Digging spades. Agriculture forks. >> Lindsey: png's government figures far more than the u.n.'s estimate of 670 people. Officials say people in the region have been reluctant to bring in heavy machinery to remove debris. They have been taking on the heart wrenching task of looking for bodies by hand. One woman said she lost 18 family members in the disaster. Water slowing beneath the debris could lead to another landslide. >> I have not had any instance where any canadian official has told me they will not get there, but I don't have any sign that there is a plan in place to get to that 2% mark. >> Lindsey: in an exclusive interview with ctv's question period, ambassador julian smith said canada is the only member without a plan.

No late-night wake-ups with children being home sick. All of the trails through there are spectacular. >> Anne-Marie: I would have to shift the kids off west in summer. Maybe we could offer a three for one. >> Kelsey: this morning we are going to go north to tim minutes. Right across parts of ontario and québec. We have very active weather. Lindsey was-speaking about in the newscast. That is the same weather system moving through two of our provinces today bringing significant thunderstorms, heavy rainfall, sizable hail.

The St. Lawrence, the gaspe peninsula and up toward labrador itself. In behind that, there will be more steady state rainfall for tuesday. More showery for some in the south right across the shores of erie and central ontario. That clears and we set up for a very dry wednesday, thursday and friday. That lasts as we head toward the end of the weekend. Coming up, we will take you through atlantic canada. You are set to see that same front move its way in toward tomorrow morning.

Spring starts Monday June 3rdon ctv Life. >> Anne-Marie: I know you guys have been talking about summer reading season. A little later today, kevin kwan is back in studio. You might recognize his name. He is the author of the "crazy rich asians" trilogy. He is back with another book. It might be time to switch to an eREADER. You can take out eREADER books from the library. We foe they are more convenient and more accessible. You don't have to lug all of the books around. Do you prefer a physical book? We are all readers on the show? >> Kelsey: I like the convenience of an eREADER. But I also read on my phone. But I love the physicality of a book. Recently, we flipped to an eREADER for our son. My mom was upgrading hers. She had an old one and she gave it to our almost 10-year-old. He is a ferocious reader. We would go to the lay library and take out 15 books and he would be done before the week was over. Now we have been downloading on the eREADER for him. He said, I love the eREADER, but I miss how books smell. I won as a parent. There's a study I read recently about does eREADERS count as screen time for kids? Because reading is a tactile sensation. It is not only for your brain. You physically hold a page and you feel it and flip it. The brain response is different for an eREADER versus a book. Maybe hand them a physical book because it could be different. But for us, it has been a lifesaver in the amount he is reading. >> Lindsey: walker reads a lot. We haven't been going to the library. I have been spending money buying the books. >> Kelsey: and he looks archie's comics, too. >> Lindsey: yes. I said you can reread books. You go back and reread. >> Anne-Marie: he has a curious brain. >> Lindsey: he loves reading. I'm thinking that maybe the eREADER is something we should get into. >> Kelsey: he was reading to the iPAD and the iPAD is in his room and it's connected to the internet. The eREADER, the technology is kind of slow. You press the button and it takes a second. >> Lindsey: I am going to try that. I need to hold the book. >> Anne-Marie: you can't smell it. I love books so much that when we were having our house painted, I said I don't want cold white. I want white, the colour of a page in a book. >> Kelsey: a book like this, I would instantly pick it up because of the cover art and how the spine looks. >> Anne-Marie: so pretty. >> Lindsey: solid spine. >> Kelsey: when you read a series and every book of the series matches.
