Christmastime Stories: Tears and Joy on TV

BTS with CTV News Vancouver

While many families are taking a little time away from work and school to dive into the holiday season, CTV Vancouver's team is still busy gathering local news stories to bring the 6:00 newscast to air every day. At this time of year, many of the stories our viewers watch follow themes of giving or loss, but there are always tales that stand out for the crews bringing them to the air.
BTS with CTV Vancouver host Penny Daflos chats with reporters and producers about devastating Christmas tree fires, families rallying to help others after a tragic loss, "news bingo" and the uplifting actions of strangers that help undo the actions of perennial Grinches preying on the unsuspecting.
