Global National: Aug. 5, 2024 | Water spilling over BC landslide in Chilcotin River
Water is now spilling over the Chilcotin River landslide, where communities in the BC Interior are anxiously bracing for potentially dangerous flooding. Grace Ke explains what's being done to avoid a worst-case scenario. Tropical storm Debby has hammered northern Florida, killing at least four people. The brutal system made landfall in the U.S. as a Category 1 hurricane. Global News meteorologist Ross Hull looks at where Debby is heading next. The global stock markets have taken a major plunge, with several indexes falling to their lowest marks in years. Bianca Facchinei explains what fuelled the drop and the advice to investors. Sheikh Hasina has resigned as Bangladesh's prime minister and fled the country, after nearly 300 people were killed during weeks of anti-government protests. Heidi Petracek explains what prompted the unrest and the growing worries about Bangladesh's future. Hundreds of people have been arrested in the U.K. for their involvement in riots sparked by the July 29th mass stabbing at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport, England that left three children dead. Crystal Goomansingh reports on the unease among some residents and how British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is trying to calm the unrest. Both the Port of Montreal and the Canada Border Services Agency are rolling out separate, new programs to leverage tracking devices in the fight against auto theft. As Carolyn Jarvis reports, the goal is to use the technology to find stolen cars before they slip through the port to overseas buyers. Plus, Team Canada is having a strong showing at the Paris Olympics, where our athletes have won 17 medals in 10 days, including five golds. Redmond Shannon hears how Summer McIntosh and Ethan Katzberg, two of Canada's gold medallists, are reflecting on their historic accomplishments.
