As It Happens: Wednesday Edition
Part One
Truck Deaths UK
39 bodies are found in a truck container in the south-eastern UK —and one Conservative MP tells us he's certain they were victims of human trafficking.
Rick Chiarelli Vote
A showdown about showing up. Thirteen women have accused an Ottawa city councillor of inappropriate behaviour — and today, council members told him to reappear or lose his job.
Feed the Ducks Bread
There's outrage about a sign in the UK encouraging people to feed bread to the ducks — but our guest says not to worry: Baguettes are their bag.
Part Two
Impeachment: Taylor Testimony
Dozens of Republicans crash a hearing in Washington, yelling about the impeachment inquiry — which makes yesterday's testimony seem all the more significant.
NB Future: Blaine Higgs
New Brunswick's Premier says he heard what voters said on election night — so he's changing his mind and adopting a carbon tax for his province.
Part Three
NL Voting Divisions
A resident of Newfoundland and Labrador says Albertans have been expressing fury at his province online, for voting Liberal. They say that's a betrayal of the oil and gas industry, which employs so many from down East. And our guest says the name-calling has to stop.
Nunavut Winner
We'll talk to Mumilaaq Qaqqaq — the newly-elected MP for Nunavut. She's one of the youngest members of parliament, and the first NDP MP in the territory since before Nunavut was Nunavut.
