The National for April 1, 2019 - Climate Change Report, Carbon Tax, Brexit

(*)
>> Rosemary: TONIGHT A DIRE
WARNING FOR CANADA'S CLIMATE.
THE COUNTRY IS WARMING TWICE AS
FAST AS THE REST OF THE WORLD.
>> WE NEED TO TAKE ACTION ON
CLIMATE CHANGE.
>> Rosemary: JUST AS THE
LIBERAL CARBON TAX HITS FOUR
PROVINCES.
WE BREAK IT DOWN.
(*)
>> I... I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT I
SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM CAUCUS.
>> Rosemary: SHE'S STILL A
LIBERAL BUT FOR HOW LONG?
>> WE HAVE A REAL PROBLEM THAT I
DON'T FEEL SAFE IN CAUCUS.
>> Rosemary: INSIDE THE PARTY
MOUNTING PRESSURE
TO REMOVE JODY WILSON-RAYBOULD
AND JANE PHILPOTT.
(*)
>> IT'S HEARTBREAKING BECAUSE IT
IS ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE.
>> Ian: SOAKED YOUR iPHONE?
APPLE MAY TELL YOU THAT YOUR
PHOTOS AND DATA ARE LOST
FOREVER.
BUT IS IT TRUE?
>>> THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
(*)
>> Rosemary: ACCORDING TO
VIRTUALLY EVERY CLIMATE
SCIENTIST,
CLIMATE CHANGE IS ALREADY HERE.
TEMPERATURES HAVE RISEN AND ARE
EXPECTED TO KEEP RISING WITH
DRAMATIC AND INCREASINGLY
DISASTROUS IMPACTS.
AND TODAY WE ARE LEARNING THAT
IN CANADA THAT GOES DOUBLE.
A GOVERNMENT REPORT FROM
ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE
CANADA, YEARS IN THE MAKING,
CONFIRMS THAT CANADA IS WARMING
AT TWICE THE RATE OF THE REST OF
THE WORLD.
FAR FROM BEING A SAFE HAVEN,
CANADA HAS BEEN DIRECTLY IN THE
CLIMATE CROSSHAIRS AND BARRING
DRASTIC GLOBAL ACTION MORE IS
COMING.
TODAY THE GOVERNMENT IMPOSED A
CARBON TAX ON FOUR PROVINCES,
REPRESENTING JUST UNDER HALF OF
CANADA'S POPULATION.
PART OF THE LIBERAL PLAN TO
COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE.
YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT THAT IN A
MOMENT.
BUT, FIRST, SALIMAH SHIVJI HAS
THE DETAILS OF TODAY'S CLIMATE
REPORT.
>> Reporter: THE COMPREHENSIVE
REPORT LAYING OUT THE STARK
REALITY.
THESE MAJESTIC GLACIERS ARE
THINNING RAPIDLY.
THE ICE IS DISAPPEARING, ALL
BECAUSE CANADA IS GETTING MUCH
WARMER, ESPECIALLY IN THE WINTER
WITH THE HIGHEST RATES OF
WARMING SEEN IN THE PRAIRIES AND
NORTHERN B.C. AND ESPECIALLY THE
ARCTIC.
WHERE IT'S 2.3-DEGREES WARMER ON
AVERAGE THAN IT WAS ABOUT 70
YEARS AGO.
THE REST OF THE COUNTRY IS
1.7-DEGREES WARMER, TWICE THE
GLOBAL AVERAGE.
THAT MEANS THAT MORE RAIN, STORM
SURGES... SEA LEVELS RISING, ALL
OF WHICH TRANSLATES INTO MORE
CHANCES OF DEVASTATING FLOODING.
EXPECT DROUGHTS LEADING TO
FOREST FIRES.
MUCH OF THIS DAMAGE THE REPORT
SAYS DRIVEN BY HUMAN ACTIVITY.
AND LARGELY IRREVERSIBLE.
>> OUR WARMING IS MODIFIED.
THE SNOW AND SEA ICE LOSS WILL
REDUCE.
FOR GLACIERS, THIS IS NOT THE
CASE.
THEY ARE A SLOW RESPONSE OF THE
CLIMATE SYSTEM.
>> Reporter: THE AUTHORS ARE
BANKING ON THE SCIENCE, SOUNDING
THE ALARM OF JUST HOW BAD IT
COULD GET.
>> WE ARE ON A WARMING
TRAJECTORY AND WE'RE LOOKING AT
WARM OR WARMER WHICH MEANS THAT
THERE ARE CHOICES AHEAD OF US IN
TERMS OF WHERE TO PLACE OUR
EFFORTS.
>> Reporter: FOR SOME, THIS IS
CONFIRMATION ABOUT WHAT WAS
ALREADY SUSPECTED.
>> THEREFORE, WE HAVE TO ADAPT,
WE HAVE TO PREPARE FOR THIS.
WE HAVE TO PREPARE OUR HOMES,
OUR CITIES, EXISTING CITIES, NEW
CITIES TO BE BUILT.
WE HAVE TO BUILD THEM IN SUCH A
WAY THAT WE ANTICIPATE FLOODING.
THAT WE ANTICIPATE FIRES.
THAT WE ANTICIPATE EXTREME HEAT.
>> Reporter: THE REPORT MODELS
POSSIBLE FUTURES, BUT IT DOESN'T
SET OUT A PATH FOR HOW TO STOP
THE WARMING.
>> THE SCIENCE IS VERY CLEAR, IT
IS VERY DETAILED AND POWERFUL.
AND NOW THE POLITICAL
DECISIONMAKERS HAVE TO RESPOND.
CANADA HAS NEVER MET A CLIMATE
TARGET IT HAS SET.
IT HAS BEEN SETTING CLIMATE
TARGETS SINCE 1992 AND HAS
MISSED EVERY ONE.
>> Reporter: SHE SAYS THAT SO
FAR WE'RE ON TRACK TO MISS
ANOTHER ONE.
SALIMAH SHIVJI, CBC NEWS,
OTTAWA.
>> Rosemary: NOW ON THE SAME
DAY THAT SERIOUS CLIMATE REPORT
WAS MADE PUBLIC, A TRUDEAU
GOVERNMENT POLICY BILLED AS PART
OF A CLIMATE SOLUTION KICKED IN
IN FOUR PROVINCES AND PEOPLE
HAVE ALREADY NOTICED AT THE
PUMPS.
>> A CARBON TAX, RIGHT?
>> YES.
>> WHICH IS NOT FAIR IN MY
OPINION.
>> A CARBON TAX?
ABSOLUTELY SERIOUS.
>> I ACTUALLY DIDN'T REALIZE HOW
MUCH DIFFERENCE THERE WOULD BE
BETWEEN YESTERDAY AND TODAY.
>> Rosemary: AS PART OF A
NATIONAL PLAN TO PUT A PRICE ON
CARBON, THE TRUDEAU GOVERNMENT
IMPOSED ITS FEDERAL CARBON TAX
ON
PROVINCIAL HOLDOUTS THAT DON'T
HAVE THEIR OWN PLANS,
SASKATCHEWAN, MANITOBA, ONTARIO
AND NEW BRUNSWICK.
IT STARTS AT $20 PER TONNE.
FOR GAS THAT MEANS AN EXTRA 4.4
CENTS PER LITRE.
BUT THE TAX RATCHETS UP EVERY
YEAR UNTIL 2022 WHEN IT MORE
THAN DOUBLES.
AND THE COST ON FOSSIL FUELS
WILL ALSO FILTER DOWN TO ALL
KINDS OF PRODUCTS.
THERE'S A TAX REBATE DESIGNED TO
OFFSET THOSE COSTS, BUT FOR
THOSE GASSING UP TODAY THE
STICKER SHOCK IS REAL.
>> MY INCOME REALLY HASN'T
CHANGED SO I WILL DEFINITELY
NOTICE IT.
>> Rosemary: SO HOW IS THE
CARBON TAX AND THE REBATE FOR
THAT MATTER SUPPOSED TO WORK?
PETER ARMSTRONG GIVES US THE
NUTS AND BOLTS.
>> Reporter: THE WHOLE IDEA
HERE IS TO USE PRICING TO CHANGE
BEHAVIOUR, SOMETHING THAT
ALREADY HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.
>> WHEN ONE VACATION COSTS MORE
WE LOOK AT OTHERS.
WHEN ONE KIND OF VEGETABLE COSTS
MORE BECAUSE OF A PRICE SPIKE,
WE LOOK FOR ALTERNATIVES.
>> Reporter: IN THIS CASE IT'S
THE PRICE OF GOODS AND SERVICES
THAT CAUSE GREENHOUSE GAS
EMISSIONS.
GAS FOR YOUR CAR, HOME HEATING
FUEL, NATURAL GAS.
CONSIDER THE COST OF GASOLINE.
THE BESTSELLING VEHICLE IN
CANADA IS THE FORD F-SERIES
PICKUP TRUCK.
A CARBON TAX MEANS AN EXTRA
$3.80 TO FILL IT UP.
FOR THE BESTSELLING CAR, TACK ON
ANOTHER $1.98 PER FILLUP.
THAT'S THE COST, BUT, REMEMBER,
THE GOVERNMENT WILL SEND MONEY
BACK TO FAMILIES AS WELL.
(*)
IMAGINE A BAR WHERE THE PRICE OF
A CERTAIN BEER GOES UP BY $5 BUT
THE BAR IS GIVING OUT $5 BILLS.
YOU CAN STILL BUY THAT MORE
EXPENSIVE BEER AND USE THE
REBATE TO COVER THE ADDITIONAL
EXPENSE OR YOU CAN POCKET THE $5
AND BUY A DIFFERENT, LESS
EXPENSIVE BEER.
IT'S THE SAME PREMISE WITH THE
CARBON TAX REBATE.
A HIGHER PRICE BUT A CHANCE TO
POCKET EXTRA CASH IF CONSUMERS
FIND A CHEAPER WAY TO GET AROUND
OR HEAT THEIR HOMES OR
BUSINESSES.
(*)
BUT WHAT CHOICES DO CONSUMERS
REALLY HAVE?
WELL, THEY COULD BUY A MORE FUEL
EFFICIENT CAR OR FURNACE.
SOME COULD USE MORE PUBLIC
TRANSIT.
>> BUT THE WHOLE POINT IS NOT TO
BE PRESCRIPTIVE.
IT'S NOT TO DETERMINE IN THE
ROOMS OF GOVERNMENT WHICH IS THE
RIGHT WAY FOR EACH OF US TO
REDUCE OUR EMISSIONS.
>> Reporter: THAT REBATE
VARIES ACROSS CANADA BUT THE
PROJECTED COST IS LESS THAN THE
REBATE IN EVERY SCENARIO.
AND ADVOCATES SAY THAT THE MATH
HAS ALREADY BEEN BORNE OUT.
BRITISH COLUMBIA HAS HAD A
CARBON TAX IN PLACE FOR MORE
THAN A DECADE.
ITS ECONOMIC GROWTH IS THE BEST
IN CANADA.
PEOPLE ARE DRIVING MORE FUEL
EFFICIENT CARS AND THEY'RE
DRIVING LESS.
AND SINCE B.C.'S CARBON TAX WAS
INTRODUCED IN 2008, EMISSIONS
HAVE FALLEN UP TO 15% FROM WHERE
THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN.
PETER ARMSTRONG, CBC NEWS,
TORONTO.
>> Rosemary: NOW FOR THE
POLITICS.
FOR THE FOUR PROVINCES HIT WITH
A FRESH TAX IN AN ELECTION YEAR
THIS IS GOOD WEDGE POLITICS FOR
BOTH SIDES.
BOTH PROVINCIALLY AND BOTH
FEDERALLY.
THE CONSERVATIVES SEE SOME
OPPORTUNITY.
THE FOUR PROVINCES HIT BY THE
CARBON TAX TODAY ARE ALL RUN BY
CONSERVATIVE PREMIERS.
ALL OPPOSE THE TAX.
ONTARIO AND SASKATCHEWAN ARE
ACTUALLY FIGHTING IT IN THE
COURTS.
>> IT DOESN'T WORK.
IT TAXES OUR JOBS AND IT TAXES
OUR FAMILIES.
>> OUR GOVERNMENT IS GOING TO
FIGHT THE TRUDEAU LIBERAL CARBON
TAX WITH EVERY TOOL AT OUR
DISPOSAL.
>> Rosemary: AND NATIONALLY
THE LIBERALS MAY HAVE JUST GIVEN
THE OPPOSITION AN ELECTION YEAR
APPLAUSE LINE.
>> Andrew Scheer: MY FIRST
ACT AS PRIME MINISTER WILL BE
TO SCRAP JUSTIN TRUDEAU'S CARBON
TAX.
[Cheers and Applause]
>> Rosemary: BUT ON THE
FLIPSIDE, LIBERALS MAY WELCOME
THE FIGHT ON THE ENVIRONMENT.
>> Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau: POLLUTION HAS BEEN
FREE.
WE NEED TO PUT A PRICE ON IT.
>> Rosemary: THE CARBON TAX IS
A POTENTIAL WINNER FOR VOTERS
WHO CARE ABOUT CLIMATE, NOT TO
MENTION THE STARK CONTRAST WITH
THOSE WHO YET TO ANNOUNCE A
PLAN.
>> WE'RE FOCUSED, FRANKLY, ON
CANADIANS -- CANADIANS WHOSE
HOUSES ARE FLOODED AND WHO ARE
IMPACTED BY EXTREME HEAT.
YOU KNOW, WHO ARE CONCERNED
ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE AND WANT TO
DO THEIR PART AND WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT IT'S DONE IN A WAY
THAT ACTUALLY WORKS.
>> Rosemary: AND WITH THE
S.N.C. AFFAIR ON A ROLLING BOIL,
THE LIBERALS MAY VIEW ANY CHANGE
OF SUBJECT AS A GOOD THING.
BUT AS YOU CAN IMAGINE S.N.C.
REMAINED IN THE HEADLINES AGAIN
TODAY.
AS JODY WILSON-RAYBOULD MADE IT
CLEAR THAT SHE BELIEVES THAT
SHE SHOULD REMAIN IN LIBERAL
CAUCUS.
HERE'S A LOOK AT PARLIAMENT
TONIGHT WHERE SOME OF HER
COLLEAGUES HAVE BEEN CLAMOURING
TO REMOVE HER.
KATIE SIMPSON TAKES US INSIDE OF
THE TUMULTUOUS PARTY POLITICS.
>> Reporter: A DEFIANT JODY
WILSON-RAYBOULD IS STANDING BY
HER ACTIONS AND HER PARTY.
>> I... DO NOT BELIEVE THAT I
SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM CAUCUS
FOR DOING MY JOB AND DOING WHAT
I BELIEVE IS RIGHT.
>> Reporter: WHAT IS RIGHT,
SHE SAYS, WAS HER CONTROVERSIAL
DECISION TO SECRETLY RECORD A
CONVERSATION BETWEEN HER AND THE
CLERK OF THE PRIVY COUNCIL.
>> I BELIEVE THAT IT WAS A
REASONABLE, RATIONAL THING TO DO
IN AN UNREASONABLE AND
IRRATIONAL SITUATION.
>> Reporter: BUT SOME OF HER
COLLEAGUES COULD NOT DISAGREE
MORE AND MOMENTUM IS BUILDING
FOR HER TO BE KICKED OUT OF
CAUCUS.
>> THE REVELATION OF HER
RECORDED CONVERSATION ON FRIDAY
WAS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING TO
ME.
WE HAVE A REAL PROBLEM THAT I
DON'T FEEL SAFE IN CAUCUS.
SO I WOULD WANT CAUCUS TO ACT.
>> JODY WILSON-RAYBOULD SHOULD
BE GONE, GONE.
SHOULD HAVE BEEN GONE A LONG
TIME AGO.
>> Reporter: SOURCES TELL CBC
NEWS THAT HIGH LEVEL CAUCUS AND
MEETINGS ARE TAKING
PLACE TO DECIDE IF
WILSON-RAYBOULD AND JANE
PHILPOTT CAN REMAIN LIBERALS.
>> I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE FORWARD
WITH THE MUNICIPAL POLITICS AND
MISS WILSON-RAYBOULD IN OUR
CAUCUS AS CONTRIBUTORS, WELCOME,
AND MOVING FORWARD WITH US TO
TALK ABOUT HOW WE CAN CONTINUE
THE WORK THAT WE'RE DOING.
>> I'M PERFECTLY PREPARED TO
HAVE THEM COME BEFORE CAUCUS, TO
GIVE AN EXPLANATION, AND IF THEY
CAN PERSUADE CAUCUS TO STAY, AT
THIS POINT I DON'T SEE HOW THAT
WOULD HAPPEN.
>> Reporter: THE IN-FIGHTING
CONTINUES TO BE A GIFT FOR THE
OPPOSITION.
>> I WILL BE DOING A MARATHON
SPEECH DEMANDING THE GOVERNMENT
END ITS COVER-UP OF THE
SNC-LAVALIN CORRUPTION SCANDAL.
>> Reporter: THE CONSERVATIVES
ARE NOW STAGING A MULTI-DAY
FILIBUSTER TO PRESSURE THE
GOVERNMENT INTO REOPENING THE
JUSTICE COMMITTEE'S
INVESTIGATION INTO THIS WHOLE
AFFAIR.
>> WE ARE GOING TO USE EVERY
TOOL IN THE PARLIAMENTARY
TOOLKIT TO END THE PRIME
MINISTER'S COVER-UP AND TO GET
TO THE TRUTH.
>> Rosemary: KATIE, THAT SLOW
DRIP CONTINUES INCREDIBLY.
WHAT SHOULD WE EXPECT TOMORROW,
IF ANYTHING?
>> Reporter: THERE ARE TWO
THINGS THAT CANADIANS SHOULD BE
WATCHING FOR, ROSIE.
THE FIRST IS FROM GERRY BUTTS, A
FORMER TOP ADVISOR TO THE PRIME
MINISTER.
HE SUBMITTED NEW INFORMATION TO
THE JUSTICE COMMITTEE OVER THE
WEEKEND IN RESPONSE TO WHAT JODY
WILSON-RAYBOULD HAD SUBMITTED ON
FRIDAY.
THOSE DOCUMENTS AND WHATEVER HE
SUBMITTED, THAT IS EXPECTED TO
BECOME PUBLIC TOMORROW.
THE OTHER BIG THING TO WATCH FOR
HAD TO DO WITH CAUCUS ITSELF.
LIBERAL CAUCUS MEETS EVERY
WEDNESDAY AND THOSE CAUCUS
MEMBERS NEED TO DECIDE WHETHER
JODY WILSON-RAYBOULD AND JANE
PHILPOTT ARE GOING TO BE WELCOME
IN THAT WEDNESDAY MEETING.
IF THEY DECIDE TO GIVE THEM THE
BOOT THEY MIGHT WANT TO DO IT
TOMORROW BEFORE WEDNESDAY'S BIG
MEETING.
>> Rosemary: OKAY, KATIE
SIMPSON IN OTTAWA AGAIN FOR US
TONIGHT.
THANKS, KATIE.
>> Reporter: THANKS.
>> Rosemary: ALL RIGHT, FROM
PARTY IN-FIGHTING HERE IN CANADA
LET'S GO TO POLITICAL TURMOIL IN
THE U.K.
IAN, YOU'VE GOT THE LATEST ON
BREXIT.
>> Ian: THAT'S RIGHT, ROSIE,
FAILING TO AGREE ON ANYTHING
SEEMS TO BE THE NEW NORMAL IN
BRITAIN'S PARLIAMENT.
M.P.s THERE HELD NONBINDING
VOTES ON FOUR BREXIT STRATEGIES
TODAY AND FAILED TO REACH A
MAJORITY ON ANY OF THEM.
IT DOESN'T BODE WELL.
APRIL 12th IS RIGHT AROUND THE
CORNER.
THAT IS THE DAY THAT THE U.K. IS
SUPPOSED TO LEAVE THE EUROPEAN
UNION.
AS THOMAS DAIGLE TELLS US, WHAT
HAPPENS BETWEEN NOW AND THEN IS
ANYBODY'S GUESS.
>> Reporter: THIS PLACE SURE
FEELS STUCK IN A RUT LATELY.
TODAY BRIEFLY BROUGHT SOMETHING
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
YES, THE HOUSE OF COMMONS GOT
REALLY CHEEKY.
A DOZEN CLIMATE CHANGE ACTIVISTS
STRIPPING NEARLY NAKED WHILE
M.P.s TRIED THEIR BEST TO STAY
FOCUSED ON BREXIT.
>> THE NAKED TRUTH IS,
MR. SPEAKER...
[laughter]
THAT THE 202 MEMBERS HAVE
LOYALLY VOTED FOR THE PRIME
MINISTER'S DEAL.
>> Reporter: POLICE DETAINED
THE PROTESTERS, BUT THEIR STUNT
JUST GOES TO SHOW HOW IN
PARLIAMENT NOW --
>> (Speaker of the House):
ORDER!
>> Reporter: TURMOIL RULES AND
IT SEEMS THAT ALMOST ANYTHING
GOES.
>> THIS PROCESS HAS BEEN A
SHAMBLES.
TODAY WE'VE GOT TO START TO
BRING THAT TO AN END.
>> Reporter: IN A BID TO BREAK
THE BREXIT DEADLOCK, M.P.s
HERE WERE CALLED ON TO VOTE FOR
FOUR OPTIONS, INCLUDING HOLDING
A SECOND REFERENDUM AND LEAVING
WHILE KEEPING ECONOMIC TIES TO
THE E.U.
A SO-CALLED SOFT BREXIT.
ALL AROUND WESTMINSTER IT'S THAT
LAST OPTION THAT SEEMS TO BE
GAINING MOMENTUM.
BUT THE PRIME MINISTER SHOWS NO
SIGN OF SWITCHING PLANS OR EVEN
LISTENING.
AND NEITHER DO BREXITEERS.
>> I THINK THAT THE CUSTOMS
UNION IS A BETRAYAL OF BREXIT.
>> Reporter: WHEN THE SPEAKER
EMERGED TONIGHT RESULTS IN
HAND, THE SOFT BREXIT PLAN FELL
SHORT.
>> (Speaker of the House): THE
NOS WERE 276.
SO THE NOS HAVE IT.
>> Reporter: EVERY OPTION
FAILED.
AGAIN, RAISING THE RISK THAT
BRITAIN WILL CRASH OUT WITH NO
BETTER PLAN.
>> THE FULL LEGAL POSITION IS
THAT THE U.K. WILL LEAVE THE
E.U. IN JUST 11 DAYS TIME.
>> Reporter: CONSERVATIVE NICK
BOLES GOT CHOKED UP, ACCUSING
THE TORIES OF BEING UNWILLING TO
COMPROMISE.
>> I CAN NO LONGER SIT FOR THIS
PART.
>> Reporter: A THEATRICAL
ENDING TO ANOTHER DAY OF HIGH
DRAMA.
THOMAS DAIGLE, CBC NEWS, LONDON.
>> Ian: M.P.s ALSO DEBATED A
PETITION TO STOP BREXIT ALL
TOGETHER WHICH GARNISHED AN
ASTONISHING SIX MILLION
SIGNATURES.
>> PEOPLE ARE ADAMANT THAT IF WE
CAN'T SETTLE THIS IN THE HOUSE
IN A WAY THAT PROTECTS THEIR
INTERESTS, THEIR JOBS, THEIR
LIVELIHOODS, THEN THE VOTE
SHOULD BE ON THE TABLE.
>> Ian: AT ONE POINT THE VOTE
PETITION WAS GROWING AT A RATE
OF 2,000 SIGNATURES A MINUTE.
THE DEBATE WAS SYMBOLIC BUT THE
GOVERNMENT DID RESPOND "WE WILL
NOT REVOKE ARTICLE 50," THE
STATEMENT READ.
"WE WILL HONOUR THE RESULT OF
THE 2016 REFERENDUM AND WORK
WITH PARLIAMENT TO DELIVER A
DEAL THAT ENSURES THAT WE LEAVE
THE EUROPEAN UNION."
>>> HERE'S SOME OF THE OTHER
STORIES THAT WE'RE WATCHING
TONIGHT, STARTING IN NORTH
DAKOTA WHERE POLICE ARE LOOKING
FOR A SUSPECT AFTER FOUR PEOPLE
WERE FOUND DEAD INSIDE OF A
FAMILY-OWNED BUSINESS.
>> THIS IS VERY SAD THAT THERE'S
PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD THAT WOULD
DO SOMETHING OF WHAT WE HAD TO
EXPERIENCE TODAY.
>> Ian: OFFICERS WERE CALLED TO
THE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY
THIS MORNING AND FOUND THREE MEN
AND A WOMAN DEAD INSIDE.
THEY'RE CALLING IT AN ISOLATED
INCIDENT AND THEY DON'T BELIEVE
THAT ANYONE ELSE IS IN DANGER.
THEY'RE NOT SAYING HOW THE FOUR
DIED, ONLY THAT IT'S BEING
INVESTIGATED
AS A MULTIPLE HOMICIDE.
>>> POLICE HAVE ISSUED A
CANADA-WIDE WARRANT FOR
37-YEAR-OLD ABDULLAHI ADAN.
THEY BELIEVE THAT HE'S ONE OF
THE FOUR PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THE
KIDNAPPING OF 22-YEAR-OLD
INTERNATIONAL STUDENT WANZHEN
LU.
>> MOTIVE IS PART OF THIS
ONGOING INVESTIGATION AND WE'RE
JUST NOT SURE WHY THIS HAD TAKEN
PLACE AT THIS POINT IN TIME.
OBVIOUSLY, OUR INVESTIGATORS
HAVE SPOKEN WITH MR. LU AND I'M
SURE HE'S PROVIDED GREAT
EVIDENCE, BUT WE DON'T THE
MOTIVE.
OUR FOCUS IS FINDING THESE
SUSPECTS.
>> Ian: THEY SAY THAT LU WAS
GRABBED FROM AN UNDERGROUND
PARKING LOT ON MARCH 23rd AND
TASERED AND THROWN IN A VAN.
THREE DAYS LATER HE WAS FOUND
ALIVE ALMOST 200 KILOMETRES FROM
WHERE HE WAS TAKEN.
>> Rosemary: STILL AHEAD ON
"THE NATIONAL"... MEET A WOMAN
WHO MADE A LIFE RESCUING DATA
FROM BROKEN iPHONES EVEN
THOUGH APPLE SAYS IT'S JUST NOT
POSSIBLE.
>> Ian: AND EXCLUSIVE DETAILS
ON HOW TECHNOLOGY WITH A
CANADIAN CONNECTION IS MAKING
INTERNATIONAL FLYING SAFER.
>> Rosemary: PLUS, AN
INCREDIBLE STORY FROM B.C.
A MOTHER PLAYS OPEN THE JAWS OF
A COUGAR TO SAVE HER SON AND DAD
TELLS THE STORY.
>> BY THAT POINT IT HAD LATCHED
ON TO HIS FOREARM AND IT
OBVIOUSLY WASN'T LETTING GO.
AND SO SHE JUMPED AT IT AND
SHE'S TRYING TO PRY ITS MOUTH
OFF.
>> Rosemary: THAT'S WHAT MOMS
DO.
HOW IT ALL WENT DOWN STILL
AHEAD.
(*)
>> Ian: A LEAP IN TECHNOLOGY
WITH A BOOST FROM A CANADIAN
COMPANY IS PROMISING TO MAKE
TRANSATLANTIC AIRLINE FLIGHTS A
LITTLE SHORTER, A LITTLE LESS
EXPENSIVE AND A LITTLE SAFER.
A NETWORK OF 66 SATELLITES IS
ALLOWING AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS
TO TRACK PLANES WITH MORE
ACCURACY THAN EVER BEFORE.
THE OFFICIAL UNVEILING WILL BE
ANNOUNCED IN WASHINGTON, D.C.,
TOMORROW, BUT WE HAVE THE
EXCLUSIVE DETAILS TONIGHT.
IT MAY NOT LOOK LIKE IT, BUT
WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THIS ROOM,
THE GANDER NEWFOUNDLAND AIR
TRAFFIC CONTROL CENTRE, IS A
HISTORIC ADVANCE FOR AVIATION.
>> 18815, DELTA 33.
>> Ian: FOR THE FIRST TIME
ANYWHERE, THESE CONTROLLERS KNOW
THE EXACT LOCATION OF ALL OF THE
PLANES ON THESE SCREENS.
EVEN JETS HALFWAY ACROSS THE
ATLANTIC.
YOU MAY BE SURPRISED BY THIS,
BUT INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS ARE
OFTEN BEYOND THE REACH OF GROUND
RADAR STATIONS.
IN THOSE PLACES, AND THAT'S
ABOUT 70% OF THE WORLD, THE
PLANES UPDATE THEIR LOCATIONS
ONLY EVERY 10 TO 15 MINUTES.
AND BECAUSE OF THAT LACK OF
DETAIL, FLIGHTS ARE KEPT FAR
APART IN THE SKY, UP TO 160
KILOMETRES.
>> IGNITION, LIFTOFF OF THE
FALCON 9.
>> Ian: ALL OF THAT CHANGED WITH
A SERIES OF SPACEX ROCKET
LAUNCHES, INCLUDING THIS ONE
LAST JANUARY.
PLACING 66 SATELLITES IN LOW
EARTH ORBIT.
THOSE SATELLITES ARE POWERING A
NEW NAVIGATION NETWORK CALLED
AIREON, PARTLY OWNED BY NAVCAN,
A COMPANY THAT
IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AIR TRAFFIC
CONTROL.
WITH AIREON PLANES CAN
CONTINUOUSLY TRANSMIT THEIR
POSITION, ALTITUDE, DIRECTION,
SPEED, NO MATTER WHERE IN
THE WORLD THEY ARE.
THAT STREAM OF DATA IS NOW BEING
TESTED BY CONTROLLERS GUIDING
PLANES ACROSS THE NORTH
ATLANTIC.
>> YOU CAN'T UNDERESTIMATE HOW
IMPORTANT THIS IS AND HOW THIS
CHANGES HOW WE WILL APPROACH
SAFE AND EFFICIENT FLIGHT, NOT
ONLY IN CANADA, BUT AROUND THE
WORLD.
>> Ian: AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS
CAN NOW REDUCE THE SEPARATION
BETWEEN THE PLANES OVER THE
NORTH ATLANTIC TO JUST 25
KILOMETRES.
MORE EFFICIENT FLIGHT PATHS WILL
SAVE TIME AND FUEL.
AND IT'S NOT JUST PEOPLE AT
NAVCAN, THE PART OWNER AND EARLY
ADOPTER, WHO ARE EXCITED.
>> IT'S MY OPINION THAT THIS IS
AS BIG A CHANGE IN AIR TRAFFIC
TRACKING AS RADAR WAS DECADES
AGO.
>> Ian: BEYOND THE BENEFITS ON
ROUTINE FLIGHTS, WHEN THINGS GO
WRONG, PRECISE TRACKING COULD BE
LIFE-OR-DEATH.
>> IF THERE'S AN EMERGENCY
SEARCH-AND RESCUE TEAMS CAN GET
THERE AND KNOW EXACTLY WHERE
THEY WERE GOING WHERE BEFORE
THEY WERE GUESSING IN MANY
CASES.
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE IN
SEARCH-AND-RESCUE.
>> Ian: BUT EVEN IN TRAGEDIES
LIKE THE ETHIOPIAN
AIRLINES CRASH WHERE THERE WERE
NO SURVIVORS, IT WAS
AIREON THAT GAVE THE INFORMATION
ON THE FLIGHT PATH THAT WAS
AVAILABLE EVEN BEFORE THE DATA
AND THE FLIGHT RECORDERS WOULD
HAVE BEEN RECOVERED.
BUT IT IS THE ROUTINE FLIGHTS
THAT CARRY THE GREATEST BENEFIT
FOR THIS NEW SYSTEM.
NAVCAN ESTIMATES THAT AIRLINES
WILL SAVE ABOUT $400 IN FUEL FOR
EACH TRANSATLANTIC FLIGHT AND
YOU CAN MULTIPLY THAT BY UP TO
1,500 FLIGHTS A DAY.
AND SPEAKING OF MONEY, ROSEMARY,
THEY INVESTED $200 MILLION IN
THIS SYSTEM SO IT AND THE OTHER
OWNERS OF AIREON ARE HOPING THAT
AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AROUND
THE WORLD BUY IN.
>> Rosemary: SO IS THE IDEA,
IAN, THAT IF PLANES ARE TRACKED
CONTINUOUSLY AROUND THE WORLD
THAT THEY CAN'T JUST DISAPPEAR
LIKE MH-370 DID?
>> Ian: WHICH IS THE QUESTION
THAT
A LOT OF PEOPLE ASK ABOUT THIS.
FOR SOME REASON ON MH-370
SOMEBODY WANTED THAT JET TO
ESCAPE DETECTION, RIGHT?
NO RADIO CALLS WERE MADE AND THE
TRANSPONDER WAS TURNED OFF SO
THERE'S A DEVICE ON PASSENGER
JETS THAT SENDS THE DATA TO THE
AIREON SATELLITE SO IN THAT RARE
CASE, THAT ONCE-IN-A-GENERATION
CASE THAT SOMEONE WANTS TO
DISABLE THAT, PRESUMABLY THEY
COULD.
>> Rosemary: HMM, YOU'RE
REALLY
SMART ABOUT AIRPLANES, I
APPRECIATE THAT ABOUT YOU.
>>> STILL AHEAD ON "THE
NATIONAL," AS CANADA GROWS INTO
LEGALIZATION WE CHECK OUT ONE
REGION IN CALIFORNIA WHERE THEY
ARE CHANGING FROM GRAPES TO
GRASS.
>> Ian: AND APPLE SAYS IF YOUR
iPHONE WON'T TURN ON YOUR
PHOTOS AND DATA ARE LOST.
MEET THE WOMAN WHO SAYS THEY'RE
WRONG.
>> Reporter: IN YOUR
EXPERIENCE, HOW MANY PHONES
COULD BE RECOVERED?
>> 95%.
>> Ian: HOW IT WORKS NEXT.
>>> BUT FIRST...
(*)
>> Rosemary: "IN CASE YOU
MISSED IT," A 7-YEAR-OLD B.C.
BOY IS RECOVERING FROM A COUGAR
ATTACK ON FRIDAY.
HIS FATHER, KEVIN BROMLEY,
TALKED ABOUT IT TODAY.
>> HE JUST THOUGHT THAT IT WAS A
DOING, RIGHT?
DIDN'T PAY TOO MUCH ATTENTION TO
IT.
AND THEN IT CHARGED HIM, RIGHT?
HE HAD A HOODIE ON AND IT WAS
OVER HIS NECK BUT NOT OVER HIS
HEAD.
AND IT STARTED TO MAUL HIM SORT
OF THING.
AND GOT ONE ON THE CROWN.
BUT THE HOODIE KIND OF PROTECTED
THE REST OF HIS BODY.
>> Rosemary: HE DESCRIBES HIS
WIFE'S INCREDIBLE INTERVENTION
WHEN SHE SAW WHAT WAS HAPPENING.
>> BY THAT POINT IT HAD LATCHED
ON TO HIS FOREARM AND IT
OBVIOUSLY WASN'T LETTING GO.
AND SO SHE JUMPS IT AND THEN
SHE'S TRYING TO PRY ITS MOUTH
OFF OF HIM, RIGHT?
>> Rosemary: THE BOY HAS BEEN
RECOVERING AT HIS GRANDMOTHER'S.
>> THAT WAS PRETTY CLOSE AND
NEAR DEATH.
SO HE'S OLD ENOUGH TO GRASP THAT
AND THAT'S A BIG PILL TO SWALLOW
TO DIGEST THAT MENTALLY.
I MEAN, WHEN I GOT TO THE
HOSPITAL I BAWLED BECAUSE HE WAS
JUST COVERED IN BLOOD.
>> Rosemary: BUT BROMLEY IS
GRATEFUL FOR THE LEVEL OF CARE
AND HE EVEN SPARED A THOUGHT FOR
THE COUGAR.
>> IF IT WAS POACHING AND IT WAS
HUNTING WHERE SOMEONE TOOK OUT
THE MOTHER, THEN IT MAKES YOU
THINK.
BECAUSE THEN IT'S E
(*)
>> Rosemary: WE'VE ALL BEEN
THERE, THAT MOMENT OF DREAD AS
YOUR PHONE SLIPS OUT OF YOUR
HANDS, DOWN SOMEWHERE.
AND MAYBE YOU'D RATHER NOT
ADMIT.
IN A CRASH OR A SPLASH,
PRICELESS MEMORIES
GONE, NOT TO MENTION THE
HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS AS WELL.
THAT'S PRETTY MUCH WHAT HAPPENED
TO A CANADIAN
COMPANY AND PRECIOUS iPHONE
PHOTOS.
AND APPLE TOLD THEM THAT
NOTHING COULD BE DONE TO GET
THEIR DATA BACK.
BUT A REPAIR EXPERT THAT WE
FOUND SAYS THAT MOST OF THE TIME
THAT'S NOT TRUE, CLAIMING THAT
APPLE IS MISLEADING CUSTOMERS.
TERENCE McKENNA HAS BEEN
INVESTIGATING APPLE'S REPAIR
POLICIES AND BRINGS US THIS
LATEST CHAPTER.
(*)
>> Reporter: ST. JOHN'S
NEWFOUNDLAND, IS THE HOME OF
JOSEPHINE AND DAVE BILLARD.
THEY ARE AVID WORLD TRAVELLERS.
LAST YEAR THE COUPLE WAS ABLE TO
TAKE THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME,
SPENDING FIVE MONTHS ON A VOYAGE
FROM GREECE THROUGH EUROPE AND
FINISHING IN NORWAY.
OCCASIONALLY POSTING A FEW
PHOTOS TO FACEBOOK.
>> NORWAY, LOOK AT THAT, THE
FJORDS.
>> BEAUTIFUL.
>> INCREDIBLE.
>> Reporter: BUT THE BILLARDS
NEVER GOT AROUND TO BACKING UP
THE REST OF THE THOUSANDS OF
IMAGES THEY TOOK WITH THEIR
iPHONE.
>> WE HAD A LOT OF RAIN, HAVEN'T
WE?
>> Reporter: WHEN THEY GOT
BACK TO NEWFOUNDLAND LAST SUMMER
AND WENT FOR A CANOE RIDE ON
THIS POND NEAR THEIR PROPERTY,
DISASTER STRUCK.
>> WE PUSHED OFF AND YOU WERE IN
THE BOW AND MY FOOT WAS OFF
CENTRE.
I DIDN'T HIT DEAD CENTRE AND SO
WE BOTH CORRECTED THE WRONG WAY
AND OVER WE WENT.
>> SO WE FLIPPED THE CANOE.
THE PHONE WENT IN THE POND.
AND WENT RIGHT TO THE BOTTOM.
>> I WOULD SAY THAT WE WERE IN
FOUR OR FIVE FEET OF WATER.
IT'S AMAZING HOW YOUR MIND
FLICKS AUTOMATICALLY, MY DATA,
MY PHONE.
>> AND THERE WERE A LOT OF
PICTURES.
>> Reporter: IN A PANIC
JOSEPHINE CONTACTED APPLE AND
ASKED WHAT COULD BE DONE TO
RECOVER HER THOUSANDS OF
PRECIOUS PHOTOS.
>> WELL, WE WERE SHOCKED AND
SURPRISED THAT, OF COURSE, THAT
THE iPHONE PEOPLE AND APPLE
CAN'T HELP.
THEY APPEARED TO HAVE NO --
FIRST THEY HAD NO INTEREST
REALLY IN US AND THEY'D LIKE TO
SELL YOU A NEW PHONE RIGHT AWAY
BUT THEY DON'T CARE SO MUCH
ABOUT THE DATA.
AND WE WERE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT
THE DATA.
>> Reporter: JOSEPHINE VISITED
OTHER SMALL REPAIR SHOPS IN
ST. JOHN'S BUT NO ONE WAS ABLE
TO HELP HER.
FINALLY SHE VISITED THIS SMALL
COMPANY THAT GAVE HER THE NAME
OF AN EXPERT 3,000 KILOMETRES
AWAY NEAR ROCHESTER, NEW YORK.
>> I WAS VERY DOUBTFUL, BUT I
TRIED TO HAVE HOPE THAT WE WOULD
GET THEM BACK, BUT I WAS IN MY
HEART I REALLY DIDN'T THINK THAT
I WOULD EVER SEE THOSE PHOTOS,
OTHER THAN IN MY MIND'S EYE
TRUTHFULLY.
(*)
>> Reporter: IN NEW YORK 30
KILOMETRES OUTSIDE OF ROCHESTER,
THE HOME OF iPAD REHAB.
A SMALL BUSINESS RUN BY JESSA
JONES.
MANY OF HER CUSTOMERS ARE
SURPRISED TO DISCOVER THAT JESSA
HOLDS A MOLECULAR BIOLOGY PH.D
FROM THE JOHNS HOPKINS SCHOOL OF
MEDICINE.
SHE STUDIED HUMAN GENETICS.
WHEN SHE MOVED HERE AND STARTED
A FAMILY SHE SOMEHOW STARTED
FIXING iPADS AND iPHONES.
>> NOW I APPLY THE SAME SORT OF
ANALYTICAL REASONING SKILLS AND
WORKING WITH THINGS THAT ARE
REALLY, REALLY SMALL THAT HAVE
NO USER MANUAL.
SO NOW I TRY TO FIX iPHONES.
TO FIGURE OUT HOW THEY WORK AND
HOW TO GET THEM TO TURN BACK ON
WHEN THEY STOP WORKING.
>> FINALLY.
>> Reporter: YOU MIGHT WONDER
HOW A MOLECULAR BIOLOGIST ENDED
UP IN THIS LINE OF WORK.
JESSA AND HER HUSBAND JEFF HAVE
FOUR CHILDREN, INCLUDING TWINS.
ONE DAY JESSA WAS MISSING HER
CELLPHONE AT HOME AND DISCOVERED
THAT THE KIDS WERE PLAYING WITH
IT AND SOMEHOW DROPPED IT INTO
THE TOILET.
>> I TRIED TO PLUNGE IT OUT AND
I TRIED TO AUGER IT OUT.
HEY, GOOGLE, HOW DO YOU TAKE A
TOILET OUT OF THE HOUSE.
TIME TO GET MOMMY'S PHONE.
I CARRIED IT OUT AND I PUT IT IN
THE FRONT YARD.
>> ONE BABY, TWO BABIES AND...
>> I GOT A SLEDGEHAMMER AND I
SLEDGEHAMMERED IT.
>> LOOK AT THAT.
THERE WAS MY iPHONE.
>> Reporter: JONES SACRIFICED
HER $100 TOILET FOR A PHONE THAT 3
HER $100 TOILET FOR A PHONE THAT
COST SEVERAL TIMES THAT AMOUNT.
THEN SHE WENT ON THE INTERNET
AND TAUGHT HERSELF HOW TO REPAIR
ELECTRONICS.
AND SHE LEARNED
MICRO SAUTERRING AND EVENTUALLY
FIGURED OUT HOW TO REPAIR HER
PHONE.
ONCE SHE FIGURED THAT OUT SHE
STARTED PASSING ON HER SKILLS TO
OTHER STAY-AT-HOME MOMS IN HER
NEIGHBOURHOOD AND REALIZED THAT
THERE WAS A BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY
HERE.
>> I THINK THAT WOMEN IN GENERAL
ARE VERY GOOD AT REPAIR.
YOU KNOW, THEY TEND TO HAVE THE
SORT OF, YOU KNOW, KIND OF
ABILITY TO BE VERY GENTLE AND
YET AT TIMES APPLY ENOUGH
PRESSURE TO GET THINGS TO MOVE
AROUND.
THEY'RE APPROPRIATELY CAUTIOUS
BUT ALSO AGGRESSIVE.
AND SOME OF THOSE ARE SKILLS
THAT YOU DEVELOP BEING A MOM.
>> Reporter: WHEN THE
BILLARDS' WATERED DAMAGED
iPHONE ARRIVED FROM
NEWFOUNDLAND IT PRESENTED A
CHALLENGE.
WE RECORDED AS JESSA CALLED TO
SHARE NEWS ON FACETIME.
>> YOU SENT ME A PHONE THAT HAS
BEEN DRIVING ME CRAZY SINCE
AUGUST.
>> THERE'S ABOUT 8,000 PICTURES
ON THERE.
WHICH MEANS QUITE A LOT TO ME.
>> YES.
I CAN IMAGINE.
BECAUSE I CAN TELL THAT YOUR
TRIP LOOKS AMAZING.
>> OH, MY GOD, YOU GOT MY
PICTURES?
>> WE HAVE ALL OF YOUR PICTURES.
>> ISN'T THAT BEAUTIFUL?
OH, MY GOD.
>> SO IT'S ALL RECOVERED AND
THERE WERE THOUSANDS OF THEM.
>> I GRIEVED OVER THOSE
PICTURES.
>> OH, MY GOD.
>> [indiscernible] I GRIEVED
OVER THOSE BECAUSE I DID NOT
THINK THAT IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE
TO
GET THEM BACK.
YOU MADE MY DAY.
>> THAT'S WHAT I LOVE TO HEAR.
ALL RIGHT, BYE-BYE.
HAVE A GOOD NIGHT.
>> THANK YOU.
>> FABULOUS WORK.
>> THOSE ARE THE BEST MOMENTS OF
MY JOB.
>> Reporter: IT TURNS OUT THAT
THE ADVICE THAT THE BILLARDS GOT
FROM APPLE ABOUT HOW THEIR
PICTURES WERE NOT RECOVERABLE IS
NOT AT ALL UNUSUAL.
>> THE MOST COMMON ANSWER -- AND
I HEAR THIS FROM CUSTOMERS ALL
THE TIME IS -- THERE IS NO WAY
TO GET YOUR PICTURES FROM YOUR
iPHONE IF IT WON'T TURN ON.
IT'S HEARTBREAKING.
IT'S ABSOLUTELY HEARTBREAKING,
BECAUSE IT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT
TRUE.
MOST TOILET PHONES, YOU KNOW,
COMMON FAMILY WATER ACCIDENTS,
MOST OF THOSE ARE RECOVERABLE.
>> Reporter: IN YOUR
EXPERIENCE WHAT PERCENTAGE OF
PHONES IN THAT CONDITION CAN BE
RECOVERED?
>> 95%.
THERE WE GO.
>> Reporter: SHE IS SO SURE
THAT SHE CHARGES $300 ONLY IF
SHE CAN GET THE DATA BACK.
>> SO IT'S GOOD NEWS.
YOU'RE LUCKY, WES.
YOU'RE LUCKY,
YOU SKATED BY ON THAT ONE.
>> Reporter: APPLE MAKES A
SHOW OF HELPING PEOPLE WITH
TROUBLESHOOTING THEIR DEVICES.
THE COMPANY RUNS THIS ONLINE
COMMUNITY FORUM THAT COACHES
PEOPLE TO TRY A RESTART AND NOT
MUCH ELSE.
THEY ALLOW PEOPLE LIKE JESSA TO
OFFER ADVICE TO CUSTOMERS.
BUT WHENEVER JESSA TELLS PEOPLE
ONLINE THAT THEIR DEVICES CAN
ACTUALLY BE EASILY BE REPAIRED
BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN APPLE, HER
ADVICE IS QUICKLY REMOVED FROM
THE ONLINE FORUM.
AND THEN SHE RECEIVES THIS
NOTICE -- YOUR ACCOUNT IS
CURRENTLY BANNED.
>> IT FELT INCREDIBLY UNFAIR
GIVEN HOW HARD I TRIED TO FOLLOW
THE RULES.
I READ THE TERMS OF USE.
I HAVE FOLLOWED THE TERMS OF USE
TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY.
AND THEN THIS IS THE RESULT.
THEY DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW.
THEY DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO TRY TO
FIX THEIR PHONE, TO RECOVER THE
DATA.
THEY DON'T CARE.
THEY BLAME YOU.
IT'S YOUR FAULT.
>> Reporter: WE DOUBLE CHECKED
JESSA'S CLAIM BY CHECKING THE
APPLE FORUM OURSELVES.
WHEN WE ASKED WHAT TO DO TO
RECOVER PHOTOS FROM A WATER
DAMAGED PHONE THE ANSWER WAS,
NOTHING.
THEY'RE GONE.
THERE IS NO WAY TO RECOVER ANY
DATA THAT WAS ON IT, INCLUDING
THE PHOTOS, THAT WAS NOT ALREADY
BACKED UP.
WE WROTE AGAIN TO ASK IF WE
WE WROTE AGAIN TO ASK IF WE
SHOULD TRY JESSA'S DATA RECOVERY
SERVICE.
THE ANSWER WAS, NOT
UNLESS YOU HAVE MONEY TO BURN.
THEY CAN'T RECOVER YOUR PHOTOS.
NO ONE CAN.
THE DATA IS GONE.
WE ALSO CONTACTED THE OFFICIAL
SITE FOR APPLE SUPPORT.
AND GOT A SIMILAR ANSWER.
AS THE PHOTOS WEREN'T BACKED UP,
UNFORTUNATELY, THERE IS NO WAY
TO RECOVER THEM.
WHEN WE ASKED APPLE ABOUT WHY
THEY PROVIDED FALSE INFORMATION
THEY CHOSE NOT TO RESPOND.
>> YOU FIND OUT THAT IT'S
EVERYTHING FROM HERE...
>> Reporter: JESSA JONES LIKES
THE DESIGN OF APPLE PRODUCTS BUT
JUST WISHES THAT THE COMPANY
WOULD ADJUST ITS CORPORATE
CULTURE.
>> EVERYTHING THAT APPLE DOES
KIND OF GOES WITH THAT SAME
MINDSET
IF YOU THINK OF THEM AS THE KIND
OF KID IN SCHOOL THAT -- THAT
SAYS, YOU KNOW, HEY, YOU CAN
BORROW MY CRAYONS BUT DON'T BEAR
DOWN.
JUST THE BOSSY CONTROLLING, YOU
KNOW, HOVER MOTHER, AND
EVERYTHING THEY DO IS JUST SORT
OF WITH THAT ATTITUDE.
I'D LIKE FOR SOMEBODY TO JUST
SMACK THEM AND SAY YOU'RE NOT
THE BOSS OF ME.
LET'S INVESTIGATE THIS GUY RIGHT
HERE.
>> Reporter: FOR "THE
NATIONAL" I'M TERENCE McKENNA
IN NEW YORK.
>> Rosemary: IF YOU WANT TO
KNOW MORE ON THE TECHNICAL
DETAILS HOW JESSA JONES WAS ABLE
TO GET THAT DATA OFF THE WATER
DAMAGED PHONE WE HAVE THIS EXTRA
VIDEO ON OUR YouTube CHANNEL
WHERE SHE EXPLAINS ALL OF IT.
CHECK IT OUT AND WHILE THERE YOU
CAN SUBSCRIBE

>>> FIXING YOUR PHONE FOR
ONTARIANS COULD GET A LOT
ASSESSIER IF A BILL PASSES.
>> TO PROVIDE DIAGNOSTIC
SOFTWARE, SCHEMATIC MANUALS TO
ENSURE THAT YOU CAN REPAIR
YOUR PRODUCT YOURSELF.
>> Rosemary: AND WITH THOSE
OFTEN PRO PRITEARY TOOLS,
ONTARIANS OR
>> Rosemary: ONTARIANS OR
THIRD-PARTY REPAIR SHOPS CAN
MORE EASILY FIX THE PROBLEM ON
THEIR OWN.
BEYOND COST, ANOTHER BIG BENEFIT
TO A LAW LIKE THIS WOULD BE
REDUCING THE SERIOUS
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF
ELECTRONIC WASTE.
>> Ian: STILL AHEAD ON "THE
NATIONAL"... GOING TO NEW
HEIGHTS TO GIVE BACK.
>> I WANTED TO SHARE MY LOVE FOR
FLYING AND AVIATION IN GENERAL
WITH CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES.
YES, HE IS VISUALLY IMPAIRED BUT
YET HE CAN FLY AN AIRPLANE
EXECUTING MY COMMANDS.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE
IT.
>> Ian: THEIR STORY IS OUR
"MOMENT."
BUT FIRST...
(*)
>>> TRIBUTES TODAY IN SOUTH LOS
ANGELES FOR ANOTHER MAN WHO
WORKED HARD TO GIVE BACK TO KIDS
IN HIS COMMUNITY.
GRAMMY-NOMINATED RAPPER NIPSEY
HUSSLE WAS SHOT AND KILLED
OUTSIDE OF HIS CLOTHING STORE
YESTERDAY.
HE WAS SUPPOSED TO MEET L.A.'S
POLICE CHIEF TODAY TO TALK ABOUT
GANG VIOLENCE AND HOW TO HELP
KIDS.
INSTEAD CANDLES AND FLOWERS MARK
THE SPOT WHERE NIPSEY HUSSLE
LOST HIS LIFE.
THE 33-YEAR-OLD WAS OUTSIDE OF
HIS CLOTHING STORE YESTERDAY
WHEN HE WAS SHOT AT CLOSE RANGE.
HE'S BEEN OPEN ABOUT HIS GANG
TIES IN THE PAST BUT IT'S NOT
CLEAR WHETHER THAT PLAYED A ROLE
IN HIS DEATH.
>> HE CARED ABOUT US.
I CARED ABOUT HIM.
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT HE
MEANS TO US.
>> HE IS SOMEONE WHO PUT OUR
COMMUNITY ON THE MAP.
PEOPLE THOUGHT THAT OUR
COMMUNITY WAS JUST ABOUT
VIOLENCE AND NIPSEY PUT A CHANGE
TO THEM AND HE LET THEM KNOW
THAT EVEN THOUGH WE'RE FROM
UNDERPRIVILEGED COMMUNITIES OF
POVERTY, THAT WE CAN STILL
BECOME SOMETHING.
* ALL MY LIFE
* RUNNING ALL MY LIFE
>> Ian: NIPSEY WAS AT THE TOP OF
HIS
GAME, FRESH OFF A GRAMMY
NOMINATION FOR BEST RAP ALBUM OF
THE YEAR.
FOR PEOPLE HERE HE WAS MORE THAN
A RAPPER, HE WAS A COMMUNITY
ACTIVIST.
>> WELL, WHAT I DO IS CLEAN UP
AND CLEAN THE WINDOWS.
>> Ian: NIPSEY OWNED SEVERAL
BUSINESSES ON THIS BLOCK AND
SOMETIMES GAVE JOBS TO RESIDENTS
IN NEED.
>> HE GOT ME GOING, HE BROUGHT
ME UP AND HE LOVED EVERYBODY AND
I LOVED HIM.
>> Ian: NIPSEY ONCE GAVE EVERY
STUDENT AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
NEW SHOES AND DONATED MONEY TO
REPAIR THEIR PLAYGROUND AND
BASKETBALL COURT.
>> HE WAS A FAMILY MAN, A
BUSINESSMAN, AN ENTREPRENEUR, A
LEADER WHO OUR YOUTH LOOKED UP
TO AND KNOW THAT NO MATTER WHAT
YOUR
SETBACK WAS IN LIFE THAT THERE'S
ALWAYS A GREATER COMEBACK FOR
YOU.
>> Ian: NIPSEY'S KILLER IS STILL
ON THE LOOSE AND A SOURCE
TELLING THE "L.A. TIMES" THAT IT
WAS LIKELY A PERSONAL FEUD.
NIPSEY'S LAST TWEET POSTED
SHORTLY BEFORE
(*)
>> Ian: WE'RE WATCHING
DEVELOPMENTS TONIGHT IN THE
FENTANYL CRISIS.
CHINA HAS ANNOUNCED THAT IT WILL
CRACK DOWN ON THE MANUFACTURING
OF THE DRUG.
STARTING MAY 1, ALL FENTANYL
VARIANTS WILL BE CLASSIFIED AS
CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES AND
TOUGHER RULES AROUND DRUG
EXPORTS WILL BE ENFORCED.
THE ANNOUNCEMENT FULFILLS THE
PROMISE THAT THE CHINESE
PRESIDENT XI JINPING MADE TO
AMERICANS LAST YEAR.
BOTH CANADA AND THE UNITED
STATES HAVE SEEN THOUSANDS OF
FENTANYL RELATED DEATHS OVER THE
PAST FEW YEARS.
>>> THE SPEAKER OF BRITISH
COLUMBIA'S LEGISLATURE SAYS THAT
WOMEN WILL NOW BE ALLOWED TO
BARE THEIR ARMS AT WORK.
THIS COMES AFTER LAST WEEK'S
PROTEST WHICH SAW A NUMBER OF
WOMEN COMPLAIN THAT THEY WERE
BEING TOLD TO COVER UP.
A FULL DRESS CODE REVIEW IS
UNDERWAY BUT IN THE MEANTIME
WOMEN ARE ALLOWED TO WEAR
BUSINESS APPAREL, INCLUDING
SLEEVELESS DRESSES AND TOPS.
>>> A DAY AFTER THE CANADIAN
HOCKEY WOMEN'S LEAGUE ANNOUNCED
THEY'D SHUT DOWN, THE MEMBER OF
THE CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING CALGARY
INFERNO SAY THEY
AREN'T GIVING UP ON PROFESSIONAL
WOMEN'S HOCKEY IN CANADA.
>> IT'S A WASTE AND A MISSED
OPPORTUNITY, AND A DISSERVICE TO
COMMUNITIES ACROSS NORTH AMERICA
TO NOT INVEST IN WOMEN'S HOCKEY
RIGHT NOW.
THERE HAS TO BE PROFESSIONAL
HOCKEY UP HERE.
THERE HAS TO BE PROFESSIONAL
HOCKEY IN CALGARY AND THERE HAS
TO BE PROFESSIONAL HOCKEY IN
CANADA.
THERE'S TOO MUCH OF A NEED,
THERE'S TOO MANY GOOD PLAYERS
FOR EVERYONE TO DISBURSE AND GO
OTHER PLACES.
>> Ian: THE 12-YEAR-OLD LEAGUE
HAD TEAMS IN NORTH AMERICA AND
CHINA THIS PAST SEASON.
DESPITE A RECENT SURGE IN
POPULARITY IT SAYS THAT ITS
BUSINESS MODEL IS UNSUSTAINABLE
AND IT WILL CEASE OPERATIONS MAY
1.
THERE'S ANOTHER WOMEN'S PRO
LEAGUE IN NORTH AMERICA, THE
NWHL, WHICH CURRENTLY OPERATES
ONLY IN THE UNITED STATES.
>>> WELL, TODAY FOR THE FIRST
TIME IN ONTARIO SOME PEOPLE
COULD WALK INTO A STORE AND BUY
LEGAL RECREATIONAL CANNABIS.
>> I HAVE NEVER SMOKED POT OR
ANYTHING SO I AM INTERESTED IN
TRYING THIS.
AND I LIKE THE FACT THAT THEY
HAVE, LIKE, BROKEN IT DOWN INTO
SOMETHING YOU CAN DO AT A DINNER
PARTY, SOMETHING TO DO ON A
WALK.
>> Ian: ONLY 10 SHOPS WERE SET
TO OPEN TODAY, FEWER THAN THE
GOVERNMENT'S INITIAL GOAL OF 25.
ONTARIO IS BEHIND OTHER
PROVINCES IN ESTABLISHING
STOREFRONTS.
>>> ACROSS THE COUNTRY,
RECREATIONAL
CANNABIS HAS BEEN LEGAL SINCE
LAST OCTOBER AND STATISTICS
CANADA HAS BEEN KEEPING TRACK.
IN THE LAST QUARTER OF 2018,
CANADIANS SPENT $307 MILLION ON
LEGAL PRODUCT AND $1.2 BILLION
ON ILLEGAL PRODUCT.
SO CRIMINALS COMMANDED 79% OF
THE MARKET BUT THAT'S DOWN FROM
90% WHEN MEDICAL MARIJUANA WAS
THE ONLY LEGAL OPTION.
STATSCAN WARNS THAT SOME NUMBERS
ARE SELF-REPORTED SO NOT
DEFINITIVE.
CALIFORNIA LEGALIZED POT SALES
LAST YEAR AND GRAPE GROWERS IN
WINE COUNTRY HAVE BEEN LURED BY
THE PROMISE OF BIGGER RETURNS.
BUT A NEW REPORT SUGGESTS THAT
SUPPLY IS GETTING DANGEROUSLY
HIGH.
KIM BRUNHUBER LOOKS AT WHO MIGHT
GET CRUSHED BY A CRASH.
>> Reporter: AN EXCLUSIVE
DINNER IN SAN FRANCISCO.
TWO DOZEN OR SO CUSTOMERS HERE
TO EXPERIENCE A CULINARY
PHENOMENON SO NEW THAT THERE
DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A WORD FOR IT
YET.
WHAT IS THE RIGHT VERB FOR
PAIRING NOT TWO BUT THREE THINGS
TOGETHER?
THE FIRST COURSE -- CELERY ROOT
MATCHED WITH A GRASS OF PINOT
GRIGIO AND A TOTE OF MASTER OH,
GEE.
>> SO GIVE IT A GOOD SWIRL AND
THEN SMELL.
>> Reporter: JAMIE EVANS WHO
IS HOSTING THE EVENT, SPENT OVER
A DECADE IN THE WINE WORLD.
>> THEN WHAT WE LIKE TO DO IS GO
TO THE STRAIN.
>> Reporter: BUT SHE'S EVOLVED
INTO A NEW HYBRID.
>> I LIKE TO SMELL IT BETTER IN
THE JAR.
THE JAR.
>> Reporter: A HERB SOMMELIER.
>> OVER PAST YEAR I HAVE
DEFINITELY SEEN
THE TWO INDUSTRIES COME CLOSER
TOGETHER BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT
OF PARALLELS BETWEEN THE
INDUSTRIES.
>> Reporter: IN FACT, OUT HERE
IN SONOMA COUNTY, WINE COUNTRY
IS SLOWLY TURNING INTO CANNABIS
COUNTRY.
YOU SEE HERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF
ME WINERIES GROWING GRAPES AND
JUST RIGHT ACROSS THE ROAD
BEHIND THAT GATE THE COMPANY IS
GROWING CANNABIS AT AN
INDUSTRIAL SCALE.
HERE AT THE INTERSECTION OF
CALIFORNIA'S ICONIC WINE COUNTRY
AND THE SO-CALLED EMERALD
TRIANGLE, AT THE CENTRE OF THE
STATE'S $5 BILLION CANNABIS
INDUSTRY, SOME GRAPE GROWERS
STARTED WONDERING, THEY HAVE THE
LAND AND THE KNOWHOW, WHY NOT
DIVERSIFY BY GROWING CANNABIS
AND CASH IN ON THE GREEN RUSH.
ONE HECTARE OF GRAPES HERE IN
SONOMA COUNTY CAN BE WORTH
$460,000 U.S., BUT THE SAME AREA
OF CANNABIS CAN BE WORTH AS MUCH
AS $2.75 MILLION.
TOM RODRIGUEZ OWNS MAPLE CREEK
WINERY AND HE ALSO GROWS SMALL
AMOUNTS OF CANNABIS.
BECAUSE IT'S STILL ILLEGAL AT
THE FEDERAL LEVEL HE'S NOT KEEN
TO SHOW IT ON TV BUT HE SAYS
THAT HE'S FAR FROM THE ONLY ONE
AROUND HERE GROWING BOTH.
>> ALTHOUGH THEY'RE JUST NOT ALL
OUT, YOU KNOW.
A LOT OF THEM ARE STILL IN THE
CLOSET, SO TO SPEAK.
>> Reporter: WHEN CALIFORNIA
LEGALIZED CANNABIS THE GRAPE
PRICES WERE AT THE LOWEST LEVELS
IN YEARS AND POT PRICES WERE SO
HIGH THAT RODRIGUEZ SAYS THAT
MANY GRAPE GROWERS DID THE MATH.
>> YOU ARE GROWING CANNABIS AT
$250 A POUND AND IT'S READY IN 8
MONTHS OR PINOT NOIR THAT IS
READY IN A YEAR AND A HALF AT
$200 A POUND.
YOU'RE A FARMER, WHAT ARE YOU
GOING TO DO?
IT SEEMS LIKE A NO-BRAINER.
>> Reporter: THE PROBLEM IS
THAT THE CANNABIS GROWERS ARE
PRODUCING TOO MUCH POT, AT LEAST
FIVE TIMES THAT IS CONSUMED.
SOME HAVE AN EXTINCTION EVENT
WHICH ONLY THE BIGGEST COMPANIES
WILL SURVIVE.
ANY SMALL GRAPE GROWER WHO
INVESTED HEAVILY IN CANNABIS,
RODRIGUEZ SAYS, COULD BE SNUFFED
OUT.
>> THERE'S ALWAYS THAT RISK IN A
NEW
INDUSTRY LIKE THIS.
PERSONALLY I JUST WANT TO WAIT
AND SEE.
WELL, THIS IS OUR DOUBLE GOLD
WINNER.
>> Reporter: SO RODRIGUEZ SAYS
THAT FOR NOW HE'LL
CARRY ON SELLING WINE AND KEEP
HIS WEED FOR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
KIM BRUNHUBER, CBC NEWS,
MENDICINO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA.
>> Rosemary: NEXT ON "THE
NATIONAL," OUR "MOMENT," A HIGH
FLYING WAY TO GIVE BACK.
>> IT'S A PRETTY VIEW.
>> YOU CAN SEE IT, CAN YOU?
>> YEAH.
>> AWESOME, BUDDY.
>> Rosemary: THEIR STORY IS
RIGHT AFTER THIS.
>> Rosemary: DIMITRI HAS BEEN
FLYING PLANES AS A HOBBY FOR 12
YEARS, BUT DIMITRI DOESN'T JUST
FLY PLANES BUT HAS A PROGRAMME
CALLED "DREAM WINGS" THAT GIVES
CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS OR
KIDS WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN IN A
PLANE A CHANCE TO GO UP FOR A
RIDE, LIKE LUKE REDDICK HERE,
THE MOST RECENT CO-PILOT.
LUKE HAS A VISUAL IMPAIRMENT BUT
THAT DIDN'T STOP HIM FROM
FLYING.
LUKE'S TURN TO TAKE TO THE SKIES
IS OUR "MOMENT."
>> I WANTED TO SHARE MY LOVE FOR
FLYING AND AVIATION IN GENERAL
WITH CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES.
WE GIVE THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO
BE A PILOT FOR AN HOUR.
I MET LUKE IN 2017.
AND HE HAS A VISUAL IMPAIRMENT.
>> IT'S A PRETTY NICE VIEW OUT
THE
WINDOW, EH.
>> YOU CAN SEE IT, CAN YOU?
>> YEAH.
>> AWESOME, BUDDY.
HE TOOK A TURN TO THE LEFT AND
THEN HE TOOK A TURN TO THE
RIGHT.
AND I NOTICED THAT
HE WAS HOLDING ALTITUDE AND
FLYING LIKE A PROFESSIONAL
PILOT.
AND EVERY TIME I FLY WITH HIM
HE'S FUNNY AND DELIGHTFUL AND A
GREAT PILOT.
TURN RIGHT, RIGHT.
THERE YOU GO.
VERY NICE, BUD.
YOU'RE DOING AWESOME TODAY, MAN.
>> WOO-HOO.
>> Rosemary: I LOVE LUKE BUT
DIMITRI HAS DONE THIS -- IN THE
18 MONTHS SINCE HE STARTED DOING
THIS HE HAS TAKEN
350 KIDS ON 250 FLIGHTS.
THAT'S A PRETTY COOL WAY TO
PRACTISE AND TO GET UP IN THE
SKIES.
>> Ian: YEAH, WELL GREAT FOR
DIMIGHTRY, AND WHAT A FANTASTIC
VIEW FROM
THAT FRONT SEAT SITTING NEXT TO
THE PILOT.
IT'S ONE OF THE GREAT THINGS
ABOUT THIS JOB.
I'VE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO
THAT SO MANY TIMES HEADING TO
AND FROM CERTAIN STORIES,
ESPECIALLY IN THE INTERIOR OF
B.C.
SO I HOPE THAT PEOPLE WATCHING
THIS WHO, YOU KNOW, FLY TO GET
THEIR HOURS IN THEIR PRIVATE
PLANE TAKE A PAGE OUT OF
DIMITRI'S BOOK AND OFFER FLIGHTS
TO PEOPLE WHO NORMALLY WOULDN'T
GET A CHANCE TO DO THAT.
THAT WOULD BE A FANTASTIC THING.
AND THAT'S NO JOKE.
THAT IS "THE NATIONAL" FOR
MONDAY, APRIL 1st.
GOODNIGHT.
>> Rosemary: GOODNIGHT.
