The Kindness Of Strangers: Toronto's Global Medic Lands In Sri Lanka

Their job: train those affected by the ongoing war to help themselves.

Global Medic is a sort of Toronto-based version of the Red Cross. It doesn't matter where the world's trouble spots are, they respond with whatever help is needed. The group is near the war-torn region in Sri Lanka, training those trapped in the endless battle to help care for the people back home.

CityNews anchor Gord Martineau has gone along for the trip. See his report below.
