Tumbler Ridge, B.C. mourns after mass shooting

As It Happens

About this episode

Canada is stunned and heartbroken, after one of the deadliest mass shootings in the country's history. Yesterday, eight people were killed -- six of them children -- in the small municipality of Tumbler Ridge, BC. The school library was the epicentre of the violence.


We'll find what authorities know so far about what happened. And we'll talk to people in Tumbler Ridge -- including a local pastor -- about the horror and heartbreak that has gripped their community.


It's been a week-and-a-half since Savannah Guthrie's mother Nancy disappeared. And the mystery of her apparent abduction is only deepening.


A new video game by a South African company allows you to conduct heists at some of the fanciest museums in Europe -- so you can steal back African artifacts and return them to their rightful homes. 


The Trump administration has cut thousands and thousands of workers from the civil service. Now, dozens of them have decided to come out from behind the scenes, and run for office.


It never rains but it pours -- and it never doesn't rain. It's true that a lot of British towns are used to fairly regular drizzle. But the town of Cardinham is getting pretty fed up with the weather -- after forty-two consecutive days of rain. Meaning the entirety of 2026 so far.
