Our position has been to and we've been saying it now for weeks. Palestinian civilians do not have any say space to go. The killing of innocent civilians is completely unacceptable.

(Upbeat music) (Dynamic instrumental music) It's been estimated that at least a third of used cars for sale are misrepresented, have liens or are stolen. With police cracking down on gangs stealing cars for export, many criminals are now selling cars locally. To do this, they're swapping vehicle identification numbers with wrecked vehicles or using phony vin plates and documentation copied from vehicles for sale in other jurisdictions. If you're stuck with one of these, it is subject to seizure and your insurance won't cover it. The best way to protect your rights is to buy a used car from a licensed omvic registered car dealer that way you will have recourse if the vehicle turns out to be misrepresented, have liens or it's stolen. If you buy one privately, you're on your own. When it comes to used rides, always know your rights. Male announcer: Know Your Rights is brought to you by Diamond & Diamond Lawyers.

israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the strikes on rafah that killed dozens of civilians were a tragic mistake, adding that an investigation is now underway for the latest on the israel-hamas war and these developments. We're now joined by ctv nationals colton praill colton. Tell us more about those comments and this investigation. >> We know it speaks to the immense international pressure. The israel is under for prime minister benjamin netanyahu to stand up in front of the israeli parliament and make that admission that this was a tragic mistake. Really is something that we don't see very frequently. And it speaks to discrepancy between how the idf described this attack and what actually idf previously said they were under the impression or their intelligence suggested there would be no harm to civilians. They were targeting 2 senior hamas commanders with what they called a purse ice strike. But what actually ended up occurring was devastation was a fire in a tent encampments from the gaza ministry of health. We have data 45 people dead, at least more than 200 injured. Those numbers could continue to rise. It's important to note that does come from the hamas-run authority, but it speaks to the level of devastation that occurred in this area. And it happened just days after an international court ordered israel to halt its offensive in the area on grounds that any military operations would be too dangerous to civilians. And as a result of that order and a result of what happened on sunday. We're seeing immense international pressure from countries like spain who are threatening potential sanctions on israel if they continue their assault in rafah. Countries like france, who have said that this is outrageous and that they are specifically calling on israel to adhere to those court orders. We've also heard from the high commissioner of the un himself who not only called this horrific, but said it was an entirely predictable outcome. And israel and particularly prime minister benjamin netanyahu faces more pressure internally from the families of hostages who have yet to be released. He is also facing this new added external pressure. And it comes just a day before we're going to see a number of other states officially recognize palestine. And so for him to come out and admit that this was a tragic mistake and that something in the process went wrong. Speaks to the pressure he's feeling, but also the political aspect of trying to continue an assault in rafah, trying to stick to their guns in if pardon the pun and try to seek out those last few bastions of hamas soldiers, while also dealing with potential international consequences from countries who previously would have been viewed as israeli allies and are now becoming a little more full-throated, a little more open and they're admonishments of certain aspects of this conflict. Alright, ctv's colton praill reporting live. Thanks so much, colton. And for a closer look at >> What's happening in this country. We can tell you the foreign affairs minister, melanie joly, she was grilled by the ndp in the house of commons in the last hour after this latest attack on rafah. >> Women and children were burned alive. Intense. They were told they were in a safe zone in a refugee encampment, yet they were burned alive. What will it take for this liberal government to send a message to netanyahu the what, as opp and is inexcusable. For this government to take actions to prevent this genocide from happening. >> Even in times of wars. And the images coming out of rafah are horrific. Our position has been to and we've been saying it now for weeks. Palestinian civilians do not have any say space to go. The killing of innocent civilians is completely unacceptable. And decisions of the international court of justice are binding the level of human suffering is catastrophic. And that's why mister speaker, we need immediate cease-fire. >> And closer to home here in this city, pro-palestinian protesters were joined by labour unions, faculty and steph is they defied a trespass order to leave king's college circle. They say their needs have not been met. Cp24's lindsay biscaia is at the u of t with the very latest. And I guess negotiations with the school continue. Lindsay. >> Yeah, those negotiations leno will be continuing about 2 hours another supposed to pick up again around 5:00pm this evening. In the meantime, you can see this encampment behind me still very much in protesters have said there would not be dismantling this encampment until the university has matched their demands, which it has not done yet. So we do have the latest from the university is that

after that deadline came and went this morning that trespassing deadline. The university is now filing court injunction to a protesters. And we did get a statement from the university. Earlier today on the model. We part of that for you now it says the notice of motion is proceeding normally and will be accessible through the usual process once it's filed at the court at 3.30 university avenue. We continue to engage in discussions with students representing those in the encampment. >> And hope they will bring the authorized encampment too. A peaceful end. And we've also spoken with students who are in this encampment, protestors about those negotiations and what they're hoping for from the university. Here's more on that. >> It's the 3 main demands that remain. Since thursday, when we received the first written offer the ut we sent a counteroffer right kind of senior demands, what our lines are, what we're actually interested in seeing. And so we presented that to them at the meeting and then they spent, you know, what our trying to caucus and figure out, you know, their next steps and you know, we kind of have to see what happens again. Billy, the ball's in their court right? Students are here, they will continue to be here. They will and meant despite the threats of police, despite the threats of academic, the precautions. >> So we'll have to wait and see how this all pans out. Li na at this point, the university has said it will not meet several demands, including cutting ties with israeli universities. Are maybe with these negotiations, we can come to some kind of a peaceful otherwise that notice of injunction will be filed by the university. >> You all right, lindsay biscaia reporting live. Thanks so much. Lindsay. >> And there is a show of support today for a north york jewish girls school that was hit by gunfire over the weekend. Mayor olivia chow and police chief myron demkiw are among those who attended a solidarity rally this morning at the bay entry school near dufferin and finch. Police responded to a call for shots fired at the school early saturday morning and found a bullet hole in the building. Organizers say today's demonstration was meant to show the skuce school students, staff and families that the community stands with them. >> We were able to the suspects driving up on the street right here, parking right here across the street from where we are right now. They came up the defence and fired shots and they had people waiting for them in the car and then they drove grateful to the federal government. Got us grant a couple years back. Stole the security fence that you see here, which enabled us to have close and they only have to stand behind a fence and they were unable to get onto the property. >> You and your families. >> Have a right to. I came here to tell you you're not alone. We came to say doesn't that is important. That we come together. I know jury community is resilient, is powerful. In canada and in toronto. There's no place for hate. >> Incredibly concerned, we've seen a growing rising anti-semitism since october 7th, but we haven't seen something like we've seen this weekend, shooting of this institution right behind me. And we really feel this is not just an attack on this wonderful school. But in talking entire community. And if you look at the stats right now, it was person living in toronto is 5 times more likely to be the victim of an anti-semitic hate crime. Accused person living in new york city. This is the city that we all love. This is very scary and it's dangerous, not just for our jewish community dangerous for the kind of city we all want to live in. >> Police have said it's too early to determine if the shooting as a hate crime or act of terrorism, but noted the hate crime unit is supporting the investigation. No one was injured at the school. Residents in some neighbourhoods have been told to expect an increased police presence. Time now is 3 10 sitting at 22 degrees. Early. Look at the roads this afternoon. We turn to traffic specialist adwoa good afternoon to good afternoon, lee. 90, it has been an easy afternoon, at least seeing a little bit of sunshine poke through the clouds, but that's for the good news ends. If you're commuter. >> You're running into a problem on the eastbound of one in the express to red fort crews on scene of a collision that does have the 2 left lanes occupied. Then on the flip side, westbound 401. The st. James snow parkway ongoing collision, only a couple of vehicles and a truck does have that left lane blocked problems to deal with on the northbound for 27 gems in the collectors through dundas. This is because of the collision that is now blocking the 2 right lanes collision that a deal was on the eastbound lanes of the gardiner of this is that just on the approach to jamieson centre lane occupied then westbound on the gardiner trying to get out of downtown by those westbound lanes. It's the left lane blocked out following the collision and more issues on the qew

toronto-bound. This is the exit ramp to appleby line. Looks like the 2 right lanes out with a collision involving a transport. Also problems outside of camera view eastbound 4, 1, at highway 6 north ongoing collision from this morning. The cleanup continues in the 2 right lanes are occupied leena.

The ford government removed land from the greenbelt to build 50,000 homes in 2022 before reversing course, reports from the auditor general and integrity commissioner found the process favoured certain developers. Privacy commissioner patricia qasem says her office is working on 19 active accessed information appeals that are similar to concerns raised by ontario ndp leader marit stiles. I think first of all, I know you've, of course, viewed dozens of emails that were sent to and received by mister sackville using a g mail account in which >> Documents were shared I I think the premier's chief of staff appears to have repeatedly. Misled the integrity commissioner under oath. And that this is another example of a member of the premier senior team hiding things from the public. So I'm not mincing words. I think mister sackville should resign. And if he won't, the premier should fire him. >> The rcmp is now investigating the greenbelt removal process. It is 3:15 24 degrees.
