News quiz: January 7, 2017
On New Year's Day a whole new whack of laws and regulations took effect across Canada. From pet cosmetic surgery to peewee barrel racing, learn the rules that might change the way you live.
Panellists play our favourite holiday game: BeanBoozled. We join thousands of kids across North America who had to guess (and taste) whether their candy is barf or peach-flavoured.
Who are Alexa, Siri and Kuri? We quiz the panel about the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show. Watch as an Amazon Echo accidently helps a toddler find a NSFW website.
This week's panel:
- Grace Lynn Kung is currently on screen in the blockbuster film Miss Sloane
- Ashley Botting can be seen in the popular kids show Odd Squad
- Aurora Browne is one of the stars of CBC's hit comedy Baroness von Sketch Show
