Hey, I'm Johanna Wagstaff. And

0:02

hi there, I'm Rohith Joseph. And we're asking

0:04

for 10 minutes of your day to go through the 10

0:07

things that the UN recommends we can all

0:09

do when it comes to climate change. Please

0:11

don't leave. No! And also

0:13

the things aren't new. We

0:15

are just wired to not do them. We

0:17

promise you to help you figure out

0:20

your brains and you and your people

0:22

can make better choices to combat climate

0:24

change. 10 minutes to Save

0:26

the Planet is available now on CBC Listen

0:28

and everywhere you get your podcasts. This

0:32

is a CBC Podcast. He's

0:41

already here. Do you know where he'll be coming from? He

0:43

came in this way and then just ewed in. So he's

0:45

in favor. Yeah. I'm on board with you

0:47

guys. Yeah. But just no profanity.

0:51

To serve and protect and when it comes to protests,

0:53

no taking sides. An

0:55

Ontario Provincial Police Officer is under review

0:58

after getting a little too cozy

1:00

with a man protesting the Prime

1:02

Minister, sharing his own political views

1:04

and possibly sensitive security information. Welcome

1:07

to Your World Tonight. I'm Tom Harrington. It

1:09

is Friday, April 26, coming up

1:11

on 6pm Eastern Time. Also

1:14

on the podcast. This is a piece

1:16

of legislation that will undermine local democracy.

1:20

Backlash in Alberta over the province's

1:22

plan to take more control over

1:24

municipalities, including the power to replace

1:26

councillors and repeal bylaws. Plus... You

1:29

know, certainly look at the positive, but I'm also

1:32

like right away, okay, what's next?

1:34

After being trapped for weeks in a

1:36

BC lagoon, a stranded orca whale gets

1:38

closer to the open ocean and

1:40

her pod. The

1:48

Ontario Provincial Police are reviewing video

1:50

of an on-duty officer expressing solidarity

1:52

with an anti-Trudo protester. The interaction

1:54

happened this week and it's raising

1:56

questions about the safety of the

1:58

Prime Minister The

2:00

professionalism of the police. Tom

2:02

Perry has our top story. Rotors

2:05

for Justin Trudeau here at

2:07

a high end of when

2:09

our said wherever. Justin Trudeau

2:11

goes these days. protesters are almost

2:13

sure to follow. So when the

2:15

Prime Minister arrived in Alice in

2:17

Ontario this week to announce a

2:19

big new investment in the auto

2:21

sector, he was greeted by a

2:23

small but noisy groups shouting, waving

2:25

their As Crudo flags and broadcasting

2:27

all of it on social media.

2:29

you at our church or to

2:31

use get a car without. He's

2:35

already guaranteed our heal because I'm in

2:37

this way. And then the students or

2:39

or one protester recording. A brief

2:42

conversation with an Ontario Provincial Police

2:44

officer who let them know the

2:46

Prime Minister has already arrived and

2:48

then keeps talking about the semi

2:50

a favor. Yeah, I'm on board

2:52

with you guys, Yeah, but just

2:54

know for. The

2:56

conversation continues with the officer assuring

2:58

the protesters there are six thousand

3:00

Oh Pp members and he's pretty

3:02

sure it's not all of them

3:05

voted for Trudeau. After some more

3:07

banter, the protester goes on his

3:09

way and thanks the officer. For

3:11

his support today, the Oh Pp

3:13

responded. Acting Staff Sergeant Robert Simpson

3:15

says the force is aware of

3:18

the online post and the matter

3:20

is under review. The video has

3:22

raised concerns about professionalism and he

3:24

picks opinions that are not in

3:27

line with the Opie Piece values.

3:29

Charles Bordello, the former Chief of

3:31

the Ottawa Police Service, has seen

3:33

the videos and has two main

3:36

concerns: Once that the officer may

3:38

have disclosed operational information by telling

3:40

the. protester where the pm drove

3:42

in and to that the officer

3:44

appeared to be taking sides are

3:46

he's express our own personal opinions

3:48

on a certain matter to us

3:50

who have a favor with the

3:53

demonstrators and nuggets as inappropriate for

3:55

police officer to do that prime

3:57

minister justin trudeau wouldn't comment on

3:59

the video today, saying only that

4:01

in Canada, there is a right to

4:03

peaceful protest. The ability to throw

4:06

out insults at the person of the

4:08

prime minister is something that is protected

4:10

here in Canada and is really important

4:12

for people to be

4:14

able to express themselves.

4:16

During the convoy protests of

4:19

2022, another OPP officer was

4:21

caught on video expressing his

4:23

support for the protest movement.

4:26

Charles Bordelow says police need to

4:28

stay neutral and above all professional,

4:30

keeping in mind that these days,

4:32

chances are they're on camera. Tom

4:35

Perry, CBC News, Ottawa. Local

4:38

elections and governments in Alberta's cities and towns

4:41

may never be the same. A bill

4:43

proposed by the United Conservative government

4:46

would give the province far-reaching powers

4:48

over municipalities. As Julia

4:50

Wong tells us, the municipal affairs

4:52

minister says it's about accountability, but

4:54

opponents are calling it undemocratic.

4:57

The proposed amendments to the Municipal Government Act

4:59

will give... If Bill 20 becomes law,

5:01

the province's cabinet would have the ability to

5:03

force the local government to change or amend

5:06

bylaws it doesn't like. Alberta

5:08

municipal affairs minister Rick MacIver. We

5:10

are doing this in order to protect the

5:12

provincial interests by ensuring municipalities are governing affairs

5:15

that are within their jurisdiction. The bill

5:17

would also give Alberta's cabinet the authority

5:19

to dismiss a councillor if it's in

5:21

the public interest, though MacIver could not

5:23

define exactly what that is. Well,

5:25

what's in the public interest would be

5:27

a case-by-case basis. The cabinet makes a

5:29

flippant decision, or one that the public

5:32

thinks is, you called

5:34

it a witch-hunt. I think that the

5:36

cabinet would be at great risk of

5:38

being held accountable at the next general

5:40

provincial election. Municipalities get

5:43

their powers from provincial legislation. They've cleared

5:45

the pathway to relatively

5:47

speedy and efficient

5:49

interference. But this level

5:52

of involvement is concerning, according to University

5:54

of Alberta law professor Eric Adams. A

5:56

number of decisions would be made around the cabinet

5:59

table. would not be debated in

6:01

the legislature, would not be necessarily subject

6:03

to public scrutiny, and

6:05

a city would have to either

6:08

comply or have a city councilor

6:10

removed or have a city law

6:12

change. That's a fairly extraordinary level

6:14

of provincial power at this city

6:16

level. In Edmonton, where all

6:18

the MLAs are from the NDP... I'm not

6:20

sure why we think it's entirely appropriate

6:22

for a provincial cabinet without representation from

6:25

Edmonton to step in and say, well,

6:27

we know what's best for that city.

6:29

The devil will be in the details,

6:32

as Brendan Boyd, a political scientist at

6:34

McEwing University. May not be a

6:36

huge deal. It depends on how

6:38

often it's used. Though Edmonton city councilor

6:40

Joanne Wright says she worries about the

6:42

possible ripple effect. And I

6:44

wonder, in some cases, with

6:47

that then, maybe change

6:49

councilor's way of

6:51

voting. Maybe voting not in their

6:54

public's interest, but in order to

6:56

keep their job. For the Edmontonians,

6:58

casting ballots makes reaction. If

7:01

you're not doing anything wrong, you shouldn't fear the

7:04

legislation. I

7:07

think that using power in

7:10

a way that's not great. I

7:12

think that they could create new

7:14

bylaws that are more specific

7:16

to what they would want. The bill

7:18

would also ban electronic voting machines and

7:20

set the stage for political parties on

7:23

the local level, with the pilot project

7:25

in Edmonton and Calgary. The Alberta

7:27

government says it will work on regulations

7:29

and consultation with municipalities in the coming

7:31

months if the legislation passes.

7:34

Julia Wong, CBC News, Edmonton.

7:37

B.C.'s premier says public drug use will

7:39

no longer be allowed in the province.

7:42

David Evey made the announcement today,

7:44

saying a decriminalization pilot project has

7:46

compromised public safety. The drugs

7:48

that we're seeing in our communities are more dangerous

7:51

and more deadly than ever before. People

7:54

have transitioned from injecting drugs to

7:57

inhaling drugs. The impacts

7:59

are very real on

8:02

communities. Elicited

8:04

drugs and hard drugs should

8:07

not be used where kids are playing, where

8:09

patients are recovering, where

8:12

community life is lived. The

8:15

NDP government has been under fire

8:17

from health workers, police and some

8:19

municipal politicians over open drug use.

8:22

E.B. says people will still be allowed

8:24

to use illicit and hard drugs in

8:26

private spaces and sanctioned addiction

8:28

and overdose prevention sites. More

8:31

and more Canadians are falling into poverty. That

8:34

is the harsh reality revealed in new

8:36

numbers from Statistis Canada. They show nearly

8:38

10% of Canadians live below

8:40

the poverty line, a 3% jump

8:43

from the previous year which nearly

8:45

matches pre-pandemic numbers. As Paula

8:47

Duhatric tells us, even buying daily

8:49

essentials such as food is out

8:52

of reach for too many Canadians. Yeah,

8:55

so we just package eggs. We

8:57

do three per bag. Thirty-year-old Alyssa Gosling

8:59

is sorting food at Toronto's Fort York

9:01

Food Bank. She's been a volunteer since

9:03

last summer and is also a client

9:05

herself. Sometimes you just need the help

9:07

and it's okay to ask. And

9:09

a lot more people who are in our position are

9:11

also collecting from food banks who never

9:13

thought they would have to. Yeah, so

9:15

Friday is one of our busiest days

9:18

at the food bank. Food Bank Executive

9:20

Director Julie Lejeune says before the pandemic,

9:22

they had about a thousand clients a

9:24

week. Now they have more than 5,000. She's

9:27

not surprised to see New Statistics Canada data

9:29

showing the country's poverty rate is on the

9:31

rise and so is the share of Canadians

9:33

who don't have enough to eat. You'll

9:36

have a part-time job or a minimum

9:38

wage job and it's just not enough.

9:40

I had expected these numbers to go up but

9:43

it's sickening to see how much they've gone

9:45

up. Valerie Tarasic leads the University

9:48

of Toronto's PROOF research lab on food

9:50

insecurity. She says nearly a quarter of

9:52

Canadians are dealing with the problem in

9:54

some form. Some people are

9:56

worried about running out of groceries. Others

9:58

are skipping meals and going... days

10:00

without eating. We're now looking at a

10:02

prevalence of severe food insecurity of 6% in this

10:04

country. And

10:06

we've never seen anything close to that in the

10:09

past. She says the rise in food insecurity was

10:11

due in part to the end of COVID-19 benefits,

10:13

but mostly because the

10:15

cost of shelter, gas and groceries went

10:17

up faster than people could afford. Nick

10:20

Gennary is executive director of Feed Nova

10:22

Scotia, where food insecurity is highest in

10:24

the country. They're getting there sometimes

10:26

one to two hours before the food bank

10:29

opens because they don't want to be left

10:31

out. And

10:33

just people are just getting more

10:35

and more desperate. Quebec meanwhile had

10:37

the lowest rate of food insecurity.

10:39

Tarasic says that's because that province

10:41

has a strong social safety net.

10:44

So every day, Monday through Friday, we receive

10:47

about 10 to 12 scared from

10:49

daily bread. Back at the Fort

10:51

York food bank, Julie LeGen knows

10:53

grocery boxes and takeaway meals are

10:55

temporary solutions to bigger problems. Some

10:57

of the things are we need better paying jobs, we

11:00

need better housing. For now, though, she hopes

11:02

the warm meal will make daily life a

11:04

little bit easier. Paula Duhacek,

11:06

CBC News, Calgary. Coming

11:12

up, a stranded orca whale in British Columbia

11:15

has freed itself from a tidal lagoon, but

11:17

survival still won't be easy. From

11:20

Mumbai to Manila, a brutal heat wave

11:22

is scorching South Asia. Later,

11:24

Paul Hunter is in Jamaica with Canadian

11:26

troops who've been training foreign forces who'll

11:28

soon be on the ground in Haiti.

11:37

The Grand Chief of the Assembly of

11:39

First Nations says it was a humiliating

11:41

experience. She was talking about

11:43

an incident on a recent Air Canada flight

11:46

when the cabin crew tried to take away

11:48

her ceremonial headdress. Chief

11:50

Cindy Woodhouse-Nipinak is accusing the

11:52

airline of insensitivity and

11:54

its prompted calls for change, even from

11:56

the Prime Minister. Cameron McIntosh

11:59

has the details. We went

12:01

through the gate, we made it onto the plane. A

12:04

short flight, Montreal to Fredericton. Of course I

12:06

had my headdress, so I had my headdress

12:08

case and my belongings and

12:10

put them on the plane as per usual. When she

12:13

flies, National Chief Cindy Woodhouse-Nipinak

12:15

takes her ceremonial headdress as

12:17

a carry-on. It's never been

12:19

a problem before. They wanted to put it down

12:21

below and of course it's got cultural significance to

12:23

me and in that point I was kind of

12:25

stunned. Woodhouse says that led

12:27

to a heated exchange with aircrew as she

12:29

explained what the large beaded feathered headdress was.

12:32

I pulled out my headdress, I thought well

12:34

I'm not going to let them take that from me, they're

12:37

going to pry it from me. And why

12:39

she was uncomfortable stowing it. And then they

12:41

took my case and they put it in

12:43

garbage bags and then they took it away

12:45

from me. She kept the headdress on her

12:47

lap but the case was put in a

12:49

large clear bag, stowed in the baggage compartment.

12:52

She says the captain made sure she got

12:54

the case back promptly after the plane landed.

12:57

I think we'll need to develop a

12:59

protocol for First Nation. In a statement

13:01

Air Canada apologized, saying carrying the case

13:03

in the cabin was difficult due to

13:06

stowage space limitations. The

13:08

plane, a turboprop driven dash-8, has

13:10

limited cabin space compared to other

13:12

commercial planes. The case, the

13:14

size of a large duffel bag, is

13:17

at the limits of carry-on size. Air

13:19

safety regulations give the crew final

13:21

say over what can fly in

13:24

the cabin. Perhaps it was the

13:26

staff members doing their job and

13:28

just not having awareness. Leonard Weasel

13:30

Traveler is the elder who presented

13:32

Woodhouse Deepenac with the headdress earlier

13:34

this year. He says

13:36

there needs to be greater education

13:38

and allowance for items like it.

13:40

Cindy felt, she was violated, she

13:43

felt a dagger through her heart. Other

13:47

indigenous leaders have weighed in, saying they've

13:49

had similar experiences with headdresses. Air

13:52

Canada says it's reviewing its policies. Obviously

13:54

it's unacceptable. The Prime Minister calls it

13:57

a lesson in reconciliation. unfortunate

14:00

situation that I hope is going to lead to

14:02

a bit of learning, not

14:04

just by Air Canada, but a lot of

14:06

different institutions. One thing that was encouraging says

14:09

Woodhouse and Ypnepak, other passengers who stood up

14:11

for her. It's not like people just sat

14:13

there and were quiet. People were trying genuinely

14:16

to help and to say just let

14:18

her be. She's not doing anything. She

14:21

says that makes her optimistic about

14:23

reconciliation and flying again. Cameron

14:26

McIntosh, CBC News, Winnipeg.

14:29

April is just the start of summer

14:31

in South Asia, but it's already far

14:33

hotter than usual. The region is

14:35

in the middle of a brutal heat wave. Hundreds

14:37

of millions are suffering. Ananram explains

14:39

why the danger to public health

14:42

is rising like the temperatures. Rickshaw

14:46

drivers work the crowded streets of Dhaka

14:49

even as the scorching heat presses down

14:51

on them. Every

14:53

two trips I need to take a rest and drink

14:55

water, this driver says. The severe

14:57

heat wave has engulfed Bangladesh and its

14:59

capital all week, even forcing schools to

15:02

shut down, affecting tens of millions of

15:04

children. We have multiple corners together. Riaz

15:06

Hussein Khan is a scientist in Dhaka

15:09

who has studied heat vulnerability. Temperatures reached

15:11

as high as 42 degrees

15:13

Celsius this week, but Khan says

15:15

the added danger, the extreme humidity. If

15:18

it is high heat, then we feel

15:20

bad, but not that much. But when

15:22

it is really humid, we sweat, but

15:24

it doesn't go away. Khan has even

15:26

heard of air conditioners exploding under the

15:28

stress of this heat wave across South

15:30

and Southeast Asia. Heat stroke,

15:32

killing people in Thailand. In Vietnam, officials

15:34

warning people not to go out during

15:36

the peak sun. And

15:40

in India, fans inside polling stations try

15:43

to keep people cool as they participate

15:45

in the biggest democratic event on the

15:47

planet, that country's general election. This

15:50

voter says no matter how hot the weather,

15:53

it's extremely important to cast ballots. But the

15:55

heat is not easy for politicians either, with

15:57

one even fainting on stage earlier this week.

16:00

week. Those temperatures are made four

16:02

or five times more likely by the

16:05

influence of climate change. Peter Girard is

16:07

with the U.S.-based nonprofit Climate Central. He

16:09

says El Niño, which warms waters in

16:11

the Pacific, is still having an effect

16:14

on the extreme heat we've seen this

16:16

year. But even without it, human-influenced climate

16:18

change is making these events worse. We

16:20

expect this to continue, and these events

16:23

to last longer and become more intense.

16:25

And that means the human health impact

16:27

is only expected to become more severe.

16:31

Back in Dhaka, relief is coming. The

16:33

National Meteorological Department expecting a good chance

16:36

of rain, but it won't last. But

16:38

after that, there will be another heat

16:40

wave. Come to the middle

16:42

of me, yeah. Meaning people will still need

16:44

to find ways to beat the heat in

16:47

a city that Khan points out has little

16:49

open space, making it a sweltering concrete jungle.

16:53

Anand Ram, CBC News, Toronto. The

16:55

Canadian military is wrapping up a mission

16:58

in Jamaica, training foreign troops going into

17:00

Haiti. Months of gang

17:02

violence have destabilized that country, leading to

17:04

the creation of a transitional council now

17:06

in power. Paul Hunter traveled

17:09

to Jamaica for an exclusive look at the

17:11

work the Canadian troops have been doing. At

17:18

an old prison compound outside Kingston,

17:20

Jamaica, the sound of gunfire, along

17:22

with shouting helicopters and military vehicles

17:24

racing across the terrain. It's

17:27

the culmination of four weeks of

17:29

military training for troops from Jamaica,

17:31

Bahamas and Belize under the guidance

17:33

of Canadian forces, mostly from Valcartier,

17:36

Quebec. All of it with

17:38

a singular goal in mind, Haiti. Its

17:40

capital now all but overrun by

17:42

paramilitary gangs. The Canadian forces

17:45

have spent four weeks training their counterparts

17:47

from the three Caribbean countries to get

17:49

them set to go into Haiti in

17:51

a mission to be led by troops

17:53

from Kenya. Today's

17:56

final exercise meant to simulate what

17:58

they might encounter in Haiti. capital

18:00

Port-au-Prince was extremely realistic,

18:03

though no live ammunition was

18:05

used. It highlighted a key

18:07

aspect of the Canadian training, first

18:09

aid in a combat zone, keeping

18:12

a careful eye on all of it. Military

18:14

and government leaders from a number of

18:16

countries, including, of course, Jamaica, giving

18:18

thanks today to the work from Canada. It

18:21

has been phenomenal. I think it has demonstrated

18:23

the Canadian government's

18:26

very real commitment to ensuring that it

18:28

is a part of creating change in

18:30

Haiti. But says Camita

18:32

Johnson-Smith, Jamaica's Foreign Affairs Minister, more

18:34

is needed from Canada and other

18:37

countries before these troops could deploy

18:39

alongside those from Kenya. What

18:41

we do need is the financial

18:43

support and equipment support from our

18:45

larger developed countries to make sure

18:48

that they are force effective when

18:50

they deploy. And for the

18:52

Caribbean troops, that's a key factor on

18:54

timing. And so the question of when

18:56

they'll go into Haiti remains unclear. The

18:58

head of the Canadian Forces contingent here,

19:00

Tariq Massous, told CBC for the

19:02

moment, this work is done.

19:05

I feel good about it. It is absolutely

19:07

a tremendous commitment by

19:09

Canada, and we delivered

19:11

on that commitment. In

19:14

Haiti, the challenges are enormous. Well-armed

19:17

paramilitary groups now control almost all

19:19

of the capital. Hundreds of

19:21

thousands of Haitians live in misery

19:23

and fear of killing, kidnapping, sexual

19:26

assault and starvation. The work

19:28

ahead in that country, whenever it comes,

19:30

is daunting. The hope is that the

19:32

training for the Caribbean troops now complete

19:34

will allow for the work in Haiti to begin as

19:36

soon as possible. It's a start. Paul

19:40

Hunter, CBC News, Kingston, Jamaica. The

19:57

United Nations closed one case and suspended

20:00

three internal investigations into its workers

20:02

in Gaza. Israel has accused

20:04

19 unraw workers of

20:06

participating in the October 7th attacks.

20:09

A United Nations spokesperson says one

20:11

case was closed because Israel provided

20:13

no evidence to support the allegations.

20:16

Another three cases were suspended because

20:18

there isn't enough information from Israel.

20:21

The UN continues to investigate allegations

20:23

against 15 other workers of the

20:25

aid agency. You

20:28

know that trapped whale we've been telling you

20:30

about in BC? Well some good tidings for

20:32

you. The baby orca stuck in

20:34

a lagoon on North Vancouver Island is

20:36

one swim closer to freedom. The

20:38

CBC's Tanya Fletcher has the latest developments

20:40

and a look at the challenges still

20:43

ahead. For

20:46

weeks experts and locals alike have

20:48

been monitoring her every movement. Quisa

20:51

Hayas or brave little hunter has been

20:53

swimming alone in the quiet lagoon of

20:55

a remote inlet near Zabelas on the

20:57

west coast of Vancouver Island. But

21:01

early this morning at high tide a

21:03

big development. The two-year-old orca

21:05

finally swam free all on her own. The

21:07

ahead of that First Nation says a handful

21:10

of people watched in awe at 2 30

21:13

a.m. as the young orca made her escape.

21:15

She swam past the very sandbar where her

21:18

mother died then under the bridge and down

21:20

the inlet. Some positive news for

21:22

sure right? The Vancouver Aquarium's Martin

21:24

Kelena has been one of the

21:26

lead veterinarians involved helping the teens

21:28

on site as complex rescue plans

21:30

were crafted. Weeks ago they tried

21:32

and failed. A delicate operation

21:35

involving a sling, a crane and

21:37

a flatbed truck was called off

21:39

because the whale just didn't cooperate.

21:41

Since then they've been trying to fine-tune their

21:44

rescue efforts all while monitoring her health. You

21:46

know we were really worried the animal was not eating

21:48

with losing body condition skin was deteriorating. But

21:50

now the best case scenario. You

21:53

know certainly look at the positive but I'm

21:55

also like right away okay what's next? And

21:57

that is the big question looming. What's

21:59

next? The Federal Department of

22:01

Fisheries and Oceans. Is crews are now working to

22:03

coax squeeze the he has. Further towards the

22:06

open ocean. They're working with first

22:08

nations. Whale Watchers researchers in boaters

22:10

to track the location of the

22:12

Young Wales Pod. So this young

22:14

whale being by it faces several

22:16

challenges. The first will be finding

22:18

food says well there Myself with

22:20

the group for research. And education

22:22

on marine mammals in tobacco. The

22:24

second will be signing her family.

22:26

It can take a long time. In

22:29

the meantime he he might meet other

22:31

group being adopted as a transition T

22:33

and other experts agree. It is possible

22:35

for her to successfully reintegrate, but a

22:37

lot of things still need. To go

22:39

right, the reason for optimism is history.

22:42

There have been at least two incident

22:44

of this type that I've known her

22:46

off over the last twenty years. Eventually

22:49

to Wales did find their family group.

22:51

They survive so chances are that fits

22:53

well, can make it. He says these

22:55

situations always come down to one choice

22:58

whether to let nature take it's course

23:00

or proceed with human intervention. In this

23:02

case, experts have already intervened by seeding

23:05

the young well while it was in

23:07

the lagoon. Now the ability to

23:09

help is diminishing of the outcome. No

23:12

less significant because this population

23:14

is so endangered. De Sade.

23:17

Or to survival of even one

23:19

single individual is is not trivial.

23:21

So while one. Chapter thinnest The

23:23

Story of Quiz The here. Is

23:26

nowhere near over and you

23:28

flutter. Cbc News Vancouver. We

23:32

will enter nice with a mystery,

23:34

a Canadian family and the Scottish

23:36

Highlands. Peering through the midst of

23:38

a fables Macinnis I just put

23:41

out and saw something and. And

23:44

Yemeni logically started thinking it could be as feel

23:46

at the a beaver it to be an otter.

23:49

Sat. in wiseman and perry mom told

23:51

her tail to cbc vancouver's on the

23:53

coast for brown about what they saw

23:55

swear they saw a few weeks back

23:57

after visiting scholar and with they're too

23:59

young so Some sort of creature

24:01

in the water. But how

24:03

big? What colour? What shape? A mirage?

24:06

A monster? A moose? It

24:09

was probably... I don't

24:11

know. It was bigger than

24:13

a Sasquatch, but smaller than Ogopogo.

24:18

Easy for Canadians to joke about, but

24:20

serious stuff for the Scots. The visitors

24:22

had pictures and immediately turned them over

24:25

to local authorities. And

24:27

I found the official Loch Ness

24:29

sightings registry, which I'm sure many

24:32

listeners frequent on a regular basis.

24:36

Didn't think about it until the next day when

24:38

the Loch Ness people got

24:42

back to me and they go, oh, we've

24:44

had this verified by one of our experts and

24:46

this is like the first confirmed sighting this year.

24:49

From there, the media ran with it.

24:52

For British tabloids, this is right up there with

24:55

misbehaving footballers and the royals. Nessie

24:58

in view read the Scottish sun. Family

25:00

snaps compelling photo, according to the

25:02

Daily Mirror. Wiseman and Mom

25:05

still aren't exactly sure what

25:07

they saw. But Nessie or not,

25:09

they've added their own contribution to

25:11

one of the world's most enduring legends. This

25:14

has been Your World Tonight for Friday, April 26th. I'm
