Joseph's Story

Take a compelling look at the problems of child obesity, told through one child's struggle to lose weight. When Joseph weighed close to 200 pounds, his family took drastic measures and sent him to a children's weight-loss camp in the Catskills of New York.

Do No Harm

Cosmetic surgery is a growing and lucrative business, as more Canadians seek to improve their appearance with a quick fix. But as CTV's medical correspondent Avis Favaro found out a "cosmetic surgeon" isn't necessarily a "surgeon". In the competitive, commercial world of private clinics, there are few if any regulations.

I think he was pushed to take matters into his own hands. I have a teenage son and if he was involved with a drug dealer I would be furious and try anything to save him like this father did for his daughter. Why do police often say they can't do anything until it's too late? Whether it be a drug dealer or an abusive spouse, the police can't seem to do anything until something really bad happens. In this case they could have raided the drug dealers home and arrested him. The whole town knew what was going on in that house but yet the police chose to do nothing. Release this man and give him a medal for doing the right thing by his daughter. I can't wait to see the episode on W5, I will certainly be watching this one.
