by his party. Fortunately. >> I have to stand and tell you today that john rust add ultimately made that decision, that that's not something that he wants to proceed with. And he is going to put his personal ambitions as he views them above the best interests of the province. While it may disagree with his decision. I respect the fact of the decision's been made and we're going to go forward and I want you to know, go forward with real confidence. >> The deal would not have included a merger of the parties, but could have led to a coalition government.

A solemn re burial ceremony is set to take july first documentary filmmaker morgan spurlock who rose to fame with his documentaries about the fast food industry has died. He is best known for his film super size me where he ate nothing but mcdonald's for a month to highlight the dangers of a fast food diet. Spurlock's family says he died thursday in new york from complications of cancer. He was 53. For more on this, let's bring in ctv's kamil karamali kamil. Good afternoon. And tell us more about morgan spurlock's career and the documentary films will be remembered for. Yes. So that film super size me released to 20 years in 2004 still having a big as you can imagine, seeing that it was groundbreaking. >> In so many and it really was a big part of morgan spurlock's legacy that launched him in 2 career as a documentary filmmaker and allowed him to really pursue more ambitious projects moving forward. So as we very well know that film super size me when spurlock lived on a diet of macdonald's for an entire month and checked in with doctors on the impact it was having on his body and mental health. It was nominated for an oscar for best documentary, making 22 million dollars off a $65,000 budget. It really did things renee to change with documentaries we're told him. And michael moore really had a big impact at that time in putting themselves in the documentary, becoming a character in your own film and and started doing experiments on yourself in some capacity. It also in a lot of changed the fast food industry as you know, it really put a spotlight on the obesity epidemic that was taking place in america. And as a result of mcdonald's franchise to its that it decided to include more healthier options as well as as scaled back or completely eliminate their super size menu option. To have a listen to what one, a pop culture analysts had to say about the impact of spurlock. >> The documentary as a form, people always take it to be truth but there's always sort of a certain construction when it comes to going to the documentary filmmaking. There's always a certain level of fiction. Well, in the footsteps of michael moore, morgan spurlock is someone who kind he created a sort of self mythologizing in it. You know, he became an actor in his own documentary and where wait, wait, you know, like a documentary become sort of folksy adventure with a touch of fiction. >> Seeing here, a statement from greg spurlock, morgan's brother morgan gave so much to his heart ideas and generosity. Today, the world has lost a true creative genius and a special man. I am so proud to have worked together with him. Renee. >> Kyle is for lack took aim at the eating habits of americans. Did the documentaries have any lasting effect? Yeah, because it was a 20 year anniversary of this mega hit documentary. Actually new york times released a study and article really delving into what did have. Unfortunately over time, foot fortunate for spurlock, that is over time. It's a it's sort kind of swayed in the other direction with mcdonald's really gaining momentum again, the years after it came out. As I mentioned, it initially had an impact you that was a lot of backlash towards macdonald's. But said the study are quoted in the article said now kids are ordering from the adult menu at a younger age and the top selling items at mcdonald's are actually highest calorie items, with experts

saying the healthy items and now on the board seemed to be just a public relations effort. But let's not forget. Spurlock also made more than 20 films and documentaries in total. It also had major impacts and sparked conversations, including where in the world is osama bin laden in 2008. And he came up with a super size me too, that looked at the chicken and fast food industry related to chickens. Chicken specifically in 2019. Not that long ago. So still having an impact many, many years after that film once again passing away at the age of 53 from complications from cancer in it. >> All right, steve is kamil karamali reporting.

this is ctv news channel. Thanks for joining us. I'm renee rodgers. >> The international court of justice is ordering israel to stop its military operation in rafah. >> A key city in southern gaza. Its more pressure on israel, even though the court itself has no means to actually enforce the order. >> Is that must immediately halt its money through a fence. And any other action. And that often government. Which may conflict on the palestinian group in gaza. Conditions will fly. That could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part. >> The president of the court said the humanitarian situation in gaza is catastrophic. It also ordered israel to reopen a key border crossing in rafah to allow more aid and medical supplies into gaza. In all likelihood, israel will not comply. Prime minister justin trudeau was asked about the ruling today. >> Its position has always been that the solution to extraordinarily difficult challenges in the middle east. Our a two-state solution, a peaceful and secure democratic israel. Alongside a peaceful secure democratic palestinian state. >> Joining me now is michael lynk, former un special rapporteur for the situation of human rights in the palestinian territory from 2016 to 2022. Michael, thank you for being here. Your reaction to this ruling is the decision. A surprise. >> The decision isn't a surprise in the sense that the court has now ordered a it, it probably is a little more distressing. The fact that the ceasefire is the order only goes to the rafah area, which is the area only for south of the gaza strip. Where we've seen roughly 8 to 900,000 palestinians leaving that area over the last couple weeks, trying to find shelter or someplace else in the south or the middle of gaza. As your report indicated, the bull arm world court also ordered israel to maintain the opening of the rafah crossing is that's where the vast majority the either has entered or can't enter into the gaza strip. And we know over the last few weeks since israel initiated its rafah offence of that virtually no eat. It all has been getting into a into gaza through the rafah crossing so that these these are good measures. But I they're not, they're not going to be implemented by israel. We already know that there's been an overwhelming vote for a ceasefire in the entire part of gaza since december voted on by the general assembly, the united nations. We know that the security council vote a much more cease fire for 3 months for days of ramadan in early april. 2024 and israel is not heated. Either call by the international community. And that case. I don't see anything with respect to this order coming today. >> Right, it is this ruling in forcible how enforceable is it? >> Well, being enforced would come from the security council. The international court of justice doesn't have its own army. It doesn't have its own police. It depends the security council to implement its its orders. If there is a recalls and a state that's refusing to put these orders and the place. Well, remember, the last time or orders were asked for by by south africa against israel and issued by the court, both after a late january. And then at and late march, their efforts at the security council to put into place resolution that would what the court had ordered. And the aftermath of the march resolution of the merch order. The united states vetoed a resolution coming that wasn't a introduced by a I wouldn't be surprised. The village area and other elected members to the security council again trying to introduce a resolution calling for an immediate and full in the days a united states would have to decide whether it's going to be that are not that doesn't it, it may be that israel continues to defy world opinion. >> When coming to the actual ruling itself, what kind of proof would the court? >> Have had to see it. >> Sure, it's documentary evidence that was put into the court and that done through arguments several weeks ago by both south africa and israel. There's been extensive documentation presented to the court and certainly is as you listen closely to court's order today, the court takes very seriously that reports and the statements made by the united
