People in Western Canada are struggling to find relief, as a dangerous, record-breaking heat wave continues to bake the region. Heather Yourex-West reports on the deadly toll the extreme weather is taking and how first responders are being flooded with emergency calls.
As that happens throughout western North America, scientists are expecting more similar, extreme weather events in Canada’s future, as climate change grips the planet. Eric Sorensen explains what’s being forecasted.
Meanwhile, a new report from Natural Resources Canada finds much of the country, including people, companies and governments, is not equipped to handle extreme weather,. As David Akin explains, federal scientists warn action needs to be taken now.
In Florida, the Miami Herald has published photos taken just two days before Champlain Tower collapsed, showing how badly repairs were needed at the Surfside complex. As Jackson Proskow reports, attention is turning to other aging apartment buildings in the Miami area.
Plus, Canada’s actual COVID-19 death toll could be much higher than what’s been recorded, according to a new study by the Royal Society of Canada. Abigail Bimman explains how thousands more fatalities may have gone unreported.
And Wilson 5, the foundation from the family of billionaire and Lululemon founder Chip Wilson, has donated $4 million to the B.C. Parks Foundation, to help preserve and protect the province’s rare forests on three different islands. Robin Gill reports.

800 billion dollars and no Air conditioning for the old folks who you "care so much for" as a government who acknowledges Global warming as a threat. Is it so hard to see. Makes global warming a national issue. Ignores it. Lol GLOBAL news alright.
One 4 day heat wave = world ending climate change. LETS ALL PANIC.
It's called summer you idiots!!!!
Beware of billionaires bearing gifts. Every "gift" by billionaires is really an investment of some kind. Let billionaires pay their decent share of taxes.
People,stage #2 Climate change How many rabbit will support this rubbish. Climate always play it's ways. No human factor. Maybe dinosaur factor play huge role too? They were really hungry and eat and poo a lot Co2. Soo? Did they change anything? No. That is the fact. Scientists start new lie.
Stop the adds now. Why you not stop this site YouTube No Good reason have Billions of dollars from sponsors and us.
They are destroying our planet. They destroy our food, water, air. THEY are doing this. Causing fires, drought, killing crops. Their agenda is also global starvation. Wake up and rise up.
It's not climate change, it's called weather.
Oh my, COVID causes climate change! Or does climate change cause COVID? Thanks for putting it in the COVID section you useless tools!
Siberia must be bearable now!!!
Poor Lytton 😭
Do you know we’re it’s not hot, underground
Stop greenhouse gases stop having kids
Lockdown reopen lockdown reopen lockdown reopen, does anyone see the stupidity here
all fake! a psy op , do not buy into this scam, they just want to take more of your freedoms
F#$$ the govt and all those who were warned YEAR'S AGO, we are always BEHIND what emissions SHOULD be. The govt are the worst criminals against the environment
I didn't know the heat from the sun could literally kill people,it's ever shinning here in Africa.
This is what happens when science is playing God. They are deliberately destroying the planet. The damage is already done.
34 years ago, in 1987, GPDC received a similar message from the Creator. GOD’S(non religion ) JUDGEMENT UPON HUMAN BEINGS HAS BEGUN, ALTHOUGH DOOMSDAY IS OVER.
This Judgement affects nature in the entire world.
For instance, temperatures would change from cold to hot and hot to cold, floods, accidents involving fire, earthquakes and diseases which are unexpected and incurable.
Beloved brothers and sisters in Christ know that your the lost sheep the tribes repent and come out of Babylonian aka world Confussing sinful wicked and repent put the blood of Jesus you make it put your faith in Jesus repent Lord day is at hand
If you are looking for a way to help the environment you can use ecosia they are a search engine that plants trees
You can always depend on Global to bring the extreme exaggerations. They are known as a joke in Canada & always to be taken with a grain of salt. They are an embarrassment to real news & will bring to the people any news, basically whatever it takes to get you to read. Cheers
Is extreme weather more prevelant?
Better increase the carbon tax.
Flatten the curve!
(Sarcasm)
Australia had it's 2nd coolest June on record.
That would be good news if the moderna vaccine is proven to offer protection against the the delta variant. Results gleaned from an 8 person study would be inconsequential.
The best part is absolutely nothing is changing, factories never shutdown, industry never sleeps and the population continues to explode.
I guess why care or even try to change right?? The sad few greedy corrupted souls doomed life and simply decided that blocking the sun is good enough for them, live life full of pleasure packed joy from all the corrupted dollars earned while the world burns and billions suffer!
Humans are just the best, our smartest brightest selfless stars of society are at the top dictating what goes on,..oh wait wait oh my mistake. Its the heartless corrupt filthy trash that rises up and corrupts destroys everything , new era same filth wiyhin acting out the same tale again and again
This earth is Burning 🔥
Do cars in your country have air conditioning?? Get in to it and switch on AC and take rest for a while.. dont die..
Just hang in there. This is the effect of Climate change.
The scientists don't know shat. Scare mongering for money. Kinda like religion has been doing for the past few centuries. Preach that you will burn in Hell unless you do as you are told and fork over your cash.
I hate the Heat. If it's going to continue getting hotter, perhaps its time for us Canadians to begin moving up north. Most of us live south
It’s normal for the people of Middle East
It's going to be 70 degree Celsius in next 40 years be prepared Canada
U news people u need 2go stupide like cop doctor judge lawyer all dat shit.i gonna enjoy my revage .have a good time Vancouver cacanada.
"oh tHe eARth IS jUST nATUrallY cHAngING"
As there are basically giant cigars pumping out smoke into the air
GUYS WE NEED GOD,s HELP PRAY SO EARTH WILL NO LONGER GET HURT
For us in Lithuania it’s 30 degrees it’s really high for our country our country usually has like 20 degrees at summer
Kinda funny one of the strategies is building houses with airconditioning, while airconditioning has such an energyconsumption it will increase Co2 output even more.
Yup cause this is totally happening naturally 🤣
Your staff at the weather forecasting should all be mandated to read Steven E. Koonin's book "Unsettled" to get a much better understanding of climate data over the past century and learn that this latest heat done experience may be exceptional
This summer, the weather in the Middle East is mild, and it was not like that before
Cold or hot it's going to be about Climate Change….but you already know that. Climate has changed for millions of years….still no proof humans are to blame! Pandemic is the new ticket to globalism! Wake up people…they have lied from the start…
This must be the beginning of the "Climate Change" CNN director was running his mouth about being their next propaganda push when caught by Project Veritas on hidden camera while on a "tinder date." Haha the people are on to you!
Back to god please you people

Oh please. This isnt climate change. Google dirty thirties and youll see what i mean
There are many cataclysms happening all over the world. This is called cyclicality. In order for people to be able to survive cataclysms, it is necessary to unite and create a Creative Society. This is a project aimed at uniting people around the world. More detailed information can be obtained by watching the conference: Global Crisis. This already affects everyone.
95% of these fires are man caused. Deal with that
This Caused Australia 🇦🇺 And New Zealand To Go Into Deep Freeze
