As we continue to talk almost every day about allegations of harassment in Hollywood, or in politics, or in media - everyday women continue to come forward with their stories.

Michelle Sacrey Philpott was on her way back home to Newfoundland with her husband after a trip to Cancun, when she arrived at the gate.

We talked about it a bit earlier with Geoff Currier but wanted to bring it back here in case you missed it. Want to say happy 150th birthday to Canada one last time?

A 61 year old “Flat-Earther” named “Mad” Mike Hughes is set to launch himself off in a homemade rocket, made of scrap, in a bit to prove that the earth really in flat. Hughes is a 61-year-old limo driver who’s spent the last few years building a steam-powered rocket out of salvage parts in his garage.

It's a big plan announced with lot of political clout --- both the Prime Minister and the federal social development minister making the same announcement at the same time in Toronto and Vancouver respectively -- and one that promises to make housing rights a human right in Canada.
