wildfire. Fort nelson's mayor said people could start heading back on monday or tuesday. Some doctors and workers from essential businesses like grocery stores -- port nelson's mayor said rain has helped keep the parker lane fire in check and the risk to the community has been reduced. >> Members of the royal newfoundland regiment have arrved in france to bring the body of an unknown soldier home. >> It was catastrophic. >> The body will be returned to canadian troops at a ceremony tomorrow. It was the site of a bloody first world war battle in which hundreds of soldiers from newfoundland were killed or injured. The unknown soldier will represent more than 800 newfoundlanders who died in the first world war. Once it returns, the soldier's body will lie in state. It will be later entombed at the national war memorial. >> It is all coming back for celine dion fans in a brand-new documentary. >> I have been diagnosed with a very rare neurological disorder and I wasn't ready to say anything before. But I am ready now. >> We are getting up close and personal glimpse into celine dion's struggle with a life altering illness. She says this documentary is a love letter to fans. The doc showcases her incredible career in music from live footage of her shows to personal interviews. "i am celine dion" drops on prime video on june 25th >> We were talking about this around the office this morning. A lot of folks excited for it. I'm stoked to see it. >> Lindsey: what a journey. Her career is so incredible. And just the way she talks is so passionate, too. She has always been like that. I'm really excited to see that. >> Kelsey: she is one of the celebrities who I think so many of us feel so connected to because she has been so honest and open through her journey. It's hard. I feel teary watching it. We just love her. I always talk about how we listen to celine dion and the eagles growing up. I'm excited isn't the word that I'm feeling. I really want to see it, but I feel like I am going to sit there with a bowl of popcorn and my tissues. >> Lindsey: you know when you meet somebody and they are born to do something. She breaks into song while she is speaking. All of her interviews. She will just be talking. It's almost more natural for her to be singing. >> Teddy: if you had a voice like that, I would be dropping in song every moment, too. >> Kelsey: she is like the number one. Anybody who you would like to interview, top of the list. I would just have to not cry. I'm working on that. For now, I will do your weather forecast. That's coming up in 15 minutes' time. It's a frosty friday. A rick -- risk of frost. There's also a risk of severe storms. Elsewhere, heavy rain and for some, flipping over to snow as we see colder air coming down from northern canada. We will talk about the influence that has on precipitation coming up. It is much wetter into next week. I know it felt very much like summer in parts of ontario and québec this week. We are getting a taste of spring weather next week. We will talk about that coming up. For now, here is a look at what you can expect for today. >> Lindsey: on heels after series of cyberattacks targeting everything from municipalities to drugstore chains. The federal government has announced the details of a coordinated plan to beef up its security against cyber threats. The enterprise cyber security strategy will assess risk to different government departments. Create a process for disclosing

vulnerable. Joining us on how to combat the rise of cyberattacks is david shipley. Ceo of beauceron security. Canada is investing $11.1 million on this cyber security strategy. The U.S. DISCLOSEs investment of 13 billion. Is canada doing enough? >> Not even enough. Right now they are talking about throwing a cup of water on a house fire and maybe the fire will be out in ten years. >> Lindsey: in the past few months. We had the city of hamilton. The town of huntsville. And london drugs. And the B.C. first nations health authority. When we hear about these cyber attacks, when hackers are picking their targets, what are they after? Are they after money or people's identification or people's personal information? >> Lots of things we are seeing here is criminal backed activity. One of the biggest gangs operates out of russia. It brings in hundreds of millions of dollars. This is also a way of fuelling their war. This is part of conflict. It's crime, but it is part of the bigger story. And canada is losing. When you say about the five ontario hospitals who went for months. When you talk about the chemo patients who suffered because of that. This is having tremendous effects on every day canadians. The strategy you just MENTIONs is them protecting the castle. Us villagers are all getting raided by the cyber vikings these days. Attackers are money motivated. Sometimes it's just what they find on the internet. They are scanning every single second. Others hire affiliates. We actually had canadians working with some of these international gangs who are part of picking specific industries. One of them made $27 million doing those crimes. They get really good at this and they work verticals. When they hit one municipalities, they try others. Hamilton is the largest municipality to date that we know and that continues to escalate. >> Lindsey: when we hear about london drugs saying we are not going to pay. Then what? >> We now know that it wasn't bluffing. They released some very sensitive information about employees. Including some medical information about employees. Lock bit is now known entity of U.S. law enforcement. The leader has been identified and is under sanctions. Legally, london drugs probably can't even pay even if they wanted to. >> Lindsey: where are these people? Because they could be anywhere. How do you even find them and how do you put a case against them. >> Law enforcement in canada had some good wit. There was an it employee who is now facing several decades in U.S. prison as an affiliate. The gangs in russia, the best we can do is ruin their day. >> Lindsey: let's talk about ai. >> So the good news is, so far, defenders who have been investing billions of dollars over years have a slight edge. But the proliferation of cheap and powerful tools is eroding that. We are seeing powerful scam e-mails. Phishing e-mails are getting better and harder to spot. It is lowering the cost of cyber crime. More canadians are being victimized. Up to $600 million was lost by canadians to cyber fraud last year alone. The rcmp believes only one tenth was actually lost. >> Lindsey: is there hope out there for us? >> There is hope. Here is the problem. Our politicians, the federal leaders in canada don't care about this. Why don't they care about it? Because as canadians, we are not talking about it. Every day canadians can start demand better of our government. And the first thing our government can do is what the americans have done. Bring together the federal government, the provinces and the private sector for a ransomware summit and get a handle on this before more people suffer. >> Lindsey: thank you for being here, david shipley. Coming up, we have how the courts (Dramatic music) (Cheering) Dude, did you know BetMGM has responsible gambling tools, so you don't get carried away? I never get carried away. Well there were the bobbleheads. And the playoff beard. Chili's ready. Those tools could really help. Don't forget about the backyard rink.

Nespresso, what else? . It's spring time in paris and the kings and queens of clay have come out to play Tennis played on another planet That is a piece of art right there Ooo lala! Roland garros on tsn and tsn+ >> Lindsey: the parent company of ticketmaster is being taken to court. Live nation is being sued by the U.S. justice department and a group of 30 states plus the district of columbia. What is the goal? To break up live nation. Apparently politicians accuse of anti-competitive conduct and control over the events industry. For a closer look at what this means for the company, we are joined by mohamed khimji professor of law at queen's university. What could this lawsuit mean for ticketmaster? >> What the department of justice wants is to undo a merger that occurred in 2010 between live nation, who specializes in music concert promotion and ticketmaster, which specializes in ticket services. It's now both of those service providers are controlled by the same company and the department of justice wants to separate them. >> Lindsey: I'm trying to think of, who is the competition? >> There isn't much. Live nation and ticketmaster dominate. Not only do they dominate promotions and ticket servicing, they also dominate venues. They control a lot of venues. >> Lindsey: I want to give a sample. That is the ticket to see taylor swift. We heard this conversation happening on-line. We have been covering it on news on our show. I want you to look at something. I want to put a board up. We got these numbers this morning. This is a resale ticket. She is playing in madrid at the end of the month. $404. Toronto, she is playing in the fall. That is what a resale ticket is going to cost you right now. You have to buy a hotel ticket and a plane ticket. It's 2 grand for a ticket in madrid. You are still paying $300 less to get a hotel, airfare and a ticket to go to madrid than one concert ticket in toronto. Fans are not happy. >> It's astonishing. Live nation put out a statement on its website yesterday explaining that its market dominance in north america isn't the reason for high ticket prices. It's blaming increased production costs. Costs have increased post pandemic. It's also aatribting -- the extent to which that accounts for the entire difference in price that you just mentioned, that remains to be seen. >> Lindsey: will we see any effect here in canada of this lawsuit? >> We will. It has some impact. If it goes through the legal system and the department of justice gets what it wants, then live nation and ticketmaster will be separated. Both the U.S. companies. They have canadian operations through canadian subsidiaries. >> Lindsey: we have been talking about the consumer experience. What about the artist side of it? How do artists feel about ticketmaster in general? >> We have had high-profile disagreements. Like bruce springsteen for example. The problem is and was the department of justice alleges, one of the allegations is that let's say a musician wants to perform at a particular vn u.

that venue is controlled by live nation. Live nation will pressure the musician to use its promotion services and use ticketmaster as the exclusive ticket provider. >> Lindsey: any response from ticketmaster? >> Live nation and ticketmaster -- we saw the statement on the website yesterday. They are denying the allegations and calling them baseless. The most interesting is its net profit margin which is only 1.4%. That figure on its own suggests that live nation is not overcharging anybody. That figure will be scrutinized. >> Lindsey: the finer details. It was great to have you here. Coming up... Kelsey shows us where we are going to see lots of rain today. Here is a bit of a sneak peek. We have your national forecast right after the break.

"your morning" the podcast. On the iHeartRadio app or where ever you get your podcasts. >> Kelsey: mild temperatures this morning in parts of ontario and québec with 15 right now in the city of toronto. 15 for ottawa and 18 in montréal. We will go live to windsor, ontario there morning. This view of windsor courtesy of windsor flying club as we kick off the day on a bright note. Look at that, kind of black and white for us this morning. Later on today, the city of toronto will be looking at 26. A little bit cooler for ottawa and montréal. In the teens today. 10 for thunder bay. And 9 for winnipeg. A couple of 15s for regina and edmonton. 12 in vancouver. Over to atlantic canada, mid-to-high 20s. Other temperatures we are following are the temperatures through the atlantic. We have got the hurricane output. The forecast for the season from the national hurricane season in the united states indicating that there is a higher than average risk of seeing more named storms than normal. A couple of different factors that go this. One of them is the temperatures particularly through the caribbean. They have been trending above seasonal. Already we can see temperatures sitting roughly around 29°. That is a above average. The other big factor is what has been the transition from the el

niño year to a la niña year. That has to do with the temperatures in the pacific. It reduces wind sheer through the atlantic. Wind sheer are winds that change direction and speed with height. Wind sheer would be winds that twist as they go up and increase or decrease in speed. That is not conducive to hurricane development. A la niña year means a more conducive environment to see these storms develop. Wind sheer is very conducive to tornadoes. We are certainly seeing that this morning through iowa as we take a look at this line of storms moving its way right now. There is a tornado warning. As they slow down that speed, you can see the rotation itself on the radar. This line of storms capable of producing not only rotation, but also straight line winds that are incredibly damaging and toonie-sized hail through the area. On the north end of that, we are seeing heavy rainfall through southern manitoba and through southeast saskatchewan with rainfall warnings from brandon, all the way eastward toward winnipeg. 50 to 60 millimeters of rain expected here. Some areas are going to flip over to snow due to the presence of cold air. That wind is also responsible for why temperatures have begun to dip in parts of ontario and québec as well. We have gone from the high 20s down to barely making it into the double digits. Overnight tonight, frost. In terms of the rainfall associated with the storms in the U.S. and through the rainfall and flooding concerns in southern manitoba, that will continue through today. East of it, we have lots of sunshine from peterborough area, kingston, through the rest of ontario. Part of why ottawa and montréal is cooler is due to the presence of a weather system in atlantic canada pulling down that colder air keeping it more cloudy. A few showers mixed in. This rain in southern manitoba and northwest ontario for some will flip over to snow. From dauphin to brandon toward winnipeg. Accumulations will be limited. Due to the fact that the ground -Ahh... this thing isn't getting any better... -And it won't get better on its own. -On top of that, it looks gross! -It's a nail fungus infection. -Really gross! -and it can spread to other people. It's contagious. -i think I need to see a doctor. -It's a good thing you came to see me. -It's an infection; you need a prescription. Ok. Nail fungus should be taken seriously. At the first signs, show it to your doctor or foot care practitioner and ask about prescription treatments that can be applied to the nail. What keeps baby's skin healthy?

My name is Alex Hitchons. Call me Hitch. >> Good morning, canada. It's friday morning. I got the day off. I am going fishing. I am hoping for a good day. It is geno from north of barrie. Have a good one, [upbeat theme music] >> Lindsey: geno. >> Teddy: you have a good one, man. Great, geno. >> Kelsey: that was beautiful. Tindz it was perfect. >> Teddy: new this morning... We are learning the competition bureau is investigating the parent company of loblaws and sobeys. Federal court documents show anti-competitive conduct. The grocery giants put controls into their lease agreements to limit potential new tenants. This could prevent independent grocers or new grocery stores to take that space. Sobeys owner empire is calling it unlawful. >> The summer concert series is upon us. And the U.S. department of justice has kicked their season off with the biggest ticket seller. >> We allege that live nation -- for far too long. It is time to break it up. >> Teddy: it's accusing ticketmaster and their parent company live nation of being an illegal monopoly. And along with 30 other states, they are suing. Live nation and ticketmaster merged in 2010 and they now control 60% of concert promotions across 265 north american venues. Also mentioned in the suit, all of those fees that are attached to buying tickets. As for here in canada, our competition bureau won't confirm if they are investigating the company.

>>> There's developing news around the war in ukraine with a report suggesting russian president vladimir putin is ready to talk cease-fire. A reuters report is quoting four russian sources. Same sources also say russia is willing to keep fighting if ukraine and the west do not engage. Ukraine has not responded to the report. This president has said peace on putin's terms is a non-starter and its goal is to retake territory lost to russia, including crimea. >> Noaa is expecting an active atlantic hurricane season this year >> This season is looking to be an extraordinary one in a number of ways based on our data and models on the el niño and la niña playing out in a significant role. >> Teddy: they are expecting between 17 and 25 named storms with 8 to 13 of those becoming hurricanes. Noaa says there's an 85% chance of above normal hurricane activity this summer. They forecast 4 to 7 hurricanes will reach major status. The centre also noting the persistent near local warmth -- the prediction is for storm development, not landfall. We have to see what human impact will be. Hurricane season officially begins on june 1st. >> U.S. senators are calling on canada to step up when it comes to nato spending. Bill blair had this to say in response. >> I will be able to assure that canada will be ready and capable ally. >> Teddy: minister blair admitted there is more work to be done to boost our defence spenldzing. The letter was signed by 23 senators saying they are "profoundly disappointed". Canada is supposed to spend 2% of gdp on the military as part of our nato membership. Canada spends 1.33% on defence.
