As It Happens: The Monday Edition
Part One
Novaya Gazeta Moves
Hard truths. The Novaya Gazeta has endured the murder of its reporters and won a Nobel Prize, but tonight the editor-in-chief of its new European operation says it can no longer operate in Russia -- at least for now.
Somalia Drought
Crisis point. As drought persists in Somalia, the UN's Humanitarian Coordinator for the region tells us conflict in Europe is making things worse -- and innaction now could mean hundreds of thousands of lives lost.
BC Humpback Whale vs Orcas
Valiant effort. A humpback whale fended off an apparent attack by a group of Bigg's orcas this weekend. And while Valiant may have been outnumbered, the whale wouldn't be outplayed.
Clothes-Hanging Record
They've got the hang of it. A father-son duo in the UK has become the world's fastest team of two to hang up ten items of clothing -- and they really beat the pants off the competition.
Part Two
Pro-Wasp Biologist
Frequent fliers. By now we're used to thinking of bees and other pollinators as being under threat, but our guest says we should spare a thought for predatory insects like wasps -- which are potential friends too often mistaken for foes.
FOA: Giant Easter Eggs
In the midst of continued suffering, sales of intricate Ukrainian Easter eggs have been raising relief funds. And that reminded us of the story of a particular pysanky that looms large in the As It Happens archive.
Part Three
Encore: Nishga
Gathering place. At a time of family and community get-togethers, we revisit Carol Off's conversation with Nisga'a writer Jordan Abel, who gathered some of his many musings on identity and belonging in his 2021 book, Nishga.
