she's old enough to have read through the processes and procedures that usada and wada make you reade you go to a world championships or olympics. you're responsible for what goes into your body. i feel for her if this wasn't her fault. even if it wasn't her fault and something was pushed on her, i still don't think she should be able to compete because that opens up another can of worms. well, i -- this was given to me and what if it's steroids or this -- i don't like it. if it's in your system, there are rules for rules. if you broke the rules you don't get to compete. >> it does seem that would become this loophole of sorts because her being a minor, jim, is one of the main reasons that the judges decided to move forward in allowing her to compete until a full investigation is completed. they said she's a minor. that posed an exceptional circumstance and they argued that by preventing her from competing would cause her irreparable harm. jim, do you see her as a victim here in a system that doesn't play by the rules? and if so, how should these situations be handled going forward?

nothing else, clean sport at the olympic games, the ioc and wada preparing a level playing field forit out, see who is the best in the world, didn't happen. and that was a failure, i think, on wada and honestly the ioc at this olympics and it's a big -- they need to make it right. >> yeah. well, the world anti-doping agency says they're now going to investigate her entourage as part of, we now know, this banned substance and two other heart medications that were not banned, this cocktail that she had. again, she's 15 years old. we look at the silver medal winner, alexandra trusova, who was just really inconsolable when she came off the ice, shouting at her coach. she didn't want to be touched. these are minors and the whole time she's holding a stuffed animal. should the ioc be doing more to protect, essentially, these children? >> well, if you're going to allow children to be at the -- to compete at the world stage, the pressure out there is immense, and you're dealing with margins of error that separate gold and bronze that are just almost intangible in those differences, and so th

i have no idea wada had this ruling that if you're under 16, there is different consequences for drugsking drugs. it is not okay for anybody to take any performance enhancing drugs, but to say it is okay for a child or more okay for a child to do so just seems so extreme and i can't believe that wada has this type of case. to allow a 15-year-old to almost get away with it at this point. we have seen and heard some stories of abuse coming from her coaches, and her support team around her. and it is important to note that every sporting federation, they travel with sports medicine doctors to their competition. the doctor that the russian figure skating team travels with is an anesthesiologist. nothing to do with sports medicine. this doctor has been involved in doping scandals with the russian rowing team before joining the russian figure skating team. so this is nothing new for this team surrounding this young skater, which has put her in a really terrible position. and it is really unfair when you think about a child that may not have known what was going into their body, but a field o

the wada's head said that the doping of children was people and unforgivable.made the decision after hearing and said provisional suspension shod not be imposed. laura scott is in beijing. >> it's worth noting that the panel was tasked with looking at the matter of the apparent anti-doping rule violation or what happens to the metals that have yet to be awarded one week after the competition concluded. we have had quite a lot of reaction already. the world anti-doping agency saidhey are disappointed by the ruling, said the -- saying that the rules don't allow for exceptions to be made in the mandatory provisional suspect -- provisions managed -- mandatory provisional suspensions. prioritization needs to be that athletes don't come to these events to compete. they are saying that that didn't happen in the case of kamila valieva's sample. the paralympic and olympic committees say they are disappointed and said it appears to be another chapter in the systemic and disrespected regard for clea sport by russia. she is able to return to the ice and has done so today a

it's called wada.d unforgivable and that doctors, coaches and other support personnel found provided performance enhancing drugs to minors should be banned for life. and personally, i also think that they should be in prison. now, john, earlier i actually spoke to the founding president of wada. he told me thus far the punishment on russia has been too lenient and perhaps it's time far time-out for russia. that the country should be banned outright, john. >> what incentive do they have to stop if their athletes are continued to allow to compete. selina wang, thank you so much for being there for us. >>> in a rare and aggressive move, canadian prime minister justin trudeau invoking the emergencies act to crack down on anti-vax seen mandate protests. this move allows the federal government to expand measures to clear the blockades by hundreds of triuckers. paula newton is live for us in ottawa with more. these are pretty sweeping powers allowed by this act. tell us what's happening here, paula. >> report

>> it is interesting, you brought up the world anti-doping agency, wada, they want the suspension in place. the ioc seems to want the same thing here. so you have these organizations that oversee this don't want this to happen. it is very curious to know what's going on behind the scenes now, the actual diplomacy, not just sport, but the diplomacy taking place to get her back on the ice. maybe between russia and china here. she's practicing right now? what is her process over the next few days? >> reporter: yeah, john. i think you mentioned a really interesting dynamic here. all of these different agencies, the wada, russian anti-doping agency, the ioc, they have a few days to hammer all of this out, and valiyeva as of now because she did have that suspension lifted by the russian anti-doping association, in the interim period there have been pictures of her, people have seen her taking the ice, she has been practicing, but you can only imagine, john, she's only 15 years old, the incredible stress that she's under, but if the ioc challenge, if it wins and she is out of the games, she

it is time to say what more has to happen before the ioc and wada wake up and decide to do the righten an interim suspension by the british horseracing authority after a video on social media appeared to show him hit a horse with a branch. the former 0lympic equestrian champion turned racehorse trainer — champion turned racehorse trainer will be unable to race horses while investigations continue. the 65—year—old, who trains in wiltshire, has apologised for his actions. on sunday, the bha condemned the video. it appears to show todd strike the horse multiple times while attempting to coax it towards the waterjump in a cross—country schooling session. he's since apologised. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. more on the olympics and the build—up to the liverpool match. more later. colleges are reopening in the indian state of karnataka after being shut after confrontations over the wearing of the hijab in classrooms. hindu and muslim students have been on opposing sides of protests, that have spread to other parts of the coun

the decision from cas has led to criticism from wada and the us olympic committee, while the internationale decision but it doesn't clear valieva of anti—doping — only that she can continue to compete whilst the process of examining december�*s positive sample goes on. because of that, the ioc says there will not be a medal ceremony for the figure skating team event in which valieva was part of the russia team that won gold. the ioc also says there'll will be no ceremony if valieva medals in the individual event. all ceremonies will be arranged once the case has been concluded. in the interest of fairness to all athletes and the national committee is concerned, it would not be a puppet to hold the medal ceremony for the figure skating team event during the olympic went to games in beijing 2022 as it would include an athlete who on the one hand has a positive sample but, but the rules have not been established regarding doping on the other side. in the premier league, newcastle's hopes of avoiding relegation from the premier league have been setback. the club's confirmed today that kieran t

when the anti-doping agency lifted her suspension and now at the beijing games when the ioc and the wada did everything they could to have the suspension put back in place. but there was more to it. >> every single case is very different. this one hasn't even reached the end of its case yet. but in terms of miss richardson's case, she tested positive on the 19th of june, quite a way ahead of the games. the results came in early order, you saw, to deal with the case, on time, before the games. miss richardson accepted a one-month period of ineligibility, which began on june 28th. i would suggest that there isn't a great deal of similarity between the two cases. >> reporter: so, bianna, though the women's individual competition has ended, there will be a medals ceremony for that, medals will be hanned edh. we still have the ongoing event with the team event. the russian olympic committee took first overall, kamila valiyeva was part of that team, there will be no medals handed out here at the beijing games while that case is pending. they're finding out whether or not she is responsible for

it is time to say what more has to happen before the ioc and wada wake up and decide to do the rights from manchester city last night in the champions league. what would liverpool give for a big win in the first leg of their last 16 tie in milan? they are facing the italian champions inter later this evening, and john murray and pat nevin are at the san siro for 5live. outside the world —famous outside the world—famous stadium which isjust over there. the san siro. two of the most famous names in european football. the italian champions, second in the league, against liverpool, second and england. you have liverpool as strong favourites for the type? i would just go with favourites. inter milan— would just go with favourites. inter milan have — would just go with favourites. inter milan have a lot could have well in europe _ milan have a lot could have well in europe for— milan have a lot could have well in europe for a long time. liverpool are not— europe for a long time. liverpool are not the — europe for a long time. liverpool are not the youngest team john inter mitan— are not th

that was on the promise that wada was going to insure that every russian athlete that did compete one clean and had passed their drug tests and they obviously dropped the ball on this one big time, and it's now thrown a grenade in the middle of the olympics and stolen the moment, as christine just so eloquently said, from clean athletes from around the world, both from the u.s. and other countries, that want their moment and want their sacrifice to do it the right way to be rewarded and we can all know and hope that they are the stars and inspirations that we want and so desperately need them to be. >> travis and christine, thank you both so much. appreciate it. >> just ahead, a look at a high profile murder tonight. what it says about hate crimes in the u.s. and the overall rising crime rate. with pronamel repair toothpaste, we can help actively repair enamel in its weakened state. it's i innovative. my go to toothpaste is going to be pronamel repair.

consequences if the ioc and if the court of arbitration for sport have enough backbone here along with wadaectively they have enough backbone to do it, then perhaps for the time being this poor 15-year-old girl, or unfortunate 15-year-old girl, will be the victim. but she could continue her career subsequently. she tested positive around christmas time, and the russians apparently didn't take note of it. they pushed her forward toward the olympics. what's curious as a side note about this, as best we can understand, the drug in question is generally for medicinal purposes prescribed to older people who have heart problems like angina. the only possibility, and there's even some dispute about this among people who are very expert in sports medicine, the only possible advantage would be increased efficiency in terms of oxygen intake for endurance athletes like long-distance runners, cyclists, cross-country skiers at the olympics. but the counter to that is if you're taking, even a 15-year-old girl, and you're putting her through grueling training sessions, four, five hours at a time, then end

anti-doping as i'm sure you know and wada is a scope that is a net that casts farther than u.s.ar as what's going on and how people are being tested locally by their governing bodies and doping control agencies, whether that be in russia or, you know, in kenya or in any country of the world. how the infrastructure -- if any infrastructure exists to do said testing. and i think that's where the biggest issues come. >> can i ask you, before you go, and by the way, we both have tested negative, so, you know, that's why we're able to be in this space. can you give me an idea what it felt like later to get a gold medal where you weren't able to be on the podium to receive it, if there is a way in which you can convey to other american athletes who might be experiencing the same thing upcoming from this game. what was that like? >> i can't convey that but i haven't yet received that gold medal. we're in the process of scheduling an awards ceremony to be announced at a later date. but after all this time, yes, i have yet to still receive the -- >> 2012? >> yes. >> okay. >> so, yes, tha
