GRACED STAGES AROUND THE WORLD.

DUTOIT WAS THE MUSIC DIRECTOR OF
THE MONTREAL SYMPHONY FOR 25
YEARS.
WHEN THE ALLEGATIONS SURFACED,
THE MANAGEMENT SAID IT HAD NOT
RECEIVED ANY FORMAL REPORTS OF
THAT NATURE.
THAT HAS CHANGED.
ON FRIDAY, THE OSM RECEIVED A
COMPLAINT OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT
AND IS LAUNCHING AN
INVESTIGATION.
THE MONTREAL SYMPHONY SAID IT IS
DETERMINED TO MAINTAIN AND
INTENSIFY THE UNCONDITIONAL
COMMITMENT TO RESPECT THE

POLICY.

WITH LIVER FAILURE AND
SPARKED A NATIONAL DISCUSSION
ABOUT TRANSPLANT POLICY IS
HEADING HOME TO NEWFOUNDLAND.
DISCHARGED FROM THE TORONTO
HOSPITAL.
A DEVELOPMENT HER FAMILY AND
FRIENDS ARE CALLING A CHRISTMAS
MIRACLE.
I SPOKE WITH DELILAH SAUNDERS IN
HER HOSPITAL ROOM ON TUESDAY
AFTER SHE SAID DOCTORS TOLD HER
SHE WAS INELIGIBLE FOR A
REPLACEMENT LIVER BECAUSE SHE
HAD NOT ABSTAINED FROM ALCOHOL
FOR 6 MONTHS.

RECOVER.

>>> THE PRIME MINISTER JUSTIN
TRUDEAU HAS DELIVERED HIS
CHRISTMAS MESSAGE.

SAID.
>> PRIME MINISTER JUSTIN
TRUDEAU: WHETHER IT IS LENDING A
HAND TO A NEIGHBOUR OR
VOLUNTEERING FOR A CAUSE WE
BELIEVE IN, LET'S
GIVE GENEROUSLY AND LIVE OUT THE
VALUES THAT BRING US TOGETHER.
LET'S ALSO REACH OUT AND LISTEN
TO THOSE NEXT DOOR, ACROSS THE
AISLE, AND AT THE DINNER TABLE.
BUILDING A BETTER WORLD STARTS
WITH WHERE WE WORK AND LIVE, IN
OUR COMMUNITY AND AT HOME.
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
>> ADRIENNE: NOW, MIDNIGHT MASS
HAS ALREADY HAPPENED IN
BETHLEHEM.
WHICH CHRISTIANS BELIEVE TO BE
THE BIRTHPLACE OF THEIR SAVIOUR.
JESUS CHRIST.
THE LATIN PATRIARCH OF JERUSALEM
LED THE MASS
AT THE CHURCH OF THE NATIVITY.
THE CELEBRATIONS HAVE BEEN MUTED
THIS YEAR AFTER DONALD TRUMP
ANNOUNCED HE WILL MOVE THE U.S.
EMBASSY TO JERUSALEM.
AS ALWAYS, THOUGH, SOME TOURISTS
WERE DETERMINED TO VISIT THE
HOLY CITY NO MATTER WHAT.
>>> THE U.S. IS NOW NOT ALONE IN
ITS DETERMINATION TO MOVE ITS
EMBASSY TO JERUSALEM.
GUATEMALA WILL DO THAT TOO.
THE CENTRAL AMERICAN COUNTRY WAS
ONE OF A HANDFUL TO SIDE
WITH THE U.S. IN THE FACE OF THE
U.N. RESOLUTION TO PUSH THE
UNITED STATES TO REVERSE ITS
RECOGNITION OF JERUSALEM AS THE
CAPITAL OF ISRAEL.
GUATEMALA HAPPENS TO BE A MAJOR
RECIPIENT OF U.S. AID.
THE U.S. HAS SUGGESTED COUNTRIES
THAT DID NOT SIDE WITH THEM
COULD LOSE THEIR FUNDING.
>>> BEFORE THERE WAS SANTA
CLAUSE -- CLAUS AND CAROLING AND
THE MARKETING OF
CHRISTMAS, THERE WAS ST.
NICHOLAS.
A PRIEST WHOSE GENEROSITY WAS
LEGENDARY.
THERE DOES NOT SEEM TO BE DOUBT
WHERE HE LIVES.
OR WHAT HE DID.
WHERE HE IS BURIED IS ANOTHER
STORY.
HERE IS NIL KOKSAL ON THE SEARCH
TO REVEAL THE SECRETS OF THE
FAMOUS St. NICHOLAS
CHURCH.

CLAUS THAT MANY KNOW OF US, THAT
JOLLY MAN STUFFED INTO A RED
SUIT,
THERE WAS ST. NICHOLAS.
THIS WAS HIS HOME.
THIS WAS HIS CHURCH.
BUT IS IT WHERE HE IS BURIED?
WHY DOES IT MATTER?
THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS COMES
WITH A DOSE OF THE MACAB HERE.
THIS IS SOUTHERN TURKEY.
IT IS 20° IN DECEMBER.
NOT A SNOWFLAKE IN SIGHT.
THE FAMOUS CHURCH IS ALMOST
ENTIRELY SWALLOWED UP BY THE
GREENHOUSES OF THE AGRICULTURE
TOWN.
NICHOLAS WAS A PRIEST IN THE
FOURTH CENTURY.
CANONIZED FOR GENEROSITY.
THESE STILL GIVE A GOOD IDEA
WHAT HE
WAS KNOWN FOR.
HELPING CHILDREN AND SAILORS.
IT IS THAT HISTORY THAT DRAWS
VISITORS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
>> TAKE US BACK TO A REAL
SAINT THAT ACTUALLY LIVED 1600
YEARS AGO.
>> REPORTER: CENTURIES AFTER HIS
DEATH IN THE MIDDLE AGES, THE
CHURCH WAS AS IMPORTANT A STOP
FOR PILGRIMS AS JERUSALEM.
EVEN TODAY, COMING HERE IS STILL
A DEEPLY SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE.
THIS MAN IS VISITING FROM
UKRAINE.
IT IS HIS FOURTH TIME HERE.
>> FOR US, IT IS ORTHODOX
CHRISTIANS.
MOST SACRED PLACE IN THE WORLD.
>> Reporter: THE PLACE WHERE
THEY WERE PRAYING UNDERNEATH,
COULD MAKE IT
MORE SIGNIFICANT.
THE TURKISH TEAM THAT IS
RESEARCHING THE CHURCH AND HAS
BEEN DOING SO FOR DECADES SAID
THEY FOUND A STRUCTURE
UNDERNEATH THAT PLACE OF PRAYER.
AND WHAT IS UNDERNEATH COULD
FINALLY PROVE WHERE ST. NICHOLAS
IS BURIED.
IT IS IMPORTANT, THE HEAD OF THE
TURKISH TEAM SAID FOR RELIGIOUS
HISTORY.
MANY BELIEVES HE WAS BURIED IN A
CASKET ALREADY ON DISPLAY.
ITALIANS INSIST THE SAINT'S
REMAINS WERE STOLEN AND TAKEN.
THE RELIGIOUS SIGNIFICANCE,
THERE ARE TOURISM DOLLARS AT
STAKE.
WHERE THE SAINTS PREACHED AND
PRAYED,
THE FAITHFUL LIKE THIS MAN SAID
IT IS WHAT NICHOLAS DID, NOT
WHERE HE IS BURIED THAT MATTERS.

REMAINS ARE.

BROUGHT THOSE THINGS TO PUBLIC
LIFE. SINCE LEAVING OFFICE, U.S.
PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER HAS BEEN

PLAINS TO HAVE A GOOD LOOK
AROUND.
THIS IS THE PLACE OF PILGRIMAGE
AND JUST TO GIVE YOU A SENSE OF
IT, PLAINS IS A PLACE OF 7
CHURCHES FOR 600 PEOPLE.
IT IS A PLACE LOCALS DESCRIBE AS
JUST SO FLAT.
WATER DOES NOT KNOW WHICH WAY TO
RUN AND A PLACE OF TWO FOREVER
LINKED INDUSTRIES, PEANUTS AND
JIMMY CARTER.
TOURISTS HAVE COME FOR BOTH FOR
YEARS.

PLAINS FIXTURE.
A FRIEND OF THE CARTERS WHO
WORKS AT THE CHURCH.

ANNOUNCED CANCER SPREAD TO HIS
BRAIN, AN EDITORIAL CARTOONIST
DREW A COUPLE HAMMERING AN OLD
CAMPAIGN SIGN IN THE LAND.
-- THE LAWN.
WITH A NEW SLOGAN, JIMMY CARTER
FOR CANCER SURVIVOR.
THERE IS AN IDEA.
SHE HURRIED TO GET HUNDREDS OF
SIGNS MADE.
THE PEOPLE OF PLAINS SCRAMBLED
TO GET THEM
ON THEIR LAWN.
>> WHEN HE FIRST CAME HOME FROM
THE CANCER TREATMENT, HIS FIRST
ONE, WE WANTED A -- TO SHOW THAT
EVERYBODY IN PLAINS WAS
SUPPORTING HIM.
AND WELCOMING.
AND, YOU KNOW, WE ARE USED TO
CARTER SIGNS IN PLAINS.
IT JUST SEEMED PERFECT TO GREET
HIM WITH THE CARTER FOR CANCER
SURVIVOR SIGN.

THRILLED AND SUSPECTED
IMMEDIATELY IT WAS HER
HANDIWORK.
HE CALLED YOU?

WAS DOWN AT THE HARDWARE STORE
PICKING UP SCREWS.
HE WAS PROBABLY WORKING ON ONE
OF HIS WOODWORKING PROJECTS.
FIXING THINGS, HE FIXES THINGS
AROUND THE CHURCH.
ONE DAY, HE WAS AT MY HOUSE FOR
A MEAL, AND I LOOKED UP AND HE
WALKED OUT OF THE HOUSE CARRYING
ONE OF MY CHAIRS.
AND THE NEXT MORNING ABOUT 7:30,
HE WAS BACK AT THE HOUSE WITH
THE CHAIR.
HE WAS FIXED IT.
-- HAD FIXED IT.
HE IS A HANDYMAN, NEIGHBOUR,
FELLOW CHURCH
GOER.
HE IS JUST A CITIZEN.
>> Adrienne: THE WELL DRESSED
CAPACITY CROWD LINED UP.
ALL BETTER FOR THE SECRET
SERVICE.
ONCE INSIDE, A LITTLE WINDOW
INTO CARTER'S
CONTRIBUTION.
HE MADE THE CROSS.
HE MADE THE COLLECTION PLATES
TOO. A FEW PICTURES.
A FEW DIRECTIONS.

IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW, I HAVE
TEENAGERS HERE TO SHOW YOU.

TEACHING.
WE WILL START IN THE MIDDLE.

TALKED ABOUT LESSONS OF
LEADERSHIP AND KINDNESS.
EACH OF US HAS A RESPONSIBILITY
TO TAKE OUR TALENT AND ABILITY
AND OUR OWN LIFE AND TO USE IT
IN ORDER TO EXEMPLIFY THE FINEST
ELEMENTS OF MORALITY AND ETHICAL
STANDARDS.
>> ADRIENNE: IT IS NOT JUST
TOURISTS LISTENING IN.
AMONG THEM, THE BROWNS.
YOU SEE IN THE '70s, ROBERT
BROWN WAS
THE UNDER SECRETARY OF LABOUR.
HE ADMIRED CARTER, FOR HIS
BIRTHDAY PRESENT, HIS KIDS
BROUGHT HIM HERE.
HE SECRETLY HOPED FOR A MOMENT
ALONE. PROBABLY EVERYBODY DID.

HE WAS 91 AT THE TIME.
SHE IS NOT FAR BEHIND.
FINALLY THE BROWNS.
THIS IS UNDER SECRETARY BOB
BROWN'S ONE CHANCE TO SAY HELLO
TO HIS OLD BOSS.
AND YET, HE DOESN'T SAY A WORD.
>> LOOKING GOOD.
>> ADRIENNE: THEY SMILE AND GET
THE PICTURE AND LEAVE.
WE FOLLOWED OUTSIDE TO FIND OUT
WHY.
DID YOU HOPE TO HAVE A MOMENT
WITH HIM?
DID HE RECOGNIZE YOU?
>> I DON'T KNOW.
I DIDN'T EXPECT HIM TO.
I WAS REALLY -- WHEN I FIRST
SEEN HIM COME OUT, I ALMOST
STARTED CRYING.
BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN A LONG, LONG
TIME SINCE I HAVE SEEN HIM.
YOU FLOW -- KNOW, HE PROBABLY
LOOKED AT ME AND THOUGHT...
>> ADRIENNE: TOURISTS DON'T
REALLY STAY LONG.
AND EVENTUALLY THE PULSE OF
PLAINS GOES TO THE NORMAL
RESTING RATE.
AROUND THIS TIME, NEAR 6:00,
THERE IS OFTEN ANOTHER SERVICE.
USUALLY JUST A COUPLE OF DOZEN
OF THE REGULARS.
IT USED TO BE PRESIDENT CARTER
AND MRS. CARTER WOULD WALK TO IT
FAITHFULLY.
IT USED TO BE.
NO ONE REALLY EXPECTS THAT NOW.
HE IS TIRED.
AT THE STROKE OF 6, NO SIGN.
THEY HAVE TO GET USED TO NOT
SEEING HIM.
BUT THEN, A LITTLE QUIET CONVOY.
AND THERE HE IS.
TOO WEAK TO WALK THE WHOLE WAY
TO CHURCH.
A MAN WHO CLEARLY DOESN'T WANT
TO MISS A MOMENT.
COMMITMENT JUST THE CARTER WAY.

TEACHING SUNDAY SCHOOL AT THE
