This latest lawsuit comes just days after surveillance video surfaced showing combs physically attacking his then girlfriend in 2016 she filed a lawsuit against the rapper in november. The case was settled shortly afterwards. Experts predict combs will attempt to settle this case as well. >>> Joining me from washington, sexual misconduct producer, judy, this is the latest in a string of lawsuits against combs. Talk us through the claims. >> So what you're seeing is the result of a federal investigation that's going on. And that came after the raid on Mr. Combs' two properties, one in miami, one in los angeles. Prior to that, there was the lawsuit that was brought by kathy ventura. That case was a result of in new york the revival statute of limitations, or what we call the adult survivor act. A number of cases pending. A total of 5 to 6 cases that are pending against Mr. Combs because of that revival statute where we say you're now allowed to bring a claim as a sexual abuse survivor because the statute of limitations was survived or reopened in new york. So that's what you're seeing. We know that the case was settled a day after she filed suit, but there still are other cases pending against Mr. Combs. >> Ella: where do you see this lawsuit going? Do you think it will be settled outside of court? >> So the case where we see the video and that video that we can speculate links back to ms. Ventura's case, that should be settled. We're thinking that will the federal government use that video in their case, and we speculate there may be charges from the raid on his home. What I will say is that video will likely -- it's reasonable that it will not be used in the federal case because the evidence that probably was gathered in those raids are going to be much more incriminating than a video that circulated through the media. The video, if anything, it eviscerates the credibility of Mr. Combs. Seeing him act like that, seeing him kick, abuse, verbally, physically ms. Venture, that issue is likely dead because that tape comes from 2016. What we're seeing is assault, and it's probably the statute of limbations on that assault would have ran. But if anything, it speaks to the nature, it speaks to the credibility of Mr. Combs, which again, I say is actually eviscerated by seeing him act like this towards another person. >> Ella: it will be interesting to see where this all goes. Thank you so much for your time today. >> Thank you. >> Ella: british prime minister has set a date for summer election with his party far behind in the polls. >> I spoke with his majesty the king to request a dissolution of parliament. The king has granted this request and we'll have a general election on the fourth of july at a time when the world is more dangerous than it has been since the end of the cold war. >> Ella: conservatives have seen their support dwindle after 14 years in power in the uk, also suffered from ethics scandals and revolving door of leaders in the past two years. The opposition labour party is now strongly favored to win.

>>> Nikki haley. Endorsed donald trump is upcoming presidential election. >> I will be voting for trump. Having said that, I standby what I said in my suspension speech: trump would be smart to reach out to the millions of people who voted for me and continue to support me. And not assume that they're just going to be with him. [ Applause ] >> Endorsement came during haley's first public speech since she dropped out of the race in march. Last major rival in the contest, and the pair were sharply critical of each other during the primary. >>> Search and rescue efforts continue in an iowa community following a ferocious tornado. Multi multiple fatalities and injuries, though numbers not provided. >> The devastation, but at the same time I can't begin to tell you how heart warming it is to see everybody out there helping each other. >> The twister carved a path of destruction, levelling homes and crushing vehicles. The hospital in the town was among the buildings damaged, which meant at least a dozen injured people had to be rushed to nearby hospitals. More than a hundred first responders are continuing to comb through the wreckage. >>> Another honour for christine sinclair who now has her very own custo sullivan's crossing new episode on ctv (Sniffling) Feeling Claritin Clear is like...

>> Moments in life you can't even dream of. I never thought I'd be made as a barbie doll. >> Reporter: the aim to inspire, the maker of barbie said the dolls aren't for the public. They won't be for sale. Created just in their likeness truly to honour those athletes and I would love a doll too. I feel everyone's pain out there. But there is only one and it is gifted to the role models. >> Reporter: that puzzled parents. >> Why not? Sell them all. Sell them all to all the girls so the girls can play with barbies, not only princesses, also kicking a ball. >> Reporter: sinclair says being a barbie role model is an honour. >> An iconic toy, hopefully can inspire the next generation of young canadians. >> I asked the maker of the dolls whether they're considering selling them to the public and I was told there are no plans right now, but you never know what the future holds. >> Ella: the country's largest documentary festival is temporarily shuttering its toronto theatre.

Topping the list is lauryn hill's miseducation of lauryn hill. Also in the top 5 is michael jackson's thriller, the beatles, prince, and frank ocean. >> I think it's really, really good. I think the fact that they've got a little bit of rock, a little bit of r&b. Rock, hip hop, rap music is certainly the most listened to and streamed genre of the last number of years. So it's no surprised that kind of music dominates the chart. Surprised no world music, live, blues. [ ] >> Ella: as we head to the break, more from the number one album by lauryn hill. [ ] Gnarly!

And at home, there is a move jagmeet singh, the ndp leader says he'd like to see canada take as well. >> Absolutely believe that we need to recognize palestine as a state to move forward with the two-state solution. To move ultimately forward with a peaceful solution. We maintain our position, we have a private members motion on this. A private members bill on this by my foreign affairs critic. Most importantly, canada should take this position. Justin trudeau should take this position. Other countries have made it clear that's one of the ways forward to bringing the two-state solution back to the forefront and we believe it's a fundmental step towards peace. >> Ella: canada's deputy prime minister says the government's goal is still to see a two-state solution. >> Canada's long standing position has been to support, to call for a two-state solution. That's the path to lasting peace in the middle east. >> Ella: joining me tonight is senior fellow at the university of ottawa and a former canadian ambassador to egypt. What does it mean that countries like this are now recognizing a palestinian state? >> It means two things. First of all, increase in the isolated and recent decision of the international criminal court has just added its weight on it. But it's also the signal by very legitimate countries like egypt, norway and ireland. It's also a message to the united states, and particular to president biden that it's high time he really pushes on netanyahu to start moving on creating a palestinian state. And biden keeps on saying it can only come through negotiation. But that negotiation is like a cat negotiating with a mouse because all the power is in the hands of israel, and right now, you have a government invade a lot of people around the government who are vying eventually to replace have the same objective. Which is no palestinian state, and a. >> Two quasi-fascist member of the government who immediately are deciding to expand the settlement, even though the poor palestinian in the west bank have absolutely no say in what is going on in the international scene. But it's also a very strong signal to benjamin netanyahu nhl I hope, dwr because at the end the whole issue is the war in gaza, which has perpetrated all kinds of horrors for the population of gaza and never

ceases. For benjamin netanyahu. As long as the war continues, he continues as prime minister and he's not under his judicial problem he has. >> Ella: do you think this signals a broader shift in europe in support away from israel? >> I don't like the word away from israel. We all recognize that israel in its own right is an extraordinary country. I keep on saying that because people tend to always look at the horror that happened in gaza, but israel is also a country of scientific prowess. There's I think there's a commitment on the part of the european to maintain the relationship with israel. But at the same time, with, gave a very strong install that enough is enough and get on with the creation of an enemy palestinian state. I know that the saudis and others are on the same yoke. The real issue enough countries in the world to put enough pressure on israel. Living in peace, side by side. >> Ella: we heard before the deputy prime minister and the ndp lead rer leader . Ndp leader wants to see canada recognize a palestinian state. The deputy prime minister saying rng. What would need to happen for canada to m. >> I think we'll probably be the last one to do so because we're under the pressure of the united states to follow through with whatever joe biden is pursuing. Biden oncish. Because normally it goes to recognized territory. You have to have the -- ail the legal condition of a state are not applied at the present state to the palestinian because they have no control on their future, nor on their institution. >> Ella: well, we've run out of time. But thank you so much for your insights today. Senior fellow at the university of ottawa and former canadian ambassador to egypt. >> Thank you very much for having me.
