Tonight:
It's called "intelligence" -- but today, it doesn't look too smart. The president of Brazil is demanding answers, after leaked documents show Canada spied on the country's natural resources ministry -- and journalist Glenn Greenwald details the allegations.
The sacred, profaned. To members of the Millbrook First Nation in Nova Scotia, the white bull moose is considered a "spirit animal" -- which is why they're furious it's been shot by non-aboriginal hunters.
Chaos in Cairo. Once again, Egyptian forces open fire at a rally against the military coup, killing dozens -- and a witness tells us what he saw.
The bitter Enda. Irish prime minister Enda Kenny put a lot of energy and political capital in his fight to abolish the country's senate -- but voters did not agree.
Any which way but Lucifer. In a wide-ranging interview, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia makes assorted assertions about his certainty of Satan.
And...they would have preferred just to be framed. Instead, a British couple received a painting as well, in the mail -- and, since it depicts what they call, quote, a "horrid old crone", they'd love to know who hated them enough to send it.
As It Happens, the Monday edition. Radio that knows sometimes you need a palette-cleanser.
