Part 1

G20 CHARGES

A different kind of entrapment. Toronto Police Superintendent Mark Fenton is found guilty of misconduct for ordering the confinement of protesters at the city's G20 Summit in 2010 -- a tactic known as "kettling". 

ECONOMIC TURMOIL AND PAUL MARTIN

Let's get fiscal. With the markets roiling,  the Liberals suggest they'll be stewards of Canada's economic future by deploying a steward of our economic past: former Prime Minister Paul Martin.  

DON ROSS GUITAR

He's got a guitar to pick. Tonight, he's got a bone. Canadian virtuoso Don Ross knows his way around the frets -- including, unfortunately, one big fret: the destruction of his guitar on a cross-Atlantic flight.  

Part 2

CMA FENTANYL DOC

Physician, train thyself. A prominent Nova Scotia doctor diagnoses one of the causes of the fentanyl crisis: "well-intentioned...weak-willed, and under-informed" fellow doctors. 

PIGEON LAKE RICE

No more Mister Rice Guy. An Ontario man explains why he's fighting to stop a wild-rice operation in Pigeon Lake -- while the man behind that operation says he's within his treaty rights.  

GOOD CRY STUDY

According to a new study, there is such a thing as "a good cry". But the good part takes a while.
