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. >> But 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.

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 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 thunderstorms, 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.

Here's a look at your national and international headlines. The death toll from severe weather in the southern united states has now risen to 18. Powerful storms left a wide trail of destruction across texas, oklahoma and arkansas. The worst damage was seen in a region spanning from north of dallas to the northwest corner of arkansas. The governor of kentucky declared a state of emergency early this morning, citing multiple reports of wind damage and tornadoes. Now, forecasters say the greatest risk for weather will shift to the east today, with severe storms expected anywhere from alabama as far as new york city. Strong winds and heavy rain pounded the coastal regions of bangladesh and india as a severe cyclone made landfall. Millions of people are without electricity after a power poles fell and trees were uprooted by gusty winds. Dozens of bangladeshi villages were flooded after a flood protection. Embankments either washed away or were damaged by the storm surge. Nearly 800,000 people had been evacuated from vulnerable areas in bangladesh on sunday. The india meteorological department says the storm is likely to weaken further throughout the day, but warns heavy showers will remain over the next two days. 12 people were injured by severe turbulence on a qatar airways flight from doha to dublin. It happened while flying over turkey. The plane, a boeing 787 dreamliner, still managed to land safely as scheduled, but passengers on board say the turbulence lasted less than 20s and occurred during food and drink service. This incident follows similarly severe turbulence on a singapore airlines flight nearly a week ago, where dozens of passengers were injured and a man died of a suspected heart attack. Former us president donald trump is looking to gain more support along the campaign trail this weekend. He took to swing state north carolina, where he was met with waves and cheers. But he had a rockier reception at the libertarian national convention after getting booed and heckled

during a raucous speech. Astrid martinez has more on what lies ahead for trump and president joe biden. This week, as summer kicks off the presidential race is also heating up in north carolina this weekend, nascar fans cheered ahead of former president trump's arrival at the coca-cola 600 race. >> It's trump's third visit to the swing state this election. >> It's going to be a great race. >> But his reception was far less friendly while on the campaign trail in dc on saturday. >> I will be a true friend to libertarians in the white house. >> Trump was booed by the crowd at the libertarian national convention after asking for the third party's endorsement. President biden did not attend the libertarian convention, instead delivering the commencement address at west point graduation and using the moment to take a jab at former president trump. >> And your very first day at west point, you raised your right hand and took an oath not to a political party, not to a president, but to the constitution of the united states of america. >> President biden will also head to a swing state this week. Pennsylvania it will be his seventh time in the state this year. Astrid martinez, cbs news the remains of an unknown newfoundland soldier who died in france during the first world war arrived home in saint john's . >> France transferred the remains to canada over the weekend during a repatriation ceremony at the beaumont-hamel newfoundland memorial. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the national war memorial in downtown saint john's. This is where the unknown soldier's remains will be placed in a black granite tomb on newfoundland's memorial day on july 1st. A graphic artist who designed tragically hip themed canadian travel posters has caught the attention of the band. As jay-durant explains, these posters are now being sold across the country. >> A little background music for inspiration. Graphic artist john bell island, his creative partner adam rogers came up with a unique idea to showcase their client mitchell presses capabilities. It'd be kind of cool to do travel posters that were based on the tragically hip songs. Drawing from a classic canadian style, the finished products posted on social media quickly caught the attention of the kingston band, and they got a call from the tragically hip and said, wow, I don't even know about this project. Really interesting. Maybe we can talk about it now. The complete set is being sold on the hips website. On their 40th anniversary, a hip trip around canada incorporating some hidden nuggets from those well-known lyrics. This weathervane jesus. At the top of this, we have ry cooder up in here, singing his eulogy could have been the willie nelson, or it could have been the wine. I probably went through their whole catalog. We actually ended up hiring a writer to help us with that, because we really wanted it to have like a over the top sort of advertising feel to the writing. This is not bilal's first tragically hip themed work. He created a commemorative poster for rogers arena during the farewell tour in 2016, back when he was more of a casual fan. I probably had 2 to 3 albums and now I probably, you know, I listen to them all the time, shaking now that I got my hands steady. John's also an instructor at the wilson school of design from this project that's quickly taken off. There's a lesson here that he will continue to share with his students. You're going to get overwhelmed by the software and the technology and all of those things. But at the end of the day, it's all about imagination. And it will be the one thing that will keep you in the industry. Jay-durant "global news" >> And that's what's making national and international news.
