- A tour group visiting an ice cave in southeastern Iceland was caught off guard when tonnes of ice came crashing down around them, killing one person and injuring another. Eric Sorensen explains how this tragedy has sparked concern about Iceland's tourism industry and why at least one expert says these types of expeditions, that are popular with Canadians, are becoming more dangerous.

As a geoscientist, the glacier story in Iceland less shocks me and more annoys me. You are in an ice cave... in summer. This ain't Hoth, people!
May Love Peace Prevail In The World....
Jeez, considering what a piece of crap the cybertruck is, I wouldn't want to be testing those space suits.
We must focus on implementing policies that make it economically viable for families to grow and thrive within our nation. Instead of prioritizing the influx of individuals who may struggle to integrate into our cultural values, we should address the root causes of economic distress. By fostering an environment where citizens are encouraged to start and raise families, we will strengthen our social fabric and ensure that our immigration policies align with our national interests. It is essential that we maintain a balance between welcoming newcomers and ensuring that their contributions are harmonious with our societal norms.
This is great but people will have to be happy with paying more taxes to support families.
@@ae5532 really how about cutting hotel rentals for new comers and redirect those savings to the above
Many visitors who came here are working and getting paid cash. What is the government doing on this matter?
Nothing.
then they collect social assistance on top of that. Robbing our system dry. Long time issue.
A lot of them actually, they stayed in Canada for one year working cash and then go back home for a few months come back to Canada go in cycle for so many years no questions ask. So ridiculous no wonder a lot of people can't find jobs.. smh
You want businesses to suffer paying expensive Canadians instead? I guess you want hurt profits and pay more for everything.
Not suppose to be there in the first place
I thought targeting residential buildings was a war crime.
It is, try and go and fulfill the warrant...
It's OK if 🇺🇦 or 🇮🇱 but if Russia does that, it's a different story
@@maxlemusa3520 I know you're being sarcastic, but lets agree war crimes are never ok
100% it is, so is targeting essential infrastructure like dams and hospitals
@@thesupremeveggieburger427 Is there an arrest warrant issued for Putin and Zelenskyy?
I have a problem with billionaires launching space missions and hand picking their own crew.
Well, it's not you're call.
@@melkeeler2236 Why? because it's "their" money and "their" earth? I've been gauged for years (so have you) for these greedy people to become billionaires. Now they're polluting the earth's outer atmosphere. Awesome!
The Federal government and private enterprises called for big immigration workers but didn't calculate the housing impact?!...
They did! They don’t care about us! Spread the word, nobody seems to know 🫣
nor did they calculate the health care impact - it was unfair to Canadians to bring over so many foreigners at once - this government has done a terrible job
They just want you to work for cheap labour. They couldn't careless if you sleep on the streets when your shift is done.
People have been telling me the word “disconnect” almost everyday 😢
@@Merakis100 As a foreigner, I'm beggining to agree with you, no doubt!
Immigration moratorium for at least 10 years. We don’t need anyone else
Yup, I'm happy paying higher taxes and higher prices due to loss of low paid workers.
Good GAWD 🤦🏻 Our climate is progressively getting hotter & hotter. It's BRAIN DEAD to do ice cave tours in summer. Absolutely negligent.
We had global cooling in the 70s. Now Global warming. Some scientists said we will be returning to Global cooling soon. Let's tax are way to room temperature.😢
Iceland, wait for it !!!
67% said there was too much immigration, 33% are new Canadians
Another great reason why ice caves under glaciers are not tourist attractions, especially with climate change
Enough with the “we need to regulate”. Let people know what they’re doing is dangerous... no one is coming to save you -you fool. What happened to the days when we had the choice to make dumb mistakes- now we treat people like helpless babies.
I must admit I believe Justin did a good job with COVID-19. But did the lousy job with immigration!!!
They will need to make sure they have people to replace all of those rail workers who decide to just quit.
You mean the ones who live in their parents basements?
@@melkeeler2236 I thought they were very well paid.
Global warming has been proven to be fact …. So let’s go into an ice cave ….. !!!
Warming is good. Better growing conditions, More food, less fuel for heating. Now if we had more carbon dioxide plants would produce 30% more food. A win win. I love science.
@@patrickcowan8701 🤡 take
@@patrickcowan8701no, that a reductive and short sighted opinion that is removed from the big picture of what will happen.
They need to hold this tour company accountable for the innocent life lost. Tour to ice cave is totally prohibited in summer months and should’ve never ever taken place.
i boycott any and all business with tws. im voting with my loonie
What's a "Tor" company?
I like how she said climatic changes and not climate change. because there is a difference and she is correct
A UK soldier in the wrong country
Ice cave tourism, I meannnnn.....
Typical, people asking the government to make life safe. There will always be thrill seekers, nothing wrong with that as long as your inform.
My countryman!😢
No real news here
And what would make you say that ?
People who go to shake hands with death just to see more rocks but deeper 🤪
Given the significant ice melt happening in the Far South and North, we're going to see an uptick in volcanic activity and potentially more earthquakes. The melting glaciers are relieving pressure in those regions, which is pushing surrounding areas to higher elevations. This is a key factor behind the increased seismic activity we've observed over recent years. It's all interconnected, and the dynamics of Earth’s crust are shifting in response to these changes.
Here say. And you are?
@@melkeeler2236 Just imagine you put 500ibs on your chest and tried to breath. Same effect is happening on our poles.
The weather has no effect on magma many miles underground.

Does anyone know what happened to Donna Friesen?

Серйозно, Україні більше ні цента. Європа і США повинні сказати «ні» нападу на Росію в глибині душі. Ця війна ніколи не закінчиться, і я найбільше боявся, коли Україна атакувала Росію всередині
god bless
In the midst of our great nation’s trials, it is observed that one individual, former President Trump, has taken to the public stage with considerable frequency, addressing the people and articulating his vision for the future. In contrast, Vice President Harris has not engaged in similar public discourse. As the sun rises upon a new day, the question of who shall rise to the occasion and restore order to our domestic affairs, as well as address the complexities abroad, remains. It is the assertion of many that Mr. Trump, with his demonstrated commitment and steadfastness, is the one best suited to fulfill the promises made during his previous campaign. The electorate is called upon to consider whether Mr. Trump, through his proven dedication, is the one to lead us through these challenging times and strive towards the betterment of our great nation.
You're in the wrong country bot.

“Always treat other as you would like them to treat you.” And “love your neighbour as yourself.” That is the Law and the Prophets of the Lord God our true Father in heaven and on earth.
So never worship and pray in the way of the many false prophets who lead all religions.
“But when you pray, go into a room by yourself, and shut the door. Pray to your Father who is there in the secret place; and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you openly.
In your prayers do not go babbling on like the heathen, who imagine that the more they say the more likely they are to be heard. Do not imitate them. Your Father knows what your needs are before you ask him.
This is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
Your kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven,
Give us today our daily bread,
Forgive us the wrong we have done, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us.
And do not bring us to the test, but save us from the evil one.
For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, for ever.
Amen.
For if you forgive others the wrongs they have done, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you do not forgive others, then the wrongs you have done will not be forgiven by your Father.” - (The Prophet and Messiah Jesus of Nazareth at Matthew 6: 6-15) -
“Pass no judgement, and you will not be judged. For as you judge others, so you will yourselves be judged, and whatever measure you deal out to others will be dealt back to you.” - (at Matthew 7: 1-2) -
“In truth I tell you, if anyone obeys my teaching he shall never know what it is to die.” - (at John 8: 51) -
“Always treat others as you would like them to treat you: that is the Law and the Prophets.
Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life and only a few find it.” - (Matthew 7: 12-14) -
“I am the gate; anyone who comes into the fold through me shall be safe. He shall go in and out and shall find pasturage.
The thief comes only to steal, to kill, to destroy; I have come that men may have life, and may have it in all its fullness.” - (John 10: 9-10) -
“Beware of false prophets, men who come to you dressed up as sheep while underneath they are savage wolves. You will recognize them by the fruits they bear.” - (Matthew 7: 15-16) -
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” - (Matthew 7: 21) -
“I am the resurrection and I am life. If a man has faith in me, even though he dies, he shall come to life; and no one who is alive and has faith shall ever die.” - (John 11: 25-26) -
“I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world” - (John 12: 47) -
“Whoever then will acknowledge me before men, I will acknowledge him before my Father in heaven; and whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.” - (Matthew 10: 32-34) -
“I am the way; I am the truth and I am life; no one comes to the Father except by me. If you knew me you would know my Father too.” - (John 14: 6-7) -
“An expert in the law, [a leading religious Pharisee] tested him with this question: ‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ He answered, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind. That is the greatest commandment. It comes first. The second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself. Everything in the Law and the Prophets hangs on these two commandments.’” - (Matthew 22: 35-40) -
“There is no greater love than this, that a man should lay down his life for his friends.” - (John 15: 13) -
“Do not call any man on earth ‘father’ ; for you have one Father and he is in heaven. Nor must you be called ‘teacher’ ; you have one Teacher, the Messiah.’” - (Matthew 23: 9-10) -
“Take care that no one misleads you: For many will come claiming my name…” - (Matthew 24: 4) -
“Many false prophets will arise, and will mislead many; and as lawlessness spreads, men’s love for one another will grow cold. But the man who holds out to the end will be saved. ” - (Matthew 24: 11-13) -
“Teach them to observe all that I have commanded you. And be assured, I am with you always, to the end of time.” - (Matthew 28: 20) -
Yours, in true Spirit and in our one given prayer, 2gointruth, on Tuesday the 27th of August 2024: - (Please read Matthew 5: 14-16) - Where every minute (of both day and night) can be a new beginning for any one of us. Let it always be you. Pray to God often, as prescribed above, before it is too late.
Take you're religious soap box elsewhere.
Go electric but our government is going to make it impossible to buy a Chinese car. Thought the climate thing was real.
A giant leap for commercial space travel!? Are you guys drunk!? There's two! Count 'em! TWO people stranded out there till next year you boneheads!
Metis identification...I thought in canada you can just identify as anything you are not and thats ok? Suddenly its not acceptable?
… thats never been true, you need to see a therapist regularly
