Our hero Paul lovesto help others.But today, ...he's helping protecthimself... ...against pneumococcalpneumonia, which can put you in the hospital. He got the Prevnar 20 vaccine. Yes, even heroes... ...should think protection. Ask about Prevnar 20 today. [surfer rock plays] [giggling] Ahh! Announcer: Son of a Critch. Watch free onCBC Gem. e]This is yourMarketplace. Have you been sold on the cold? [indistinct] [Charlsie]Plenty of peopleare boasting about the benefitsof cold plunging. But curing anxiety, losing weight, really? It's time to kill... or, should we say chill the buzz? In recent years, cold plunging has been heavily promoted. [lighthearted music playing] From dedicated practitioners with faithful followers... We are ableto defy inflammation. [Charlsie]...to the latestdirect to consumer offerings. [woman shrieking] Cold plunges aren't for everyone. [Charlsie]Denis Blondin has studied the effects of cold water as an associate professorof health science. [Denis] We've heard a lot of influencers getting really, really interested in cold plunges. We hear them repeat a lot of the same talking points, often based on really bad data. [Charlsie]So, let's thaw out some of those claims we're seeing on our feeds. [upbeat music playing] Can cold plunging help inflammation after a workout? It might be a benefit in some cases, or might be a hindrance in other cases. [Charlsie]Cold plunging after lifting weights can slow muscle recovery, reducing gains. But it might help you recover from endurance training faster. Can cold plunging help you lose weight? There's no evidence that cold will help you lose weight. [Charlsie] Can cold plunging help with depression or anxiety? There are some indications, yes, that it can. But I think there's more work that needs to be done. Thing is, being cold actually gives your body a similar physical response to a bit of exercise. Running up a flight of stairs can be a lot more comfortable and produce similar results. And that deep breathingtechnique taught by manyavid cold plungers... [breathing deeply] ...it's a form of meditation, and experts say that's wherea lot of the benefits people claim to experiencecan come from. [synthetic voice] Ice plunge with me. [Charlsie]Blondin also says "Cold plunging can be unsafe." This is so much [bleep] harder than it looks. We've heard of instances where people are doing cold water swimming and have drowned. It's not-- They haven't drowned because they can't swim. They drown from this strong cold shock response of this big gasp and this hyperventilation. [Charlsie]Cold plunges can put you into fight... or flight mode. It's why so many feel energized after a dip. But the cold water can also slow your heart rate and your body down. If you have any known or unknown heart issues, experts say you should not do it. If you cold plunge for longer, there's a risk you might become hypothermic, which you might not even realize. Blondin says "One thing is clear, cold plunging is not a slam dunk, and more science is needed." It really depends on the type of cold you're doing, how frequently you're doing it, how long you're doing it, so you can't kind of lump them all together. So, if you still want to give cold plunging a go, you're going to want to check with your doctor first. Ask if there's a family history of any cardiovascular issues. If the doctor gives you the all-clear, remember, don't go cold plunging alone. And keep it short. Asha:This season... What was the first indication that you'd been scammed? There was amarketplaceTV show. Woman:We've uncovered what you need to know. Woman 2: I don't think I'm ready. Wow. How bad could it be? Man:Revealing the truth about what we're buying. It's surprising to see that that big of a company has that going on. Asha: What we're buying into. I was stupid, with getting into this kind of a scam. Asha:Demanding answers from those in charge. But are you happy withhow fast we're moving, cause consumers are not. I want us to move faster,of course. Woman:Our work never stops. Thank you for doing this. Asha:Tell us whatto investigate next, because this--

[ ] >> Deana: hello. I'm raywat I'm I'm deana sumanac-johnson. We begin in newfoundland and labrador where a casket arrived from beaumont-hamel, france where he was killed in 1916 in the battle of the somme. >> I'm from saskatchewan, and I had no idea this was happening. I think it's pretty cool. >> I had no idea this was happening. It's a very proud moment. >> Reporter: newfoundland, and now newfoundland and labrador was not part of canada at that time, so it's a very distinct very important timetor the province. >> I think it's -- for the province. >> I think it's good that people here now have a place to go and pay their respects. >> I just had a moment during your question. I actually have an uncle who died in world war I and I'm buried in france. >> Deana: and in the war in ukraine, ukrainians are dealing with a russian guided missile strike in a crowded hardware store. Ukrainian officials say two russian guided bombs hit the store, killing two people and injuring dozens more. Several more people were injured in a missile strike in a residential area. Ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky called it another demonstration of russian madness. Zelensky offered his sympathies to the victims' families and says ukraine needs help from western leaders to beef up air defence systems which has been the target of russian attacks for weeks. Russian officials say there was also an attack by ukraine inside their borders. >> There's a lot of attacks that are going to take place physically and diplomatecally. >> Reporter: there's a summit next month in switzerland that russia will not be present. >> Both sides are positioning themselves into a better negotiating position, if you will. >> Reporter: the international conference in june is set to be in sweden, but russia's --

russia says any talks without ukraine present is a waste of time. >> Deana: word of a new diplomatic push in the israel war with hamas began to leak out when prime minister benjamin netanyahu said his government would defy a court order and press on with the war in gaza. Now with fighting in its 34 week, pressure is growing on the netanyahu government domestically. This was the scene in tel aviv as many people, including family members of those in captivity, say new negotiations need to take place. >> Reporter: what we've seen the last few hours is there were these meetings in paris between the C.I.A. chief, the israeli mossad chief, and the qatari prime minister. Next week, there's going to be talks between the same parties and egypt, and then hamas will be brought in. It's significant also because of the i.c.j., the international court of justice of israel to stop fighting and particularly -- particularly in gaza. The health ministry in gaza, hamas run, they say there's been dozens more deaths of palestinians, so if there were to be talks and if there was another way to solve this issue, it would be very welcome. >> Deana: journalist irris mackler in jerusalem.

>>> Students at the university of toronto in pro-palestinian encampments have been issued a warning to leave by monday at 5:00 p.m., but students say they are going to stick around. >> U.F.T. knows how to bargain. They bargain with unions on campus all the time. The first win offer cannot be the final offer, so we're preparing orur counteroffer so hopefully we'll be able to present that at the next meeting on sunday. >> Deana: protesters that don't leave by 5:00 P.M. on monday could face consequences, including a five-year suspension and expulsion. >>> Meanwhile, some pro-palestinian university encampments are coming to an end. On saturday, students in hamilton packed up after reaching a deal with McMASTER university. >> This morning, we are disbanding the camp and pack up. >> Reporter: this university student didn't want to reveal his full name out of fear for being retaliated against for those who aren't in favour of the encampment. >> If they weren't willing to hear us out or if we weren't willing to negotiate, none of this would have happened. >> Reporter: McMASTER has made several concessions, including inviting students to a meeting about its investment strategy and annual disclosure of all investments. >> We're going to make sure we hold the university responsible to stay responsible for the demands they committed to. >> Deana: in graduation ceremonies, valedictorian speeches are part of the ceremony, but one speech garnered viral reaction on-line. Remarks by a university of manitoba med school graduate are at the heart of this story. Dr. Gem newman urged graduates to speak out on the israel-hamas war as well as the actions of israel in gaza. Those condemning the remarks were earnest rady, the donor of the largest donation in the university's history. He called the speech "hate and lies." . Newman responded by saying it's ironic that demanding a ceasefire and calling for the rights of humans is considered hateful. >> Universities have faced major cutbacks from the public sector over the last couple of decades and are increasingly reliant on these things, and that's why they're taking this position. I think it's not particularly controversial to call for a ceasefire, and the donor has the right to withdraw that contribution. The problem is there's a power imbalance here and that the university really requires the funding, and so the honour gets more priority in this conversation. >> Deana: toronto police are looking for two suspects after finding evidence of gunfire at a jewish elementary school. The investigation began after a report of a bullet in the window for the jewish school for girls. Just after 5:00 a.m., two occupants in a vehicle pulled up and fired a gun towards it. >> The integrated task force is

the lead investigator on this, however, we have the support of the hate crimes unit, as well. One of the questions that people are asking is, is this a hate crime or is this a terrorist act? What I'm going to say is it's too early to saw that. We're not going to ignore this and what the target of the shooting was, but at the same time, it would be premature to react to that at this point. >> Deana: the prime minister has put out a statement, calling this a despicable act of cowardice. >>> Microgroups and their supporters protested saturday in montreal. They're demanding a faster pace by the federal government on its commitment to regularize the status of undocumented workers. >> Reporter: outside justin trudeau's riding office, community groups gathered, criticizing the federal government's work to regularize the status of undocumented workers. >> We want to stay here. >> Reporter: the federal liberals pledged in 2021 to explore ways of regularizing status of undocumented workers, but that study is on going. In the meantime, they say, immigrants are suffering. >> They work below minimum wage, sometimes working 50, 60, 70 hours a week. Sometimes they face even not being paid. [speaking Spanish language] >> Reporter: in a statement sent to cbc news, immigrations, refugees can't refugees canada says it's looking at the situation. >> On the behest of, like, a faucet, when we need more healthcare workers when we need more construction workers, when they need, but actually, on the basis of human values and solidarity. >> Reporter: canada's immigration marc miller has said that he's on track to present a proposal from his-- to his fellow cabinet members next month. >> Deana: a town in northeastern saskatchewan has declared a state of emergency and people there are unable to leave. Heavy roads and washed out the only road to and from the village. The mayor says essentials like milk, bread, baby formula, and prescription medications are in short supply. Community leaders are calling for emergency meetings with the provincial and federal governments.

This isThe National. >> Deana: welcome back. This week, the U.S. government announced it's suing live nation-ticketmaster for maintaining a monopoly over the concert industry. Live nation ticketmaster has long been the target of consumer outrage, including when websites crashed during the announcement of the taylor swift eras tour. >> I asked some officials myself, and they said traditionally, when a monopoly is broken up, things improve for all parties except for the stakeholders in the monopoly , of course,. Ticketing is such a dark art, and it is so hard to understand. There's so many potential places for it to become corrupt that it's hard to know what the solution is or if this break up would actually make the difference because what are the things that people complain about the most? Exorbitant prices on the secondary market, the fact that ticketmaster essentially went offline when all the taylor swift tickets went on sale. They did recommendlymington remedy that, to their credit, but there are almost no specific solutions for this. In the lawsuit, they're just saying break it up and that will solve the problem. A lot of people are not
