Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

President Trump has had his first meeting

with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

The two leaders discussed terrorism, and cooperation on trade and growth.

North Korea has declared Sunday's ballistic missile test a success.

President Trump described North Korea as a "big, big problem".

We'll look at how his administration dealt with this first test.

Mr Trump's Security adviser is under pressure.

He's accused of discussing sanctions with Russia before the end

He's initially denied this, now he's not so sure.

And in sport Manny Pacquiao's turned to a Twitter poll

We'll look at how this is going to work.

This is the US National Security Adviser, Michael Flynn.

He's accused of discussing sanctions on Russia

with the Russian's US ambassador before Donald Trump

Doing so would have violated laws on private citizens

A senior White House official has said...

to weigh in on the sensitive matter."

Mr Flynn had shifted, he had said sanctions

Next factor in the Washington Post, which has nine current

and former officials saying sanctions did come up.

We also know Michael Flynn has relations with senior Russians.

Here he is at a banquet with Vladimir Putin last year.

I get that if he has done this, it matters and it could break the law.

But it feels like it matters more than that to the people covering it,

this has become symbolic of something? I think it has become a

test of two things. One is whether this is a functioning White House

that has personnel that can do their jobs without becoming captured by

some scandal or upset. The second is it is a test of the President's

loyalty. We have just had the adviser to the president on American

television in the last few minutes saying, Michael Flynn enjoys the

confidence of the president. So there has been speculation over the

course of the weekend over whether the general would be forced out of

his position as national security adviser. But according to the

President's adviser says that is not going to happen. How significant is

this man within Donald Trump's world? It is a very important

position. Whilst you have a team of national security personnel

including the secretary of defence and the Secretary of State, and to

some extent, the secretary of homeland security, the one person

who sits in the White House near the oval office and is there all the

time is the national security adviser. It is a political

appointment by the President, doesn't go through Congress. He is

there all the time and is the last person in the room. It always gives

the national Security adviser and loss of influence. In this case, the

two are close because in their campaign, when national security

figures, including national security figures in the Republican Party were

abandoning Donald Trump and openly criticising him, the one person who

stuck up for him and took his position was General Michael Flynn.

In Donald Trump's world, that earns you a lot of brownie points. I want

to ask about the rhythm of Washington and the relationship

between the president and the city. He is not spending many weekends in

town, years in the sunshine in Florida, what are people making

about? He has already been tries to what he calls the winter White

House. He was there with the Japanese Prime Minister. We have

seen nothing of Melania trumpet here in Washington since the

inauguration. That is very rare. I have not seen it in modern times

since I have been covering the White House. She seems to prefer to go to

Florida. He will fly down to Florida, he likes getting away from

Washington. 96% of residents in the city did not vote for him. He says

Florida is the place he feels most relaxed. There are questions how

much it costs taxpayers in terms of security and be forced one flight.

$3 million was the quote for the first weekend. It is within his

right, all presidents have a place to retreat to, he just seems to do

it a bit more often. Tikay, thank you very much.

One of the remarkable events this weekend was when the president was

told what North Korea had done. Over the weekend, North Korea

announced it had successfully test-launched a mid to long

range ballistic missile. This is the first time

since becoming President that Donald Trump has faced this kind

of provocation from At today's press conference

Donald Trump said this: When I was campaigning, I said it is

not a good situation. Now that I see it, including intelligence

briefings, we have problems a lot of people had no idea how bad they are

and how serious. Not only internationally, but North Korea is

a big, big problem. We will deal with that very strongly.

Earlier the BBC spoke with former US Ambassador to the UN,

Bill Richardson about how Mr Trump has responded.

I believe he made the correct response, basically saying we stand

behind the Japanese, without overreacting and without talking

about what steps the United States and the Allies might take in

response to this violation of the Security Council resolution. I give

him good marks for being restrained. Now he has a lot of options on the

table. Clearly North Korea was testing the new Administration, they

like to get into these ideological and policy skirmishes. I think the

president kept his options open. The next test is, what do we do? They

are not very good options. The first one is go to the Security Council at

the UN, which is what we are doing now. Possibly more sanctions. At the

very least, a condemnation of this ballistic missile, which was

intermediate, it wasn't a long one. It was on routine, but a

provocation, nonetheless. Joe Root is the new test captain

of the England cricket team. He'll take over from Alistair Cook

who resigned last week. For those of you watching

for whom cricket is a mystery, test cricket is the longest version

of the game. Tremendous performance. Joe Root has

played magnificently. Magnificent Hundred from Joe Root in tough

circumstances. He is the dynamo of the team. Joe Root has got used to

being English cricket's great hope. Now he has responsibility. The way

he plays his cricket, the way he goes about his business will lend

itself to be a great captain. In January, he became a great father

for the first time. He will approach leading the same way as he

approaches parenting. It is something you have to learn on the

job. Being a dad, you don't know what to do, you just have to go with

it. Baby Alfie is in white, this is a family who stopped them early. You

will find the root of Joe Root among fertile Yorkshire cricketing soil.

On the outskirts of Sheffield is where it began. He still goes back

to Sheffield Collegiate, which produced Michael Vaughan. His

brother Billy and dad also played here and the name has appeared on

local scorecards further back. The family are everywhere, even upstairs

where Grandma Barbara plays bridge. How do those who know him best judge

his hand? I think he should be OK. You can only tell when they get in

the job. It is very much learning on the job, being a cricket captain. A

lot of responsibility being England cricket captain, hopefully it will

be successful. They don't get carried away. Despite his progress

from Yorkshire to world number one batsman, he has scored 11 test

centuries and plays all three forms of the game. But there are concerns,

he has only rarely led his county and might the captain compromise the

run maker? They don't dwell on that here. It is a big job. But Joe is

that kind of person who will take it in his stride. He is more than

capable of dealing with the pressures of what captaincy brings.

He inherits a team that lost 4-0 in India last year and faces South

Africa in the summer before the Ashes tour. Who knows how he will

do. But we can guess his approach. In the words of his grandfather, mad

keen. Here are four men who could fight

Manny Pacquiao next. Jeff Horn and Terence

Crawford from the US. Unusually, Pacquiao has created

a poll on his Twitter account He has nearly half of

the 45,000 votes so far. You wouldn't be wrong to raise a

slightly cynical eyebrow. What is this about? John Watson is live. Is

this real, will it work? We're wondering. Of those for you mention,

Jeff Horn, the 29-year-old Australian thought he was due to be

fighting Manny Pacquiao. A date, presumably had been set for April.

In Brisbane, one of the biggest fights in boxing history in

Australia. Not only has this fight caused confusion, but one of Manny

Pacquiao's advisers was speaking in Abu Dhabi over the weekend. He had a

press conference and he said that Manny Pacquiao will be fighting in

the UAE next. Not only has that press conference caused confusion,

but this tweet has as well. It appears Manny Pacquiao is destined

to fight someone, but we're not sure who it is going to be. Hadn't he

retired? This was the great debate. He fought a Floyd Mayweather in the

richest boxing bout in history. After that, he felt he had one more

fight left in him. He went on to fight Timothy Bradley. After that he

was supposed to retire. He came out of retirement to fight Jesse Vargas.

Now it seems Manny Pacquiao wants another shot. 67 professional fights

now, Manny Pacquiao. 59 of those winds. He clearly has his eyes on

another. Jeff Horn was thinking it would be him. Who knows? If you find

out, let me know, John. We wanted to show you this. It is a

unique celebration we spotted. This is Corby Town

defender Jason Lee, helping himself to a

fan's pint of cider. His team had just

scored to go 1-0 up. This is what Jason said

about the incident. "After the goal was

scored we all went off to celebrate with Ben,

but a fan had spilled his pint, and another fan had thrown his

pint up in the air." Everyone was celebrating,

everyone was drenched, but I didn't want the spilled pint

to go to waste so I just thought I'd Unlikely to see that any time soon

in the Premier League. We are going to turn to California.

150,000 people have been evacuated because of concerns over the safety

of America burns-macro tallest dam. We will update you on that. The BBC

has found shoppers are being short-changed because of promotions

that have expired. If we see a special offer

on the supermarket shelves, we expect to pay that price

at the till, but that doesn't The gingerbread, they're are on two

for ?3 but it hasn't come off, and the cat food,

the deal was three for ?8. The BBC's Inside Out programme

visited 50 Tesco stores across England and found out-of-date

special offers in 33 of them. At some stores, staff say it's

a recurring problem. And at another store,

a worker blames the error In most stores, workers removed

the label straight away, At this store, the cashier refunds

the difference but doesn't remove the label, so it's still on display

when we go back in the next The fourth cashier

finally removes it. There are obviously major

problems with their control of the special offers,

and it's the special offers that bring customers in,

make people reach for more and perhaps spend a little bit

more than they meant Throughout our investigation,

Tesco did refund the difference when The company wouldn't provide

anyone for interview but after reviewing the BBC's

Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau. They discussed terrorism,

cooperation and refugees. If you are watching outside the UK, it is world

More than 180,000 people in northern California have been told

It's because an overflow channel at the tallest dam in the US

The extraordinary pictures of the water.

The emergency spillway of the tall Oroville Dam

There was gridlock on roads heading out of the town.

These are some of the pictures that have been coming in.

The dam is in California, located on Lake Oroville.

Water levels in the reservoir have risen following heavy rain and snow

Here you can see the main spillway which was close to collapse.

I spoke to Dave Lee earlier from San Francisco and asked him

if the all clear has been given, why are people not going home.

Two reasons. There is a lot of rain expected in the area later this

week. This weekend has been quite sunny camp led to the previous few

weeks, so if anything it is a bit of relief, weather-wise. More rain

expected later this week. But also the spillway, as you mentioned, is

in such a state of disrepair. Literally dropping in bags of rock

to fill this hole but crumbled to pieces when the heavy amounts of

water were gushing down the spillway to try to alleviate the pressure on

the dam. So any signed this may need to be used again in this way, could

be very serious. Although it seems like the main threat that both

emergency plans were looking like they could fail at one point on

Sunday, now it seems that threat has subsided. They have managed to avoid

that. People are seeing it as a lucky escape, the weather held off

this weekend. Had they not, we could have been looking at a devastating

flood in that area. Evacuation order is still in place at the time being,

because of those fears it could not be over just yet. Can you give me

more details on what needs to be done to the dam and how long it

might take? They need to fix it, basically. There is two spillway is

to the left-hand side of the dam. The first is concrete and is

designed to be a big drainpipe that brings water down and disburses it

into the river below in a controlled way. That has been used in the past,

but it has been crumbling because of the weight. They need to get it

fixed, have enough good weather so they can get in and solve this for

the long term. Thank you, Dave. The Syrian government

and its allies are accused today of "deliberate and systematic

destruction" in Aleppo. This is in this report

making the accusations. It comes from the Atlantic Council

which is a prominent think tank It's funded in a range of ways,

including contributions from NATO The report also says that

hospitals were bombed and it provides videos

to support its claims. She's been taking a look

at the report for us. The Syrian regime and its allies

were able to break the opposition's hold on a leper with the use of

siege, indiscriminate bombing in civilian areas, chemical weapons and

targeting infrastructure, including hospitals. Those claims have been

denied by President Assad and his allies, notably Russia. But this

report says it is a deliberate campaign of misinformation. It is

highly critical of the actions of the Syrian government in Aleppo, but

also the role of America. It said the US was left seriously damaged by

the fall of a leper because the US allied opposition was discredited

and as a consequence, the refugee crisis was worsened. It urges a new

strategy from President Trump and his Administration. What it calls

are bolder and wiser approach. This report says that doesn't mean

stepping up of direct military presence on the ground, but instead

the focus should be on protecting densely populated civilian areas and

also ensuring any ceasefire agreement is in force, so those who

violate it have sanctions imposed against them. The conclusion of this

report is the US must learn the lessons of what it calls be in

action in Aleppo, make sure nothing like this happens again.

A draft law in the Philippines means children as young as nine could be

jailed for drug offences. The president supports the proposal. The

Philippine president, he campaigned on a pledge. He said there was a

loophole by criminal gangs and using children to act as careers and they

could ferry drugs all over the country. And because they weren't

responsible because they were under the age of 15, he said he would

change the laws so children as young as 12 could be liable. His allies

have put forward a bill that would make children as young as nine

liable for prosecution for any crime, not just drug crimes. But

there is evidence these criminal gangs are using children? Not much,

actually. Child advocacy say only 1.7% of crimes are committed by

children. Usually they are petty crimes, petty theft and glue

sniffing. There is not a lot of evidence drug gangs are using

children as careers. Does the death penalty fit into this? It is part of

this criminal reform bill that has been put forward. It has already

passed through the Congress and it is now headed for the Senate. It

would reintroduce the death penalty in the Philippines and that would

also lower the age of criminal responsibility to the age of nine.

Because they are intertwined, it would mean a child aged nine he was

found guilty of a crime could face the death penalty, in theory. A lot

of people are outraged by this, but we cannot argue that President

Duterte isn't doing what he said he was going to do when he was elected?

He is often called the Trump of Asia. He campaigned on his extreme

pledges to crackdown on crime. However, the fact this issue has

gone through the Congress has now amplified this issue in the

Philippines. A lot of people are talking about it. It has child

advocates from well-known organisations, who don't normally

speak up on such grand terms. I spoke to the chief representative

from Unicef and she has spoke in passionate terms about the dangers

of putting children to an adult prison system. If a nine-year-old is

arrested in the Philippines after this law is passed, even before they

faced trial, they could face months locked up in the same overcrowded

cells as adult prisoners. The BBC World Service is telling us

more than 7000 people have died during President Duterte's war on

drugs. That is it, thanks for watching. We are back tomorrow at

the same time. Goodbye. Winter is not over yet. But over the

next few days there is a mild prospect. By Monday, it felt like

spring across a part of the UK with some welcome sunshine.
