1:30 am
immunity, so religious events, but to call dishonest logos work chanted at that particular event called a song on which the key translates to demanding a separate homeland for the community hall by wreaking up india. now, when these teen, the slogans will be on that at that particular riley. what justin to do. deed was nothing but smiling at this point. it's hard to believe that justin to doesn't know the meaning of these johns because he himself on the stage. welcome back to punjabi himself. justin so will do, very openly has been sheltering. these extreme is set purchase elements on canadian solid, the spies india repeatedly requesting one in canada. um lots to do so. india has very strongly reactive design as well, and fox in depth, some kind of talking to flu math in canada,
1:31 am
and set that this is not going to walk. but justin to has not really understood what angel is going to say despite the very fact that the was and word federal tax and the canadian history have also happened because of the call is sign except which is a plan in 1985 would be open up an avondale clean off of the $300.00 jobs, the athens is on board, $200.00 of them was, couldn't need doing. but despite that, because of his political reasons, he's desperately trying to go to seek community that he has an alliance. remember with just me seem to see that was also protocol of sony recently in an interview with justin to said was that despite relationships going be tough with india? he is helen on finding what the so what do we doesn't know?
1:32 am
obviously there are real challenges, right? now, between canada and india, and to know that there are credible reasons to believe that the agents of the government of india were involved in the killing of a canadian citizen. i'm a canadian soil is a real problem. it's a problem for the rules based ordered and the, and the principles of free open democracies and sovereignty that we stand for. it's also a problem in our relations with india. so using, you know, being in more than the killing of ac separatist leader on canadian sword to now remember justin toodle has not provided any rules whatsoever, but it's not just limited to that. canada has constant even opting india. there are several economists, sony referendums that have been held on the canadian soil, remember canada or the other sea, or also lean to india for meddling in their internal elections. one of these
1:33 am
allegations that justin to do is make you want india. it's only spoiling his relationship with the process going economy in the walls. he is coming across to somebody who at this point is ready to deal with extreme is with radical elements as long as it's serving his political interests. remember that in canada there's a huge population of the community around $800.00 pals and have them look on some digital signs. and at this point, justin pseudo in order to move them, is not only putting india at risk, but also canada. i'm the was by arguing by showing these extreme is set purchase elements while the around. so this is out will be back on the, to the out, the, the,
1:34 am
the, when i 1st moved to rush i, one of the most amazing things i found was the most cool, metro inside pick. the very 1st phrase that i ever learned the russian was doubtful towards our closing vegetation. so what makes this place and so special? what secrets is it hiding to find out? we're going deep under the city with alexander pop off. he's a historian who studies the wonders of the moscow metro the
1:35 am
whole meeting here. this is going to be an excellent adventure for me because i love the metro. so i have to ask for 48 metro stations. that's a lot of stations, but generally it's just a public transport service. it's now on the list of cultural heritage sites. what does a metro that's in use of need to do to become insight? many must go metro stations are underground. palaces when the 1st line was launched in 1935, it was like nothing else in the world at the time. some waste ations in new york, as in london with typical utilitarian transport facilities, bill meant a ferry passengers from a to b and provide you then. so in a profit that the then young soviet, russia had beyond vision to showcase something. nobody else have done. it was truly an underground palace for everyone could on michael's and richly decorated public
1:36 am
space flooded with light and fresh. yeah, it was accessible to all classes across gas station where we are now is a typical example of most good metro architecture. so it's an underground palace, which is what you definitely decorated with. most banks on the ceiling with extensive use of materials like mumbling greenwich mean getting it was, i mean, it was the 1st station to have stainless steel on the columns where it was the epitome of the idea behind the 1st metro line. first, both by which was to show the soviet metro as the best in the world. now we are quite deep underground, but still it's kind of feels lights and airy infections. very well lit down here. how did you achieve this effect? i thought so my goal is to apply a cost guidelines about 40 meters on the ground. so it'd be a talk detect and engineers had studied a deep column type subway station in new york, built in the early 19 se, and re imagined it in a very creative way. they're almost at it. that was the origin of my cost gas stations design. and it is not like we're at the literature at the time described lack of scale as an american style station. people. yep. that was and still is as
1:37 am
far as i know, like i'm no new york subway architecture to speak of except a few individual stations. however, you see this incredible, like listen, state and columns which we used instead of the method pillars built in other stations. that was no main seat because it required a whole lot of different mathematical model. initially this was supposed to be a non broken, single volt and it was meant to be much higher. later they began to calculate the dimensions and realize that without these thick metal strips, the ceiling would cave in like this. and they'd be a disaster. so they the ceiling considerably. yeah, there's a metal structure. they ended up with a station that has very slender and graceful columns. add to that the use of stainless steel on except marble flow, which was like to replace with granite problem and these beautiful most x. so i see that on these columns and arches they have the stainless steel, which is kind of different from the marble. why did you choose to have this type of
1:38 am
finish? the 1970s weren't ever of a violation. long distance flights record speeds, distances and altitudes, stainless steel, evoked images of plains and saplings is a legend about my a call scale. so i'm say the steel, the salvage from sampling, but that's not true. it's just a nice mess where they give the beautiful interior requests and maintenance still needs to be polished so that stays shiny and doesn't rust on nobody's feel like you had about 10 or 15 years ago, it was decided to renovate the station, and the interior was recreated to look exactly like in 1930 a tool. so i've heard that if i stand on this corner vendors standing on that corner and i can hear me from there is that true? we can give it a try. now we're going to try what's sponsored by a tough guy on metro station. it's very clear that i can hear you from all the way
1:39 am
over there. so i understand that there are a lot of precious stones actually in the making of this itself. you've talked about it a little bit before. can you show me so what are we looking at here specifically? this is old and remodel. i can't remember it exact name right now, but it's used in the metro. a lot of it. i've been stainless steel, which we've spoken about at the cross, and this red pond is made of a gym, stone cold onyx. it's very rare that there are no more deposits of it today. they've all been exhausted when they were renovating the station. they repaired the mobil particles, and they had to go back to the old onyx mines. we stopped operations now. learn how to work with all next. again, a couple of these fine details about the default. the floor was completely redone. level was replaced with granite filled up with a design state exactly the same this station as
1:40 am
a cultural heritage side. so any work here is considered restoration when you come to use different technology, different colors and so on. they have to be very careful and work on the architectural supervision to make sure the appearance of the station remains consistent with the original other is all it certainly beautiful. and also we have some mosaics here and what's the idea behind this? i mean, it's so intricate, there's so much to take in, talk to me when you look up, it's hard to miss now, but it's easy to just walk on by talk to me about the most x. do i? it's a boy. yes, it was a genius idea. for if the ceiling was low, the station would look impressive. right, so the architects came up with the idea of these terms and put mosaics inside the celebration balances today, nika, made sketches for them. the most acts themselves were crafted in leningrad, inserted in the doings when fully assembled. yep. they show what the sky over the soviet union looks like in the course of a day. what a typical day in
1:41 am
a. so it'd be a country is like response activities, industrialization, aviation, our shooting, there's a power she would just in this one database for it was a popular, spoilt at the time of the product. and it was a power issue, talent, and nearly every pock with people to give it a try. okay, so i know that there is a lot to say, let's go and see another station showing. yep, let's go to most about sky the . so this is incredibly fascinating, this is no, this will both kind of station it's incredibly beautiful. it's incense we have the
1:42 am
stained glass panels of something that you wouldn't expect to see down here in the metro station. in fact, you expect to see stained glass windows somewhere, perhaps in a church. so if you don't mind telling me why is this so beautiful, what is this all about? it's about a well effect of people coming here. so your oldest jewel dropping duty instead with round eyes, it's true that it feels like being in an underground church. this stained glass technology was borrowed from catholic churches, which had stained glass windows. these stained glass panels were manufactured in riga by local office when you were familiar with stained glass with back in the 1950s at the property came up to the technology was virtually unknown and the rest of russia because christian orthodox churches don't have such windows. they used old stuff, piles of glass that they, what do you think thought, according to the chief design, a woman use that glass for his magnificent flux about because in fact, this station could have been quite different,
1:43 am
tied to the original design cold for the use of uranium glass, which had natural fluorescence and gloves green in the document. however, the nuclear program was in full swing and the 1950s over the rainy and was considered a strategic was also. so they decided against allocating uranium glass for this project is that our company, the office to make do with other materials. so they decided to use stained glass with daylight lamps behind it. what is the story behind these panels specifically? well, i'm used to seeing them in churches that tell stories. i'm not used to seeing them down under ground in the metro of what is the story behind these panels pacifically and what are their meaning? the main idea behind the architectural design of the metro is to remove the feeling of being cramped in an aerospace that's 40 meters deep on the legs of rock open upwards. the photo command stations must be full of air and space and line. we have let me on here we have these panels which create the illusion of windows looking into a st. the lead from behind with daylight lamps,
1:44 am
even though they didn't think of it that way. back in the 1950s. basically, it feels like a catholic church because the techniques applied to the same as that was used for making stained glass in churches. this panel is an abstract one. different shapes filess, but some so, and some of the panels have 5 pointed stars at the top of those have medallions depicting different peaceful professions, such as steel work, or what artist or an architect these modality. i'm celebrate the peaceful endeavors at the soviet state of the victory in world war 2. as i said before, initially they wanted to you to uranium glass but weren't able to obtain that. it was easy, however, to obtain gold for gilded brass ornaments from pick on. so they got hold of some gold for decorating this station and come to most guy on the central line, which is another deal of the must go metro. is this real world? i'm not sure how much of it is left, but officially this is guilty for us. so i see something over here that i want to
1:45 am
take a look at. do you mind walking around here and showing me what we have? let's take a look. maybe we'll see something interesting. so this is very impressive and when i saw it, it reminds me of the madonna and the sistine chapel. and tell me about this music and what are we looking at here? no, cuz i'm fucked up this moves and it looks like i'm, i don't, i was just wanting to protection. but now the version claims this woman looks like the wife of bush can. it was the architect of never slip, but sky and his belief to be multiplied his wife in this mosaic canal or provide them all but yeah, the that is it, may, this woman does look like the sustain ladonna who is holding a baby in her arms. this station was completed in 1952 a year before stollins desk. and originally it was a portray to sell in a buffer. no doves and the woman's figure was a little different than you said he had laid a cruise. jeff folded this mosaic to be removed, possibly hated it that much. however, metro employees just hit it behind
1:46 am
a false will to preserve it, put in the chief designer of the station who created all of those things across panels as well as the mosaic. we did this one twice, the tweaks the fingers of the women and the baby, and remove style in space, replacing it with doves and the golden branch. everything as a story. so the moscow metro has kind of developed its own culture even, and there's even a station where they have official concerts there. talk to me a little bit how this culture has developed. this, this in the years the most of the metro with a closed organization with find it restrictive access. over the last decade however, it has developed an increasingly tube and culture and has been hosting numerous events, performances and exhibitions. you could call it an emerging subculture, i'd say the metro has done a tremendous amount of work in the last 15 years, also to become more open and perceptive to its passengers. it's the right thing to do, and a highly commendable effort. i have to ask there's legends about the
1:47 am
mile, sco metro, there's legends about anything that has such a history and culture and maybe even about ghosts or a friend somethings that role the area. and is this true and maybe have you had your self any encounters with ghosts of the metro metro system is a huge living organism, a mechanical organism from every night, thousands of people go down these tunnels to do maintenance and repair works. so perhaps fortunately there's no room left for ghosts, but at least we have beautiful legends that we can tell to as to visit the station among others, the a lot of man. good evening. thank you for meeting us there. i'm uh,
1:48 am
looking forward to seeing the metro and where you can show us around and i'm pleased to meet you here. i'm going to tell you about the jump into the metro try and drive up. all right, let me pull on the the so some of my questions might seem a little bit weird, but frankly i don't know how a metro operates. so tell me how this works. for example. um, can you turn the train in the wrong direction and collide with another train? is that even possible here? in this con, happen in the most of the metro drains authorized by the drivers. and there's also automatic controls in place because centralized dispatches center has been set up in moscow, where traffic control operation supervisor the drivers will come on into the movement alone metro training. so even if you have a go for being a dr of files to apply the brakes and the situation collisions while the car as the
1:49 am
trains will stop automatically calculating just returning the train in the wrong direction. it's not possible either towards the end it's gone haven't even due to human error because everything is, or what you might say. you know stuff somebody when i mean we're stop right now, but when we get moving a, how fast on average does this train move? the maximum speed of the trains in the most good metro is 18 kilometers an hour speed depends on the route the ranging from $60.00 to $70.00, or even 40 kilometers file, but no more than an 80 kilometers power. so we know that some countries are already using driverless training systems, but to me it seems like there has to be some situations where you need to have a driver in that position. what are your thoughts on this move? so having like a mechanized system, you may be aware that the interval between trains is the shortest and the most of the metro about 90 seconds. of course, the pros as of introducing drive of this train operation is on going,
1:50 am
but it's not like we're seeking to completely get rid of train drivers at once. this may happen at some point in the future, but it's not the ultimate goal. so when i'm standing on the platform, i'm always scared to fall under the tracks. what happens is someone actually falls under the tracks. what do you do? what can you do? and that sort of a situation inside the chain draw that has a clear procedure of a son situations. if a person falls onto the truck. so the 1st thing the driver must do is stop the train it. so in gauges the emergency break, then the drive that notifies the traffic control that operates up where the person is on the track and submit a request to turn off the electricity on the 3rd rail, then the drive a choice of the passenger to come down. and then the he's got to train full of people and he can open the tools to let them go just yet, because the train is not fully arrived at the platform, then he goes out of the drive. his cap dice scares some technical steps and goes to inspect the track and look for the person. from that point, there were 2 possibilities that he can remove the person from the trace themselves,
1:51 am
or he cause the emergency technical service and the rest of the change. when they arrive, they may even lift the train call up to get the person from under it. so if the driver can manage the situation himself, it's usually over in 5 to 7 minutes. if the emergency services needed on the side, it could beat. so seo, 40 minutes, would it all depends on how bad the passenger is. quote, onto the train. situations can be very different. you've been doing this a long time. so you've seen a lot of changes over the years. let's say in the past 10 years, what has changed about how the metro operates in new technology and what happens for me in these last 10 years, almost everything has changed. i mean, the only contrives of a huge number of new stations and tunnel assembled for the state of the art systems have been introduced to the monitor the driver's work and makes a jump easy for example. and every drive is kept now has a so called n t sleep system, the model, it says the drive a state in real time so much and can determine whether the drive that has been
1:52 am
distributed or both fell asleep and so on. there are systems that make the train break when it is entering a station. suppose you drive into a station, a new files upright. the machine will stop the train at the 1st cause don't position and it will be so smooth. the passengers will have no idea of as something is off, then why do you feel how we're breaking? now? this is the work of a human driver, but with organization it would have been just the same. so there are many systems in your mind. what is the most difficult part of your job? i wouldn't say being a trained driver is difficult. i'd say it because creative as a being and the drive is kind of, it is a level, a huge responsibility. you said you're driving a train with people and it defies any must feel it with you until i bought a a controlling the train is what i'm playing a musical instrument. it's not that it's difficult is just the responsibility the you must feel more. yes, you must learn a lot and know a lot to become
1:53 am
a try and drive a body's not like is too complex and it's loading trains, a very easy to control. you can take a person with no prior training. anyone that's old and teach them how to control the training in 5 days or in a week. i mean like, controlling the train is only a small part of being a trained drive that way. more than likely, the core skill required in this job is handling nonstandard situations. ok, whatever may arise, you must be ready to solve the problem quickly and above all, safely some of them. and this is what this job is really about. and so earlier i asked if someone were to fall off the platform, what would you do? but what would i do if i fell down there from a passenger's perspective? uh yup. oh, stop by saying that you can avoid fully onto the trace. if you stay at a safe distance from the edge of the platform, when, if you don't run at the metro when you're drunk. but if i look and see what i'm lucky enough to for, to the track senior, your actions will depend on this scenario. your in, if you can already see
1:54 am
a train approaching, you must of lie down in this between the tracks. we go ahead what, who wants to train is 100 percent safe. as the pit is deep enough to keep you safe from the moving train of them. but if you cannot see the train yet, you may turn around and go to the head of the platform where you'll see a sun with the number 8 that marks the stuff in position for the 1st call of the train is all you can use the digital clock yeah, above the tunnel as your point of reference, i'm let me stay that way for a police officer, secuity officer, just all duty station officer that will bring you back onto the platform using a safe way. something couple of people that just make sure that you don't try to climb onto the platform yourself. what for them? it's very dangerous, as you may accidentally touch the 3rd row, which has a high voltage. so you don't want to touch it. so the,
1:55 am
so you need something new, this is different. it's not like the other stations we saw that are very intricately detailed, the ones from the past. tell me, what's the idea behind this? it still looks fantastic. but what's the idea here? what i believe we're witnessing the bus of a new type of architecture in the moscow metro especially, but it's new rapid transit line called the big circle line. i'm opening up the teams of walk a tech to lift on dozens of projects. and they all used different approaches and you kind of go as a result, we can now see one of a kind designs that many of the new stations you've got. every single one of them is unique in its own way. and that's what matters like this station risk out about the way it's an example of how fairly simple elements such a stainless steel in patches, basic dealing with we have seen use by the architects to create quite
1:56 am
a remarkable ontario. this is no longer an underground. you a palace, it's a functional space which also looks great from within my view, at least a few. now we know that a lot of the lines, several of them go underneath waterways underneath some of the river. and they're very deep down to about 20 stories down in some cases. um, how do they build metro's like this? a bunch. i would probably be the 1st. they dig a vertical shock of vertical tunnel that's about 17 feet is deep. and from there, they build a system of temporary underground galler. we used to reach the in them down to the points of the future underground metro station. then they take the main tunnel with the help of a tunnel boring machine and finish the works with manual labor project cameras, explosives, you know, the circle blasting method to bend. so they clear oldest space here and it's a lot of hard work. that's true. i thought it and you'll write some of the tunnels with dug out under the moscow river. for example, the negative skis that on the stations tunnel. it was also built by a t b m. it's
1:57 am
a tying tested, reliable technology industry standard, but of course, there's a lot of water in the process. well, about that water. so i mean, we know that there are underground rivers. we know that there is ground water. how do you protect the metro from being flooded? how do you keep everyone safe? of course, the metro tile. the waterfront during construction. waterproofing allows a built also this very shape of the tunnel of a cylinder. and she was additional protection from water. it looks like an umbrella, or in fact with water was found to run off the sides with drain system, so installed to channel it further. now, we've seen a lot, there's a lot to the metro system. what is it beyond what we see the guess? so in users of the metro wouldn't even believe or wouldn't even know about if i was going to be the commute to see use on average, about 40 to 50 percent of everything that's being built here. i'll walk you. dempsey is also to legal systems such as electric substations,
1:58 am
ventilating systems drain systems, smoke exhaust system, some of the main kinds of power lines. there is, in fact a special tunnel build for all the power lines that surface station, somebody minutes concealed behind the station wall. to the metro is a very complex structure of the customers, only see a part of the call. they see the interior design april, which some glimpses of the tunnels during the ride. with a new metro is a complex mechanism that requires a lot of skill and precision to make it function like clockwork and be safe for transporting large numbers of people. safety measures are extremely important to you, especially fire safety. each station is equipped with a smoke exhaust system of voice fire alarm system. the station master has a dashboard that receives a feed from c c t, v cameras and input from fire and smoke detectors. so any final has that can be identified immediately. my goal is to, to ensure the safety of all passengers and all these systems naturally take up some space inside the metro stations. even though they usually hide behind what everyone
1:59 am
sees when they use the metro most. the metro is certainly a fascinating place. and in the past 10 years, it's grown one and a half times in your estimation as somebody who knows, what do you see for the next 100 years for the must go metro queen to the philip house. that's an interesting question and of course the metro will continue to grow . well, we have new lines and stations will be built, but i put in a 100 years teleportation technology will be invented to enable faster transportation with the folks the with moscow is growing today. a metro right across the city, despite being the fastest transport option available, this can take over an hour. but again, the metro system is expanding and i hope this trend will persist with that i was outing in many, most ations, which passengers will appreciate the phone off guard. there's always room for criticism. but moscow is getting new beautiful stations. and that's great. triple thought. on of the
2:00 am
sole source of his, our powers arrives please crash. let's do this. as you joined the american pro positive demonstration, you know, as the caps, demonic, and supplies with the as well to hear prohibits phase with this other says that self contained western democracies. awesome. compromising their own values as important videos government because israel's interest dropped.
