>> Ian: GOOD EVENING, I'M IAN
HANOMANSING.
TONIGHT, CONCERNS THE
CORONAVIRUS IS ENTERING A NEW
PHASE IN CANADA, CIRCULATING IN
THE COMMUNITY.
FROM MAT MASS TRANSIT TO PUBLIC
GATHERINGS.
>> WE NEED TO START CHANGING OUR
APPROACH.
>> Ian: AND WHY SOME DOCTORS
SAY, IF YOU'RE SICK, DON'T GO TO
THE E.R.
>> RIGHT NOW I'M JUST WAITING TO
HUG HIM.
>> Ian: A TEEN BOY RESCUED AFTER
HE WAS ABDUCTED, TAKEN AS
COLLATERAL FOR A STEP BROTHER'S
DRUG DEBT.
>>> THE TRAGIC CONSEQUENCES OF
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
>> HE NEVER LEFT HER ALONE.
>> AND POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS.
THE CIRCLE OF SUPPORT THAT SOME
SAY IS SAVING LIVES.
CANADIAN HOCKEY'S FIRST OLYMPIC
CHAMPIONS MIGHT SURPRISE YOU.
>> THIS WAS AN UNDERDOG STORY
THAT ENDED UP BEING A MOMENTOUS
CANADIAN STORY.
>> Ian: A NEW TRIBUTE FOR A
HISTORY-MAKING TEAM.
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL".
IN AN EPIDEMIC, FEAR CAN EASILY
OUTRUN FACTS.
A DAY AFTER WE LEARNED OF THE
FIRST COVID-19 CASE IN CANADA
WITH NO DIRECT LINK TO TRAVEL,
THE FEAR IS THE VIRUS IS
RAMPANT.
THE FACTS SAYING THE EXPERTS,
NOT HERE, NOT NOW.
HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE ACTING AS
DISEASE DETECTIVES, TRACKING
CASES OF THE VIRUS, ISOLATING
THOSE WHO COME IN CONTACT WITH
IT.
THE RISK, OFFICIALS STRESS,
REMAINS LOW, ALTHOUGH
YESTERDAY'S B.C. CASE OF
APPARENT COMMUNITY TRANSMISSION
IS A SIGN THE CLOCK IS TICKING.
FOR THE MOST PART, CANADA IS
DEALING WITH INDIVIDUAL CASES OR
SMALL CLUSTERS LINKED TO TRAVEL
OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY.
YET, VIK ADHOPIA HAS THE STORY
OF ONE CASE.
>> Reporter: AFTER RETURNING
FROM LAS VEGAS FOR THREE DAYS
THIS WEEK, THE MAN TOOK THE
TRANSIT WITH RUSH HOUR CROWDS,
TO AND FROM WORK, UNTIL HE
SHOWED UP AT A TORONTO HOSPITAL
ON WEDNESDAY.
>> THE INDIVIDUAL IDENTIFIED
THAT THEY HAD THE ONSET OF
COUGH, A MILD COUGH.
AND THAT IS THE PRIMARY SYMPTOM.
>> Reporter: THE MAN WHO IS IN
HIS 40s IS NOW RECOVERING AT
HOME.
HEALTH OFFICIALS SAY THE RISK TO
PASSENGERS IS LOW, BUT THEY'RE
NOW TRACING WHO THE MAN MIGHT
HAVE HAD CONTACT WITH, WHERE HE
PICKED UP THE CORONAVIRUS ISN'T
CLEAR, LAS VEGAS DOESN'T HAVE A
KNOWN OUTBREAK.
OFFICIALS PREDICT IT'S ONLY A
MATTER OF TIME UNTIL THE VIRUS
WILL BE PASSED ON LOCALLY.
>> SHOULD WE FIND OURSELVES IN A
CIRCUMSTANCE WHERE WE'RE SEEING,
HMM, THERE IS LOCAL
TRANSMISSION, WE NEED TO START
CHANGING OUR APPROACH THEN.
>> Reporter: THE T.T.C. IS
ALREADY DOING THAT, DISINFECTING
VEHICLES MORE FREQUENTLY.
AS FOR PASSENGERS --
>> NOT VERY CONCERNED.
IT'S SAD FOR THOSE AFFECTED BY
IT, BUT DON'T NEED TO PANIC.
>> YOU'RE WONDERING IF THE
PERSON SITTING NEXT TO ME IS
INFECTED.
>> SECURITY GUARD HAD IT, THAT
WAS WHACK, BUT HE HANDLED
PROPERLY.
>> Reporter: IF TORONTO
CONTINUES TO SEE UNEXPLAINED
CASES IT COULD CHANGE THE
DEFINITION OF WHO IS AT RISK AND
WHO SHOULD BE TESTED OR EVEN
RETESTED.
>> AND I KNOW IN OTHER
JURISDICTIONS THEY'VE GONE AHEAD
AND TESTED INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE,
FOR EXAMPLE, ILL WITH SEVERE
RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS SO IT
MIGHT BE LOOKING FOR THE VIRUS
IN CASES THAT DID NOT HAVE CLEAR
EXPOSURE.
>> Reporter: DR. SAMIRA MUBAREKA
IS TAPPING INTO $27 MILLION OF
NEW FEDERAL RESEARCH MONEY TO
STUDY HOW LONG THE CORONAVIRUS
SURVIVES IN THE AIR AND ON
SURFACES.
A KEY UNKNOWN FOR OFFICIALS
TRYING TO PREVENT MORE
TRANSMISSIONS.
VIK ADHOPIA, CBC NEWS, TORONTO.
>> Ian: B.C. IS HOME TO CANADA'S
FIRST APPARENT CASE OF SO-CALLED
COMMUNITY TRANSMISSION.
THE PROVINCE, LIKE ONTARIO,
REMAINS FOCUSED ON TRACKING AND
CONTAINING THE VIRUS, BUT IT'S
NOT RULING OUT TAKING MORE
EXTREME MEASURES.
>> Reporter: TODAY, B.C.
UNVEILED ITS PLAN TO FIGHT THE
OUTBREAK.
>> IT'S A VERY CHALLENGING VIRUS
TO BE ABLE TO CONTAIN AND WE'VE
SEEN THAT GLOBALLY.
>> Reporter: SO FAR THE PROVINCE
HAS 21 CONFIRMED CASES,
INCLUDING ONE PATIENT IN
INTENSIVE CARE.
ONE CASE IS TROUBLING BECAUSE SO
FAR IT CAN'T BE TRACED BACK TO
EARLIER INFECTIONS.
IT HAS OFFICIALS SCRAMBLING,
LOOKING FOR THE SOURCE.
>> THAT INVESTIGATION IS ONE
WE'RE WATCHING CAREFULLY AND
THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF DETAILED
DETECTIVE WORK BEING DONE IN THE
LAST 24 HOURS.
>> Reporter: ACROSS THE BORDER
IN WASHINGTON STATE, THREE NEW
DEATHS WERE CONFIRMED BRINGING
THE TOTAL TO 14.
AFTER A STAFF MEMBER TESTED
POSITIVE, THIS UNIVERSITY TOLD
ITS 46,000 STUDENTS AND STAFF TO
STAY HOME.
CLASSES AND EXAMS WILL NOW BE
DONE REMOTELY.
SO MANY PEOPLE ARE STAYING HOME
IN SEATTLE, COMMUTE TIMES HAVE
BEEN CUT IN HALF.
IN VANCOUVER, SOME THINGS ARE
GOING AHEAD.
70,000 FANS AND PLAYERS FROM 16
COUNTRIES CONVERGE ON B.C. PLACE
STADIUM FOR THE WORLD RUGBY 7s.
THIS TICKET RESELLER SAYS SOME
PEOPLE ARE STAYING AWAY.
>> IT LOOKS LIKE THE LOCAL
NUMBERS ARE COMING, NO ISSUES
THERE, BUT A LOT OF
INTERNATIONAL GROUPS HAVE
CANCELLED.
>> Reporter: A GROWING NUMBER OF
EVENTS ARE BEING PUT ON HOLD,
INCLUDING A LARGE HOSPITAL
FUNDRAISER.
>> WE'RE GETTING INCREASING
FEEDBACK FROM BOTH GUESTS AND
VOLUNTEERS ABOUT THEIR CONCERN.
>> Reporter: THE B.C. GOVERNMENT
SAYS IT'S PREPARING FOR THINGS
TO GET WORSE, SETTING UP A NEW
TASK FORCE.
>> WE LIVE IN AN INTERDEPENDENT
WORLD AS YOU ALL KNOW AND THERE
ARE ASPECTS OF THIS WE DO NOT
AND CANNOT CONTROL AND WE HAVE
TO BE PREPARED.
>> Reporter: IF AND ONLY IF
THINGS GET WORSE, THE GOVERNMENT
COULD INVOKE ITS POWERS TO
RESTRICT TRAVEL, MAKE SURE THERE
IS FOOD ON STORE SHELVES AND
REALLOCATE HEALTH CARE
RESOURCES.
>> Ian: WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF
YOU THINK YOU'RE INFECTED WITH
COVID-19?
THE FIRST IMPULSE MIGHT BE TO
RUN TO THE NEAREST EMERGENCY
WARD.
DAVID COMMON SHOWS US WHY SOME
DOCTORS SAY THAT'S A BAD IDEA.
>> Reporter: IN EXTREME CASES,
THOSE WITH COVID-19 WOULD END UP
LIKE THIS.
UNLESS YOU'RE THIS SICK,
PHYSICIANS DON'T WANT YOU
ANYWHERE NEAR A HOSPITAL.
>> BECAUSE COVID-19 SPARKS FEAR,
I'M GOING TO DIE, THIS IS
SERIOUS, THEY BECOME ALARMED AND
THEY SHOW UP IN OUR DEPARTMENT.
PROBLEM WITH THAT, THEY PUT
OTHERS AT RISK.
>> Reporter: EMERGENCY DOCTOR
LAU
LAURIE MAZURIK STARTED A
PETITION.
>> I THINK IT WOULD BE AMAZING
IF CANADA SIGNED IT AND THEY
SAID, HEY, WE WANT TO PROTECT
THESE PEOPLE.
>> Reporter: SOMETHING SHE
BELIEVES SHOULD BE IN PLACE NOW,
SO THOSE WITH MILD SYMPTOMS ARE
KEPT AWAY FROM THOSE MOST
VULNERABLE.
THERE ARE LIMITED EFFORTS NOW TO
HAVE THE TESTING DONE ELSEWHERE.
TORONTO'S MICHAEL GARRON
HOSPITAL IS SETTING UP A DEAD
INDICATED -- DEDICATED CLINIC.
>> IF THEY JUST NEED SCREENS,
WEE
WE'RE WORKING WITH PARTNERS TO
GET TESTING.
>> OFFSITE?
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
>> Reporter: THE NEW FACILITY
SET TO TEST UP TO 150 PEOPLE A
DAY IS THE ONLY ONE ANNOUNCED SO
FAR IN ONTARIO.
THE PROVINCE SAYS PLANNING FOR
MORE COULD BE IN PLACE NEXT
WEEK.
THIS HOSPITAL BELIEVES THE
TIMING IS RIGHT.
>> THERE HAS BEEN VERY LIMITED
NUMBER OF CASES IN ONTARIO RIGHT
NOW, SO TO HAVE BUILT THESE A
MONTH AGO WOULDN'T HAVE MADE
SENSE IN TERMS OF THE NEED IN
THE COMMUNITY.
AS WE START TO SEE THE NUMBER OF
CASES INCREASE IN ONTARIO, WE
WANT TO BE PREPARED.
>> Reporter: WHY NOT JUST HAVE A
FAMILY PHYSICIAN CONDUCT THE
TEST?
IN PART BECAUSE IT INVOLVES A
Q-TIP ALL THE WAY UP THE NOSE
AND THAT PROMPTS PEOPLE TO
COUGH.
IF THEY'RE INFECTED, THAT IS A
PROBLEM TO THE PERSON
ADMINISTERING THE TEST, WHO
LIKELY NEEDS TO WEAR A FACE
SHIELD, SOMETHING MANY FAMILY
PHYSICIANS DON'T HAVE ON HAND.
>> Ian: IF YOU START HAVING THE
FLU-LIKE SYMPTOMS OF COVID-19,
HEALTH CANADA SAYS TO ISOLATE
YOURSELF AND CALL A HEALTH CARE
PROFESSIONAL OR THE PUBLIC
HEALTH AUTHORITY WHERE YOU LIVE.
IN MOST PROVINCES, DIALING 811
DOES THE TRICK, BUT MANITOBA,
ONTARIO AND NUNAVUT HAVE OTHER
TOLL FREE NUMBERS.
BEFORE YOU GO TO A DOCTOR OR
CLINIC, CALL AHEAD AND ASK FOR
INSTRUCTIONS.
>>> IT'S ALWAYS NICE TO GET
INFORMATION FROM INFECTIOUS
DISEASE SPECIALISTS, LIKE
PRASHANTH MURTHY, HE'S THE
CO-CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE FOR
THE NEW VIRUS.
YOU'RE A DOCTOR AS WELL AT
CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL HERE IN
VANCOUVER.
LET'S START WITH THIS, THE RISK
OF TRANSMISSION IN CANADA
REMAINS LOW.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
>> THAT'S CORRECT.
WHAT IT MEANS WHEN UP GO OUT TO
SCHOOL OR PLACE OF WORK, YOUR
RISK OF GETTING THIS DISEASE IS
LOW.
THERE HAVE BEEN COMMUNITY LEVEL
TRANSMISSIONS REPORTED, BUT THEY
ARE ISOLATED.
JUST ONE REPORTED THUS FAR IN
CANADA.
>> Ian: I THINK THAT MIGHT COME
AS A SURPRISE TO CANADA, THAT
LOW RISK, BECAUSE WE HAD, AS YOU
SAY, A TRANSMISSION WITHIN THE
COMMUNITY HERE IN BRITISH
COLUMBIA, TWO AND A HALF HOURS
AWAY IN SEATTLE, WASHINGTON,
THEY'RE DEALING WITH AN
OUTBREAK, HOW CAN IT BE THAT THE
RISK OF TRANSMISSION IS STILL
LOW IN THIS COUNTRY?
>> I THINK A FEW THINGS.
OUR ABILITY TO TEST IN CANADA IS
EXCELLENT.
IF YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS AND
CONCERNS, YOU WILL BE TESTED AT
MOST HOSPITALS IN CANADA.
SECOND, OUR INSTITUTIONAL
EXPERIENCE LIKE WITH SARS HAS
LED TO PROTOCOLS BEING IN PLACE.
I THINK THE FAMILIARITY WITH THE
HEALTH SYSTEM LED TO ENGAGED
PUBLIC HEALTH STRUCTURE.
>> Ian: PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED
WE'LL SEE A HUGE JUMP IN THE
NUMBER OF CASES?
>> THAT IS DEFINITELY POSSIBLE.
HOPEFULLY, NOT.
AND WE'LL SEE HOW THE NEXT DAYS
AND WEEKS GO.
I THINK CANADIANS SHOULD FEEL
CONFIDENT IN THE PEOPLE WHO ARE
MONITORING THEIR HEALTH AND
THEIR HOSPITALS TO BE READY FOR
THIS.
>> Ian: DR. MURTHY, THANK YOU
VERY MUCH.
>>> TONIGHT, 230 CANADIANS MUST
BE WISHING THEY'D MADE DIFFERENT
TRAVEL PLANS, THEY'RE FORCED TO
STAY ON A CRUISE SHIP BECAUSE A
FORMER PASSENGER DIED FROM
COVID-19.
>> Reporter: IT'S NOT A CRUISE
ANYONE WOULD SIGN UP FOR.
STUCK AT SEA FOR AN ANXIOUS WAIT
FOLLOWED BY MEDICAL TESTS WITH
BAD RESULTS.
>> AMONG THOSE TESTED, 46
PERSONS WERE SWABBED, 21 OF
THOSE ON THE SHIP TESTED
POSITIVE FOR THE CORONAVIRUS.
>> Reporter: PARATROOPERS
DROPPED OFF THE TEST KITS
YESTERDAY, THIS SHIP SINGLED OUT
AFTER IT EMERGED THE FIRST COVID
FATALITY HAD BEEN A PASSENGER IN
FEBRUARY.
AND FRESH WORRIES TODAY THAT A
SECOND PASSENGER MAY HAVE DIED
ON LAND AND OTHERS ARE SERIOUSLY
ILL.
SO THE RUSH TO FIND AND TEST
FORMER PASSENGERS IS HAPPENING
ACROSS CALIFORNIA.
>> WE'RE PLANNING TO CONTACT ALL
PEOPLE WHO GOT OFF THE SHIP WHO
ARE RESIDENTS OF SAN FRANCISCO
AND WE'LL GET TO THOSE PEOPLE TO
INFORM THEM THAT THEY SHOULD
CONSULT WITH THEIR HEALTH CARE
PROVIDER.
>> Reporter: BACK ON THE SHIP,
THE POSITIVE RESULTS MEAN THE
JOURNEY IS FAR FROM OVER.
>> IT'S DISTURBING BEING OUT
HERE IN THE OPEN SEA, JUST
BARELY MOVING ALONG.
WE'RE JUST GOING IN CIRCLES AND
NOT KNOWING HOW LONG WE'RE GOING
TO BE OUT HERE.
>> Reporter: BUT THE ANSWERS
SHOULD BE COMING SOON.
>> WE HAVE DEVELOPED A PLAN THAT
WILL BE IMPLEMENTED THIS WEEKEND
TO BRING THE SHIP INTO A
NONCOMMERCIAL PORT.
>> Reporter: ONE OBSTACLE IS A
SHORTAGE OF TESTING KITS AND
LABS, SOMETHING THE U.S.
PRESIDENT SAYS IS A THING OF THE
PAST, BUT SEEMS LESS SURE THAT
THE PEOPLE ON BOARD THE GRAND
PRINCESS SHOULD BE LET OFF THE
SHIP AT ALL.
>> FRANKLY, IF IT WERE UP TO ME,
I WOULD BE INCLINED TO SAY,
LEAVE EVERYBODY ON THE SHIP FOR
A PERIOD OF TIME AND USE THE
SHIP AS A BASE.
BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD RATHER
DO IT A DIFFERENT WAY AND
QUARANTINE PEOPLE.
>> Reporter: FOR NOW, THE
THOUSANDS ON BOARD THE GRAND
PRINCESS ARE STILL OUT THERE.
SOMEWHERE.
OFFICIALS SAY THEY'LL ALL
EVENTUALLY BE TESTED FOR
COVID-19, BUT WHAT IS LESS
CLEAR, IS WHERE THEIR CRUISE
WILL FINALLY END.
ERIN COLLINS, CBC NEWS, SAN
FRANCISCO.
>> Ian: AS YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE,
THE BEST PART OF QUARANTINE IS
WHEN IT'S OVER.
>> [LAUGHTER] HELLO!
[LAUGHTER]
>> Ian: THIS ONTARIO WOMAN
HADN'T SEEN HER DOGS IN 66 DAYS.
SHE WAS ONE OF MORE THAN 100
CANADIANS WHO SPENT TWO WEEKS IN
QUARANTINE ON THE DIAMOND
PRINCESS.
WHEN THE GOVERNMENT FLEW THEM
BACK TO CANADA, THEY HAD TO
SPEND ANOTHER 14 DAYS IN
QUARANTINE EVEN THOUGH THEY
NEVER TESTED POSITIVE.
SOME HAVE CRITICIZED THE
GOVERNMENT'S CAUTION, SAYING
THEY WOULD HAVE PREFERRED
SELF-ICELATION --
SELF-ISOLATION.
>>> DONALD TRUMP WENT BEFORE
CAMERAS TO REASSURE THE PUBLIC.
KATIE SIMPSON SHOWS US.
>> Reporter: WEARING A BALL CAP
WITH HIS RE-ELECTION SLOGAN, THE
PRESIDENT TOURED THE CENTERS FOR
DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION.
>> WE'RE PREPARED FOR ANYTHING.
WE'RE HIGHLY PREPARED.
>> Reporter: IT'S A VISIT THAT
COMES AFTER HIS CLOSE ADVISORS
DOWN PLAYED THE SPREAD OF THE
CORONAVIRUS.
>> WHAT I AM PLEASED TO REPORT
IS THAT THE 14 DEATHS THAT ARE
TRAGIC AND SAD IN THIS COUNTRY,
SHOWS THIS IS BEING CONTAINED
BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT TOOK
ACTION.
>> YOU DON'T ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT
THE MAGNITUDE OF THE VIRUS IS
GOING TO BE, ALTHOUGH, FRANKLY,
SO FAR, IT LOOKS RELATIVELY
CONTAINED.
>> Reporter: IN FACT, THE NUMBER
OF CORONAVIRUS CASES IS ON THE
RISE IN THE U.S., WITH MORE THAN
288 PEOPLE DIAGNOSED WITH THE
ILLNESS SO FAR.
THAT INCLUDES TWO ATTENDEES OF
THE AMERICAN ISRAEL PUBLIC
AFFAIRS COMMITTEE CONFERENCE IN
WASHINGTON THIS WEEK, WHICH DREW
HIGH-PROFILE POLITICIANS,
INCLUDING FORMER PRIME MINISTER
STEPHEN HARPER AND VICE
PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE, WHO
REACTED TODAY WITH SURPRISE.
>> WELL, LET ME SAY, THIS IS THE
FIRST I'VE HEARD OF IT.
>> Reporter: THE HEAD OF THE CDC
WHO STOOD BESIDE THE PRESIDENT
DID NOT APPEAR AS CONFIDENT
ABOUT CONTAINMENT AS OFFICIALS
FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.
>> I STILL BELIEVE CONTAINMENT
AND CONTROL IS THE GOAL.
BUT THAT'S GOING TO BE
COMPLIMENTED STRATEGICALLY, THIS
NATION SHOULD NOT GIVE UP ON
CONTAINMENT.
>> Reporter: IN WHAT TURNED OUT
TO BE A REMARKABLE CONVERSATION
WITH THE PRESS, TRUMP
ACKNOWLEDGED HE HAD LITTLE
PUBLIC HEALTH KNOWLEDGE AND HE
ATTACKED THE GOVERNOR OF
WASHINGTON STATE FOR CRITICIZING
THE HANDLING OF THE OUTBREAK.
>> THAT GOVERNOR IS A SNAKE.
>> Reporter: THE U.S. IS RAMPING
UP PRODUCTION OF CORONAVIRUS
TESTS, AIMING TO HAVE 4 MILLION
KITS AVAILABLE BY THE END OF
NEXT WEEK.
>> Ian: AND AMID ALL THIS, YET
ANOTHER SUDDEN WHITE HOUSE STAFF
SHUFFLE.
ACTING CHIEF OF STAFF, MICK
MULVANEY IS OUT, REPLACED BY

TRUMP ANNOUNCED ON TWITTER.
MEADOWS ANNOUNCED LAST YEAR HE

>>> AFTER A TWO-DAY ORDEAL, A
14-YEAR-OLD TORONTO BOY ABDUCTED
ON HIS WAY TO SCHOOL HAS BEEN
FOUND SAFE.
THEY BELIEVE HE WAS TAKEN AS
RETRIBUTION FOR HIS STEP
BROTHER'S DRUG DEBT.
>> RIGHT NOW I'M JUST WAITING TO
HUG HIM.
>> Reporter: THE BOY'S
NEIGHBOURHOOD IS BREATHING A
COLLECTIVE SIGH OF RELIEF TODAY.
HE WAS MISSING FOR ALMOST 40
HOURS BEFORE HIS ALLEGED
ABDUCTORS DROPPED HIM OFF AT A
BARN IN A RURAL AREA NORTH OF
TORONTO.
POLICE FOUND HIM TRAUMATIZED,
BUT ALIVE.
>> OH, MY GOSH, EVERYBODY WAS
JUMPING.
I WAS CRYING.
REJOICING.
JUST HAPPY.
>> HE APPEARED TO BE THE
DISHEVELLED.
TAKEN TO A MEDICAL FACILITY.
HE'S SAFE WITH MOM AND DAD.
>> Reporter: TORONTO POLICE

FAR FROM OVER.
ACCORDING TO INVESTIGATORS, THE
BOY WAS TAKEN AS COLLATERAL FOR
HIS OLDER STEP BROTHER'S DRUG
DEBT.
THEY ALLEGE HE OWES HIGH LEVEL
COCAINE TRAFFICKERS $4 MILLION
AND SKIPPED TOWN.
>> I MEAN NORMALLY ORGANIZATIONS
WOULD GO DIRECTLY AFTER THE
PERSON THEY'RE LOOKING FOR AND
USUALLY STAY AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
>> Reporter: MARCELL WILSON
SPEAKS FROM EXPERIENCE.
>> I'M A FORMER GANG MEMBER,
GANG LEADER.
>> Reporter: BACK IN THE 90s HE
WAS AFFILIATED WITH THE SECT OF
THE BLOODS.
HE TURNED HIS LIFE AROUND NOW
AND ADVOCATES FOR SAFER STREETS.
>> JUST THINK THIS IS A PRIME
EXAMPLE OF WHY NOT TO GET
INVOLVED IN THIS LIFESTYLE.
>> DID YOU THINK HE WAS GOING TO
BE FOUND ALIVE?
>> NO.
DEFINITELY FROM MY LIVED
EXPERIENCE AND THINGS I'VE LIVED
THROUGH IN THE PAST, I WAS
SHOCKED BECAUSE OF THE RISKS NOW
OF WHAT HE KNOWS AND WHAT HE
SAW.
>> Reporter: CHIEF SAUNDERS SAID
THE BOY WILL BE PROTECTED.
>> HE PROBABLY WILL BE THE MOST
WATCHED YOUNG MAN IN THE CITY OF
TORONTO RIGHT NOW, YOU WOULD BE
A FOOL TO TRY TO APPREHEND HIM.
>> Reporter: MEANWHILE, BACK AT
HOME --

RELIEF THAT HE IS SAFE, RELIEF
HE'S BACK, RELIEF WE DON'T HAVE
A HAVE A FUNERAL.

IT, DIDN'T HE.

4500 PEOPLE LIVE HERE ON THE

IT WAS COMMON KNOWLEDGE THAT SHE
AND EVERYTHING HAD BEEN TOGETHER
SINCE SHE WAS 17 AND HE WAS THE
SERIOUS OLDER BOYFRIEND.
HOW ON EARTH DID IT EVER GET TO
MURDER DECADES LATER?
TO HEAR HER SISTERS DESCRIBE IT,
IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS
HAPPENING BEHIND CLOSED DOORS,
YOU'D NEVER BE ABLE TO TELL
THEIR BABY SISTER WAS IN
TROUBLE.

EYE?
>> SHE DIDN'T.
>> Reporter: LIFE MOVED ON.
THE COUPLE STAYED TOGETHER AND
HAD THREE KIDS.
IT WAS HARD.
CRYSTAL HAD PROBLEMS WITH
ALCOHOL.
SO IT SEEMS, TOO, DID IRVING.
HE HAD TWO CHARGES OF IMPAIRED
DRIVING.
THE FIRST OFFICIAL INTERVENTION
BY AUTHORITIES WE COULD FIND WAS
IN 2009.
ONE OF AT LEAST FIVE CONTACT TO
COME OVER THE YEARS WITH
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
FOR ALLEGED DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
EACH TIME THE CASE WAS CLOSED
WITHOUT ANY ACTION.
THE SISTERS SAY THEY KEPT
ENCOURAGING HER TO LEAVE.

DIDN'T LOOK LIKE MY SISTER
ANYMORE.

JUST WANTED TO GIVE UP, BUT SHE
NEVER DID.

THAT.
I SAID, CRYSTAL, I DON'T HAVE A
GOOD FEELING ABOUT THIS, I SAID,
JUST WATCH YOURSELF.

AUGUST 4, I WENT INTO MY
APARTMENT, HE WAS AT THE WINDOW.
THAT NIGHT, HE SHOPPED UP AGAIN
AT MIDNIGHT.
SOMETIMES SEVERAL ENTRIES A DAY
FOR A MONTH, INCLUDING ONE ABOUT
A BREAK-IN WHILE SHE WAS ASLEEP
ON THE COUCH.
>> HE PULLED THE SCREEN OFF AND
SHE WOKE UP TO HIM LEANING DOWN
LIKE THIS CLOSE, SAYING HER
NAME.
>> AND WHAT DID THAT MOMENT
CHANGE?
>> THAT HE, TO ME, HE WASN'T
GOING TO LET HER GO.
IF HE COULDN'T HAVE HER, NO ONE
WAS GOING TO HAVE HER.
>> Reporter: THERE WILL BE WOMEN
IN CANADA WHO RECOGNIZE A
PATTERN.
IN ONTARIO WHERE STATISTICS ARE
COM IPILED THERE ARE KEY WARNING
SIGNS.

HISTORY OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
46% SHOWED SIGNS OF OBSESSIVE
BEHAVIOR.
THERE WERE PREVIOUS THREATS TO
DIE BUY SUICIDE IN 44% OF
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASES.
IRVING HASTEY HAD DONE ALL OF
THESE THINGS AND AUTHORITIES
KNEW IT.
CRYSTAL WRITES ABOUT CONTACTING
THE RCMP.
THE NIGHT HE BROKE IN, SHE WENT
TO GET A PROTECTIVE ORDER.
>> WAS THE PROTECTIVE ORDER A
GOOD THING OR NOT A GOOD THING?
>> SHE DIDN'T THINK IT WAS A
GOOD THING, BECAUSE THE
HARASSMENT, THE CALLS.
>> IT'S JUST A PIECE OF PAPER.
SHE WASN'T STUPID.
SHE KNEW.
>> DID SHE REGRET IT?
>> YES, SHE REGRETTED.
>> Reporter: LEAVING WAS
IMPORTANT, BUT HER SISTERS
BELIEVE IT DIDN'T PROTECT HER.

DANGEROUS MOMENT IN AN ABUSIVE
RELATIONSHIP.

ONTARIO, REVIEW FROM 2003 TO
2017, 67% INVOLVED A COUPLE WITH
ACTUAL OR PENDING SEPARATION.
THE CLAIMS OF CRYSTAL'S SISTERS
THAT THERE WAS VIOLENCE LEADING
UP TO THIS, SOME PEOPLE CLOSE TO
IRVING DENY IT.
IRVING WAS SENTENCED TO 10 YEARS
WITH TIME SERVED HE'LL BE EL I
DIDN'T BELIEVE FOR PAROLE IN
LESS THAN -- ELIGIBLE FOR PAROLE
IN LESS THAN 3.
>> IT WAS A FINAL INSULT WHEN I
WAS TOLD HE'LL BE OUT IN 3 YEARS
AND 7 MONTHS AND HE TOOK MY
SISTER'S LIFE.
WHERE IS THE JUSTICE, RIGHT?
>> Reporter: OF THE MORE THAN 80
PEOPLE IN CANADA KILLED BY A
PARTNER OR FORMER PARTNER IN
2018, CRYSTAL ANN TRACEY
MURDERED ON CHRISTMAS EVE WAS
NOT THE LAST.
JUST AS THE HORROR OF INTIMATE
PARTNER VIOLENCE GOES ON AND ON,
IT WAS ONLY THREE DAYS LATER
THAT THE FINAL HOMICIDE OF THE
YEAR WAS RECORDED IN CANADA.
ANOTHER FAMILY ASKING, HOW DID
IT GET TO MURDER?
>> Ian: WHILE THE STORY IS IN
MANY WAYS ONE OF FAILED SYSTEMS
AND SAFEGUARDS, PROGRESS IS
BEING MADE TO CURB DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE.
WHEN WE COME BACK, HOW PRINCE
EDWARD ISLAND HASN'T HAD A
DOMESTIC HOMICIDE SINCE 2015.
THE PROGRAMME TURNING ENTIRE
COMMUNITIES INTO PROTECTIVE
SHIELDS TO SAVE LIVES.>> Ian: THIS WEEK, O UR SERIES

EXPLORING THE CHALLENGES VICTIMS
FACE, EVEN WHEN THEY GET HELP
LIKE ACCESS TO A SHELTER.

PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND.
IT HASN'T SEEN A DOMESTIC
HOMICIDE IN HALF A DECADE.
SALLY PITT EXPLAINS WHY.
>> HI, I'M KELLY.
>> Reporter: THESE TWO WOMEN
WERE ALMOST KILLED BY THEIR
FORMER PARTNERS.
AND THIS IS THE WOMAN THEY
CREDIT WITH HELPING THEM STAY
ALIVE.
TODAY, THEY'RE WALKING WITH
OTHERS WHO WANT TO SEE AN END TO
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
>> AND HOW ARE YOU DOING,
HANNAH?
>> I'M OKAY.
>> THE IMPORTANT PART WE ALL
PLAY IN THE ELIMINATION OF
FAMILY VIOLENCE.
>> Reporter: HANNAH POVEY AND
KELLY MacAULAY WERE BOTH PART OF
CIRCLE OF SAFETY, A PROGRAMME
UNIQUE TO P.E.I.
IT'S FOR WOMEN WHO ARE AT HIGH
RISK OF BEING KILLED BY THEIR
EXES.
>> TO ALWAYS HAVE THAT ONGOING
CONCERN OF NOT KNOWING WHETHER I
SHOULD BE LOOKING OVER MY
SHOULDER, OR NOT KNOWING IF I
SHOULD BE TAKING DIFFERENT
ROUTES EVERY TIME I WALK
SOMEPLACE IN TOWN.
IT REALLY SUCKS I HAVE TO
CONSIDER THOSE SAFETY MEASURES.
>> MY NAME IS HANNAH POVEY.
I'M A SURVIVOR OF DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE.
>> Reporter: THE CIRCLE OF
SAFETY ASKS THE WOMEN WHAT SHE
NEEDS TO FEEL SAFE, NOT WHAT
OTHERS THINK SHE NEEDS.
IT'S BRINGS TOGETHER PEOPLE IN
HER LIFE WHO CAN HELP MAKE THAT
HAPPEN.
TODAY, IT'S HER CURRENT
BOYFRIEND, A COWORKER AND
GLORIA.
>> WHAT ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT?
>> Reporter: GLORIA DENNIS IS A
SUPPORT WORKER WITH FAMILY
VIOLENCE PREVENTION.
>> I'M WORRIED WITH ELECTRONIC
MONITORING HE MAY END UP GOING
TO STORES HE KNOWS I FREQUENT
AND TRYING TO LOOK FOR ME.
>> Reporter: TO OUTSIDE EYES,
HER BOYFRIEND, WILL, SEEMED
PERFECT, BUT AT HOME HE WAS A
VERY DIFFERENT PERSON.
>> I WAS IN TROUBLE AND I WAS IN
DANGER.
>> GLORIA ASKED ME A QUESTION.
THE QUESTION WAS, DID I FEEL
SAFE IN ANY ROOM OF MY HOME?
AND I ONLY PAUSED FOR A MOMENT
AND RESPONDED BACK AND SAID, NO,
I DON'T FEEL SAFE.
>> Reporter: HANNAH HAD A SAFETY
PLAN WHEN SHE FIRST LEFT WILL.
HE'S IN JAIL NOW, BUT THREE
MONTHS INTO A TWO-YEAR SENTENCE,
HE'S APPLIED FOR RELEASE, SO
SHE'S BRINGING HER CIRCLE
TOGETHER FOR A SECOND TIME.
HER PLAN COULD ALSO INCLUDE
POLICE AND VICTIM SERVICES.
>> I HAD RECEIVED A PHONE CALL
FROM VICTIM SERVICES, WILL HAS
APPLIED FOR PAROLE.
I WAS REALLY TAKEN ABACK HEARING
ABOUT HIM HAVING PAROLE.
>> SHE HASN'T HAD MUCH TIME TO
RECOVER.
>> IT'S NOT YOUR JOB ALONE.
EVERYBODY CAN TAKE A PIECE OF
THIS.
>> HAVING THEM ASK ME QUESTIONS
ABOUT WHAT I WANTED WAS A HUGE
DIFFERENCE TO HOW I HAD LIVED
FOR THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF.
THE CONTROL THAT WAS TAKEN FROM
ME, I'M SLOWLY REGAINING.
>> MY NAME IS KELLY MacAULAY.
I WAS IN AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP
FOR 20 YEARS AND SURVIVED.
>> Reporter: SHE'D LEFT A DOZEN
TIMES, BUT ALWAYS WENT BACK.
>> KICKED IN THE BATHROOM DOOR,
GRABBED ME BY THE HAIR AND THREW
ME UP AGAINST THE WASHER.
ONCE I HEARD HIM GETTING A GUN
FROM UNDER THE BED, I REALLY
THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE.
FOUR YEARS AFTER I LEFT, MY
HUSBAND ENDED UP KILLING HIS
GIRLFRIEND.
>> Reporter: HE WAS FOUND GUILTY
OF SECOND-DEGREE MURDER.
HE APPEALED AND GOT
MANSLAUGHTER.
THAT WAS IN 2015.
IT WAS THE LAST DOMESTIC
HOMICIDE ON PRINCE EDWARD
ISLAND.
>> I GOT A SECOND CHANCE.
I WAS ONE OF THE FIRST PERSONS
TO DO THE CIRCLE OF SAFETY.
I CAN REMEMBER THEM SITTING
AROUND THE TABLE.
ALL THESE PEOPLE, THEY'RE HERE
FOR ME?
I THINK IT KEPT ME ALIVE, YES, I
DO, ABSOLUTELY.
>> Reporter: NOW THE IDEA IS
SPREADING.
GLORIA IS WORKING WITH SHELTERS
IN THREE OTHER PROVINCES SO THEY
CAN SET UP THEIR OWN SAFETY
CIRCLES.
>> IT BRINGS THE CIRCLES OF
SAFETY TO OTHER COMMUNITIES.
IT WOULD BE GREAT TO SEE THAT
BEING UTILIZED ACROSS THE
COUNTRY.
SOMETIMES I SAY IT'S LIKE MY
BABY [LAUGHTER].
I REALLY THINK THAT IF WE WORK
COLLABORATIVELY, WE'RE GOING TO
COME UP WITH BETTER SOLUTIONS.
>> I THINK I'M A STRONGER
PERSON.
I HAVE A VOICE NOW.
I'M NOT SCARED TO SAY ANYTHING
ANYMORE.
>> IT FEELS GOOD TO HAVE SOMEONE
TO HOLD WHO UNDERSTANDS.

THAT ENDED UP A MOMENTOUS
CANADIAN STORY.
>> Ian: HOW THIS 1920s TEAM BEAT
THE ODDS TO WIN CANADA'S FIRST
OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL IN HOCKEY AND
WHY MANITOBANS TODAY ARE
CHEERING THEM ON.
>> Ian: IT IS A STUNNING
UNDERDOG STORY THAT REMAINS
IMPRESSIVE A CENTURY LATER.
IN 1920, THE FALCONS DEFIED THE
ODDS AND RACISM TO BECOME THE
FIRST EVER OLYMPIC CHAMPIONS.
AN ACCOMPLISHMENT THAT WILL BE
HONOURED THAT WEEKEND ON THE ICE
OF LAKE WINNIPEG.
CAMERON MacINTOSH TAKES US
THERE.

TIME.

THE HISTORY.

LOOK AT ME, SKATE ON ME.
>> Reporter: TO MARK IT, SHE'S
PLANNING A GAME HERE.
AS PART OF GIMLI'S ICE FESTIVAL.
>> WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR
COMMUNITY?
>> IF YOU PICK UP THE INTERLAKE
TELEPHONE BOOK, ALL THESE NAMES
THAT WERE THE EIGHT MEN THAT
WENT TO PLAY, THOSE NAMES ARE
STILL HERE.
IT'S STILL WOVEN IN OUR CULTURE.
>> Reporter: DISCRIMINATED
AGAINST FOR THEIR ICELANDIC
HERITAGE, THE FALCONS COULDN'T
FIND A LEAGUE THAT WOULD ACCEPT
THEM.
UNTIL 1920.
JUST BACK FROM THE FIRST WORLD
WAR, THEY BECAME UNLIKELY
CANADIAN AMATEUR CHAMPIONS.
THEN OLYMPIC CHAMPIONS.
>> THIS WAS AN UNDERDOG STORY
THAT ENDED UP BEING A MOMENTOUS
CANADIAN, WORLD STORY.
>> Reporter: WHILE IT WAS THE
WINNIPEG FALCONS, MOST OF THE
PLAYERS HAD STRONG TIES TO
GIMLI.
NOW IT'S 100 YEARS ON THAT HAVE
BEEN KEEPING THE STORY ALIVE.
HALLIE SLIM HALDERSON WAS STEVE
PERKIN'S GRANDFATHER.
THAT'S THE MEDAL.
>> WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY WHEN YOU
SHOW THEM THIS?
>> THEY'RE AMAZED.
IT FASCINATES ME, THE WHOLE
THING.
THEY SWEPT THROUGH THE
TOURNAMENT.
>> Reporter: HE'S DROPPING THE
PUCK SATURDAY.
>> THE RECOGNITION THAT MOST OF
THE ICELANDIC COMMUNITY FELT
THEY NEVER GOT.
>> Reporter: IN REPLICAS OF THE
BLUE AND GREEN SWEATERS, FOUR
TEAMS ARE HITTING THE ICE FOR A
FEW THOUSAND FESTIVAL-GOERS.
>> THE ADVERSITY AND THE
DISCRIMINATION, IT'S SUCH A
GREAT STORY TO SHARE.

BACK TO LIFE IN RESPECT AND
CELEBRATION.
CAMERON MacINTOSH, CBC NEWS,
GIMLI, MANITOBA.
>> Ian: TURNS OUT, LAKE WINNIPEG
IS GOING TO SEE A LOT OF ACTION.
AS IF FIGHTING CANCER WASN'T
GRUELLING ENOUGH, CHRIS HESS
FELD IS FINDING A COOL WAY TO
MARK THE END OF HIS TREATMENT.
>> Ian: TWO YEARS AGO
MANITOBA'S CHRIS EASTFIELD
THOUGHT HIS LIFE WAS OVER,
DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE
IV MELANOMA, HE STARTED PLANNING
HIS FUNERAL AND NOW NOT EVEN
MANITOBA'S FIERCEST WINTER CAN
KEEP HIM DOWN.
TODAY HE'S NEARLY TUMOUR-FREE
AND TOMORROW, HE AND AN OLD
BUDDY WILL RACE ACROSS FROZEN
LAYINFROZENLAKE WINNIPEG TO CELEBRATE AND
THAT IS OUR "MOMENT."
>> I DIDN'T THINK I WAS GOING TO
LIVE.
WHEN YOU ACTUALLY PREPARE
YOURSELF TO DIE AND THEN
SURVIVE, YEAH, YOU WAKE UP AND
EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT.
NOW I'M FEELING FANTASTIC AND
I'M EXTREMELY ACTIVE AGAIN.
I DECIDED AFTER SEEING A POST
FROM A HIGH SCHOOL FRIEND WHO
HAD GONE OUT FOR A RUN IN
WINNIPEG IN -50 TEMPERATURES, I
TOOK ONE LOOK AT THAT PICTURE
AND AS A JOKE SAID, I'LL RACE
YOU ACROSS THE LAKE.
HE KIND OF RESPONDED HA-HA AND A
WEEK LATER, I'M LIKE, WHY DON'T
WE.
TRAINING EVERYDAY, I'VE PROBABLY
RUN SIX KILOMETERS EVERY MONTH.
THERE ARE SIDE EFFECTS FROM THE
TREATMENT, WHICH I JUST FIGHT
THROUGH.
IT'S NOT LIKE I HAVE ALL THE
ANSWERS AT THIS POINT, BUT I'M
EXCITED ABOUT FIGURING IT OUT
AND I'M HAPPY I'M LIVING AND I
JUST PUSH THROUGH.
>> Ian: WHEN HE GOT THE BAD
NEWS FROM THE DOCTOR WHEN THINGS
WERE AT THEIR WORSE, THE NEWS
WAS SO BAD, THE DOCTOR BURST
INTO TEARS.
BUT AS YOU CAN SEE, THINGS
CHANGED DRAMATICALLY AND IT'S
NICE TO FINISH THIS WEEK WITH A
STORY OF HOPE.
THAT IS "THE NATIONAL" THIS
WEEK, MARCH 6th.
GOODNIGHT.
