We were invited into the home of Abel Mwansa, who lost his 12-year-old in the Tumbler Ridge mass shooting. It was a heartbreaking - and moving - conversation about his son and how he is coping. Our story for @CBCTheNational is around 5:30 here: youtu.be/wTuXJZCFJ9k?si=u77t…

Johnny was a genuine nice guy. He may have been a coach, but he was one of the best cheerleaders in the newsroom. He will be missed by so many.
A sad announcement from our team. Underneath John Sexsmith's jovial demeanour was a steely resolve to give 110% in his fight against prostate cancer. For over a decade he won countless battles, but on Friday, succumbed to the disease. John was just 63. globalnews.ca/news/11483200/…

There is nothing on earth like watching a 5 yr old learn how to whistle at a Hermit crab to get it to come out of its shell. And then to watch him do it over and over again despite getting pinched repeatedly.
