As It Happens: Monday Edition

Monday, November 23rd 2015

Part One

Alberta carbon tax
Alberta's government announces its new policy on climate change -- and the CEO of one of the biggest oil company explains why he's supporting it.

Pizza shop owner
Maher Khalil owns a pizza place in Philadelphia -- but when he spoke Arabic to a friend at a Chicago airport, he was almost stopped from getting back to business.

Doo Doo the Clown
A Toronto man is honoured for his courage, after saving two women from a dangerous attacker -- while still in costume as Doo Doo the Clown.

Part Two

UBC complaints
PhD candidate Dmitry Mordvinov has been expelled from the University of British Columbia. He faces allegations of sexual assault, ranging from inappropriate touching to sexual assault. And while several complaints were filed, his accusers say it took UBC far too long to act.

UK police apology
They were together for six years. But now, a British woman feels like the man she loved was never really with her. Because all that time, he was actually an undercover police officer, sent to monitor her activities, and her friends.

Part Three

UK sewer gold
British scientists discover an astonishing amount of the precious metal in an astonishingly unprecious place: the London sewers.

Tanzania miners
One of five miners who endured forty-one days trapped underground in Tanzania -- partly by eating insects and bark -- dies less than a week after being rescued.

Pfizer merger
When Pfizer announces plans to buy Allergan -- the Irish company that makes Botox -- it raises eyebrows in a way Botox usually prevents. And what's good for business may not be good for patients.
