Well now we head to chile which has also been rocked by 3 days of protests violence and looting fires in the capital santiago over the weekend have led to 8 deaths and over 15000 people have been arrested a planned hike in Public Transportation sparked this unrest and thats now been cancelled but the simmering public anger shows no sign of stopping. Chiles capital sense iago. Protest started by students have exploded into a much wider range of violence. Including writing. And some looting. Several people have already been killed by fires and more than a 1000 people have been arrested. But chile is under an official state of emergency. And yes we are at war against a powerful implacable enemy who does not respect anything or anyone. And who is willing to use violence in crime without any limits the. Soldiers are on the streets for the 1st time in nearly 30 years the 1st time since general pinochets military units. Originally about a hike in public transport costs these protests and now about much more inequality and the cost of living. Yet from being destroyed to come back his rhetoric president pinera met with lawmakers and has pledged to reduce excessive inequality the writing has however divided people. Especially the mass torching and destruction of santiago subway system which ordinary people are now cleaning up. So lets see they say i was born and raised here so i saw them build all the metro stations and this metro should be for my grandchildren. Or 10 should be for. Everyone at the end of the world but at the level of some of that the local Authorities Say it will take months to fix meanwhile people are now stockpiling fuel for the week ahead as chile braces for more of the same.

Despite getting credit for lifting millions out of poverty critics accuse him of corruption and anti democratic rule. The canadians head to the polls today and it could be a nail biter for Prime MinisterJustin Trudeau his campaign has been overshadowed by a series of errors that have raised allegations of racism and ethics violations recent polls show trudeaus liberals in a virtual dead heat with the conservatives and that could be good news for smaller parties like the left leaning new Democratic Party. For. In the lead up to kind of those elections its been all but a smooth ride for Prime MinisterJustin Trudeau his Approval Ratings drop to almost record lows and his liberal party is engaged in the neck and neck race but the conservatives both are polling around 30 percent. Despite a Strong Economy and low unemployment trudeaus popularity dipped after a series of scandals like this old photo of trudeau wearing blackface or his violation of conflict of interest rules. During the last weeks of campaigning to do is been trying to make up for his missteps often attacking his main opponent the conservative party heres the question you have to ask yourself do you want 53000000000 dollars worth of conservative cuts or do you want a progressive government that will continue investing in families and investing in communities thats the choice its that simple. And its not important. Its not true those attacks arent the only worry of conservative Leader Andrew Scheer he is also quite unpopular according to the polls in one of the closest races in recent years most of the conservatives and the liberals may not win a big enough majority to govern alone. This is where jack meek seeing leader of the left leaning new Democratic Party could come into play with Approval Ratings soaring for his party sink could become the kingmaker of canadas election as a prospective partner in a liberal minority government.

Going on though you. Were found by you most involved all right guys ok one says hell keep returning to the streets as long as the protests continuing. One manage his Walking Stick now an icon of the movement. Another exciting weekend in the bud think imax meryl phonied of the sports is here with a breakdown so theres so many teams jostling for the top spot. What happened to shock at that one sunday yet they played yesterday and went into the game with a chance of going top if they won and they had previously won 4 games then drawn so they were in good form but they faced hosts often time who the previous much they had beaten the reigning champions by in munich so lets see how it all shook out. Hoffenheim welcome show kids of the southwest looking for back to back wins of the last matchday shot victory of a boy and it would have to be a nother upset with devin wagners side needing just 3 points to go chop off the match day 8 and shell couldnt close off to just 3 minutes Daniel Caligiuri clipping the outside of the post with a sumptuous free kick close but not close enough. As they did against by and it was hoffenheim who struck 1st though alexander newbill could only parry from the last big move on break a marriage did the rest one deal to the hosts. The croatians 1st goal of the season arriving in the 72nd minute. And they put the gang to bed in the 85th minute babeu racing clear of the shellcode offense. Before applying the finishing touch to wrap things up. Nightmare defending from shell. On cloud 9. To nail the final score of wagners side hole tid as the hoffenheim revival continues. Well a bad slip up for shall korea is the 2nd time theyve done this 2nd time that had the chance to go top and just didnt quite get it done not a very good track record on that but you know for talk but generally speaking i mean it means that we have 9 teams there just 2 points apart at the top what does this say about the state of the bundestag a sea of competition right now yeah well i think its great its an exciting time to be a bundesliga fan right now especially in neutral you just watching all these games and every week the tables completely different shape at the top and i mean this is actually a record never ever has happened in the bundesliga before that at this stage there are only 2 point separating 1st from 9th ever since the bundesliga went to 3 points for a win system that was in the mid ninetys and we look at other leagues across europe france theres 10 points between those exact same places spain 6 points a little less because the top sides are struggling but its only 11 england teams are just 2 points we can take a look at that table where we can see that you know among those teams is pretty much all quality sides freiburg you would expect to drop off but everyone else in that list has a fighting chance of finishing at the very least in the top 6 if not the top 4 so a couple of teams that are struggling for consistency that would be the criticism that people would level that but i think its an exciting time for the bundesliga and a real chance for one of those teams to kind of be an outsider to make it into the Champions League or Europa League but you know youre talking at the top of the table we look at the bottom of the table thats actually quite a different story isnt and yet theres one team that really stands out that is not doing so well they were beaten yesterday by cologne who we can we can take a look at the goals 3 nil cologne home victory they are promoted side as a kind of born grew up playing in that rather garish yellow they have not had good time alone here scoring 3 times and part of them still yet to win now how to go on were in the bundesliga a few years ago then dropped down quite dramatically 2 runs so into the 3rd division then bounced back with back to back promotions i think its just come a little bit too soon. Cologne looking a little bit more at home in the bundesliga especially after thats we know when theyd only scored 5 goals this season so for now theyve got 8 slowly but surely getting accustomed whereas part of born i think a down one point so a 5 point margin already for them to get out of the bottom spot ok but the bottom line is if you want to see action turns of the blood this league of this season max merrill from the sports thank you.
