Meanwhile, we begin with peterborough's walk to make cystic fibrosis history. The annual event supports those living with the life threatening disease germain-ma has more on how the fundraiser is having an impact around nicholls-oval. >> More than 100 people are stepping forward with hopes of finding a cure for cystic fibrosis, the life threatening genetic disorder damages multiple organs. It's estimated more than 4400 canadians have cf because cystic fibrosis is a rare disease, it doesn't get the attention that some of the other diseases get. >> So this walk is now because we have walks like this. It does bring awareness, and the awareness brings the money, the walk to make cystic fibrosis history not only raises funds for medical research, it supports people living with the disease. >> It's like seven year old penny diagnosed right after birth. >> Her mom, stephanie mcglynn, manages her care. >> She takes about 40 pills a day, and she does about an hour of breathing treatments before school and after school every time, you know, we go to nana's for the weekend, which we do quite a bit. I have to make sure I remember those medications that she needs to live, you know? And yesterday I forgot one. So I had to drive back, you know, back home an hour and back again. >> Penny is very aware of the importance of the medication. >> The scariest part is when my seven year old asks me when she's going to die, when cf is going to kill her, but terry foster is on a mission to keep that from happening. >> He's been doing the walk for 39 years, never missed an event even when he had cancer. Decades earlier, a child in his family passed away from cf complications. >> I felt quite helpless because I love kids. >> Foster now covers his shirt and the names of people diagnosed with cf. He's personally raised more than $220,000 over the years. >> I enjoy the whole idea that I am actually helping somebody. They make every dollar I raise help somebody to live longer, then that's good. I'm doing a good thing. >> The walk also shows that those living with cf, who often feel isolated are not alone. The goal is to raise $33,000 locally this year. Donations are being accepted online at walk dot cystic fibrosis.ca until the end of june. Germain-ma "global news" >> A niagara man has been arrested in connection with a shooting last fall and an assault earlier in the year in peterborough.

Later that same day, a second 28 year old man was taken to hospital with undisclosed injuries. Police say one person was arrested at a home in the area of george and perry streets. Then on january ninth, police responded to a call of a man with a serious head injury. After a four month investigation, a 25 year old man was arrested at a home in thorold. He was held in custody. Red heels were back in the downtown on friday. The ywca walk a mile in their shoes, made a return for the first time since the pandemic. The fundraising event supports gender based violence survivors. Germain-ma has the story. >> Dressed in the colour of strength and courage, about 100 people are walking through peterborough downtown. In previous years, this event was called walk a mile in her shoes. An ultra name reflects the higher rates of violence that women, girls and gender diverse people face. An increasingly urgent issue since the event was last held five years ago, the stats rose and they've never gone down. >> Women want to leave relationships. We have a housing crisis. Rents had risen before the pandemic. >> More than 4 in 10 women reported experiencing some form of intimate partner violence in their lifetime, according to statistics canada. And last december, the peterborough domestic abuse network found local gender based violence stats are slightly above national and provincial averages, including in rural areas. >> They're in isolated situations and they end up having nowhere to go and it can be a very scary proposition. >> Indigenous women also continue to be at greater risk. >> Murdered and missing indigenous women and girls. There's 231 calls for justice. Where are they at? What's being done? >> Walk a mile raises money for the ywca s journey of care, encompassing each of the organization's programs and services, from its shelter to court support, counseling to financial and housing assistance. >> Wherever a woman is and whatever makes most sense to her, she can start there, and we'll connect her with our internal programs and our

incredible network of support. >> At the same time, aiming to increase awareness of gender based violence to just like, say that we're here and you're not alone. >> It really does take brave men to interrupt. I know when, when I had a long, many years experience of violence in my home, I know that people saw it and no one said anything. >> We need the education. >> Men and women who get it. They get the costs of misogyny and will take a stand against it. >> The goal this year is to raise $20,000. You can still donate through the weekend by heading to wagama peterborough.com germain-ma "global news" >> Exceptional kids are learning to dribble on the hard courts at james strath every tuesday night. It's a jump ball program teaching the basics of basketball. The peterborough youth basketball association has teamed up with five counties children's center to run the program. Meaghan-roy checked out the action and brings us the story. >> Every tuesday night during the spring months, young athletes gather at james strath public school to play some jump ball. >> I enjoy playing at james strath. My parents are over there, so I just love playing here. It's so fun. >> Are you shooting against another person, joe hayes is the diversity coordinator with the peterborough youth basketball association. >> Last year, he approached five counties children's center about bringing basketball to kids with exceptionalities. >> They actually got my master's recently at trent university in education, and part of my thesis involved diversity. And so I've really, sort of, bought into the whole concept of inclusion, diversity, equity. And I thought this was a good way to bring basketball to some kids that might not have the opportunity to play. >> Five counties jumped on board right away helping develop this program for children and youth with physical, intellectual, and developmental disabilities. >> Everyone deserves the right to sport. So when we have especially children and youth with exceptionalities. So when we're able to provide these opportunities, it's a really big, part of their development. The program introduces kids to the game, providing fun games that everyone can play basketball specifically. There's a lot of different ways that we can adapt it, whether that's changing the rules or just the way we provide instruction or the equipment that we use. As an example, we can lower the nets is an easy adaptation that we can provide to support our kiddos. >> Now, in its second season, hayes says running the program has been a rewarding experience. >> Met some kids, that have come back, so I'm getting to know them a year after year, and it's just been an incredible experience. Yeah you're watching "chex-peterborough" >> Good morning. Hope you all had a great weekend. We do have some wet weather in store at times today, all due to this disturbance that's sliding into eastern ontario. And this morning some showers, even an isolated thunderstorm. And you can see that that's pushed in. We'll see a bit of a lull. And then another wave will move in this afternoon. In total 20 to 40mm possible by the end of today into tomorrow. So, this will be some soaking rains at times. And you can see winds currently out of the east. They will turn to a southwest wind and going to be a little breezy at times, likely 30 to 40km, 30 to 50km/h throughout the day. Today we're starting off pretty mild. We should still be in the high single digits as an overnight low. Nowhere near that. We're more towards the mid teens and we'll get into the low 20s as a daytime high today with the humidex, though, it will feel closer to the high 20s. So here's a look at what we can expect. More periods of rain, thunderstorm and heavier downpours possible through this afternoon. And then likely another wave that pushes through tomorrow afternoon. Then after that we should be into some drier weather. Although in the wake of that system it will be cooler. Let's take a look at your seven day forecast. So yes, some showers at times on tuesday 17 degrees in the high teens on wednesday and thursday. We do return to the 20s though. It looks like on friday the mid 20s with the sun cloud mix at this point for saturday and sunday. And that's a look at your forecast. Thank you ross. >> This is "global news" morning peterborough. We have your national and international headlines coming up. Stay right. I'm your host, Stephen Colbert. Normal girl Taylor Tomlinson. (Bell ringing) (Laughing)
