[ ] >> Heather: an unknown soldier returns to newfoundland soil. A sombre ceremony more than 100 years after the first world war. >> It is a story of heroism and sacrifice. >> Heather: calls for more intelligence training and tools at canada's borders. >>> Facing an endless barrage, ukraine's air defences with windling as zelenskyy urges support. >>> Plus the gnome homes creating a friendly neighborhood. >> It's about making other people happy, especially children. >> Heather: making magic and maintaining it one little door at a time. >> Hello! [ ] >> Announcer: "ctv national news" with heather butts. >> Heather: good evening. A historic homecoming for a newfoundland soldier who went off to war more than a century ago but fell in battle and was buried in a french cemetery. A powerful ceremony in france where hundreds of men from the newfoundland regiment were killed during the first world war. The remains then transferred to the canadian government. Ctv's garrett barry has been following the unknown soldier's repatriation. >> Reporter: one of newfoundland's lost soldiers is finally home tonight. And after more than 100 years, a long journey capped off by a final chapter that started this morning in france. Under blue skies at the base of newfoundland's cariboo memorial, canadian soldiers took one of their own in their arms. Right behind, a hug between premier andrew furey and his young son, serving as the official next of kin. >> To know that somebody's father, somebody's mother didn't know where this person was is overwhelming. To be there with my son, I just feel the weight of being father and premier at the same time. It was quite emotional. >> Reporter: by hearse, by plane, and then by fighter jet escort, the unknown soldier was carried home. Waiting to witness his return, dozens lined the streets of st. John's. >> This is probably one of the most important event in the last 100 years for our province. And to see that the people of newfoundland were supporting us, supporting our boys is amazing. >> Reporter: beaumont hamel is home to a devastating chapter. Within mere minutes on july 1st, 1916, hundreds of young men were killed and injured. After they were ordered over the top by the british commanders. That big push led to german machine gun fire. Newfoundland is part of beaumont hamel, says the mayor of the small french town. We are forever linked. This unknown soldier represents all newfoundlanders who fought and died in the first world war. This soldier's final resting place will be here, a renovated national war memorial in downtown st. John's. A ceremony will be held on july 1st, newfoundland and labrador's memorial day. >> Heather: that will be another sombre day. Garrett, thank you.

>>> With the backdrop of a looming strike at canada's border agency, there are growing calls for better intelligence training and tracking. A recent evaluation of the program monitoring a range of threats highlights gaps in the system. Ctv's tony grace has more. >> Reporter: batches of chemicals that could have become 2 million doses of fentanyl. And 25 million doses of ectasy. Both considered intelligence wins at canada's borders. In a report calling for improved training and tools. >> It provides an important insight into a hidden part of the work of canada border services agency. >> Reporter: an internal review made public this month found insufficient access to intelligence training for officers and analysts, calling it one of the major challenges that could pose risk to the agency. With new recruits often working seven months or more without formal intelligence training. >> Cbsa has been struggling since its creation, this is now two decades ago, to transform it to an intelligence-led organization. >> Reporter: and this intelligence expert says that's critical because of a growing focus on spotting national security threats. Including from the trove of data online that can be open sourced but isn't always sewn together. >> It's a combination of taking broad data, using artificial intelligence, using human capability to come up with a full picture. >> Reporter: just this week, the cbsa underscored that need in its bid to crack down on auto theft. >> We are now expanding our reference to look at things being exported as well. >> Reporter: they are now reviewing their training standards, certifying 12 new instructors at its own training college, and mapping out a new way to measure goals and outcomes. >> The key message that comes out is that the intelligence capabilities that cbsa needs are not really at that point that they are required to be. >> Reporter: what the agency didn't attach to its plan is a timeline timeline. And tonight the union representing border workers, which could strike next month, tell me what they really need is more staff and assurances that new technology will compliment workers, not replace them. Heather. >> Heather: ukraine's president is tonight urging world leaders to supply more protection. The renewed ask comes well after a year canada promised a new system to help with that very type of defence. It still hasn't arrived. Ctv's colton praill reports. >> Reporter: two employees of this mangled hardware store are the latest victims of russia's deadly aerial assault on kharkiv. Dozens were injured today in multiple missile strikes, targeting residential and commercial areas of the eastern border city. [Speaking Alternative Language] >> Reporter: president volodymyr zelenskyy calling on allies to help bolster ukraine's air defence capabilities. >> Today I am announcing... >> Reporter: january 2023, canada committed to delivering ukraine a $400 million surface to air missile system. 16 months later, it still hasn't left the united states. >> The western world should get some guts. I'm sorry for being this emotional, but I just see the people dying in kharkiv every day. >> Reporter: in a statement, the defence ministry pointed to american production delays. Instead highlighting a recent $76 million contribution to a fund aimed at bolstering ukraine's air defences. The attack comes just weeks before a peace summit. Ukraine has created a ten-point proposal for peace that has slowly gathered more international support over the last year as allies push for negotiations to resume. >> They don't want to be seen as pro-russia, but at the same time, they don't want to have an endless funnel of funds and resources and seeing an ongoing war at europe's borders. >> Reporter: putin says they've never refused peace talks, but they must not be resumed on the grounds of only what one party wants. An american proposal gained more traction at a g7 finance minister's meeting in italy today. Russia has pushed back heavily against the idea, even threatening legal action. A final decision is expected next month. >> Heather: toronto police are searching for multiple suspects who opened fire at a jewish girls school. >> One of the questions that I'm sure people are asking is if this is a hate crime. Is this a terrorist act. It's too early in the
