And pose a real threat. Yellowknife is now blanketed in smoke and fires are burning close to the one major road into and out of the city. Rebecca alty is the mayor of yellowknife. She told us what things were like there. Right now, its residents are evacuating by road. As many people as possible are doing that. Theres also, for folks who dont have vehicles, we are starting the air evacuations, so flights. We still have commercial flights, so some people have booked onto a commercial flight, but we have the Evacuation Flights also starting at 1pm. So getting folks registered for that just began an hour ago. So folks have been good, theres long line ups i think there was kilometres worth of a line up, so a bit of a snail� s place out of town, its just one road in, one road out. That highway is where the fire is, so the highway can close. But right now, it is open. If the conditions change, if the smoke gets too heavy, if the fire were to approach the highway, the highway would be closed and then the evacuation would be fully by air. Its a really big effort and i cant thank everybody working on this enough. I spoke to dale beguin, executive Vice President of the Canadian Climate Institute who explained how these new fires compared to others that have hit the region. Well, this has been a summer of wildfires here in canada. Weve seen levels of burnt area that is more almost double what its been in any other Previous Year in the last a0 years. And the north has been hit particularly hard all summer long. So weve seen smoke through the country. Weve seen evacuations. This is the one that is coming close to a big city. Obviously, the human and economic costs arejust staggering. Now, i mean, how can canada better prepare for wildfires . As you just said, this has been a historic summer, you know, and other climate related disasters. Well, i mean, its really a combination of both continuing our efforts to reduce emissions, deliver on canadas climate objectives, to contribute to global efforts to stave off even worse impacts of Climate Change, while at the same time preparing for the climate thats already baked in, the impacts that are already coming from historical emissions. And that puts the imperative on adaptation and preparing for these kinds of climate shocks, and becoming resilient to them as best we can. Those are both big to dos and both big focuses of the canadian government right now. Well, what can the canadian government do right now . Some of these issues, as you said, are already baked in, but what can be done now . Well, theres a new National Adaptation strategy that the government has announced this year, and is working to implement. It needs some more funding, but its already got measures like enhancing programmes to do natural burns, to support indigenous groups in burning land and traditional ways that can help stop the spread of these wildfires. That being said, theres tonnes of work to do, and tonnes of land in canada. So this is a bigger problem than any of these Smaller Solutions really have, and its something that canada will have to reckon with moving forward with. Now im sorry to say that the Logging Industry rather is a powerful one in the country. What can they do to slow down the spread of fires . Yeah, interesting question. I mean, this is a thing that the logging and the Forestry Industry thinks about a lot, and they try to build in practices into their activities that both enable regrowth of forests, to sequester more carbon and contribute to emissions reductions, but also to develop those Logging Practices in ways that can contribute to avoiding the spread of these huge fires, so that there are fires that can be more localised rather than widespread. That takes effort just Clear Cutting and widespread practices of logging can be exacerbating, rather than helpful. I mean, in 2019, canada ranked as the tenth biggest emitter of Greenhouse Gases globally. In your professional opinion, what more can be done . Canada is working really hard right now at reducing emissions. Weve got a price on carbon thats due to rise, 270 per tonne by 2030. There are new regulations coming, earlier this year and more in the fall, for the electricity sector, for the oil and gas sector. So really, it is about implementation of those policies. Its about getting those policies in place, bending our emissions curve down even more, its also about bringing certainty to those policies. Some of the ways to reduce emissions are big, long lived projects that depend not only on Policy Signals today, but Policy Signals on the future. And so, ongoing debate and contention around some of these policies is contributing to uncertainty and undermining efforts to reduce emissions, and attract capital to compete in the new low carbon economy.

Few doubt that lessons need to be loaned. Now to pakistan. After an angry mob burnt churches. In pakistan, more than a hundred people have been arrested in a city in the punjab province, after an angry mob Burned Churches and vandalised christian homes. The violence injaranwala was triggered by claims that two christian men had torn pages from a copy of the quran. Those two men have now been arrested. 0ur pakistan correspondent Caroline Davies has more. Narrow streets with destruction at every turn. You can see there. The enormous damage that has been done here. This is jaranwalas christian quarter. Yesterday, angry protesters stormed these homes, including sonams. We lost everything, she tells me. Inside, blackened, overturned, smashed. She describes how her bed was thrown from the window and on her roof, how she heard an announcement from the mosque calling for people to come out to protest. Translation people came to our houses with their sticks. We were scared and we ran. We had small kids. If they had gotten hurt, what would we have done . The protest was called after two christians were alleged to have ripped pages from the koran, Writing Obscenities on them. Thousands gathered. It turned violent. Churches around the city burnt, homes ransacked. When we first got here, people were in a real State Of Shock but now, quite clear that that is turning to anger. Minorities, including christians, are protected by law in pakistan but many we spoke to felt that not enough was done to stop this. Translation when protesters| came here, they chanted slogans and i saw the police leaving from the other side. Then the protesters destroyed it all. The police argue they stopped the situation deteriorating. If we had charged or started fighting, it could have subsided but it would have swept all over the country and the most important thing, if we had killed any of the protesters, that would have created a ripple effect. The police have said they believe the violence was planned and arrested some individuals from two hardline religious parties. In stjohn� s church, tears for what is lost and for how quickly their fragile peace was fractured. Caroline davies, bbc news, jaranwala. Four people have been detained after a boat illegally carrying migrants to the uk sank into the english channel. Six on board lost their lives and in the last week alone, more than 2000 people have tried to cross the channel in small boats. 0n wasteland close to dunkirk, the worlds migrants continue to live in limbo. Theres food, water, phone chargers, even lessons for the kids provided by aid agencies. But these tracks lead to the coast, to the small boats, to britain. Karim, who asked not to be identified, paid people smugglers 2000 euros for a place on the boat which then sank. He said they promised him theyre going to send him to uk in good boat. In a good boat . Did they say what a good boat was . Translation big boat, 10 metres, 15 metres. I but in the end, it was three metres or four metres. And how many people were on that boat . They put 70 people on the boat, but there was no space and they left 10 people behind. Karim was one of them. Two friends stayed on board. He thinks theyre dead. But 22 year old idris survived. Translation there were far too many passengers. The waves were very strong, and the boat split up. Some people fell into the water and drowned. I never believed i would survive. I was fast losing the strength to swim, but i kept trying very hard to keep afloat. But when it comes to getting to britain, nothing has changed. Will you try tonight . Translation last night, i tried, and my boat was cut by the police. And tonight, i dont know. In the uk, some ask is enough being done in france to stop the boats . We went to several beaches discreetly at night, hoping to see migrants leaving. Each time. Bonjour, messieurs . We were immediately spotted by the police using night vision gear. Britain helps fund the officers and the equipment. Teams in camouflage watched us from the shadows. A Spotter Plane flew overhead, and on the ground, they searched for the hiding places used by the traffickers. But the coast is more than 70 miles long, and the traffickers have become experts at moving people. There are plenty of signs of how this works. The people smugglers hide their clients here in the dunes at night, trying to evade the police who are watching out for them. And they keep their boats here, heres one, an inflatable boat. And they try and rush to the beach atjust the right moment. The police, well, they try and slash the boats so they cant be used. The police are not a deterrent to migrants like jalla and her family. She says theyre fleeing gun attacks in iraq. They have tiny children, but theyre repeatedly trying to get on a boat. You know that a boat sank last week. Yeah, i know. What do you think about that . Its fate. If it happens, it happens . Yeah. Its not dangerous for us. We come across so many difficulties in my country. This is better than shooting us, you know, shooting my kids in front of my house. That raw drive is why stopping the boats is perhaps the governments most daunting challenge.

I think this is a great opportunity for the three countries to foster a stronger, more Stable Partnership which is good for deterrence and Contingency Planning at a time when china is Acting Assertively in the region, and north koreas continuing to improve its Nuclear Missile arsenals. I would be looking at whether these three countries can institutionalise some of the Security Cooperation measures that have been more ad hoc in the past, because that will send a political message, a Strong Political message to countries like china and north korea. , � ,. , korea.
