Global National with Robin Gil Good evening and thank you for joining us.

We begin with breaking news tonight from Ethiopia.

Global News has confirmed a group of volunteers and staff with the Alberta based charity Canadian Humanitarian is being detained in Ethiopia.

Liam Nixon is tracking this global news exclusive from our Left Bridge newsroom tonight.

Liam Yes, Robin Global Affairs is aware and has consular officials on the ground now working to ensure the well being of the 13 detainees now.

Originally, there were 18 Canadians being held, but Global News has confirmed that five were released on Friday.

Canadian humanitarian spokesperson Justin Steed says there are now those 13 detainees, three staff members and 10 volunteers, and they're being held at a police station in the city of Gondor, 600 kilometers north of the capital Addis Ababa, to Ethiopian staff are also currently being held.

Steed says the group is being investigated on allegations they were accused of practicing medicine without permission and had dispensed expired medication.

Now, In a statement issued to Global News, Steed says in part.

Just like all of our trips, our team and organization followed all necessary steps and protocols to ensure our group had all permits needed to provide medical support and care while in Ethiopia.

While we cannot comment on the specifics of the expiry of the medication, we can say with confidence that all medicine and care offered by our team was safe.

It goes on to say, in collaboration with Global Affairs Canada and the Canadian Embassy in Ethiopia, we're working hard to resolve this as quickly as possible, ensure the fair and humanitarian treatment of our team in accordance with internationally recognized laws and expedite their safe return to Canada.

Canadian Humanitarian is a non political organization that has sent hundreds of volunteers to Ethiopia over the last 15 years.

Steed says the organization does not engage in any activity outside of their humanitarian efforts, and this is actually a long weekend in Ethiopia, so the detainees aren't expected to be back in court until at least Tuesday.

Robin Global's Liam Nixon in Lethbridge, Alberta.

Let's bring in our auto A bureau chief Mercedes Stevenson Mercedes.

What do your government sources saying about this case?

Well, Robin Just two weeks after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau returned home from a warm and fuzzy visit with the prime minister of Ethiopia, thes Canadians find themselves detained.

And tonight the Canadian government is confirming they are aware of the detention, although they wouldn't give us a lot of details because there are privacy rules.

They did say that the Canadians who have been detained are receiving full consular access.

We also talked to and received a statement from Rob Ola Font.

He's the parliamentary secretary for foreign affairs, which means it's his job in Justin Trudeau's government to help Canadians who are in trouble overseas.

In addition to confirming that they were aware of the Canadians detention and they are getting access to and help from the embassy, he said.

Thus far, the Ethiopian government has been open and cooperative, so that may give some hope to those who are concerned about the status of these Canadians.

We also spoke with an international affairs expert who has worked with UNICEF in the past as well as well as other large international organizations about the use of expired medications and whether that would be highly unusual.

I consider Ethiopia one of the more developed African nations, and I understand that it had to do with them not being properly registered.

But also the factor was using expired pharmaceuticals.

Um, I can tell you that from working with you myself and for what?

For deputy of the World Health Organization, I have seen actually expired medication used quite widely, but in very remote areas.

Now, Robin, that recent visit from Prime Minister Trudeau may be helpful in this situation.

The Ethiopian and Canadian governments agreed that they wanted to do more trade together and that Canada wanted to do more to help Ethiopia.

The prime minister of Ethiopia is Abby Muhammed.

He is seen as a Progressive, who has tried to move the country away from its past with human rights abuses.

In fact, well, it is still illegal to be gay in Ethiopia.

He has been moving forward, so much so that he received the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts on international security last year.

Here's what our expert had to say about where things stand between Canada and Ethiopia.

Relations between Canada and Ethiopia, very good Canada has quite a big presence there in a number of ways are not only diplomatically but also in terms of the trade and investment.

There are a lot worse governments on the African continent bending no Ethiopia.

And although the country has faced some allegations of human rights abuses, that sort of thing, things that work pretty well, they're for the most part.

So Robin, obviously we will be staying tuned.

But the Canadian government is aware of the situation, a relatively good relationship between Canada and Ethiopia and a good relationship between the two prime ministers, which might help here if needed.

Robin Mercedes Stevenson in Ottawa, the world is scrambling to stop the spread of cove in 19 Maur, and more cases are popping up in countries far from the epicenter of the outbreak.

Tonight, there are more than 85,000 confirmed cases around the world.

More than 2000 people have died, mostly in China.

But the scare is how quickly cases are multiplying.

At least 56 countries now have confirmed cases of Cove in 19.

Iran has the world's highest death toll outside of China, and cases spiked again today in the US The man in Washington state has died from the virus, prompting the governor to declare an emergency Here in Canada.

Woman in her sixties who traveled from Tehran to Vancouver has contracting the illness.

There are 20 confirmed cases in our country, and, as David Achin reports, right now, it's all about slowing the spread.

A Saturday morning press conference, a new confirmed case of Cove in 19.

Obviously they're Canadians in now, in Quebec and Ontario and in British Columbia, who have tested positive and a common link to all the Canadian cases.

The infected patients had recently traveled, often to Iran.

This demonstrates how the situation is evolving around the world, and now our response has to continue to evolve.

But in the United States, at least four cases have been confirmed with no travel connection evidence, authorities say, of person to person, local transmission.

And in Washington state, the first Cove in 19 death, the Trump Administration announced new travel restrictions on those coming from Iran and warned all Americans not to travel to certain parts of Italy.

Your South Korea new federal funds will also be made available to state and local health authorities for testing, containment and treatment.

We've taken the most aggressive actions to confront the Corona virus.

They are the most aggressive taken by any country.

But the president's claim is an arguable point.

The province of Ontario, for example, has administered Maur tests than have been done in all of the United States.

Same thing in BC where AH 1000 individuals have already been tested.

That's 1425 tests, which is, uh, well over twice as many have been done in the entire United States early and comprehensive testing is one of the key ways public health authorities can contain transmission of the disease.

They don't have the testing available in the states.

Yet it all has to be done in Atlanta, meanwhile, some frontline health care workers air pressing the Public Health Agency of Canada to improve the protocol used when assessing potential Cove in 19 patients.

They want to be issued respirators in addition to visors and surgical masks.

We need to talk about the precautionary principle, which is simple.

We have to have the best protection now, whether it's President Trump or Canada's chief public health officials, they all say the risk to public health remains low.

But there was work being done in Canada and elsewhere.

Toe learn more about the virus, its incubation period and how it gets transmitted from person to person.

And that work is important to keep the risk low.

Robin David taken in Ottawa Thanks, David.
