-- SUGGESTED SOME
NATIVE BLOOD BUT THAT ANGERED
SOME NATIVE LEADERS WHO SAY IT'S
ABOUT MORE THAN D.N.A.
>> IF WE ORGANIZE TOGETHER...
>> Reporter: A CAMPAIGN-STYLE
VIDEO THAT
WARREN RELEASED TODAY SHOWS A
COUPLE IMAGES OF DONALD TRUMP
AND DESCRIBES WHERE SHE BELIEVES
THAT HE'S TAKING THE NATION.
>> President Donald Trump:
BUILD THAT WALL!
>> THIS DARK PATH DOESN'T HAVE
TO BE OUR FUTURE.
>> Reporter: BUT SHE NEVER
MENTIONS HIM BY NAME, A NEW TACT
IN WHAT PROMISES TO BE A
LONG AND COMBATIVE CONTEST.
RON CHARLES, CBC NEWS,
WASHINGTON.
>> Rosemary: STAYING IN
WASHINGTON, IF ANYONE EXPECTED
SOME NEW YEAR TURNAROUND IN THE
10-DAY-LONG U.S. GOVERNMENT
SHUTDOWN, THOSE HOPES WERE
DASHED WITH THE DROP OF A GAVEL
TODAY.
>> UNDER THE PREVIOUS ORDER THE
SENATE STANDS ADJOURNED TO 4:00
p.m., ON WEDNESDAY
JANUARY 2nd, 2019.
>> Rosemary: THAT'S A WRAP IN
THE U.S. SENATE.
BOTH CHAMBERS OF CONGRESS WERE
OPEN FOR JUST A FEW MINUTES
TODAY WITH EXACTLY ZERO ACTION
TO END THE SHUTDOWN.
THE PROBLEM, OF COURSE, IS THAT
LAWMAKERS ARE STILL UP AGAINST A
WALL.
DONALD TRUMP'S WALL, IN FACT.
THE U.S. PRESIDENT CONTINUES TO
DEMAND A BARRIER ACROSS THE
U.S.-MEXICAN BORDER.
THE NEW DEMOCRATIC-LED HOUSE IS
EXPECTED TO PASS A BILL FUNDING
THE GOVERNMENT AGAIN, BUT THERE
WILL BE NO MONEY FOR A WALL.
SPEAKING OF THINGS THAT TRUMP
WANTS...
>> I THINK THAT THE PRESIDENT IS
VERY COMMITTED TO MAKING SURE
THAT WHEN WE LEAVE SYRIA THAT
ISIS IS COMPLETELY DEFEATED.
SO I THINK THAT WE'RE IN A PAUSE
SITUATION.
>> Rosemary: THAT WAS THE U.S.
REPUBLICAN SENATOR LINDSEY
GRAHAM
SEEMINGLY REASSURED BY THE
PRESIDENT'S SYRIA POLICY.
TRUMP'S RECENT DECISION TO PULL
U.S. TROOPS FROM SYRIA WAS
CONTROVERSIAL.
IT EVEN PROMPTED THE RESIGNATION
OF HIS DEFENCE SECRETARY.
BUT BY TWEET TODAY THE PRESIDENT
SEEMED TO CONFIRM GRAHAM'S
REMARKS THAT IT'S NOT THE RAPID
WITHDRAW IT ORIGINALLY LOOKED
AT, SAYING, QUOTE, "WE'RE
SLOWLY SENDING OUR TROOPS BACK
HOME."
>>> DUTCH MILITARY POLICE HAVE
ARRESTED A 51-YEAR-OLD CANADIAN
MAN AFTER A BOMB THREAT AT
AMSTERDAM'S AIRPORT.
THE DEPARTURE AND ARRIVAL HALLS
WERE EVACUATED AS A PRECAUTION.
NO EXPLOSIVES WERE FOUND AND THE
AIRPORT HAS SINCE REOPENED.
THE INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING AND
POLICE EXPECT TO HAVE AN UPDATE
TOMORROW.
>>> TODAY IS THE TAX DEADLINE
FOR CHARITABLE DONATIONS IN 2018
AND IF PREVIOUS YEARS ARE ANY
INDICATION, CANADIANS
WILL GIVE AT LEAST $14 BILLION
TO HELP OTHERS.
BUT AS KAREN PAULS TELLS US,
BABY BOOMERS, THEY GIVE A LOT,
YOUNGER CANADIANS LESS.
AND FOR A CHARITY THAT SHE SPOKE
TO, THAT'S A DISTURBING TREND.
>> AND WE JUST MET... THEY
MENTIONED THAT GOING TO SCHOOL
IS LIKE A DREAM...
>> Reporter: HER GRADE FIVE
GLOBAL CITIZEN CLUB IS LEARNING
WHY 58 MILLION CHILDREN AROUND
THE WORLD ARE NOT IN SCHOOL LIKE
THEY ARE.
>> IT'S A LONG WAY TO SCHOOL.
AND THERE MIGHT BE PEOPLE TRYING
TO CATCH YOU AND TRYING
TO SHOOT GUNS.
>> THEY DON'T HAVE WASHROOMS.
>> Reporter: SHE LIVED IN
LEBANON'S WAR ZONE FOR 17 YEARS
SO SHE KNOWS FIRSTHAND WHY IT'S
IMPORTANT TO TEACH MORE
FORTUNATE CHILDREN ABOUT SOCIAL
JUSTICE AND PHILANTHROPY.
>> AND TO TURN THIS EMPATHY AND
COMPASSION INTO ACTION.
>> Reporter: REACHING YOUNG
PEOPLE HAS BECOME A TOP PRIORITY
FOR CHARITIES.
SOME RECENT STUDIES SHOW THAT
CANADIANS OVER 50 DONATE 75% OF
ALL INDIVIDUAL GIFTS WORTH
$4.3 BILLION.
AND THE NEXT GENERATION ISN'T
STEPPING UP.
DONORS UNDER 40 DROPPED TO 22%
IN 2014, FROM 41% IN 1985.
AS ELDERLY PARENTS PASS DOWN
THEIR WEALTH, CHARITIES LIKE
THIS ONE AREN'T NECESSARILY
BENEFITING FROM IT.
THAT'S BECAUSE THEIR CHILDREN
MAY BE USING THAT MONEY TO PAY
DOWN THEIR DEBT, GO ON A TRIP,
OR TO BUY A COTTAGE.
>> IF WE'RE TO LOOK AT ABOUT 30%
OF GIVING HEADING THAT WAY, IF
THAT DOESN'T TRANSLATE INTO
CONTINUED GIVING THAT WILL PUT
SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL STRESS ON
AN ALREADY STRESSED CHARITABLE
FUNDRAISING SYSTEM.
THE KIND OF FUNDRAISING APPROACH
THAT YOU MAY TAKE FOR A
75-YEAR-OLD DONOR VERSUS A
20-YEAR-OLD DONOR, THAT
MESSAGING, THAT VERY DELIVERY
VEHICLE, MIGHT BE QUITE
DIFFERENT.
>> Reporter: FOR EXAMPLE,
UNICEF CANADA HAS DONE AWAY WITH
THE ORANGE CHANGE BOXES THAT
KIDS USED TO CARRY AT HALLOWEEN.
IT'S NOW FOCUSING ON EDUCATING
CHILDREN.
>> THIS IS OUR GIVING
CATALOGUE...
>> Reporter: THE MENNONITE
CENTRAL COMMITTEE RECENTLY SENT
OUT
SURVEYS TO SEE WHAT DONORS WILL
SUPPORT.
>> WE NEED TO BE CLEAR ABOUT OUR
MESSAGE AND WHAT VALUE WE BRING
TO OUR DONORS.
>> Reporter: WORLDVISION
CANADA'S ONLINE
CATALOGUE AND CHILD SPONSORSHIP
PROGRAMME ARE STILL ATTRACTING
BABY BOOMERS, BUT IT'S DOING A
LOT OF RESEARCH TO FIND OUT HOW
TO MOBILIZE YOUNG PEOPLE.
>> WE NEED TO REACH THEM WHEN
THEY'RE AVAILABLE.
IT'S ON THEIR TERMS.
>> WHAT KIND OF ACTIVITIES OR
GAMES WOULD YOU PLAN?
>> Reporter: BACK AT THE
GLOBAL CITIZENS' CLUB THEY'RE
PLANNING A FUNDRAISER FOR
STUDENTS IN SOUTH SUDAN.
>> I REALLY LIKE HOW WE'RE
HELPING OTHER CHILDREN LIKE US
ALL AROUND THE WORLD.
>> Reporter: THESE YOUNG
PEOPLE AT LEAST ARE GETTING THE
MESSAGE.
KAREN PAULS, CBC NEWS, WINNIPEG.
>> Rosemary: LOTS MORE STILL
AHEAD ON "THE NATIONAL" THIS NEW
YEAR'S EVE TRADITION.
IN WHAT IS
NOW A TRADITION AROUND HERE...
OUR 2018 EDITION OF "REWIND," A
LOOK BACK AT THE MOMENTS AND THE
LIVES THAT LEFT THEIR IMPRINT ON
THE YEAR.
>>> BUT NEXT, COMEDIAN LOUIS
C.K. IS IN TROUBLE AGAIN.
THIS TIME IT'S FOR
MOCKING SURVIVORS OF THE
PARKLAND SCHOOL SHOOTING.
>> HE'S JUST THROWN OPEN THE
DOOR AND GONE YOU KNOW WHAT, I'M
GOING DOWN IN FLAMES AND I'M
GOING TO TAKE AS MANY PEOPLE
WITH ME AS P
>> HOW DO WOMEN STILL GO OUT
WITH GUYS WHEN YOU CONSIDER THE
FACT THAT THERE'S NO GREATER
THREAT TO WOMEN THAN MEN?
>> Rosemary: LOUIS C.K. WAS
TELLING THAT JOKE BEFORE FIVE
WOMEN CAME FORWARD LATE LAST
YEAR TO ACCUSE HIM OF SEXUAL
MISCONDUCT.
THE COMIC THEN ADMITTED THEIR
CLAIMS WERE TRUE FOR THE MOST
PART.
HE PLEDGED TO STEP BACK AND TO
TAKE SOME TIME TO LISTEN.
TODAY THOUGH PEOPLE ARE
LISTENING TO LOUIS C.K. ONCE
AGAIN AND MANY ARE ANGERED BY
WHO HE'S CHOSEN TO RIDICULE --
SURVIVORS OF THE WORST SCHOOL
SHOOTING IN THE UNITED STATES.
THE CBC'S CHRIS O'NEILL-YATES
EXAMINES HIS CORROSIVE COMEBACK.
>> IT'S NOT A RACIST JOKE.
>> Reporter: LOUIS C.K. WAS
ALWAYS KNOWN FOR HIS
TAKE-NO-PRISONERS COMEDY BUT HIS
AUDIO RECORDING OF HIS RECENT
SET AT A LONG ISLAND CLUB SEEMS
TO GO FURTHER.
HE MOCKS TRANSGENDER PEOPLE AND
PEOPLE WITH DEVELOPMENTAL
CHALLENGES.
HE ALSO LASHES
OUT AT PARKLAND STUDENTS FOR
MOUNTING A GUN CONTROL CAMPAIGN
AND TESTIFYING BEFORE CONGRESS
AFTER 17 PEOPLE WERE KILLED AT A
SCHOOL SHOOTING.
>> YOU'RE NOT INTERESTING
BECAUSE YOU WENT TO A HIGH
SCHOOL WHERE A KID GOT SHOT.
WHY DID THAT MEAN I HAVE TO
LISTEN TO YOU?
HOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU
INTERESTING, YOU DIDN'T GET
SHOT, YOU PUSHED SOME FAT KID
IN THE WAY AND NOW I GOTTA
LISTEN TO YOU TALKING?
>> Reporter: FOR THOSE WHO
LOST FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES,
LOUIS C.K.'S COMMITMENT RANG
HOLLOW.
>> HE'S PRETTY MUCH LIKE, THESE
STORIES ARE TRUE, I APOLOGISE,
AND I'LL
STEP BACK AND LISTEN.
AND THE PROBLEM IS THAT HE
DIDN'T MAKE AN ACTUAL GENUINE
EFFORT TO LISTEN.
>> Reporter: RYAN IS A
SURVIVOR OF THE SHOOTING AND AN
ANTI-GUN ACTIVIST AND TWEETED
"IT'S A SHAME WHEN YOU SINK SO
LOW THAT YOUR COMEBACK PLAN IS
TO MAKE FUN OF SCHOOL SURVIVORS
FOR SPEAKING OUT."
AND FRED GUTTENBERG TWEETED "TO
ANYONE WHO KNOWS LOUIS C.K.,
PLEASE DELIVER THIS MESSAGE FOR
ME.
MY DAUGHTER WAS KILLED IN THE
PARKLAND SHOOTING.
MY SON RAN AWAY FROM THE
BULLETS.
MY WIFE AND I DEAL WITH LOSS
EVERY DAY.
WHY DON'T YOU COME TO MY HOUSE
AND TRY OUT YOUR NEW PATHETIC
JOKES."
IF THIS IS AN IDEA OF A COME
DEGREE BACK, IT'S NOT FUNNY.
>> WHERE IS THE JOKE?
THAT'S WHAT NO ONE IS ABLE TO
EXPLAIN TO ME AT THIS POINT.
THERE'S NO JOKE.
IT'S JUST SOMEONE WHO IS UPSET
BECAUSE PEOPLE CAME OUT OF A
TRAGEDY AND THEY HAVE BECOME
CIVICALLY ENGAGED?
IS THAT WHAT THE JOKE IS?
>> Reporter: BUT LOUIS C.K.
SEEMS TO SAY THAT HE
REALLY CAN'T SINK ANY FURTHER.
>> WHAT ARE YOU, GONNA TAKE AWAY
MY BIRTHDAY IN MY LIFE IS OVER,
I DON'T GIVE A...
YOU CAN BE OFFENDED, IT'S OKAY.
YOU CAN GET MAD AT ME.
>> Reporter: JUDGING FROM ALL
OF THE LAUGHTER, THE CROWD LOVED
IT.
CHRIS O'NEILL-YATES, CBC NEWS,
VANCOUVER.
>> Rosemary: YOU MAY REMEMBER
THAT IN RESPONSE TO THE PARKLAND
SCHOOL SHOOTING THAT DONALD
TRUMP SUGGESTED ARMING TEACHERS
TO PROTECT DEFENSELESS STUDENTS
AND STAFF.
WE SENT OUR PHOTOJOURNALIST
LEONARDO PALLEJA TO WHERE
TEACHERS ARE TAUGHT TO USE A GUN
IN AN EMERGENCY.
THIS IS WHAT HE SAW "BEHIND THE
LENS."
>> I THINK THAT IT'S THAT MOMENT
WHEN THE PICTURE TELLS THE WHOLE
STORY.
(gunshots)
POLICE FIRE, POLICE FIRE.
>> SO THE ONE THAT I REMEMBER
REALLY WELL VIVIDLY IS THE ONE
THAT WE SHOT IN ARLINGTON,
TEXAS.
IT WAS JUST AFTER THE SHOOTING
IN PARKLAND IN FLORIDA.
MAYBE LESS THAN 10 DAYS AFTER
THAT WE WERE AT AN ACADEMY WHICH
WAS TRAINING TEACHERS TO CARRY
FIREARMS IN CLASSROOMS.
SO THESE TEACHERS HAD TO FACE
THESE SHOOTERS THAT WERE COMING
TO THE CLASSROOM AND THEY WERE
SHOOTING WITH TRAINING ROUNDS
THAT WERE 10 TIMES MORE POWERFUL
THAN A PAINTBALL GUN.
SO IF THEY HIT YOU, THEY HURT.
THE ONE TEACHER'S NAME WAS DAZEY
AND WE FOLLOWING HER SINCE THE
BEGINNING OF THE TRAINING.
THERE WAS THIS MOMENT WHEN THIS
SHOOTER ENTERS THROUGH THE DOOR
OF THE CLASSROOM AND SHE FACES
HIM.
>> GO, GO, GO!
(gunshots).
>> GET OVER IN THE CORNER.
PUT CHAIRS IN FRONT OF YOU.
>> SHE TRIES TO SHOOT BUT SHE
CAN'T AND SHE FUMBLES THE GUN
AND SHE IS NOW PROTECTING
HERSELF WITH ONE OF HER HANDS.
AND SO YOU THINK HOW THAT MAKES
NO SENSE.
FOR ME TO SEE HER FACE, HER
EXPRESSION, I NEEDED TO BE
THERE.
I WASN'T EVEN THINKING THAT I
COULD BE SHOT AT, WHICH I WAS.
BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER, RIGHT,
WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO GET THE
SHOT, THAT'S WHAT MATTERS MOST.
YEAH, THERE'S PRESSURE TO DO IT
AS WELL AND WITH THE PRESSURE,
YOU KNOW, I KIND OF WELCOMED
THAT FEELING THAT THIS PRESSURE
TO GET THIS POTENTIALLY GREAT
MOMENT.
>> Rosemary: WE'LL HAVE TO
TAKE A SHORT BREAK BUT UP NEXT,
A LOOK BACK AT SOME OF THE
MOMENTS THAT SHAPED THE YEAR,
FROM A WEDDING THAT PUT A ROYAL
TOUCH ON HOLLYWOOD, YEAH, YOU
KNOW WHICH ONE.
TO THE EXPERIENCE OF SURVIVING A
MONSTER TORNADO IN EASTERN
ONTARIO.
>> MY DAUGHTER WAS IN THE AIR,
THAT'S OUR UNIT OVER THERE.
AND WHEN IT RIPPED OUR ROOF, MY
DAUGHTER, SHE WENT FLYING UP AND
I'M HOLDING HER HAND...
(*)
(*)
>> Rosemary: TONIGHT WE'RE
TAKING STOCK OF THE HISTORY THAT
WE WITNESSED IN 2018.
IN SOME WAYS IT WAS A YEAR OF
EXTREMES FROM WEATHER TO
UNSPEAKABLE VIOLENCE.
BUT THERE WERE ALSO MOMENTS OF
JOY AND VICTORY, NOT TO MENTION
ROMANCE.
HERE'S OUR "REWIND 2018".

>> Reporter: THE MELTING POLAR
ICE... THE DROUGHTS... THE
MEGA-STORMS.
CLIMATE SCIENTISTS SAY THEY'RE
ALREADY THE RESULTS OF THE GLOBE
WARMING BY ONE DEGREE SINCE THE
INDUSTRIAL AGE.
IN THEIR REPORT TODAY SCIENTISTS
WITH THE U.N.'S
INTERGOVERNMENTAL PANEL ON
CLIMATE CHANGE ISSUED A DIRE
WARNING THAT THE EARTH CAN ONLY
HANDLE ANOTHER HALF DEGREE MORE.
>> FOR DIFFERENT REGIONS AND FOR
EXTREMES AND FOR ECOSYSTEMS,
LIVELIHOODS, IT'S VERY CLEAR
THAT HALF A DEGREE MATTERS.
>> AT 4:40 p.m. IT HIT
DUNROBIN, A SEMIRURAL COMMUNITY
35 KILOMETRES WEST OF DOWNTOWN
OTTAWA.
>> MY DAUGHTER WAS IN THE AIR.
THAT'S OUR UNIT OVER THERE.
AND WHEN IT RIPPED OUR ROOF MY
DAUGHTER, SHE WENT FLYING UP AND
I AM HOLDING HER HAND.
>> Reporter: JUST IMAGINE FIRE
ON EITHER SIDE OF THE ROAD,
FLAMES LICKING THE UNDERCARRIAGE
OF YOUR CAR AND THEN YOUR CAR
DIES.
>> Reporter: WITH HUNDREDS OF
FIRES BURNING ACROSS THE
PROVINCE THE B.C. GOVERNMENT HAS
DECLARED A PROVINCIAL STATE OF
EMERGENCY.
>> THE MUDSLIDES SURROUNDED MY
CAR AS I WAS DRIVING.
>> I LOOKED OVER AT THE RIVER
AND THE TREES ARE GOING DOWN.
>> Reporter: GIVES YOU A SENSE
OF THE RISING WATERS ALREADY.
WE WERE HERE YESTERDAY AND THIS
WAS BASICALLY
A PARKING LOT.
IT GETS DEEPER WITH EVERY STEP.
>> Reporter: FAR NORTH OF THE
PHILIPPINES RAGING WATERS SWEPT
AWAY TREES AND ROADS, FLOODING
WAS ALSO WIDESPREAD IN HONG KONG
AND ACROSS SOUTHERN CHINA.
>> Reporter: THE DAMS FEEDING
CAPE TOWN'S WATER GRID ARE NOW
LESS THAN A QUARTER FULL.
AND PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TOLD TO
LIMIT WHAT THEY USE FROM THE
TAPS TO 50 LITRES PER PERSON PER
DAY.
OR TO WATCH THE CITY RUN DRY.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR A
COUNTRY LIKE SOUTH AFRICA TO
HAVE A CITY OF CAPE TOWN ON THE
VERGE OF LOSING ITS WATER?
>> IT'S A TOTAL DISASTER FOR US
AND IT SHOWS THE NEGATIVE IMPACT
OF CLIMATE CHANGE.
>> SO SOMETIMES WE THINK THAT
IT'S SO COLD THIS WINTER AND HOW
COULD THE PLANET BE WARM
-- WARMING, BUT THE GLACIERS ARE
TELLING US, YES, OVER TIME WE
HAVE A WARMING PLANET.

POPULATION HERE.

ASSESSING THE CARNAGE.
THE VICTIMS STILL HERE TOO.

OF TERROR AND TRAGEDY.

SHOCK AND UNTHINKABLE HEARTACHE.
THIS TRAGEDY HAS DEVASTATED OUR
FAMILIES, OUR HUMBOLDT BRONCOS'
ORGINISATION AND OUR COMMUNITY,
SASKATCHEWAN, CANADA, AND OUR
WORLD.
>> HOW MANY OF THEM ARE YOU?
13?
BRILLIANT.
>> Reporter: AFTER DAYS
SEARCHING THROUGH DARK FLOODED
CHAMBERS THIS WAS THE MOMENT
THAT RESCUERS FOUND THE ENTIRE
SOCCER TEAM ALIVE.
THE BOYS AND THEIR COACH WENT
INTO THE CAVE AS PART OF A TEAM
OUTING BUT HEAVY RAIN FLOODED
THE WAY OUT, TRAPPING THEM DEEP
INSIDE.
RESCUE CREWS, INCLUDING THOSE
FROM THE U.K., CHINA, AND THE
U.S., HAD BEEN PAINSTAKINGLY
SEARCHING IN THE TREACHEROUS
CONDITIONS.

HOWEVER, THAT CHANGED AS OF
ABOUT FOUR HOURS AGO.

CAMERA THEN PICKED THEM UP ON A
STROLL.
THEY MADE THEIR WAY TO A NEARBY
PARK WHERE AN EYEWITNESS NOTICED
THEY COLLAPSED ON A BENCH AFTER
WHAT POLICE SAID WAS A SUSPECTED
EXPOSURE TO AN UNKNOWN
SUBSTANCE.

SKRIPAL.

>> Reporter: MANY BELIEVED
THIS DAY WOULD NEVER ARRIVE.
DONALD TRUMP HATED NAFTA AND
RELIED ON HIS COUNTRY'S SIZE,
MIGHT, AND USED THE THREAT OF
TARIFFS TO GET WHAT HE WANTED AT
THE NEGOTIATING TABLE.
>> President Donald Trump: BY
THE WAY, WITHOUT TARIFFS WE
WOULDN'T BE TALKING ABOUT THE
DEAL.
JUST FOR THOSE BABIES OUT THERE

ALIVE, THE PRIME MINISTER KNEW

NORTH AMERICA IS IN A MUCH MORE
STABLE PLACE THAN IT WAS

ECONOMIC RIPPLE EFFECT WILL BE
FELT FAR BEYOND GENERAL MOTORS.
>> I HAVE BEEN THROUGH A CLOSURE
IN LONDON AND I MOVED MY FAMILY

FOR US IT'S A DESPERATE NO MAN'S
LAND SEPARATING THE HOT AND
HUMID INSECT TYRANNY THAT WE IS

ABOUT TO CLUB US OVER THE HEAD.
WINTER IS COMING.

10% POSSIBILITY THAT THERE IS A
HELL.

I'M IMPATIENT WITH A WASTE OF
TIME.
THERE IS SO MUCH THAT I WANT TO

BOSTON CRIME SCENE

OF COMICS, THE CHARISMATIC MAN
BEHIND THE MARVEL UNIVERSE, THE
FACE OF MARVEL FOR SO MANY
DECADES.

TO 2018 IN SOME PARTS OF THE

2019.
OUR "MOMENT OF THE DAY" IS A
CANADIAN WHO WANTED TO CELEBRATE
SO BADLY THAT HE WENT THE

YOU CAN CATCH FIREWORKS ACROSS
COUNTRY ON CBC TELEVISION RIGHT
AFTER "THE NATIONAL" ON OUR NEW
YEAR'S COUNTDOWN.
BUT, FIRST, THERE'S ANOTHER
PLACE FAR AWAY THAT ALSO HAS A
REPUTATION FOR A CELEBRATION.
ONE OF 9 FIRST PLACES IN FACT ON
EARTH TO RING IN
IS SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA AND THEY
ALWAYS DO IT IN A REALLY BIG
WAY.
WE TRACKED DOWN AN ONTARIO MAN
WHO IS TRAVELLING THE WORLD WITH
HIS WIFE AND THEY WERE THERE FOR
THE MIDNIGHT SPECTACLE.
HERE'S CORY WINDOVER WITH OUR
"MOMENT OF THE DAY."
[Cheers and Applause]
(*)
>> IT'S ONLY 12 MINUTES BUT IT'S
PRETTY SPECTACULAR.
WE WENT DOWN TO THE HARBOUR
FRONT WHERE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE
WERE DOWN THERE AND THEY CLOSE
OFF ALL OF THE STREETS AND THEY
PUT ON A BIG FIREWORKS DISPLAY
OVER THE OPERA HOUSE.
AND IT WAS SOMETHING ELSE FOR
SURE.
IT'S INTERESTING TO BE, YOU
KNOW, SO FAR AHEAD OF EVERYBODY
ELSE RIGHT NOW.
I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M GOING TO GO
BACK TO REAL LIFE.
2019.
>> Rosemary: THIS IS REAL
LIFE, IT AIN'T SO BAD.
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL" FOR THIS
MONDAY, THE LAST DAY OF 2018.
HAPPY NEW YEAR.
I HOPE THAT 2019 IS GOOD TO YOU.
